FRL ~ 3rd WSPC 500k win goes to Panoz at the line!

[RealJaySee]

You are reserve at moment but can promote you to guaranteed spot if you are 100% about next weekend.

Nope, still not sure I can join the race, will only know it last minute. Hopefully I can make it, I drove the car for the first time without TC yesterday, it's quite challenging

ATTENTION ALL DRIVERS:

So BoP testing last night showed that the car physics had been changed after the most recent update. Beforehand all cars were easily 3:02 capable and on low fuel a sub 3:00 was possible. However physics wise the cars have been changed.

OP is now updated with new car weights - The Jaguar, Mazda and Sauber have all received weight increases. However this is to BoP them the level of the slowest car in the wake of the update - the Nissan. All cars are now able to run 3:05's according to @LancerEvo7 and also fuel mileage has been adjusted. Pre update 8-13 laps was the spread on the car fuel mileage, now they all appear 10 to 11 laps, which actually improves and even things up. Also makes the race a definite 3-stopper.

So with regards to this, the race was scheduled for this coming to Sunday, however if people want it pushed back a week to the 2nd December I will do - from an organiser view I can host no issue either day and I know I might get a couple extra days if it is the 2nd as well, but of course don't know how this works out for you who have signed up, so please let me know.

Updated entry.

I'm OK with either date and you'll need to post the new specs.

Jag +3 weight, Nissan -2, the other two +2.

 

[Standard_FV]

The 25th works best for me since I will be doing a 2.4 hours at Le Mans with gr.4 on the 1st. Will still race on the 2nd if the event gets pushed back!

 

[GTPorsche]

The revised livery for the 59.

 

[TNR_KING_FILO]

Can we push it back? i still need to make a livery

Stop being slow then.

Also updated OP again - error with Mazda spec fixed.

That livery though

 

[Furinkazen]

Still a few spots left that i'm fairly confident of getting at least partially filled.

@Furinkazen, please consider my entry for this race.

 

[Furinkazen]

Predicting a low 3:04 for pole after testing all the cars earlier. My XJR-9 certainly hasn't got the pace it had before but it'll do just need a change of colours that's all...

No shortcut penalty? I'm suprised by that

 

[Foxed]

Is this still on for tonight?

If that’s what it said in the OP on Friday night that’s what I had

 

[Furinkazen]

Not sure why you would need it.

Yea.

If that’s what it said in the OP on Friday night that’s what I had

You're good then.

 

[Furinkazen]

Slight delay to proceedings, @RACECAR get online you got something to share goddamnit.

 

[Furinkazen]

Room up, Q at quarter to.

 

[Furinkazen]

@swiftsmith @RealJaySee @RACECAR you coming? Q in 12, race in 47.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Might've had a shot at a podium were it not for the start shenanigans. Still better result than I expected considering my level of interest.

 

[raceorama123432]

Probably could have got a better result had it not been for a couple incidents and my pit crew glitching (?). Still 6th isn’t bad. Congrats Panoz and racecar in particular for keeping it clean!

 

[Furinkazen]

Brilliant first stint, 2 stop possible and a chance at the win and then second stint saw every lag related incident going happen.

As an event though, excellent.

Stewards inquiry inbound.

 

[RACECAR]

Would again like to apologize for the late showing (and lack of "Sharing"). Wasn't counting on a family emergency today and the subsequent Stay to make sure all things were ok (thankfully, all is well).

As for the race, got rammed straight off the track on the pace lap and so had to start from pit lane. Not a bad race considering how way off pace I was.

Should tune your setup for lower downforce. Most of us were running minimum on that.

But yes, the pace lap and the start were a mess.

 

[Spirit]

Tomfoolery aside congratulations to @Panoz for a well fought race and victory. @TNR_KING_FILO, sorry about the coming together in Arnage. I overdrove the car into the corner and bogged down on the exit to prevent a spin, and nowhere for you to really go but into the back of me. Well done on 3rd place. I'll have my race replay available on YouTube sometime this week hopefully.
