Thanks to everyone who has participated in our survey so far - 15 responses as of tonight! Thank you guys!
Here's a quick summary of the voting so far:
(a) 1963 GT and (d) 1969 Trans Am are both tied with 10 votes a piece. Followed by (b) LM55 and (c) GTR2 1966 Trans Am with 9 votes each. Wow, that's close.
In the final count, I'll break any ties based on the sort or ranking of the mods in your votes.
I'll keep the survey open for another 24 hours if you haven't voted yet, or if you'd like to change your vote just post below.
Thanks again guys!

Hey Ed, (a) is LM55 and 1963 GT should be (b). And, looking at the votes (b) should be leading over (d), no.!

I would remove my preferences from the survey. My participation would be uncertain at best so I don't think it would be fair to influence the results.

Jon: I was puzzled by this for a while, when I realized the difference is because I removed my vote on the board here (thinking it would influence you guys) but left it on my count sheet.
No matter though, I'll tally it all up tonight.

Mr. Lorente
If there was a small country and you were the president I would definitely apply for citizenship, you are just too honest and fair. :)

LoL - I'll have to share that with my wife.
After I finish cleaning the house, making dinner and folding the laundry, of course :p (I beat Ray to the joke this time)

Thanks everyone for your participation! We have a decision: 1963 GT Legends!
Also, 90 minute races seems to be the clear favorite with a mix of day and dusk racing for "special" events.
I will organize some testing of the cars in the next few weeks, so we can further tweak the formula. Your help in the process will be much appreciated.
Thanks again guys and see you later for our Vintage GT Hockenheim race.

Nice, I will be in the Alfa 1300 most likely, as I used to have 2.0Lt Pininfarina Veloce model when I lived in Istanbul years ago. ;)

I just want to give you guys a brief update.
First the bad news ...
Due to the scarcity of available dates through December, I've decided that its not a good time to attempt a vintage series and am postponing our plans for the short term.
However ...
I'm eager to continue to promote vintage racing in our time slot, so I plan to setup a few more "special events" to help keep vintage racing on the calendar. To that end, I'm working towards adding a few more exhibition events, with different cars during the coming months (hint: Bathurst). Any remaining dates will also go towards our [Race07] GT/ST Challenge.
I regret having to make that decision, but I think its the right one and I hope you understand. So stay tuned, I hope to have some more information before our next race at Spa Francorchamps.
