It's only pre-season so you're free to pick any class and any car But you have to decide now what car and class you'll be in as we are on our last pre-season 'til the season starts.

Well its more of me wondering how I can join if there are already 16 drivers, being that a room can only hold that amount. And yes, I'm a little let down that I missed the other races so now I have only one race to prepare for the regular season.

As of now I'd like to switch from RUF to Ford GT. I may or may not switch but the Ford seems to be the best fit for me.

Do you still have room or no? If you want I could take another car or class. This just happens to be the exact racing series I was looking for, with someone in my time zone, with a great schedule.
I haven't been able to give any attention to this being behind on school work, but as of now I have time to.

You're good to join!
We will most likely have room for you come race day!

1:57's @Spa from the other LMP series, thats at 690hp, but 960kg. I'm sure the Audi's will be faster, the downforce is amazing on them.

ronin85 · Nov 14, 2011

The Audi r8 is way too quick, and the stock setup is well balanced right off the bat. What will us lowly other LMP drivers dooooo.......

I'm into GTC but if it's you blaze and FH doing it I doubt it's worth it for me to try to compete. I'm just not on that level and it seems I'm more of a peer with the GT drivers.

I dunno I'm torn about it, but I want to try the Ford at least this race.

Any chance you'd allow RX-8's? What would ALMS be without Speedsource?

Uhh, Speedsource doesn't run on the ALMS...

I might drop by from time to time for a race..

LMP 908 for me. It was fun navigating through the GT cars last season.

On second thought I'll take a crappy pescarolo to make it fun.

Wow, that's what I get for posting in a hurry in school, lack of thinking. I was thinking grand-am, my bad. :embarassed:

Whats everyone getting for lap times for Spa in GT class? I'm at 2:22:xxx right now in the Ford GT. I was 3 seconds off the pace in the FIA race this last Sunday. And that was for division 2.

I'm certainly not that fast. Need practice. I've hardly been on Spa though I did sneak into your lounge the other night for a few quick laps. Think I had trouble getting past 2:25-2:26.

FlyinHawaiian77 · Nov 16, 2011

Sometimes I get frustrated with this track. So many moments when I'm like...DONT LIFT DONT LIFT DONT LIFT...(sigh) i should have lifted. :dunce:

Cowboys965 · Nov 16, 2011

Maybe I can race LMP this race!

I've been getting around 2:20 in an M3.

Would you mind me sending a fr so I could get some laps on Spa? I only drove on it for a few races and I need practice on it.

You don't need the DLC to race 👍

I should be able to send you one later on tonight. Anyone else? I've got Spa set up as the default in my lobby.

Thank you! I thought I had the RGT; I don't. I'm still going to try to get it by Fri. night.

Thank you, I don't think I'll be on tonight (tons of homework) so if you could send me one that'd be great!

Just recently decided to play GT5 again and this series looks like fun, i wanna do the GT class but i have a question. The BMW is listed as allowing 590hp, surely its a typo because even with all the add ons it only reaches 561. Im gonna try all the cars and see which i like, leaning toward the vette though

My M3 has 579hp, fully upgraded and oil changed.

You could probably ask Gatrs for one, he's bound to have a few lying around.

You need to break your cars in guys(200 miles) 591hp fully tuned and broken in.

Mine was 56x before I started breaking it in, then I've been racing only this car online, even against faster cars, and the horsepower stopped increasing at 579. Should I change oil over longer periods or not as much, I'm not sure why it just stopped like that.

That means you probably need an engine rebuild.
Whoever it is that needs the RGT, add me on PSN and I'll send you one tonight as long as I don't forget.
