Nice times everyone at a very tough track!

Great job Austin343 with the Panoz! Great job man-handling it around Suzuka with such a fast time!

Did anyone do reruns? I took a side trip to the 'ring for hotlaps just for fun....*snip*

I re-ran both my GT1 and GTS races but came up short by 5 and 8 seconds respectively, so my originally submitted times stood.

Respectfully,
GTsail
 
I got my first DTP from simple combat with other car.
And the second at last lap of tyres oversteering and tapping lightly a wall after spoon.
Tyres alredy melted the following lap was horrible causing me loose over 1.5 minutes :banghead:

I thought I had a good time. getting 7 laps per set...they were not even orange by the time I pitted.
I guess I was driving to careful.
My DPT came at the end of lap 33 :banghead: was going to pit anyways on 35 :crazy:

Did not even think about re running.

Congrats to those that survived the first Enduro and those that made Podium :cheers:
 
I always hate it when you to decide, like an idiot, to try and squeeze one more lap out of your tires and end up hitting the wall 800 times, and then you get a DTP and you can't pit to change your tires 'cause you're constantly getting DTPs.
 
Congrats to those that survived the first Enduro and those that made Podium :cheers:
That would be me, thrice.:D
 
Thanks again to Austin343 for mentioning his tyre strategy in GT1. Without it, I might have gone with the RM and done worse time wise.

edit: I went with RS. Sorry about the confusion.

I just post stuff like strategies for what they're worth, since with different car selections, weight penalties, and driving styles, the information isn't likely to translate directly over to someone else's race. So I don't deserve the credit; you do, because you had a hunch that your experience with hard tires might resemble mine, and you turned out to be right. 👍 Speaking of that, I would have ended up in third had I gone with what, at one point, I felt sure was the right strategy, which was the medium tires. :scared:
 
I am really happy with my result with only one run at each race. I had a hunch GTsail would dominate GTS and LMP seems to be crazy always (except east and his unrelenting wave of destruction)

congrats to all..
