The Season 12 Vintage GT series features all Group 3 GTs (over and under 2L). In this thread we will each choose a single car to drive for the entire season.

No duplicate cars will be allowed, and further, no more than 3 cars of any particular model will be allowed. Selection order will be determined by reverse standings from the concluded S11 winter session (see your final standing here), then by sports car rank (lowest to highest) for any who didn't participate in S11, or finally by random selection for unranked drivers. Drivers will be allowed to change cars once during the season if unhappy with their assigned car.

Please post your top 3 preferred cars below (make and car #).

Update: This list is now final! Latecomers to the series can continue to post their car selection at the end of this thread. Remaining selection is now first come, first serve. I will continue to keep this post up to date with any changes.

One final note- I reserve the right to apply a common-sense filter to this process as it nears conclusion. If some of the fast guys end up with fast cars, so be it, but I don't want to see one ringer in a car that will run away with the season while similar drivers are stuck in the back. My hope is that everybody will get a chance to pick something that lets them be competitive and have a great time this season.
