"Yes, it's that time of year again, and we've got a special treat for ya since we're not going to be able to run rFactor for this Bullrun 1000, there are just too many problems with driver swaps and the track isn't even done yet. So, we'll be using N2003... with these... www.thepits.us/pics2/last67_01.jpgThanks to C-one for giving one 'last' Hail Mary to this mod...should be great fun! 3 new types of cars...Ferrari 330 (closed and open cockpit), Ford GT40, and I think it's the Porsche 910 (or else Lola T70)... More information on the race over the next few weeks. Sign up to the Bullrun 1000 mailing list if you are interested... games.groups.yahoo.com/group/bullrun1000/Cheers! Jan" Sound good? Bob  |

Darn BOb,
You beat me to it. I'm also excited about the mod choice. I love that 330 mod and always wondered about them adding more cars. Was running 5th in the standings in the ISRL league before stopping.
You gotta have some patience to drive these things.
I would suggest if anyone wants to run this event that you experience the mod first. These aren't as forgiving as the GTP cars.

Ced is correct.
I run a fixed-setup 330 league at MNRL with the 330s. They're fun to drive, but I have no set-up experience with them.
You do have to be careful with the gearbox. It seems that the 330 mod and OW mod are both tough on gears.
It'll be interesting to see if these last the full Bull Run!

Hey Rob,
Not like I have time to do this but I do miss racing those things. What day and time does that league race?

Every Sunday night. They run two races each night... a Sprint race (meaning no pitstop), and an Enduro (meaning one or more pitstop). They do a Sprint, Enduro, and Overall champion.
Server opens at 8:00 PM for practice for the Sprint, which puts it about in the middle of the PORRS GTP event. So, I'll be missing every other 330 Sprint race. The PORRS events have generally been concluding before the Enduro, so I've been able to make those. Got to Monza last night with 2 minutes left in practice. I got P4 in the 25 lap Enduro! Weeee!
Good stuff if you wanna try it. I know they'd like to get some more cars in the field! They're generally running anywhere from 12 to 18 per event. You can sign up at mnrl.net.

OK, now it's different.
From The Pits on the new Mod
Ok, we won't
have that realistic of physics settings compared to the original cars
(it will be the T/A physics from N2003), but that was taken out of our
hands by actions of iRacing...so just enjoy Papy as they used to be, and
we should have a fun race.

This will be run with a NEW 330 mod that is not compatible with the original 330 so even practicing with the old one will be of no help, the new mod will use PTA physics so maybe practice, for now, with TPTCC mod or the PWF TA mod, from what has been said the new mod might be available by the end of the week.

The signups are gonna start next week. I will enter both cars so minimum we will need 4 drives. More than 3 drivers per car is not a good idea because of lost time switching and the race isn't that long.
For Now I have:

Please let me know if the above is incorrect.
Please post here if anyone is interested or I missed a post. If P1 and P2 are both full and there are two more drivers that want to race. You can always join on your own as long as spots are available. There is a two car per team limit so we can't have 3 PORRS Cars (unfortunately)
Scott, how difficult would it be to transfer that paint scheme to another body.
Cars: I'm really a big fan of the GT40, doesn't mean we have to race that or use it for both cars. I hope they get the porsche done but it doesn't look like it. So you will have a choice of GT40, Lola and maybe two Ferrari's
