I'd like to sign up for the qualifying round. Time to start discussing tracks to use? On the 360 they have LSGP with supers as their final track. I would agree with this 100% as our crews "Home" circuit. For the Rockstar created circuit I think it's best we stick to the Broughy Verified selections, unless anyone knows of a secret Rockstar track that caters to us racers perfectly that we are yet to discover? The standout choices for me are: - Thrills in the Hills from BV1. - Vespucci Dreams from BV2. Personally, my vote goes to Thrills in the Hills with the Coupes class and would be 8 laps. Thoughts on using The North Loop? I'd also like to throw this in the mix Sandy Shores Grand Prix. This is one of my best creations and would be perfect for a Sports class race but would need a lot of laps (12) to take it over the 14 mile threshold. It's kind of a mini version of Doodles Alamo Grand Prix from BV5 which I also think is a great shout for one of the spots.

I have already decided on the races we'll be using... in my opinion LSGP and Northloop had to be in there because we recently used those for the endurance races so they should be well practiced by those that entered... and as for Cutting Coroners... because its in a BV it should be played regularly... thanks for your input though! its really appreciated

I think choosing Cutting Coroners is a bold move. Everyone practices that tracks. You need people who hotlap it often and get perfect laps there all the time, cuz other crews do have people who do that.

From what I've read on forums of other racing crews, they all do CC. If VCCM has a racing division like they say, it's very likely they have some very good people for CC.

I assumed it would be a bit more of a debate between people wanting to take part as opposed to the team captain just deciding straight up. LSGP and North Loop are great choices. I would agree with the others in that CC may not be the best of choices (maybe that's because it's one of my weaker tracks) and making strategic decisions based on not only our crews strengths, but also the strengths and weaknesses of other crews that we challenge or get challenged by. I'll stand by the decisions you have made though and will be taking part in the qualifiers. Maybe next time everyone that wants in can post their choices and then the captain can choose/overrule decisions from that shortlist?
