Hahahaha two or three people in the lobby can confirm the times.

Decent race video uploading from a 4 lap sprint we did.

What lap times did the GT2 drivers manage to receive?

 

[hon1987]

In GT2, this track is weird for me! Been playing with the diff in the mclaren and managed to set a 1:30:xxx, but changed the settings again and managed to average 1:31:xxx/1:32:xxx! On the long runs my faster laps came at the end of the run, so this track definitely not as hard on tyres as Nurburgring GPF!

This track gives me so much headache. I'm bouncing everywhere from 1:31 to 1:32. I cant seem to get the results I want coming out of the S. Sad because this is where I thought I would shine.

yeah, the tires are a whole new ordeal on this track, it takes 3 to 4 laps to even warm them up here!

Indy is excellent track for racing. As you can see from the video I posted. Two wide for a lot of tue track.

Don't sweat the lap times. If your with in a Second or so the draft will make up a lot.

This is my home track. Hope to have a good showing.

 

[Jav]

Last night I managed a 1:25.031 on a long run the time came deep into the first stint so tire wear is much much better on this track.

 

[Jav]

First round results added to original post-4.

 

[Magzire]

Just pull a 1:24:940. Losing a lot of time on the first and last turn. Using the same setup as Nurb besides the gear ratio. Still got tuning to do

Wish I had a home track! I don't live anywhere near a road course!

200 laps!!!

Looks like another close race for the GT1 field!
What about GT2? Haven't seen much from you guys? Holding your cards close to your chest?

 

[Sephy]

Just spent some time practicing and dialing in. Best I've managed is a 1:33.184. The straight is killing me! lol

I know! The Ford is loosing a lot on the straight too, you need to make the most out of the corners on the Corvette.

 

[hon1987]

I can run consistent 1:32:x on spent tyres! Though I must admit playing with the diff ain't wielding good results yet!

From what I know, the race is going to be interesting with the slippy run off on the back straight! I've seen many people spinning (myself included) from misjudging the grip level there!

 

[Jav]

God that paint on Hallman is lethal!! AWD are gonna shine on this track! An incident free race here is gonna pay big!

 

[gogatrs]

I just had a 1:32.267.
I still have some tuning to get done though...

 

[Techy]

I managed to get 1:33:3xx non tire-wise. I think need more help at the starting corners, as I went wide a lot on that part, and the double hairpin at the south.

EDIT: I improved from that time above to 1:32:3xx

 

[gogatrs]

I swear the timer is wrong.
I just hit 1:31.667!
WTF?
I'm not that good lol.

 

[OwensRacing]

Anyone opening up a room tonight?

 

[t_ray_z28]

Jav, I borrowed some of your text for my series post... hope you don't mind!

 

[t_ray_z28]

Just posting again, in case anybody is interested, trying to start my own series on Tuesday nights! Have a look! https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=199554

You'r good!
Owens check your gifts, your trophy is waiting!

 

[FlyinHawaiian77]

Managed to get consistent 1:31's now. Played around with the ratio's a bit and that seems to have helped. My car also falls flat on its face when I hit the straights. Im sure there are other ways I can make up time.

Edit - Fastest is 1:31.389

 

[OwensRacing]

You'r good!
Owens check your gifts, your trophy is waiting!

Thank You, it's very nice!

 

[MitchZ06]

I'm only a second off the rest of you GT1 guys so I should be able to get in the mix.

 

[Jav]

I hope we can get you in Mitch! Looking forward to the race guys!
Drivers meeting message coming up tonight!
