    Hello Chaps

    Can you please help me?
    I have installed the Endurance Series mod which is grouped in GTC/GTE/P2/P3

    I have then set an endurance race with 40 Cars and I have chosen Enduseries on Opponent Filter

    I would expect the application to spread the choice of cars among the sub classes but this is what I get
    22 cars from p2 class
    2 cars from p3 class
    16 cars from gte
    0 cars from gtc

    Is there anyway to balance the classes ?

    BTW, I tried with opponents filter but it is really difficult to choose the cars based on the mod nomenclature

    No the game does not spread the load for classes unfortunately, the only way to do it is to manually Add/Remove AI when at the track.

    Not exactly what you want, but you can do this: select one car in Enduracers mod. For example, from 11LM category. Do not add other categories to opponents filter. Count the number of entries in opponents filter, then set AI number to number_of_cars_in_opponents_filter-1. Every 11LM car will have one AI + you in one. This way AI drivers also will be consistent for all tracks.

    I was able to achieve what I wanted given that I spent my entire Sunday figuring this out... what a nerd.
    I have created a series event using the tool gmotor2 MAS File utility.

    I followed the following procedure
    https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=554544322

    In my case I have created a series event which contains all my tracks
    and 40 cars
    10 GT3
    10 GTE
    10 LMP3
    10 LMP2

    It was really painful adding the cars from the Endurance Series as unfortunately it is not specified the class within the description.
    I had to write down in a piece of paper the teams I wanted and painfully I added the teams one by one.
    Like below red arrow under teams sections..

    Once this series event is created you can use it in offline mode and the cars will be available for selection

    Once this is done, I select the track I want and I make sure I select the specific teams ( not endurance series) , in my case will be 2 cars per group for a total of 40.

    Unfortunately , once you create your race event... you will not be able to modify it from MAS tool or create a new one as the app will crash!!..
    So you will need to delete all files on appdata/roaming pkgindo.dat and pkinfo_bak.dat and restart from scratch.

    This is really frustrating.. so you need to make sure you select the cars you want and all tracks so that you do this only one time.
