Arden which one of the B's you talking about - FRC or YouTube :?: :D

For me, FRC's option B is good but will be even better if the AM, GT & LMP classes stay in same group, maybe with less laps or races...

The time being - run a mixed GT race with the F1 class, atleast till new Nissan GT-R class is good to good.

:arrow: 7 Groupings for FRC Events 8-)

Here is a suggestion for the order of (G2G IROCs) class/gruops with Option B:

HS, VS & G5SC
PC & MP ................... IRCO
FTC & RC .................. IRCO
MC & SC ................... IRCO
LS & F1 .................... IRCO
Mixed GT & R-GT ...... IRCO
AM, GT & LMP

What you'll think?

If we're going to keep it down to six groups as Steve suggested (so that we have the minimum cycle time), here's how we have to run them (A to O represent whatever classes you decide to group together - 15 in total):

(1) A, B
(2) C, D, E
(3) F, G
(4) H, I, J
(5) K, L
(6) M, M, O

On the days we run three classes (groups 2, 4 and 6 above), we need to figure out how to save time. Eg: we can have fewer races or fewer laps or both.

So, what classes should we group together?

Hi Gordon,
here is my suggestion based on your proposal:
1)Mini,Rally
2)PC,HS,VS
3)SC,RGT
4)F1,Lambo,G5
5)FTC,MP
6)GT,AM,LMP

My idea is to have on the 3-race nights (other than the 'fast' night) at least 2 standard or 'IROC' classes to minimize repair time between races.

The Nissan "IROC" GT-R will be FRC's 16th class...

As we all know its still a little way down the road $$$ to be completed... Guess we could cross that bridge where to fit it when completed!

Maybe we can call/name this (up & coming) new class the Nissan GT-R Invitational Event
