As for race C. C'mon all you A/S people in Asia not qualifying. All 3 races over half the field didn't set a lap!

Easier said than done! Out of 7 laps qualifying with the Jag, I only managed 2 that actually counted because of so called short cut penalties .

 

[Veinz]

Vettel and Leclerc were pretty close, he did get his clock cleaned by Ricciardo though.

once my order from ocs arrives then I will be hitting up race c. Looks fun.

Washing tanks this morning so they can make more beer. Once i get home i will definitely be hitting up race C. Classic group C cars only for me.

Hope all of you are doing well and staying safe in this strange time.

They haven't "pivoted" into becoming a distillery yet to make hand sanitiser?

 

[Quakebass]

Is there a way to see what cars were used in the timesheets on Kudos Prime or some other 3rd party solution? As far as I’ve found GT itself is the only place that displays it.

I have had 4 or 5 races already and it is great fun, pretty clean so far, although I did have 1 guy take me out in the pit lane!

This website shows the cars but seems to have some missing

Just done race C. Set a low ish QT put me on 12th using the Peugeot HDi.
A bit of nudging here and there, people out braking themselves, including myself on the last lap. Nothing appeared deliberate. As people get used to the race and braking points this should be a good combo for the week ahead. 👍

 

[Veinz]

What are the top cars on the emea leaderboard for race c?

Thanks!

Is there a way or cut it down to regions? I’ve only found options for world and country specific.

No I don't think so
Though you could pair with KudosPrime leaderboards and sort of work it out maybe

Is the Gr.1 race at Le Mans the same as the last time it was on? Fuel saving and everyone in the TS050? Or have they actually changed something for once?

last time they had this combo I ran nothing but the older Porsche (962 ) . would pit at the end of lap 3 for tires and a splash. if I was up by around 6 to 7 seconds on 2nd I had a shot at beating the Toyota that was in second and most times I did. Normal start position was top 3. This race more than any other is like a 5 lap time trial in the sense the cars get spread out quickly and you just need to cut the best time possible on every lap. no need to dive bomb corners or force an issue cause you know what the cars are going to do on the straights.

Toyota==== good exit no top end
962======crap exit plenty of top end

people know this or they should I give you room beginning of straight you give me room at the end very simple

 

[Veinz]

Beating a dead horse here but this lobby really makes me wish they would like separate LMP1 from Group C.

For some reason they arent letting us use wet tyres.

Wet tyres are treaded race tyres. Sports tyres are already treaded.

Indeed, every time I remember that PD have run wet daily races with road cars it's been sport tyres with no wets.

As for race C. C'mon all you A/S people in Asia not qualifying. All 3 races over half the field didn't set a lap!

But you're not A/S

 

[Junkman55]

Thank you I really need to do race C more because for whatever reason race B has absolutely tanked my SR lately

I had a great week of racing the B race always driving with D rated driver’s qualifying no better then 9th mostly 11th and 12th in all races but one that was a 4th. All races I move up the field beating guy’s with better times, Why it was great was only three races I got a penalty and one second place. What I took away from this race week I had a better race days then the guy’s I passed .

Man, I would so love to see a 928 at 240mph on the Mulsanne.

Just tried the Seaside and it was populated with children learning to drive

ok I got it glad to see nobody ever makes a mistake,, I did say I think??

But you're not A/S

I dunno ...people are often saying I'm an A/S.........

 

[Groundfish]

C race

No problem,we are just making fun. We all make mistake. That being said I love the 928, it was the first Porsche I ever drove.

Edit: at the moment I am trying the non hybrids to make sure I pick the right one.
I am at 3:29:8 with the 787 now, but haven't driven the 962 yet. Once I find the fastest I still have to take the others out for a spin again,to make sure it's the car that's faster not me getting more used to it.
Still, the Jag is the best drive so far,love the road feel

 

[Pigems]

C race

Until we have to brake that is.

 

[The_Tullster]

Just ran race A on my alt. Victory, Pole and FL .
How is it possible to win with a 21.3 second gap to P2 in a three lap race??? My Q time was only 1.6s faster than 2nd Q, that shouldn't translate to more than 10 - 12 seconds even allowing for traffic.

T1 was mayhem, I think I got punted from P1 back to about P7 / 8. Fortunately T2, 3, 4 and 5 were nearly as messed up and I had P1 by several seconds about half way round the first lap.
Red S courtesy of all the sliding, spinning and bumping cars between T1 and T2 first lap . Oh well, one takes a chance and lives with the outcome, should be fairly easy to get back even in Race B.

Also did a race B before the race A, P5 > P3, blue S and nice and clean (up front anyway).
