I doubt that track list is correct, thus my asking....

So this is the by class order?

What about DNFs? I think the harry potter guy DNFd, mitch DNSd (or DNF, not sure) and I feel like one other person peaced out mid-race. Oh yeah it was gtpmann or whoever was driving the gt-one.

Also gatrs are you OK with having 3 458s? Do you want me to switch and team up with mitch or something?

I just want to put it out there, tell me what you all think.

I really enjoy racing with this group, and all the fun banter we have in the forums. What would you all think of a proposed get together at the USGP next year? Who all is planning on going?

lol, that thread was dead for a while.
Survived for a relatively long time. haha

 

[rocko100]

What's that two of your threads have been closed in the past couple weeks I'd watch out gatrs oh I edited my signature

 

[hon1987]

Just watching the replay ... Parabulla, I didn't lag in to you on lap 18 did I? It didn't show contact on my screen, but some of the cars are lagging on the replay.

This means war! We'll see who holds that title after next race

I couldn't tell if you made contact, but you did lag coming into the first turn, pretty sure that was lap 18. I stretched my stint too long and my tires turned into shuffleboard pucks as you started catching me.

Yeah, I wondered why you didn't pit right away. I think you might have had the pace to beat me if you went toe to toe!

Sorry about the connection, will try and sort it for next time we race.

As long as I wasn't ploughing through the dasies, our split times stayed put. Lost too much time being patient behind the other Peugeot, and of course the above mentioned stupidity. It would have been a close battle for sure, congrats on the win.

 

[MitchZ06]

I'm out of the series.

Can't believe I missed this! Damn I wanted to race my rustbucket against his superior speed!

And gatrs I really wouldn't mind knowing what the next track is...

 

[gogatrs]

Circuit de la Sarthe 2005 Without Chicanes is next.

 

[MitchZ06]

Ah...well best on that track so far is a 3:41. Gonna be slipstream fest fo sho.

 

[Techy]

Circuit de la Sarthe 2005 Without Chicanes is next.

Without Chicanes? I guess I have to worry a bit more on drafting, tuning the transmission, and the most effective top speed, torque, and acceleration obtainable on the straights.

 

[MitchZ06]

I'm getting about 322km/h down the straight

Yeah, hope we can have a proper battle at Le Mans! I was surprised the Bentley was better on fuel economy than the Peugeot as well! As well as being easier on tyres! As I said, I didn't hit you on mu screen, you just seemed to run too deep at turn one, its probably my connection, so I'll try and fix it and hopefully we can go toe to toe next time!

 

[MitchZ06]

I've gotta battle with GT cars and now have to watch out for you two?! *throws hands in the air*

EDIT: New fastest lap, 3:38.088

What a race! Had a terrible first stint, I was literally using my new pedals for the first time! had just unboxed them, pluged them in and fired up the PS3! On this pedals you need to adjust the load cell on the brakes to get full brake pressure, I didn't know that! So the green drops and everyone is sleeping from 3rd down so I got a great start, turn 1 apoaches and I got like 25% brakes only! Flying off I went! Spent the first stint trying to turn the load cell knob with my left foot while I was racing 4 other cars! Finally got it to a confortable enough setting and it was now time to make up for lost time! Little by little I was catching up to Gatr who managed to break away from the 5 car pack, but it wasn't enough so plan B is on! I extended the stints as much as possible(literaly), by doing that I could catch up Gatr as he was leaving the pits and put some 10 second gap between us, he would catch up and pass as my tires wore down to the core, final stint I catch Gatr as he exits the pits and into turn 1 in front of me! We had an awsome fight to the end of the race! Thank God for the 3 minute limit, if not Gatr woud have definitely passed me for 3rd!
Awsome race everyone!

Man you are gonna love them!!! I'm in love with mine, specially on iRacing! They are awsome! They give you so much more control over what you can do with the car! I can slide the car much more controllably than before, only downside is that is so much fun doing it that you burn your tires down quicker!!
