Hello, sorry for the late reply, I thought it was the 2nd of July. I'd prefer to drive one of the sweet 375 Pluses, #5 if possible, but would be fine with either of them. Then probably one of the 300SL roadsters, #20, #18 and #19 in that order. Finally, Porsche 550 Spyder, preferably the green #38.

#7 Scuderia Ferrari
#40 Ecurie Rosier (I like the colour)
#28 Bristol Aeroplane Co.

Please note though, looking at the diary, I think I will be lucky to make half of the races this year. So please don't give me a car over anyone else who is more likely to make use of it.

At this stage, I'm fairly confused about car choices and can easily find something else to drive if my first choices are popular with others.

3000+ was a bust, the 1500s went way better, so naturally it's time to move on to one of the remaining classes.

1: #21 Equipe Gordini (or it's partner #22)
2: #24 Officine Alfieri Maserati (or it's partners #25/#26)

3: #57 Ecurie Monte-Carlo

If only the Merc hadn't completely imploded...

The entry list in the first post has been updated.

32 drivers have booked a car. Of those, 22 will get their first choice, while 9 will get their second one. Only the poor Doc finds himself with his third choice. It’s mostly due to you having had the honesty of warning us about having to miss half the races David. I agree it is not a great way to reward a good deed lol, but I’m sure you understand. I will try and make it up to you in a future booking process.

It goes without saying that you don’t have to accept the car we assigned you to. Any driver is free to refuse it and switch to another entry that has not been booked yet.

Any driver posting a time at Spa on the training server with his assigned car will be considered as having accepted it, and will not be allowed to switch to another entry.

Obviously, active members and newcomers who would not have booked a car before the deadline can also pick any free car remaining.

I would like to drive the remaining Jaguar #8 please. :top:

Subject: Re: 2023 Gold Star - Entry List [1955 series] Mon 3 Jul 2023 - 9:14

I would like to team up with Robin, #25 for me please

Subject: Re: 2023 Gold Star - Entry List [1955 series] Mon 3 Jul 2023 - 20:01

I know I will be missing at least the first and last races. :smil20:

I’m going with national colors:

1. #56 Ecurie Yankee, Masten Gregory, 4.5 Ferrari 375 MM & 1.5 OSCA MT4/1500

2. #47 North American Racing Team, Luigi Chinetti, 4.5 Ferrari 375 MM

or tried and true:

3. #36 1.5 Porsche 550, Huschke von Hanstein

Considering my spotty attendance, if anyone else prefers any of these choices, I can easily be persuaded to defer. ($$$$) :regl:
