TCR Vintage Trans Am Season 2

10PM BST Fridays starting Aug 29.

Same cars, same build, same fun...

The Mustang was great last season but I think I'll be having a go in the Challenger this season.

I'm not sure which car I am running yet. They're all good, which makes it a tough choice, even though I don't really think that there's a "wrong" choice either.

Talking to Stan, and he'd like this one to go the Pitlane route rather than TCR.

Fingers crossed.

Looking for a teammate...

Jabber, Paul, Brad, are you guys going to do this series?

^ Looks like i am FINALLY teaming up with Erebus in a series.     

Haha yeah
Can't believe it hadn't happened yet

Actually, I think we signed up as a team before in something, but I don't think that you made a race.   

Wasn't it S1 of this?

That was me and Paul.

oh yeah
wait, it was utes, yeah?

Utes, yeah.

I go and set up a series based on an Australian series and you miss the whole thing   

Wait
Wasn't I with broom in the Utes? Because we ran the two Coopers cars. I just remembered
Argh this is going to kill me haha

Just gotta sweeten up the missus first! before I pop the question, so ill let u know soon! lol, if you don't hear from me im dead! (or still sweetening the honey)

Jabbers, I have teamed up with Erebus... but Paul doesn't seem to have found anyone yet. You guys could take away the top honors.

Brad... I tested a few cars at Road America last night. Played with the downforce, gears and diffs. I thought I would come here saying "Cuda", but really liked the Camaro.

I did the Cuda last year
Was great but impossible to drive because of the hood scoop in the way

I'm going to rerun the Challenger and 71 Mustang tonight and see what sticks. Doing all my testing at Road America, as that is my worst track on the schedule... this gives me the best car on my worst track (cuts my losses) and more seat time on my worst track (hoping experience helps)

Ok cool
Well I'm easy with any car
I can run the Cuda if you want to, nonproblem, just thought I'd share my thoughts, but no real issue

My issue is I found it to be less consistent than the Camaro.

Ah ok

I didn't get around to testing last night, spent a little time in the S12 Ferrari, which I finally hit a 1:51.9

nice!!
I tried the Camaro and I love it, I did a 2:18.9 most laps were in the 19s though (Serbring) with minimum downforce it seems to work well,

what times have you been getting?

I have only tested at Rd America, and cannot remember tthe times. But the Camaro was consistently on pace with the absolute best lap I got in the Cuda, and outran the Cougar on the straights.

With more downforce, I'd imagine the Camaro to be pretty good on the other tracks, but know the Cougar is good on the other tracks.

ok im in! ill go as privateer just in case I have to duck out! question is....javelin....or cougar? they seem to be least picked so far! Ive only tested the javelin so far, with no setup on sebring low 2.19s, trouble is the build isn't coming out with the right stats so ill have to triple check it later!
