I like the idea of using stock cars too especially since buying a fully modded Coquette or Banshee would kill my bank account.

Yeah I think I prefer stock too. The only problem I can see is that sometimes, rarely and probably down to connection issues, you only have a short period of time to select your car and it could make getting the colour for your team difficult. This is less of a problem if you have a pre-painted custom car since all you need to do is click A, or move across a car or two if you have several custom vehicles in that class. Obviously the car colour is a minor issue but the wrong car really messes things up. Again, we'll see what the general consensus is but currently we're leaning firmly towards stock.

Hmm ok this is awkward. Before @kelevera51x 's comment I would have said that Redbeard9295 and I were fairly close. Especially based on the playlist we did other day. I wouldn't have called myself a particularly good driver before but maybe I'm putting myself down idk. It's all opinion based after all. In terms of the race, perhaps it would be better if the quicker drivers such as Redbeard9295 and Meh RYAN went in the coquettes class and the true novices drove banshees. I guess I'll have to throw my hat into the coquette ring :/

This sounds like fun. I am not sure that Laguna Seca Remake is the best track for this though. I think you might want a longer track for an endurance race like this.

happyponypants Yeah I've actually been toying around with the idea of this track in my head over the past few days. I did some testing the other day and the fact that it's a fairly low speed track meant that both cars were getting very similar lap times. The start finish straight doesn't seem long enough for the coquette to fully utilise it's superior top speed. The cars were getting about 1.13 in my hands per lap. I was thinking maybe the Monaco gp remake track though I'm unsure of its length. A wider difference between vehicle performance should really be happening too to get the proper multi-class feel. I was thinking maybe the three pegassi cars in super with three teams instead if two. Just my thoughts at the moment.
