So when are we going to start thinking about tracks, anytime soon? I'm assuming Los Santos GP will be in there at least...
Also, what about the cars? Things that we need to think about, could be useful for suggestions...
I suggest we use vehicles that specifically aren't normally used, otherwise it will be just ANOTHER endurance race series, do you know what I mean?

I'm acctually considering not using LSGP or North Loop at all, i want to use more unknown races from the members of this community.
As for cars you will see different cars troughout the races, and i am going to try and find those rare gems that are nice to drive but maybe not that competetive in their specific classes.

Buccaneer, Buffalo S and Jester spring to mind

Could I suggest the rat loader and surfer. They're almost never used and I know the rat loader isnt bad to drive once you learn how to use it but I haven't driven the surfer fully upgraded but it's a really cool car and I would like to race in it.

I'd actually love to drive that a long distance...

I said 'I assume we're using LSGP and North Loop' with the secret hope that we wouldn't actually be using them, so this is good. Where cars are concerned, I know that there are a lot of sedans that have been forgotten but are nice to drive, for example the Karin Intruder. I'm not sure about everyone else but I have barely any money in GTA so I kind of need to start buying the cars now :')

Just worth a note that if you use custom tracks they aren't going to be the same on both gen's as most people have made modifications to their next gen tracks. I suggest Vespucci Graveyard Humps made by blueeyedmalice, simply a mix of 3 good rockstar tracks that is simple to recreate on psn.
Im all for the jester idea. Personally wouldn't use the rat loader as I think the main GT2 complaint aside form lag was that most of the cars were horrific to drive ( FQ2, Dilletante) So I'd suggest something that is nice to drive, but not necessarily fast. The primo in the sedans is lovely to drive, the Jackal in Coupés is nice. Keep the suggestions going though. If I may suggest multi class idea, what about using cars close together in performance, so no GT1 and 2. Just have for instance Feltzer vs Jester. socred separately but racing closely together. A fast jester driver will be very close to the lead of the whole thing so it could be very interesting. Just an idea. Let me know opinions.

The Jester is a nice car to drive (when you get over the understeer) it just takes a bit of getting used to so we should definitely use it at some point, very underrated. Sorry if I'm missing the point, I might just be being stupid, but how would they be scored differently if there's no effective GT1 and 2 classes? Would we just not be calling them GT1 or 2 because they're too close in performance? Also, do you mean to have some sort of scoring multiplier depending on one car compared to the other? For example: Feltzer score multiplier = 1.0, Jester score multiplier = 1.5? Obviously not exactly like that, but do you mean something along those lines? I agree though, it would be a cool idea to have two different vehicles but not two definitive classes.

I agree though, it would be a cool idea to have two different vehicles but not two definitive classes. Yeah sorry that wasn't overly clear. They are effectively gt1 and 2 because the performance is better on the feltzer officially. But the cars are very closely matched so it seems unfair to call a jester a GT2. Just a simple Group 1 and group 2 of drivers. Possibly have them switch one week to another so the drivers in both classes have chances at the slightly superior car and slightly inferior car. Seems a good way of determining overall speed. So say week 1, driver group 1 drives feltzers, group 2 in jesters. Week 2 group 2 in dominators group 1 in blades. Do you see where i'm going with this ? Gives a multiclass feel without the indignity of being lapped 8 times and could create some great races and upsets.

I would love to race on PS3, but I need some specific times because I'm still in school, and of course the time zones issue...

All though the feltzer is faster, it may be interesting as the jester may turn out to be more consistent and it could be a close race. Also it means that instead of just racing against people in your class, it allows you to challenge yourself by beating people in the other class.
