Pirtek Racing will be run by the Astro Racing Group over the next few seasons, it has emerged. The British-based fluid transfer solutions company has pedigree in various racing categories ranging from touring cars and V8 Supercars, and they have stepped up to the GT-R World Championship with new entrant Pulsar Racing Team. It is expected that the partnership will expand into single-seaters in 2018.

This is a preview of the Pulsar-run Pirtek Corvette C5-R we can expect to see in 2017:

Thanks for the preview shot, RRR!

If anyone needs drivers these guys are available:

Randall Wade (USA) - Competed in 9 rounds of GT-R last season with BITW, best finish of 8th
Ragnar Larsen (SWE) - Recently competed in 2016 Aston 12 Hours (finished 9th), also experienced in F3RWRS and RoLFS

Both are also competing in the Le Mans Cup full-time this season so will only be able to do GT-R part time when it does not clash with LMC.

Ok, but like I said they will only be able to compete part-time (I think half the races will be fine - 6)

Sounds great! For these races, Wade will partner Granger and Larsen will share the car with Bisping.

Coolio.

I can offer you other drivers for the remaining rounds, but they are complete rookies...

Équipe Fantomette by Euromotor International announces that American Jamarian Woods (formerly from Warped Touring Car series) will partner Dawn Granger at both North American Rounds and Andrew Myers (another American) will partner Quentin Bisping at aforementioned rounds

EDIT: The team still pursues drivers to fill the remaining seats for the 2017 season, except for Super GP where two French Ladies, Sophie de Motefeux (who will partner Granger) and Caroline de Valmont (to partner Bisping) will take part for the team

I still need Livery Plans from a bunch of users, so check the link below to see what is done (that means you need to get to work Painting Fraternity). I also need complete driver pairings before I am able to proceed with Driver Ratings, so check the wiki for details on that one.

The New/Updated Rules post wrote:*Each Individual car can only have a maximum of five drivers in races throughout the season. But each car can only have three driver role changes throughout the year, meaning you can change both the Starting and Second driver at the same juncture and it will only counts as one driver role change.

Based on what I'm seeing on the wiki, you are way over this limit. Change the driver plans or face running a part time schedule where you will only run the races where three driver parings do the majority of the running.

FantometteBR · Post by **FantometteBR** » 12 Aug 2014, 01:17

Granger and Bisping are the first drivers of each car for all season, therefore how many second drivers I can allot for each car (given that Wade, Larsen and Bizarri already have their slots filled and won't be voided)

Three for each car.

Ok then, here is the definite list:
For Dawn Granger:
Randall Wade (from Argentina to Italy, Germany and Japan)
Jamarian Woods (USA, Canada)
Aramis Santon (the remaining rounds plus Super GP)

Quentin Bisping
Ragnar Larsen (Argentina to France, Germany, China and Japan)
Antonio Bizzarri (Italy)
Helena Bertinelli (the remaining rounds)

Bastürk Quoc, Myers, de Motefeux and de Valmont are the 'reserve' drivers in case of anything happens. Is it fine with rules now?

(EDIT: Noticed Bastürk will run at Le Mans Cup, so Santon will replace him)

Post by **DemocalypseNow** » 12 Aug 2014, 12:39

Antonio Bizzarri is pretty miffed at having his driving time slashed down by Fantomette, and therefore is open to all other offers, especially the Gulf Saleen second drive.

If any one is able to create Fulcrum Racing's livery for it would be much appreciated, something similar to this would be fine with this logo in the car instead of the lada logos if possible

Fulcrum Racing are on the lookout for 2 drivers to drive our Viper in 4 rounds this season the seats are open to anyone

GTR2 allows different wheel and tire styles for each car. If you want anything specific for your cars based on what is possible from the list below, please let me know. These do not affect the performance of the cars. Some cars already have Wheel or Tire makes featured on their livery, so they will not be changed to contradict the livery. (That means I won't be changing the livery either if you want something else) Part-Time teams are still open to enter, with the deadline for entry being the running of the first Pre-Season Test Session from the Bahrain International Circuit.

Chevrolet Corvette C5.R

Dunlop Tires + Wheels BBS
Michelin Tires + Wheels BBS

Chrysler Viper GTS-R

Dunlop Tires + Wheels BBS
Pirelli Tires + Wheels OZ
Dunlop Tires + Wheels ATS
Pirelli Tires + Wheels BBS
Michelin Tires + Wheels BBS

Ferrari 550 Maranello

Michelin Tires + OZ Wheels Style 1
Dunlop Tires + Wheels ATS
Pirelli Tires + Wheels OZ
Michelin Tires + OZ Wheels Style 2

The difference between Michelin tires within GTR2 is that style 1 is for 2003 550s, and Style 2 for 2004 550s.

Ferrari 575 GTC

Pirelli Tires + Wheels OZ Wheels
Michelin Tires + Wheels OZ Wheels

Saleen S7-R

Dunlop Tires + Wheels BBS Grey
Dunlop Tires + Wheels OZ Grey
Dunlop Tires + Wheels OZ White
Pirelli Tires + Wheels BBS Grey
Dunlop Tires + Wheels OZ Black
Pirelli Tires + Wheels BBS Black

Some Tire/Wheel sets for the Saleen might be bugged, can't be fugged to fix.

Trueba's 575 will use Pirellis.

With TRRS done, ICE-3 Racing can now confirm their line-up for the #17 Ferrari 575 GTC. Helena Boveri (SWI) will be the starting driver and Julia Schilling (GER) the second driver.

EDIT : And the cars will use Pirelli tyres. It was obvious since the Pirelli stickers are on the cars.

Details on Submitting Ratings will be posted in the next few days. In the meantime, I will be entering additional part-time cars at certain rounds to fill up each Pre-Q grid. They will be all-new drivers and teams that other users can claim as their own.

Details are on this post about where they are entering: http://www.gprejects.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7045&start=40#p311010
