Noob: Is there a way to run a race with all the same class cars?

irieite · 22 December 06, 06:38

I know you can choose a field of '03 and/or '04 FIA cars for a race. What I'm looking for is the option that will allow me to run only against the same class car that I'm driving. E.g. G3's against only G3 cars or G2's against only G2 cars.

Is there such an option? I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I could not find an answer using the search function.

Regards,

When you go to select your "car" you get a list (column of names with green selection buttons) on the left, where you select the categories. Above that list is the category name and it should have two small arrows to the left and right. Click on them and you should get your selection list to change... if you keep clicking you get choices like "by class", "by model", etc... Click on the green buttons to select and/or deselect what you want and what you don't.
