FRL~WSC IX - THE RACE: O'RAMA. GT-P CHAMPION: LANCEREVO7. GT-O CHAMPION: JAMMY21Open

[Niop]

Are there any openings? I'd like to sign up for the GT-P class.

 

[Panoz]

Going take the drop here, just lost all motivation on continuing.

Maybe putting light damage for future Sierra events could help.

Damage isn't issue. For me, parents deciding to walk across where TV was. 4 corners wrecked, currently sat near pit exit. Will roll car out for the finish.

I can probably only run part time, but the Jaguar will be fine with me.

No problem 👍

Had to leave then, done 14 laps after just being lapped by @LancerEvo7 and getting damage on both my previous 2 laps. Didn't feel like going for another half an hour to finish in the same position. The fact that my parents went bed cemented my decision to leave

 

[Furinkazen]

So i'll be classified 7th overall and 3rd in GT-P despite being 12th and 6th when I withdrew

Someone else in GT-P pull out?

Siggers just withdrew.

 

[Panoz]

If the Sierra event is shorten to say 12 laps, I might have continue on instead dropping out.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Epic race.

 

[Furinkazen]

So errr. Rules say drivers whoa re running at end are classified above those who are not.

I am running, and 8 laps down. 3rd, half pts. Siggers and Chris did more laps but didn't "finish" but did full laps pts. So errr?

 

[raceorama123432]

2nd

 

[LancerEvo7]

2nd

Perfect position for the #2 driver. And a lap down to boot.

 

[FlyingFox]

Another 5th for me

Were you in a GT-O+ class or something? Crazy pace!

 

[jammy21]

I have done my home work...

 

[LancerEvo7]

Really disappointed I didn't break the 8:00 mark though.

 

[jammy21]

This was one of the hardest race I have done in GT. My arms are still little hurting.

I could still see that you did your home work as well.

Really disappointed I didn't break the 8:00 mark though.

 

[RACECAR]

Well, hope to be joining you guys next week. I really hope for my connection not to crap out on me.

I have done my home work...

I have yet to check what lap times you were running, but they seemed to be quite a lot faster than mine. I suspected the Toyota would have a disadvantage especially on the uphill sections, so coming in in 2nd was quite alright.

Had to start in 5th and fell back another spot at the start due to long 1st gear and little torque, but got up to 2nd about midway through lap 2. At the beginning of lap 3 I started to wonder how far ahead Jammy was, and tried to find his arrow on the map, but strangely I didn't see one. I only saw the GT-P field miles ahead and then my own arrow. Stupidly looking at the track-map I missed a corner and got damaged. Had to go around with engine and tyre-trouble for almost a whole lap and lost over a minute.

That was basically it in terms of competing for the win. I had contemplated 2-stopping the race, but 6 laps probably were the limit in terms of tyre performance, so I knew I couldn't go to the end with that strategy, so I switched to 5-lap stints with stops after laps 3-8-13. I saw from the pit-indicator that Jammy was already 2.5 minutes up by the time I made my second stop, so I continued at a safe pace and reeled in 2nd place in the end.

 

[jammy21]

My target was to do all laps under 9min30s (flying lap time) but not managed to do that
I did 4 laps stints and last two stints were 3 and 2 lappers when I noticed that I might do 17 laps. I could do 5 lappers but I didn't want to make that risk to hit the wall/rock and get damaged.

Heads up - largest entry list in perhaps 2 seasons for the AUTOSPORT 6 HOURS. Note we are using the Classic layout like last season.

 

[LancerEvo7]

At least for the rest of the season you'll only have to update the track name in the thread title. 👍

Is Le Mans double points?
