Time Attack 2012

[pablo]

Pro Extreme is basically for the tuners, like RCM, RSE etc.

[IWANT1]

Sounds a bit diluted/confusing that makes three club classes then!

[pablo]

Club class has for several years been split by drive train.

Just 3 days left for full season applications to be in. So hopefully will start to find out who the competition are:D

Some early testing of the SVM GTR for the 2012 season.

Things are looking like it's going to be a good season and busy. This is a list of entries for 2012, although the majority are ohw (one hit wonders - the odd round or two).
Some interesting cars on the list and it seems like 600bhp is the going rate for club class:eek:

Any idea why the Hulk is only in Pro and not Pro Xtreme Ultra Super-dooper? With around a month to go, it doesn't seem that busy mate. 35 cars, many of which have no clarified class or entry commitment and that's across four classes?

Not having a pop at you, the series or the organisers by the way.

[IWANT1]

From that list guys who are you up against?

[A2ON]

Bit worried as we ( the forge motorsport vxr ) are not on that list !

[pablo]

No idea why the Hulk is in pro class. It does seem as if a few are pitching themselves in a class below where they could compete.

We will be up against it bigtime.

Personally I see no glory or satisfaction in entering any competition that you KNOW you should win. Might as well go out and buy a trophy be a lot cheaper.
