Yes! The TC class is where they should have been all along. In a few years, hopefully people can get this car sorted enough to go after the gts class.

Qualifying times now official. FR-S second fastest behind Mazda RX-8 and ahead of Civic Si. First telecast starts at 11:05 AM eastern (10:05 CDT) time tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the heads up...I'll be watching this!

Bumping this as a reminder. The first race starts in one half hour. There is a second one later today and one tomorrow afternoon.

Are there any sports car roadracing fans out there? Tune in to cheer on the FR-S.

This is great racing. I am going to try to catch these more often.

AZP Installs · 03-07-2015, 01:26 PM

Great race guys, was watching.

Considering building our Spec86 into a WC TCA car now!

Good race. I am not sure if he won or got second. The RX-8 broke near the finish but may have already taken the checkered flag. Either way the FR-S was stout and beat some of the more powerful TC cars as well as all the other TCA class cars. Two more races to go.

AZP Installs · 03-07-2015, 01:36 PM

Do you have a link to the rules? Trying to find them but not much luck.

Unofficially on twitter PWC is saying the FR-S took 1st:

Nice win for Rivera, but always sad to see the class leader break down on the last lap.

On the World Challenge home page it is under the Drivers/Teams drop down tab.

I had a look at the general specifications for the different classes and TCA cars seem like they are only allowed mainly safety, handling and maintenance upgrades (fluids, brake pads etc.). Really impressed they were able to run those cars so hard all race.

Yeah, but the FR-S led the first half of the race so it was by no means a gimme. It will be interesting to see if the Mazda can make it back for the afternoon race.

Lonewolf · 03-07-2015, 02:55 PM

Damn these races are addictive! Im glued to the GTS race right now, and I'm chomping at the bit for this afternoon's TC race...

why anyone would watch NASCAR over this is beyond me...

Lonewolf · 03-07-2015, 06:10 PM

Ps...second race starting in a few minutes for anyone on the board right now...
