American Le Mans Series Season 3

[rb26x]

Ok guys please make this easy on me as I don't know all of you. On your auto message settings write down ALMS or at least GTP on your greeting so I know you belong here.
Room is up:

1472 - 6118 - 3701 - 4256 - 9456

I don't think I'll have time, but if I don't my name is rb26x, same as here

 

[Techy]

You're more than welcome to as well.
I haven't seen as many of yours though.
Look in TT13's thread history for his pics.

Yeah, I haven't got around it yet >.< I think I'll have time this weekend.

 

[ddsLeonardo]

Room is full =((

EDIT: Won't those who have participated in previous races have priority upon newcomers?

 

[rb26x]

Room is full-.-

I'm sorry, brother cut his finger open with a knife, my mom just about had a heart attack. I'll be at the ER for two hours, enjoy you race.
EDIT: I'm back 5 stitches for my brother. Is the race done?

Ok guys, some minor thing need to be adressed before the season opener.
If you go off track do not come straight back to track without any regards for the people arround you, do not keep your foot planted and your eyes closed. If you can't handle an LMP car just step down to GT and you'll have a much more enjoiable experience(yes Golegion I'm talking to you).[/rant]

With that out of the way all went fairly well, everyone did a great job and had a pretty clean race.
Last, I think this should be included to the main post:

Proper racing etiquette for multy class racing

​

Gatr, I think you should consider the possibility of including the LMP2 class. I can help you with the specs for the cars and have the class up and runing by tuesday next week, 4 LMP1, 4 LMP2 and 8 GTE cars on the track sounds really good and should make for some great racing!

Did anyone bother with the standings for the race? I know I took 6th or 5th, not sure which since FH dropped out last second with DNF

The Ford is quite enjoyable and easy to drive aside from the quickly disappearing front tires, and also I'll have pics soon. Just a few for this one, mainly focused on one battle between the vette and yellow M3. Sorry, LMP not too many pics with you guys. Maybe someone else can do that

If you could put up pics for me I'd be thankful, I am the yellow M3, problem is someone rear-ended me hard in a LMP causing the battle back. My computer is 10 years old and my Netbook is out getting a new HDD so I can't transfer any pictures.

What about the 458 and the orange M3? We were 2nd and 3rd at the time

How was the rain?
And Jav, after hearing some of the complaints about some LMP drivers, and some of the things that I've observed, LMP1/2 could happen. What does everyone think?
Problem is deciding which cars go where...

 

[Troylee2601]

Great race guys lots of fun....especially the battles with Cowboys965 and Rb26x untill I totally screwed myself at the end. I should have never changed to rain tires.

 

[Blaze_409]

hmm. the GT drivers gave me heart attacks....everyone kep on moving and switching lanes right as i was coming up behind them....i got held up in so many places. then i just gave up on catching Pipi when i ran into the back of GTAMann in eau rouge losing all momentum...Then Ronin caught and passed and i just paused till finish in total dissapointment.....the most frustrating was that i had a understeering car and it never rained........in hindsight i should have kept my dry setup.

Easy, leave the closed cockpit cars, BMW and Audi R8s in LMP1 and the rest of the open cockpit cars go to LMP2 at 950/480.

I was on intermediates at the end when I passed you, practice yesterday helped me with that decision. I didn't mind if you beat me, being in an M3, but that stupid Ferrari on the other hand.....
Honestly, I'm really upset that I crashed right in the beginning, I could've at least broken up the Ferrari party in the front, a small chance at even getting the GT win.

 

[gogatrs]

Can someone please upload the replay data to mediafire or something?
I'd like to watch the replay.

Oh sorry Blaze. The path I took was my usual racing line and I thought you'll pass from the left, while I move to the left to leave you space.

@ Gatrs

I have the replay, mainly for pictures. I'm not sure how to retrieve the data.

I might be able to take a video with a camera with ok quality if nobody else has a better alternative.

Next week we will split up those damn Ferrari's and send them straight back to the Pastaland they came from!!!

I will try to upload the replay tomorrow.

Sorry bout the DNF guys. I usually stick with it till the end. I made the mistake of choosing racing intermediates in the beginning. I knew I was going to be slower than everyone but I was counting on the rain to come on early and make my move then. I think it was lap 7 when I decided that I needed to change to the racing softs. By then a podium finish was way out of the question. Still no excuse to post a DNF. Sorry about that again guys. I promise to finish each race from here on out.

Gatrs, any idea on what the car/class situation is like? I'd like to stay in GT with the Ford but I doubt if its open. Any chance we can have more than two of the same cars? Only because GT seems to be popular and most of the cars (besides the jag =/) are taken.

 

[gogatrs]

I think that if you hit replay theater on GTLife, then hit triangle on the replay you want there's an option to export data to XMB or something similar.
Then you go to the XMB, and I believe it puts it where the game save is. Copy to thumbdrive, upload to media sharing site.

it wasnt your fault. It was just me realizing i could not escape being held up in the middle of eua rouge lol. i half decided thinking i could still pass you then for some reason i ended up just running right into the back of you

The Ferraris were designed by drunks too, just fancy drunks who drink wine. Really though, they handle great and brake short, good cars. The BMW's are just great.
