TURN 2015 Virtual Endurance Championship

Hey Dark, Can i get the 3rd spot in the LMP2? I ask for it back when you announced this...

*updated OP to include AIRAKITH in LMP2*

Okay so it is officially updated now, LMP teams are complete, however I now need 2 guys for GT, anyone willing to sign up please post in here

*EDIT* Since we are allowed 2-4 drivers per GT team, I have decided for the time being to merge the GT teams into 1, now we have a Team of 4 for the GT team, however for the 6 hour events only 3 of you are allowed to race while the one guy will come into a reserve mode. 5 of the 6 races on the Calendar are 6 hour events, so one person will have to sit out at least 2 races. Please discuss that amongst yourselves

"Drivers this Friday 5th will be the first VEC Test day all drivers are welcome to come and go as you please , we will not be running a specific track we will test on multiple tracks this will be a good oportunity for you to test your car choices before registration.

So if you are available Friday 21.00 BST 16.00 EST please post below or if space is available on the night contact me via xbox live" 

From F4H Trash.  If any of the GT guys are available would be a good chance to do some testing.

I don't think I can at that time. However, my testing shows the Aston to be the most stable of the cars. The RUF can do pretty well with small tweaks but can be a bitch under breaking. The BMW seems very twitchy to me. The Merc was good but not as much as the Aston IMO. The McLaren is quick and pretty good but not as stable as the Aston.

My preference:
1. Aston
2. McLaren/RUF
4. Merc

GT Team has settled on the Aston Martin V12 Vantage.

COUNT ME IN...

Do we know if TURN is letting the Bentley in? I haven't tried it yet but would be down to run that if it's good.

While the series is still guaranteed to go on, there are still no dates announced yet as during the 2 test sessions, the lobby crashed multiple times with multiple hosts no matter how many people were in the lobby.

Kinda worries me a little bit, they need to get this fixed before I would say...August because then by that time people may get fed up with it and migrate back to Forza once FM6 comes out. People won't mind driving a considerable amount of fewer cars if the Multiplayer is gonna be at least workable/manageable. But at the same time, if you have M$ backing your servers like T10 does...you can still produce good servers.

Here's hope to this series getting started before it's to late

so cliche

nope just almond

Just did the post for a race number. I would've posted it sooner, but I was out of country on vacation.

Update 6/28/15

Still no word on when/whether or not this will get off the ground, once again they held a test lobby for practice and it went BOOM!, thus pissing off TURN officials and whatnot, they are gonna do something on FM5 but are not 100% sure yet what are they gonna do. Seems like PCARS is falling out of love with the TURN members

Isn't there supposed to be another patch coming out here shortly for pCars that's going to correct some of these issues?

Yes Family but correcting the issues and being able to hold a lobby when it's peer to peer is a massive difference, they can give us all the patches, crazy glue and duct tape in the world, one time the host's internet goes BOOM!, the whole lobby will go BOOM!

Church.

Update 8/8/2015:

There is still no word on whether or not this series will kick off on Project Cars. With them announcing Project CARS 3.0 patch they are gonna run 1 more stress test on the game by running a lobby, if the lobby fails once again then the series will be postponed until the arrival of Forza Motorsports 6. The Patch/Stress test are all depending on launch date. So I will once again post updates as the weeks go on

Update: 8/20/15

"All TURN events that were supposed to be ran on Project CARS will be shifted until Forza 6 due to the lack of quality servers that SMS has given us. We deeply apologize for this inconvenience but it is the only thing that TURN can do at this current moment, we are overly excited to start TURN off once Forza 6 comes out and hoping that our great members will stay along for the ride through this difficult time"

Yeah...there you have it, PCARS is officially OUT as TURN's official game, FM6 is IN
