I worked on my Truck setup for Charlotte. My fastest lap was 29.894 and it was really comfortable. I think I can try keep myself 100% on the throttle and see what will happen.
smuffyatfcpSo I’m going to run the DP in Grand-Am this season. The car feels nicer to drive (for me). anyone have any ideas for me to paint my DP?
this is the season i plan on running this season. great advise.

Say what?
**About being sick with fever**
So It seems I have been moved to Division 1 this season. A bit scary lol. What is the decider to what division you are put in? Because I didn't run a complete season last season and got moved up from Div 2 to Div 1.
I think he means he is going to run that series this season and that since not qualifying screwed you over so much that you in turn gave good advice for him to qualify.
Hopefully I feel a lot better in the next few days and am able to get a race in in the Grand Am series with the McLaren. Had an enormous fever of 40.1゜C (104.1゜F) yesterday and it has started to come down now. Anybody know if I was right about the mid 2:20s being a good race time?

iRating, but I'm not sure on the exact cut off points for each division.
Think it may be simple.
Say the number of people on iRacing is 5000.
500 people per division.
Top 500 go in D1
Next 500 in D2 and so on.
Any big gaps between last in one division and first in the other get polished out.
Or more complicated:
Use an average sample (Mode, Mean, etc.)
Say for this average is 1875 iRating.
Once average is got make groups based on iRating each going up in equal steps.
D10= <1000 iRating
D9= 1000-1250 iRating
D8= 1251-1500 iRating
D7= 1501-1750 iRating
D6= 1751-2000 iRating
D5= 2001-2250 iRating
D4= 2251-2500 iRating
D3= 2501-2750 iRating
D2= 2751-3000 iRating
D1= >3001 iRating
Pro= Pro License Drivers only. No matter what iRating they have.
Now I don't say either of these methods are correct in any way, but I suspect it would be one or the other.
Last time I do a Grand Touring Cup race without qualifying in the Jetta, it's bad news especially bad at LRP. Fighting through the Mazdas and two of them crash of in to the wall and hit me on two seperate laps and break my steering. Still fast enough to be catching 1st but not long enough in the race.
Had I qualified I could've avoided the carnage and cruised to a win with no incdents. Instead I get a 2nd with two x4s. :S
Qualifying is very important in MC racing. Especially when you are running the quickest class of the bunch. Those Jetta's starting from the back piss off the other classes.
I'm 2508 irating and in Division 2. It's definitely to do with iRating because I haven't done many races since I bought iRacing and yet have moved up to Division 2.
Yes the divisions go off of irating. Matty is actually pretty close. If seems to vary each season some but just to give you a general idea in oval im at 3016 and Im in D2 and it seems for oval D1 starts around 3500 or so and in road Im 2208 and Im in D3. Not sure as much about the road side where D1 would start but I would imagine a little lower than oval since less people race road in compared to oval.
Managed a 1:24.2 at Okayama with the Corvette with the fixed setup. It feels good but I'd imagine a custom setup would be even quicker, however I can't find one on the forums. Does anyone have one they wouldn't mind sharing? Jav?![]()
Sorry man, haven't touched the Vette in quite a while and I do miss it but work these days is pretty crazy no time for nothing...
Division is determined by your iRating. I'm at 2800 and I'm Division 2 this season.
Sorry man, haven't touched the Vette in quite a while and I do miss it but work these days is pretty crazy no time for nothing...
Tell me about it, I get 2 days off a week and its hard to get some iracing in when theres so much stuff that needs to be done in those 2 days. I keep saying im gonna run a full schedule in the GT series but it has yet to happen lol.
