So this is going to be the ideal livery for the MPT if they give me the green light to do so. Its a work in progress but if I do get the green light, I will have this finished by Wednesday or Thursday.

Excellent. I will be awaiting then. :)
 
Points updated:


How do the total points and drop points work again? Like how do I have more in total points but behind Fullness with drop points. Just curious.

Oh it's tight at the top in all divisions. Should be an interesting final race.

Don't choke!

No pressure lol


Exactly, the top 3 in Gold and Silver could easily go home with a championship from a good result. The top 2 in bronze are super close. All these 1 to 4 point battles. Pretty exciting.

Total points is your total points accumulated during the season
Drop points is your total accumulated points minus your lowest scoring race or a O score if you missed a race

So wouldn’t I be ahead? Math is difficult lol.
 
Was about to ask about Drop Totals, but its answered. Why am I behind Drummer though?
 
@aedenmaddok looking forward to the finale this week! It’s been a great points battle all season and you’ve kept me super honest in terms of off track excursions and even small mistakes :)

Im also always amazed at how much you can get out of a set of tires. Hope to see you on track at dragon trail for great race to close out the season

The rough draft of the Team Oreca Monster GTS-R Prototype Livery. I'm heading to sleep so I can come up with ideas or suggestions.

Don't think you guys will have it that easy! I'll be challenging for the overall win too, and even more next season!
 
Ok the 202 total threw me off. Okie dokie.
I just have you edged out with my 1st arl missed race (stupid orientation) i guess. Regardless itll be a hell of a race for 3rd. Anyone from 3 to 7 can claim 3rd with the right finish.

Yes, it has been quite a closely contested battle; I've really enjoyed it.

One of my greatest strengths/weaknesses is that I'm a smooth driver, not a fast driver. I have little trouble maintaining even the softest tires throughout an entire stint with a full fuel tank. However, I have trouble pushing harder to make a hot lap time without making mistakes. For example I've averaged a qualification position of 3.00 in Bronze this season and have never achieved a pole position...

Average Bronze Qualification Position:
racefan8850 ............ 1.14
BPeacock27 ............. 2.86
aedenmaddok .......... 3.00
AfraidRacer .............. 3.50 ...... *Not including week 3, before placement (but he would have had pole).
Drummer1979 ......... 3.50
TurboTacho .............. 3.50
Cornbread243 ......... 4.33

Yet, I do much better during the actual races...

Average Bronze Fastest Race Lap:
racefan8850 ............ 1.71
aedenmaddok .......... 1.86
BPeacock27 ............. 3.29
AfraidRacer .............. 3.38 ...... *Not including week 3, before placement (but he would have been 1st).
TurboTacho .............. 3.50
Cornbread243 ......... 4.00
Drummer1979 ......... 4.75

Someone was doing some MATHamphetamines
 
I feel you, the mids were my Aquiles heel yesterday. You have to ask much more of the car when using them. Brake a bit harder but mantain the car straight, as a slide is much worse on the mediums.
Imagine you have to keep them in higher temps. than the softs...
I would have used a flare torch on and off to keep these tires hot. If I asked too much on the car it'll break into a spin or not even turn. I actually tried drifting the car or at least put the car into oversteer to compensate for the tires.

But it's really fun to drive a turbo car around the circuit, the punch just gives you a surging kick all the time if you're not careful.
