[GT6] Super Taikyu - Motegi 1 Hr EnduranceFinished

[CAMikaze]

Would be cool to have a endurance on the other Japanese tracks every week

S-Tai raced at Fuji and Suzuka as well in the 2014 season in regards to tracks that are in GT6. Other tracks that hosted the series include Autopolis, Sugo and Okayama. So what other tracks in GT6 would have S-Tai races if we were to have a go at a series? I'm thinking Grand Valley Speedway, for one.

Unfortunately, something came up and I will not be able to attend tonight's race. Hope it goes well. Have fun guys

Tsukuba would be beautiful

 

[Downhill Dino]

Fingers crossed I still have my tune here. I'll be on in an hour or so.

Also, do you think we have a potential series in the making here? If you like, I'll post a link to the PDF file for the 2014 S-Tai regulations for possible reference material. It's in Japanese but I imagine there are some good translators out there.

Actually that's what I base my stuff off of. I'm only using the basics and not bothering with some technicalities.

That's a shame! See you in the classic F1 races.

I have a calender in the making.

S2000 sounds great after 1.14

I think I have my tune mostly worked out.

Grip reduction was set to low, lap times I posted are invalid.

 

[akira86]

I was running 2:06 yesterday now 2:09s wtf

See on track soon!

That's weird. Are you sure you're on the same tires? Are you comparing an offline time to an online time or vice versa?

 

[paoloevans]

Just ran a 2:06.1 by the way.

I think I have my tune mostly worked out.

2:05.4 best lap so far, sub 2:05 possible.

Lol I'm doing 2:05's in the Evo and I'm ment to be a class higher?!!! Oh well should be interesting

 

[Ettick]

Grip reduction was set to low in my lobby
Forgot to change it after the new update

2:05.5 best lap with real grip reduction

Room is up! GTP Super Taikyu Private

1472-4711-0167-3382-3909


Remember rain tires and no pace lap.

 

[Downhill Dino]

@gurizzi @FlyinHawaiian77

Don't forget!

 

[Downhill Dino]

@gkgamer @FlyinHawaiian77 Time's running out! The countdown begins.

 

[Ettick]

My suggestions:

1. Sightly longer races. Maybe 90 min but I'd be fine with longer.
   
2. Super GT style success ballast.
3. Make the classes have more of a speed difference.
4. Maybe make FF a little faster to keep up with tire wear if you haven't done so already.

Otherwise it's good imo.

My suggestions:

I honestly would like longer races but for testing purposes I made this shorter.

2. Super GT style success ballast.

I don't know about that.

3. Make the classes have more of a speed difference.

ST-2 and ST-4 are supposed to have around a 5 second speed difference. The S2000 was a problem child to begin with and it exceeded my expectations in this race. Back to the drawing board...

4. Maybe make FF a little faster to keep up with tire wear if you haven't done so already.

I tried having them at a pace similar to that of the real cars but they're too fast for that. Might be dropping the tire compounds a notch, or two.

If there was a STai-5 class in this series, the Abarth 500 would fit in since the engine capacity is less than 1500 cc.

And if there is to be a mandatory pitstop in the race regardless if it was 60 or 90 minutes in length, you should have the setting for minimum # of pitstops set to 1 in the lobby.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Turbos have a x1.7 on displacement policy so the Abarth ends up in ST-4.

The Starting grid for todays race

 

[akira86]

@G_Parrilla takes the from the first turn with @paoleoevans following

@paoloevans loses it for a moment but recovers quickly while @Downhill Dino watches

 

[akira86]

@paoloevans and @Downhill Dino fight each lap

@Ettick ran solid 2:06's lap after lap while dominating ST-4 and slowly catching up to the ST-2s

@CAMikaze lurking and slowly closing the gap on @gurizzi

 

[akira86]

@CAMikaze tries to Attack!!

And he succeeds!!

Night time rolls in and @Downhill Dino Begins to lead as @G_Parrilla pits

@gurizzi comes back at @CAMikaze and tries to overtake in total darkness

The moment @paoloevans knew he was too drunk

@G_Parrilla continues on as i wipe out and wait for him to pass

 

[akira86]

The Yellow S2K driven by @Ettick still charges forward with in seconds of @paoloevans

@G_Parrilla Takes the checkered Flag with no close competition

@Downhill Dino Comes in second

@paoloevans Comes in at 3rd

@Ettick Comes in 4th

@gurizzi In 5th (if i remember correctly)

@CAMikaze In 6th (i hope i didn't get it wrong)

Forgot to take a pic of me finishing and of Dawe, but heres my launch at the begining of the race. FWD FTW

 

[akira86]

Hope you guys enjoy the photos, there were alot more but seemed to get repetitive

 

[paoloevans]

They are awesome mate, especially like the one where I'm too drunk lol

 

[akira86]

we need to make this a series with very fast tire wear and fuel so itl make things fun

 

[akira86]

@Downhill Dino are we going to extend this to a series

 

[gkgamer]

I apologise for miserably falling asleep before race time. I definitely hope there will be (a) next time(s).Go series

Expect the series coming around January, and at the latest early February.

Cool any more spot races in the meantime?

 

[Downhill Dino]

There's the possibility and it would take place at Suzuka Circuit. Currently reworking the cars for balance, probably allow more options and bring back ST-5. If there were another spot race it'd be in the first or second week of January.
