Okay. Sent you one. Thanks.

 

[MitchZ06]

Okay does anyone know the FordGT specs for GT1 in this race coming up? I've been searching and can't find them

Your FGT should still be the same unless you've been tinkering with it.....
Yours is stock weight and 620hp, Javs is same weight 600hp.

 

[t_ray_z28]

Oh, hey guys, check out what showed up at my work today! I was pretty amped but I'm a vette guy, if it isnt obvious!

 

[MitchZ06]

Wheres the CF splitter and side skirts?

Other than that, nice but I'm a Z06 man myself

Saw a Z06 and an SLS battling it out on the freeway this weekend...

I wouldn't complain about a Zo6 or even a regular C6 for that matter.

So hot want to touch

Yeah I was tinkering b/c of possibly using it in LMES and PSN being down made me forget

 

[t_ray_z28]

what time is the event tonight?

 

[MitchZ06]

Dunno but I've noticed something, those GTC cars are going to be an epic pain to pass in the twisty bits....

 

[t_ray_z28]

what are you trying to say?! lol

 

[Rich77]

Yeah what're you trying to say, were bad drivers or something?

 

[Tower Turn 13]

What's the traction on the track? Low or real? I thought it was low for this series but I don't know.

 

[gogatrs]

Dunno but I've noticed something, those GTC cars are going to be an epic pain to pass in the twisty bits....

That's the entire point of mixed class racing. But you probably know this already. Use it to your advantage.
Lobby will open around 7:30-8:00 EST.
Qualifying can be either mixed or by class. Up to you guys.
Regardless, qualifying session(s) will be ten minutes and will start at 8:30 or when the last guy enters the room. It will start no later than 8:45.
Race will start at ~9:00 and will be 24 laps long.

Is everyone ready?

 

[Tower Turn 13]

Not really

Did you see my question about the traction settings? Do you know if it's gonna be "low"?

 

[gogatrs]

For this season it has been set to low.
For next season it will be real.
But it's most likely going to rain this race (it always rains at Le Mans), so we can set it to whatever you guys want...

 

[Tower Turn 13]

Er my vote goes for "low" just because I'm so utterly unprepared for this race lol.

But I'll do whatever everyone else wants.

 

[Rich77]

What is the general guess for the time range of this race?

 

[gogatrs]

What is the general guess for the time range of this race?

No more than two hours I believe.
I haven't done a lap in ages.
I believe it's about 3:10 laptimes for LMP.
3:10 x 24= ~76 minutes not including pit stops.
So less than 1.5 hours.

Do we wanna try a pace/formation lap this race?

Just a heads up, some weeks I may be there last minute. I get off work at 5, get home now, (5:30) and work out for an hour, so mix in time to change, shower ect. and give or take traffic from work to home, I may be right on the money. But I'll be there unless otherwise stated!

 

[Tower Turn 13]

I'm down for a formation lap.

 

[Rich77]

Formation lap will take a very long time if you do a 60 mph limit.

Also you don't see the GTC guys finishing right, since well be down so much?

 

[gogatrs]

The GT1 and GTC guys will not finish.

If we do a formation lap, I'll allow an 80 mph speed limit.
On the exit of Tetre Rouge (turn right before the Mulsanne Straight) you may accelerate to 150 mph.
Speed limit goes back down to 80 mph at the first brake marker for the first chicane, upon exit you can go up to 150. Same for the second chicane (I believe it's called the PlayStation chicane and the first one is McDonald's?).
After Mulsanne corner, the speed limit goes back down to 80 until the ford Chicanes, here the limit goes down to 40 mph.
The race starts as soon as the first LMP guy crosses the start/finish line.

Do we wanna do a group pic beforehand?

 

[stupidstormy36]

Why not? Er...provided I get to join in on the fun! But we'll see!

 

[Rich77]

Prepping my F430 now, damn this thing is sexy when's the room up?
