[Motor City Hamilton]

Thinking about starting a MX-5 Cup in Gran Turismo 5. Friday or Saturday nights around 10 pm eastern time. The game really only allows a handful of restrictions, so everything else will be open.

Power 207 (the real MX-5 cars are around 200)
Weight 1100kg (real cars are 1147)
Sport Soft Tires
No skid recovery
No active steering
No ASM
TCS open
ABS open

All other mods legal, only because they cannot be restricted. Don't care how you meet the power number. The MX-5 comes stock in the game at 1100 kg so no weight reductions.

Any interest?

If not, I may open it up to being an improved touring style event. Open to all cars that fit within 207 hp, 1100 kg and sport soft tires. I will have to look at other cars like the Honda Civics to see if they can even make this minimum weight. May have to lower it to include more cars and allow heavier ones to tune down to it?

www.tunerspits.com is sponsoring a "not-so-spec-miata" championship with very similar settings to those above using the 2007 MX-5 in Gran Turismo. These are some really fast and very serious online racers including some real mazda racers.

The races are run Sunday Night around 10pm Eastern and prequalifying is necessary to run in the top 3 divisions.

I got my but* handed to me the first week at Monza.....

I'd be interested assuming we're talking about using the PS3 here.
