Awfully quiet in here.... calm before the storm....
my car will ship out this week...
I Put my slightly manipulated C6-R FTE in the mail today. Good Luck guys.
Aren't the Estoque and the Urus concept cars?
So based on very limited research...the Urus qualifies because it is a production car. The Estoque, however, is just a concept and was never made production.
The "no concept models" rule has been on the books since March when the event was posted, so it isn't a last minute change or anything.
So, since the car already shipped out, I'd say the car can be in the race but it won't earn any series points. And in the case that the Estoque wins the whole bracket, the prize would go to the runner-up. Sound reasonable?
I know that's different than removing the car from the race entirely but I think we'd all rather see a car race and help fill in the bracket.
- This is awesome. I'm also sending in an Estoque -had no idea it was a concept car, all that I read was that we could enter any Lamborghini. — JDC442
- Didn't read down to the bottom of the list of 'acceptable entries' to even see that restriction. — JDC442
- Well...lets see what others say... — redlinederby
- I had no idea it was a concept car! I'm thrashing on another car. It will be priority shipped tomorrow. — EconoCarl
- FWIW: The Urus is a concept car until it goes into production in 2017/2018. The Estoque was to be a production car too (internet don't lie). — EconoCarl
- Yeah, read the Estoque will never be a prod car. At least Urus is already being made. — redlinederby
Okay, so looks like we have more than one Estoque being entered...and JDC brings up a good point that knowing that model was a concept would require some digging, ie, it's not stamped on the car like some other castings (like the Acura and Camaro). I didn't know it was a concept either until I looked it up, and there's a good chance that others might be entering cars that fall into the same boat...sooo...
I'm open to hearing what other entrants have to say on the topic. If the field at large would be cool with the Estoque running for points then I'm fine with it too.
I guess when I was asked about concepts and added the restriction, I did so with the thought being cars that were stamped/labeled as concept. But if you didn't choose a casting because you knew it was a concept and yet not stamped, I can see how you'd be pissed.
I didn't expect this to be an issue so I'm just trying to find a happy place. Ultimately, someone will be unhappy but I'm open to hearing what others think. Either way, the cars will be in the race, the case we're debating is whether or not those cars will earn points/prizes.
And this doesn't impact the schedule or anything, so racing will go on as planned and we'll deal with points or handicaps or whatever as we talk it through.
Hi Chopper,
Can you post or PM the shipping address for entries?
Thanks
