Hi Everyone! Welcome to the 5th edition of Le Mans 1000km Race.
The idea of hosting a Endurance Race was when I have competed into several endurance races and I always wanted to host a endurance race.

The first edition was held in 13th May 2017, featuring Group C and GT1 machinery and the winner of first edition was Frederick Byloos on his Nissan R92CP. In 2018, the 2nd edition of Le Mans 1000km Race was part of MHRA Schedule and it was the first time that the race had LMP1 and GT3 Cars running around the track. The Winner of 2nd Edition was Alexander Erhart.
Le Mans 1000km has returned in 2020 after one sabbatical year and 2021 saw see its 4th edition of Le Mans 1000km.

Unfortunately, Le Mans 1000km race did not go ahead in 2022, however, it will see the light green in 2023!

We're looking forward to see you on the track for the race! :cheers:

1.2- In every round, the Sporting Regulations will be on effect.

1.3- Making insults, racism and accusing towards participants or organisers is extremly prohibited and there will be severe consequences if these of the breaches happen.

1.4- The Sporting Regulations document are not definitive, therefore, they are sujected to the change at any time, for any reason.

2.1.1- The race will be a lapping Race, which will be set to 38 laps, plus the Pace Lap.

2.1.2- At least one pit Stop is mandatory for the race, thus changing tire compound.

2.2.1- Each qualifying session will have 4 sessions, each two qualifying sessions for each class.

2.2.2- Each qualifying session will last 1 hour.

2.2.3- The qualifying format will be done in Free Run and the drivers are expected to set the fastest lap times for a race.

2.2.4- Once the qualifying sessions end, the Event Promotors will be noting the lap times. Only the fastest lap session will be counted for the Overall Qualifying.

2.2.5- The Organisation has the right to disallow a lap time if a driver is found to breach the regulations, at any time for any reason!

2.2.6- If there are more than 16 drivers, a Pre-Qualifying Session will be done. Pre-Qualifying is a session that 17 or more drivers will attempt to the qualify for the full race. Only 16 drivers will be allowed to qualify, meaning, 8 drivers from Hypercar and 8 drivers from GTE.

2.2.7- A driver might choose a Qualifying session which is more suitable for a driver.

2.3.1- As soon the drivers join the lobby, they will be called to do the Grid Formation.

2.3.2- Once the drivers are Lined Up for the Grid, the race will be started in a countdown.

2.3.4- The drivers who were disconnected and absent during the Qualifying Sessions will start at back of the grid.

The Mandatory Competition Caution will be done in a Specified Lap and you can do it by pressing "START" to let the car autodrive.

2.4.7- So, for anyone who doesn't finish on the lead lap. When the timer in the bottom right to finish the race comes out, the racers will cross the line and assume it as the chequered flag and do the cool down lap on their own terms instead of the game doing it for them.

2.4.8- Calling a FCY will only be valid if only 2 or more cars lose control and crash each other. If only 1 car crashes and if a FCY is called, it will be considered as a "Inappropriate FCY Call" and will also result in a penalty, depending of the severity.

Sorry for the 6th post in a row everyone.

After a few thoughts, I have decided that the Chevrolet Corvette Gr. 3, BMW M6 GT3 Sprint Model '16 and Ford GT Race Car '18 are now added to the car selection. They are now eligible to race for Le Mans 1000km!
 
This sounds excellent! Sign me up, please.

Just gonna put out a cautionary possible withdrawal from the race. Got my leg in a cast, and unsure whether I’ll get it off in time/be allowed to properly use my right foot.

I don’t trust myself enough with a controller to A: keep a respectable pace, B: not ruin someone’s race with a wrong button press

This sounds like an awesome idea and I hope that it picks up traction! I'll enter tentatively for now :). I wont be able to attend practices but can attend quali. The time difference makes it tough with work.

Thanks, looking forward to it. Are there any requirements for the windshield banner and numbers? Do they need to be GT Auto number plates or can we use others?

Going to create a livery this weekend :)

There is no restriction regarding number fonts, therefore, you can use any number plates.

However, the GTE decal is mandatory for GTE cars.
 
Oh, I'm sorry I misunderstood. I won't be making it until the 25th. I'm really busy all week so I can only make the session that is immediately before the race!

That's good! As long as you can make it to the race, it will be great. 👍
 
Hi Harsk, my team is interested in entering but won't be able to decide our car until Friday. Will that be an issue?

Hi Obelisk!

There is no problem. As long as you can make it to the race, it will be good. 👍
 
Waiting to hear back from another driver, but I can confirm us two for now:

Name: Ryan Obelisk
PSN: RMedia_Obelisk
Class: GTE
Car: To be determined
Age: 28
Team: Shadow Racers
Number: #32

Name: Dwayne Gable
PSN: TITANxPhobos
Class: GTE
Car: To be determined
Age: 33
Team: Shadow Racers
Number: #33

Edit: I'm looking at the BOP and I'm noticing that the BMW M6 Sprint is not able to hit 554 HP. The power restrictor and CPU both will detune to car to 555 HP on the dot - can you double check this?
Edit 2: How is the Porsche at 540 BHP, by the way? The only way to increase its HP is to add a turbo to it and then detune.

No problem! Welcome!
Regarding about the Porsche at 540 BHP, at the time that the spreadsheet was made, it was made when I was still hosting the race at GTSPORT.

By the way, I will check for BMW M6 Sprint and Porsche Specs.
 
Sorry for the double post, but went to check the specs of Porsche 911 GT3 RSR '17 and BMW M6 GT3 Sprint '16.

Porsche is set now at 517 BHP/1243 kg, while the BMW's specs were now updated to 585 BHP/1300 kg.
