Best hurry up and get the ol ratings up :D

Oval is sitting alright, road needs a little work. But both are over 3, considering they we're in the mid to low 2's same time last week

Ah, I was wrong then. I thought it'd be on GPL's ten year anniversary.

So glad to be out of the rookie class :)

Great to see it go public so soon, i thought the general public would have to wait for about another 4 odd months.

So.... is that a picture of the DP-01 steering wheel accompanying the notice about the launch?

Fingers crossed then! It'd be a good poster car for A level. And escpecially if they can get a Cup car in for the oval series it should attract a lot of interest.

Well Mark, what are the odds of Long Beach, and the DP-01 being released on the public release day? 100/1, 200/1, bang, theres a gorilla on the table.

Yeah, they're photo's. I don't think we'll see driver hands any time soon. Certainly not that detailed :)

I've been craving a street circuit. I'm a bit surprised Long Beach isn't available already, it was the first track they showed their scanning off with.

Naaa, I think we showed a few ovals before that, Irwindale for sure. Also Silverstone and VIR were shown (long) before it.

Hmm, I'm sure the photo of the scanning team at the roundabout was one of the early pics. Must have missed the others.

So what's the Panoz like? :)

I've only been focusing on my Road SR - now 4.44. I guess I'd better get the oval to at least 3 as well?

It doesn't take much and the content to do it is free, so you might as well get enough for the D license at least:)

I've even bought the LM just to make sure I progress to C license on ovals. I was already over 3.5 when the changeover happened so it was just about getting minimum participation requirements there. If something good pops up in license level B or A that I really want to race, I don't want to have to wait 12 weeks or more whilst I get everything up to scratch to progress.
