Jontti500 (as well as all fellow racers competing in this event), I wanted to give you an update on the tracks that I have submitted. -As far as the concern with an excessive amount of checkpoints goes, well unfortunately, there's not much I can do about that. The two tracks are very long. GSD Rally has 48 checkpoints and is roughly 3.5 miles long. Offroad Endurance has 55 checkpoints and is roughly 5.5 miles long. I can say that I've tried to place my checkpoints with precise care. Checkpoints are used to indicate an upcoming turn and a straight checkpoint is used to signify a gap in the track (as in, there's not an entire mile between one checkpoint and another). -Sorry if you've already voted but (if you do decide to vote for one of my tracks), vote carefully! GSD Rally tends to have more open spaces (after the initial hairpin turn). Offroad Endurance mainly consists of narrow spaces, so overtaking on this track will be quite an ordeal!

Well I believe touring cars and the mixed endurance race were held on the same day at different times. So it is feasible to work around another event.

^ What Parks said. How about doing it this coming weekend? As far as I can see, both Saturday 13 th and Sunday 14 th are free. I know the poll for the tracks runs until the 14 th but you can take the results whenever you like really. Give it until tomorrow, use that result, and then we race this weekend? Oh and also, Are you going to limit the number of each of the available cars? If so can I have the Rebel please?

Can i suggest the Bifta and Dune Buggy for the cars. They are smaller and will make for a fast pace race with harder to control cars. It is mostly full throttle everywhere is slow vehicles.

Well up to know we have 12 members so teams of 3 wont work i liked having the teams of 4 we did on a different endurance race we did so how about three teams of 4?
And an event like this has to have the sandking in so how about the sandking and Dune buggy as the cars??
Or would the consensus prefer the dune buggy and bifta as the cars

Personally, the Sandkings are gonna be way too big to have a proper race (as mentioned in previous posts). I would prefer the dune buggy and bifta because that would be faste paced and more exciting

Kinda sucks you have to buy the bifta but the dune buggies get off cheap cause they have no mods and therefore means you just use em stock
