Mod message Flair Up! Customize Your Profile with Racing Icons! New Sub Flairs! Tracks, Teams & 24h Classics!

16 Upvotes

Hey folks!

Hope you’re all enjoying this golden era of endurance and GT racing 🚀🏁

We’re excited to announce that user flairs are now live!
To kick things off, we’ve added some track names, iconic endurance races (yep, plenty of 24h action), a few manufacturers, and some GT teams.

Of course, we can’t cover every team, driver, or race from every era and championship (as much as we’d love to). So, we’re opening things up with a “request a flair” option. If there’s a team, manufacturer, track, or driver you’d like to rep, just drop the mod team a message. If it fits the sub’s theme, we’ll do our best to add it when we can.

And don’t worry — slowly but surely, we’ll keep expanding the list of flairs over time.

Thanks for being part of the community, and enjoy the racing talk!

— The Mod Team

Off topic Standard vs Premium at Sepang for China GT: am I overpaying for a glorified roof?

5 Upvotes

finally pulling the trigger on flying out for the China GT finale at Sepang after watching GT3 streams for years. tickets are live and there’s still seats across the board, but i'm completely stuck between Standard and Premium in the Main Grandstand.

half the older paddock threads swear Standard puts you right on top of the fences where you can actually feel the GT3 downshifts rattling your ribs, while other people say skipping Premium means getting your line of sight choked by safety mesh and team awnings.

i was squinting at seating layouts and elevation photos on veritickets trying to see where the actual tier cutoff sits, but 2D track charts don't tell you if that extra cash gets you a genuinely better tactical view into the garages or if it's just marketing tax for a slightly higher railing.

plus with support series running alongside GT3 all weekend, you’re basically camping out in those seats for 6+ hours. for anyone who’s actually done trackdays or GT weekends at Sepang: does the Premium view genuinely justify the jump, or is Standard the actual sweet spot for getting punched in the chest by exhaust noise?

GR GT3 PLANS

In my opinion, a GT3 manufacturer should not be allowed to limit a new car to, in this case, one team in FIA WEC, one team in IMSA, one team in Super GT and an unconfirmed program in NLS, *if* there are more teams who want to race this new car.

GT3 is customer racing. If I happen to have 20 million euros, dollars or pounds to spend and I want to spend it on a GT3 program and I want to use the Toyota, I should be able to buy the Toyota if a couple of other teams have it as well.

Another example, and honestly an even better one, is Ford and their exclusivity deal with Haupt Racing Team in European series. That is not the spirit of GT3 at all.

Macau grand prix paddock ticket

5 Upvotes

I want to attend this year macau grand prix with paddock ticket. But the problem is, when I open the official website, it only says to log in to buy a paddock ticket, and I've never made an account before. I cannot find where to register on the Macau Grand Prix website.. how do I make an account and buy the ticket?

Or... is there any other way to meet and get autographs from drivers?
