I'll have you a combo by the end of the night. Can weather, date, etc. etc. go along with the combo choice?

Why don't you join us on Sundays too? We're starting to dabble into different time and weather progressions. I have 4 weather slots and 15 time progression for a race coming up at Road America.

What time? I'm lucky to wake up before noon on the weekends.

My choice for combo is Ford GTE and Bugatti Circuit
 
Ok, guys so I haven't been satisfied with our starting laps and the ammount of contact that happens in the first few turns. And from a 3rd party perspective seems to be somewhat related to track and/ or car inexperience and people being overly aggressive in their overtakes. Half of the problem I can't help with, because it's just driving style. However I have a proposal to every person that wants to race in our league. @The__Camel will be running practice lobbies on Friday nights running the combo that transfers to the next week. I will also be running a lobby Tuesday nights from 9 P.M. to midnight running all the combos for the following night. They will be done in 1 hour practice blocks with the appropriate laps. I'm not trying to shame anyone, I just want to see closer, cleaner, racing from everyone.

I'm also making a slight tweek to the reverse grid starting procedure. We will still be starting double file, but the change is there will be no passing the car in front untill you are out of the first turn. Meaning the first row can battle but no one on the 2nd row on back may pass them untill they are through the first corner.

It's the Pits series at 1 eastern time. You signed up but never show up, lol.

My bad. I think I remember signing up for that. I was told it was Sunday evenings and never got an invite for anything that night. I get up early for work all week so when the weekend comes I sleep until I wake up with no alarms or anything and that's usually around 2pm EST. If I'm ever awake at that time I will try to join you guys

Control? Now that's the $64 question. I'm out for now. Let me know if you ever really get it right.

That's where you at!!! Come back to the light side .. :gtpflag: D2 is very fun! I'll even make you a custom livery.


BTW. if you don't mind me opining (if that's a word) Great Idea... but it doesn't solve the problem. Aggressive starts has nothing to do with lack of racecraft and control.

Turn 1.. everyone made it just fine

I will definitely be in practice on Tuesday. I feel like I am hazard on the track at times.
 
If anyone had any wheel setups they would like to share tonight for the g29 that would be much obliged. I would like to compare what I have set up now.

I just set mine up.

Raw, 80, 50, 50, 10 felt good to me. But I tried the first number at anywhere from 100 down to 50. 75-85 felt pretty good.

Thanks mine was similar to that I had my gain at 100. And my fx at 50. I just went and lowered them both. About to test it now
 
Yeah I don’t like too much pull on the wheel because it’s just not realistic. But I’ve seen some that like it super limp...which is just weird feeling.
