    If you are looking for track suggestions, we have found SSR5, trial mountain, Deep Forest, Autumn Ring and Brands Hach Indy to be good for close racing. Red Bull Ring might be worth a look too.

    Yeah thats cool, but again I would rather the Golf R :)

    Can I suggest if thats the case, running drifferent typres of drive train aswell? insted of being just FWD, but also FR, AWD, MR ?
    They all drive differently and some drivers perfer other drive types to others... Will mix it up abit

    I would love to see like a Manufactor series like the ISC cup, but with the European? or more maybe?
    Would love to see a different types, like BMW 1 series vs Golf R vs Megane RS vs MPS 3 vs Focus ST vs Merc vs whatever? Something huge with a large amount of cars to pick from... would take work to get a series like that together but would be awesome!

    Could be a future offering! This series is just a quick throw together to fill a gap I saw in the calendar!
    I do like your idea though. As you say, would take a bit of work as no doubt there would need to be a bit of equalisation done, but it could be a really fun series to do.

    I'll do some testing for this over the weekend and try to get a firm car list in place soon.
    Anyone is free to join and test some cars out!
    I might go a bit radical on the track listing, try include venues that aren't that popular or get the cold shoulder a bit!

    only 1 issue, the Focus ST is going to be severely handicapped if 5th gear is ever required.

    Most of the tracks will be shortish in length anyway so we don't get bored 'thundering' down any main straights!

    @leeboy910 If you get this run and won before the 5th of October, the winner will earn themselves a BJH Memorial Race of Champions grid spot.
