I'll let you run it for this exhibition race.
But, as I've said, it's never raced at Le Mans/ALMS.
If it races there in the future, you're welcome to use it. :dopey:
But for now, it stays in the FIA. :D

OK, first, here's what you need to do:
Buy Premo
Change Your User Name to MitchMP4
Create a new PSN account, Mitch_MP4
Give me a cookie

Good?

LOTS of understeer. :yuck:

I'd just stick to the Vette.
Plus, I don't have the licensing rights from Jav to let you run those MP4 specs in the regular season. :dopey:
 
500hp/1250kg puts it on par with the other cars (for me anyway) so its not Javs spec! Plus its a NRGR developed car not a Constant Speed Racing product! :p

If you're going to use it, use Jav's specs.
Those are proven to be even.

you forgot, "and give me the money back you took from me, that caused me to rob a gas station at no fault of t_ray!"

I don't really have a teamate anymore, btw. I'm a lone warrior!
 
Guys I am following this series. Really want to run an LMP.

Hoping time frames line up and I can participate. Otherwise I would still do reserve fill in type of deal.
 
Are the teams listed? And, if so, where are they listed?

EDIT: I also just want to question about using the pit out lane at Laguna Seca as any means other than a pit out lane as being illegal and would constitute a penalty. While watching the replay, I noticed that some of the drivers were indeed cutting this point. I ask because I know in a real race, doing so, especially when gaining ground, is considered cutting the course. Not to mention it's also dangerous to people leaving the pits. So I think that you must keep your right wheels to the right of the blue and white strips at the pit exit. But I don't make the rules.

Also a wuestion about the Daytona Road Course pit out prscedure. Are you supposed to use the full pit out lane here as you are supposed to?

Also, when pitting out, you are not supposed to cross the designated solid line until it either turns white (if the line was originally yellow), or a dashed line (if the line was originally a solid white). This wasn't a problem at Laguna Seca seeing how there was no line after you regained control of your car. I know I'm porbably sounding like a pain here, but these are proper pit out procedures that should be followed. But like I said, I don't make the rules here.

Yeah idk if t ray said but even if I still race with you guys, Id like to not be teammates with him. Like I said I'd rather somebody consistent be in that position.

Yes, pulling into the racing line @ T1 is a wreck waiting to happen, use the real pit road exit.

Green, NOT RED!
 
I like the longer one but its more a geeky reason than anything lol, I like its technicalness getting a car thru it then up to speed coming out.
 
Gaah. Almost had a close call this morning. I just had a major power failure in my city! Luckily it's back up now, but there would be no way of informing you guys if I could or couldn't make it. Usually, if I can't make it, I'd let you guys know.
 
gogatrs, can you update the original post with the qualifying rules/times? I always forget which page of the thread the information is on.
 
Should be the very first lot of posts.....
 
I did say should, dont take my word for it! :p search back a couple of pages maybe?

This is what gogatrs' last known information about the time and date of the qualifying.
