TTR presents the "1986 European Touring Car Championship " - Season Details
1986 was probably the most competitive year in terms of multi-manufacturer parity in the history of the Group A regulations, and certainly the most competitive European Touring Car Championship in the history of the title.
TTR will be reliving this classic season of Touring Car racing on Sunday nights over a complete 14 round season, running on the same (or as close to as possible) tracks as used in the 1986 ETCC. Cars from BMW, Holden, Rover,Volvo, Mercedes, Alfa and Toyota all have different strengths and weaknesses and should give all a chance to shine over the racing season.
RACE FORMAT
Tyre Wear - x3
Fuel Use - x3
12 of the 14 rounds will adopt a 2-race format. Race 1 will be a 15min race, with a longer 45min Race 2.
The second race will require a pitstop with the x3 fuel & tyre factors, as per the era where pitwork was very much a part opf the racing. Two races also allow someone who might get disconnected early a chance to compete again in the second race.
Grid for the second race will be formed from the Race 1 results
The Spa round of the series will be a single 2hr race, with the time set to x12, which will simulate a 24hr distance as per the real event.
The Silverstone round of the series will be a single 90min race, as it was one of the 'glamour' events of the series.
Standing Starts will be used
Points system will be the regular TTR system of 20-18-16..etc..

The dates of September 1 (Fathers Day), October 6 (Labour Day long weekend in some states) and October 13 (Bathurst 1000 day) have been left as off weekends.

How hard would it be to convert the GPL version of the pre 1987 version of Brno to Rfactor?

The 1987 Brno is a purpose built permanent circuit, it shares nothing with the pre'87 street circuit. I've got a '60s Brno, but it it is much longer than the '86 Brno.

I've downloaded TCL V1.0 4 times now and there seems to be a corrupted file in there somewhere. The zipped file seems to be there but when I try to open it with winzip, all I get is an error message saying the download was corrupted. The other 2 files have downloaded, no problems there.
Just wondering if there was another link to try, much appreciated.
Cheers
