Your not going to be copouts and all drive GT-Ones.
They want 5 guys so we can enter with 5 and they have chosen 2 mazdas & 3 bentleys. Kinda lame to me but it wasnt my idea... oh well.

IIf you can make the race time these drivers will compete

1. Jamman - [S2 - S5]
2. Jake - [S1 - S5]
3. Bombe - [S1 - S5]
4. Razor - [S2 - S5]
5. Tissimo [ S2 - S5]


Maverick - [S1] as a backup if he can race
Paginas - [S1] as a backup if he can race
Mu - [S2 - S5] as a backup if he can race

run any of these cars.

787b

If it's going to be 5-man teams I definately think you should race yourself. Idk if I'm able to race well. I shouldn't have any problems about making it, but my physical condition probably wouldn't be the best at the date they have planned so far.

But tbh, I'm afraid we, from GTP, will dominate... but let's see.

Hommes Awayyyyyy!

Can I suggest using the strong draft setting for this race. Laguna must be one of the all time worst tracks for overtaking. I remember in season 3 with strong draft there was next to no overtaking, so it won't be a huge help, but it would defenatly be better than using the weak setting.
--

Also, in regards to overtaking, I assume we shouldn't use the pit exit on the run down to turn 1, to get up the inside?
 
Knowing you, I'm guessing it involves crashing :sly: jokes

But seriously, to put the idea in to action, first you have to finish the race :p
 
The GT-One's advantage at any track is greatly exaggerated to be honest. You guys always think that any track with a lot of straight will suit the GT-One, but you're wrong. At Spa, the Audi is faster, because it runs 4 rings around it in sector 2, while only a handful of mph down in S1. Fuji, the Audi is faster. Suzuka, the Audi is faster, La Sarthe, the Bentley and company are close enough to beat it.
Why? Because the GT-One has poor mechanical grip compared to the rest, so any low speed corner, it's going to struggle during the corner, as well as on the exit out of the corner. IT also can't really carry as much speed through the chicanes, and not the fastest through the Porsche curves either.
 
Because the Audi is too fast! Ban it!

:lol: Not really, but we really need to start considering what to do for next season. The only cars that need adjustment is the Audi with some ballast added, and the Bentley with some ballast taken away. If anyone says penalize the GT-One, i'll have your head.
 
Holy shiz... Just did an 11.6 online with grip on real using 690

Knock off another half second and we are similar ;)

@Peter Wow you make it sound so bad. I must have won season 3 in a vastly inferior car the way you describe it :rolleyes: ;)
 
No, but back then the Audi wasn't used by anyone apart from Allin and mike, the Bentley was BK, who never got any practice. The GT-One now, today, with everyone far more competitive than before, is only really the fastest car at La Sarthe and maybe Monza. But even then, the GT-One is not unbeatable. Any other track, the Audi can be faster at.

The goal for next season is a level playing field for several cars.

whats this all about?? :dopey:
 
For next season, I think you should introduce a 2 tyre compound of soft and mediums BK. Could see different stragetys then the stock 2 stopper and adds variety! :dopey:

I'm not sure that would work. The medium tyres don't have much more durability than the softs. They seem exactly the same except softs are much faster. Everyone would probably just do one lap on them at the end or start. Unless you start making allocated windows in which your allowed to pit, or set some kind of rule for an amount of laps you have to spend on the medium tyre

Besides, it's gonna be 3 stop at Seca ;)
 
Soft and hard compounds then...

I'm doing what any good race driver does pre race...

Shower... TV... Curry....

Win lol
 
I have exterminators ridding my house of termites at the moment, so while I may be home to race, I may not be able to race. The GT-One is going to be uncompetitive anyway.

i said that 2 seasons ago.... i will find a way to do it but its difficult to enforce.

Why would you start on meds?

Wouldnt everyone qualify with their fastest time & start on softs..
I would mae it soyou only get 4 sets of tires during a race anyway.

You could ask every driver to remember what lap they pitted for mediums, then you could check via the replay to see and if they have, then they're fine!

Also, is there any chance I could turn up to a one off race today? Providing there are spaces of course, I'll leave if you have a full grid since I'm not actually part of the series. And I'll take the dreaded 787B to give it one more chance if there's a space. I do like the sound it makes. :dopey:

(Chose 787 over Audi because I want to get rid of the feeling of grip the Audi has in case I return to the series full time when it would of inevitably been nerfed)

Well it was never mentioned that you would qualify on the same tyree you start the race. But evn still, you could do 1 lap in the race on them, then you would be in clean air at the start while everyone else was battling up ahead. Maybe better than pitting for them at the end infact.
 
I wont be there today, my ps3 is on to host. Jake or Bombe will run the race.
Make sure your car is to regs if it has weight or hp reductons.

If 16 join and a series regular cant get in Tom or golfer will need to leave.
