Well personally I would love to change, but understand why some
would want to stick with this mod, it does feel and look good,
but the setup issues are a big down side for me.
Both Apex and the S397 mods continue to improve (new update for
Apex today) while the URD mod has no information on any future
updates. I will race whatever this league decided to race, but
I really do hope the decision is made on what we believe the
best mod to be and currently I would now put the URD mod in 3rd
place :o.

Well, we are 5 weeks away from the end of the series it may be
time to start making some choices. Which Mod we use should be up
front. I think currently the series is either going to use the
current URD mod or the GT3 Pack. I have not yet tested the
updated APEX mod so I can't say if it has improved or not. Maybe
I'll test it this week on my days off.

I have a feeling there is high demand for gt3 series. We have
quite a few races left of EGT series. Personally, after that I
would be interest to try out gt3 cars. There is as much gt3 cars
as there are EGT cars.
We still need to test gt3 BoP. Rf2 and it's mods will always be
"unfinished" so no reason to wait too long. On the other hand,
we don't choose mods that aren't mature enough. Can't say for
sure if gt3 cars are ready for league use in two months or not.
I will race whatever we decide. It's great to race with this
group.

I have added a poll to get a sense of what the League members
would like to see for our next series. This in no way is binding
and ultimately Matt and I will come to a decision about which
mod to use. But, we certainly would like to hear everyones
opinions on which mod is preferred. Please vote and explain any
things you feel are important with your particular preference.

I've chosen other. I don't mind which mod is chosen for the next
season. But I would like some (off)season races with the GT3
pack, if you choose to continue with URD for the championship.

I tried the Apex update. Some cars feel good, some feel and look
like crap.
If we race it, there are at least 1 or 2 cars I like but overall
I rank it 3rd of those mods.

As long as we do not go for the Apex mod I am fine with anything
else.
By far the worst mod I tried.
I do not care much for graphics and can deal with poor sound,
but when the car drives like a bag of nuts I am out ;)

I tried the updated Bentley on Spa, version used in the race.
And I like it even more than before the update. They changed the
BOP a bit and setup changes really make a difference in the
handling. S397 really did a splendid job. Now I'm hoping they'll
add more cars.

A nice post that was linked in the S397 forum explaining GT3
cars, including the fixed gears.

I would also like to firmly put my vote behind the S397 GT3 pack
for the following reasons:
- The setup changes actually do what the label says and have
much more expected/predictable results
- There are much more limited setup options, so this process is
simplified
- The cars handle great and give great FFB
- The tire model seems much improved
- We have five cars to choose from, which is exactly the number
of cars we currently use in the EGT mod
However, the main reason is the promotion of better closer
racing. One of the things we have all enjoyed this season is
the odd moments where we get the chance to race wheel to wheel
with someone for a few laps. These moments are still often
fleeting and whilst the fast guys will always be fast, I think
this mod may lead to closer racing up and down the field and
isn't that why we race in a league ;D.
