Just interesting, I had always wondered how on earth the newer Kyalami was to the old one, as I could see little resemblance between them. So just in case anyone else was the same as me, this simple yet effective photo is how

makes me a bit sad.

I can add one to that, before it got the current configuration, it looked like that for 4 years

So why can't we use the old version? Has it not been made?

Milos · Mar 22, 2015

it has, but I think the new version was voted to be instead

Good to know

The pictures were just posted to show the progression of how Kyalami has changed. Frankly I can see why it was dropped again from F1 so quickly.

Nice calendar, shame Zandvoort isn't on there. As Lesley said to me, guess I'm the only one who thinks Zandvoort isn't Monaco v2.0. Still I do have Germany and Belgium as sort of home races so that makes me happy

It certainly isn't, s/f straight allows a good amount of overtaking. Run a gpgnc race there some time ago, so I know what I'm talking about

Aidan Keranen · Mar 22, 2015

And there is an old Zandvoort, don't know how good/bad that is, that may not have been on the list so no one knew of it

GPTCC ran there last season in race 1. Definetly not Monaco v2.0

It misses a bit of scenery and objects, but the layout is ace.

There are a few more tracks on the list who are available in different layouts.

yeah I'll get a FFG list for next time instead of using a previous one. Then we leave out pseudo-banned circuits (so far, 1) and get all the good layouts in.

I think that Zandvoort isn't Monaco V2 as well

we are not sure yet, but this Sunday, the 29th March, is when liveries need to be in by. I am hoping that the GPGSL start on April 1 (take that at face value..), if that is the case we could expect to be going within two weeks of that hopefully.

K thanks

So a reminder that the deadline is for this Sunday, 29th March. To be fair and give you guys some time, I will not take liveries after 12pm Monday here (i don't know if daylight savings or not, point being, just get your stuff in).
Drivers should be talking to their teams about helmets as well. Contacting me by PM to confirm a new helmet (you find/make it), confirm an old one, or request a basic one.
Also, @XenForo I need some info about your team, a name would be a great start

Feel free to PM and we'll get it organised there.
@mystaaRS Similar mate, missing some chunks of info it seems, chuck me a PM.

Obviously those two need liveries in too, a large portion of us do. If you are running out of time, or the template is too hard, please just accept it and use the SMD-09a. Make a skin on that. If you don't submit a shape with skin before the first round you'll be given a basic coloured SMD-09a anyway.

And before Stephan starts asking of them again, no I haven't gotten to the regulations. Yet.
