I don't watch the qualifying... but that sounds great. How can one better like Peugeot than Audi anyway? Lol ;)
 
Darn. i might not be able to make this race becuase of 24 hours of Lemans Festivites. Ill try my best to be there. I'm assuming we all, since we are racing in a Lemans prototype series, have some kind of interest in Real life Lemans and will be doing something this weekend... This was the weekend to cancel. Not that Soccer match(not even relevant to the series...)

0.06 between 1st and 2nd. 0.45 between 1st and 4th. 0.65 between 1st and 6th. It will be good
 
1. i got GTP_Sam48 on my reserve list, but there was 1 or 2 others that wanted to jion.

2. do you guys actually want to postpone tomorrows race to watch the 24?
 
I wanted to join in. I'm not the fastest guy, but incident free I should be able to keep up. I'd like to hear some of these tunes as well, perhaps it'd gain me more pace.
 
Thats fine, you can be the official record keeper , just add me so i can edit it

I would, but as I said earlier I can't remember your username and your PM inbox has already reached max. You can just send it to me if you want :)

I see a lot of changes in the driver roster. No more Saubers... and a new Bentley driver, although we are quite familiar with him some of us :)

And I hope we are not postponing it this time. How about hiring a guy to be a spectator in the room to write if something interesting happens ;)

I don't mind either way. I have the whole 24 race on sky planner :D Just incase I miss something big overnight. Maybe a bit OTT but who cares. Only once a year so why not? :D

Although actually the Canadian GP qualifying is on at the same time as our race and I want to watch that. Although I could just watch it on I player after.

So I don't mind. Up to you guys :)
 
I too don't mind. :)

Right. The Bentley Speed 8 must be banned. Now Johny and I have been driving this and it is comfortably faster than any other of the LMP's. A full 1-2 seconds quicker than the 908 around Grand Valley. Now I'm not tying to be rude but, it's no wonder A7X is so damn fast. I mean the driver has to be good but the car is doing nearly all of the work.

Mav is fast either way. But surely, the Bentley is (now that someone actually shared a setup with me!) very good.

But you know, that's what the pre-season is for. To try and see if some of the cars are faster than others. And no one mentioned it back then...

EDIT: And to add to it.

1. It was a Peugeot 908 that won last race, followed by a GT-ONE. Not a Bentley.
2. Different cars are better on different tracks.
3. You guys are some of the faster ones. I don't think it's harming you that some are driving the Bentley anyway :) I understand you're afraid of Mav, but as mentioned, he's fast either way. And he's not overrated...

mav isn't faster than us because he drives the speed 8. He's faster because he is faster. I know because he's been around since before this series even started. He'll post a faster lap in the R10 if he wants .

Speed 8 is not as fast as 01' R8. The R8 was 3 seconds a lap faster than everyone else and 5 seconds at Le Mans . That's y it is banned , because in needed 70 KGs of weight just to slow it down to all the other cars speed.


Not everyone has posted about tomorrows race or watching actually Le Mans instead ...
 
Hey guys I raced with you after your race last weekend, a race that only had 12 people. My question is, can I run with you guys tomorrow? I will be there for sure as Saturday afternoons fit perfectly in to my schedule. Anyway send me a pm to let me know of the situation. Thanks.

Although there is the 24 of Leman and F1 qualy. Just let me know if the race is happening and ill try my best to be there.
 
What time (and time zone in which said time is) should I be ready to race guys?
 
Well, we can now all agree that Tom K isn't winning the race this year. Holy moly, what a crash by McNish... after just 52 minutes.

Thank God he is OK. 👍

Did anyone see the photographers on the other side of the fence taking pictures? Awesome shots of the car in midair while they are too busy taking pictures instead of running away lol.
 
They better be earning good money if they would rather take pics instead of running for their lives.

Imagine if the Audi had jumped (?) over the wall... what a mess, lol.
 
The Eurosport commentator said "I would not have liked to see that crash in an open top car."

Imagine how serious that would have been.
 
Unfortunately I don't have access to eurosport at the moment and instead am watching FP3. Fortuantly Crofty's giving updates. Just heard Audi 1-2 behind a safety car about 10 minutes ago :)

And they still are...

Now I'm just hoping for a GT class win for Jan Magnussen in the Corvette. Can't do anything else as a Dane :)
 
Anyone else watching speed channel coverage? They have a fat bloke from Kentucky barreling down pit row out of breath bumping into everyone for interviews, lol.

Eastern Time zone. 12:00 pm.

I'm then gonna postpone todays race to next week.
And this is the last race that will be postponed. I will be at my regular time though, Posimosh go ahead an add me to your friends list and we can get some practice today.

currently we have 13 drivers, and i think we have 1-2 drivers in reserve now. but a few of the 13 havent been on here in a week or too. So i dunno if they have forgot or just quit or cant make it anymore...............

I did actually want to watch Canadian GP qualifying. Plus I need more practice at Grand Valley.

Speaking of F1, just now in FP3 De La Rosa has become the 5th driver this weekend to crash. Vettel quickest :D
