Quick 15:00 race time as it's the only one I can do today. Got held up on the qual lap a bit (hard to find space sometimes) as I made a huge gap between myself and the car in front but two people got lose or spun and started back up right in front of me. Whatever.
Regardless, Q2. Lame race, 100% due to it was a glitched lobby. Q1 and I got away fine, but everyone behind was 'stuck.' They just sat there. When the time delta thing finally updated, P3 was ~15 seconds behind me. Thanks, Kaz!
So it was a two horse race and it was a fun lapish with the "Bentley" driver. Some back and forth, good racing room left, respectful and all that good stuff. Unfortunately he went wide going Tetra Rouge (on lap two) with me right behind and it cost him a ton of time, so no more fighting and drafting passed each other on back-to-back straights.
I pit on lap six as I was worried if I pit on lap five and the gaggle of cars who were behind didn't (thanks to their glitched delayed-start) I'd end up in the middle of them.
Not my favorite combo; would've been better with some weather! Seemed like a Daily C. I seriously considered running the McLaren as it is just really fun to drive here. But ultimately, I decided the four second lap time delta was too much.
Anyway, obligatory screenshots.
GT1's, how is fuel looking for the Toyota? I won't be able to race until later tonight with probably only one shot at it. Are you fuel saving, short shifting or refueling in the pits?
Thanks!
Very very minor savings required. If you're winding that pig out thru every gear for the full 10 laps you may be in trouble. Some some drafting, coasting, and/or short shifting you'll be fine. And when I say that, I mean for like a lap (total)... if even. I wasn't trying to fuel save, but keeping an eye on it and finished with like .3 laps left (which is a lot of LeMans).
