I think it was just under 90 last year when I ran it in the DP.

90 laps for me last year on the McLaren running flat out all the way doing basically the same times:

Finally was able to get a tow on the final lap of quali and broke into the 43s with a 1:43.826, not the best I can do but kinda satisfied, now hoping for the best planning for the worst!
@Mac K I just saw your time, that's crazy! We had the exact same qualifying time an hour ago with @OwensRacing .002 behind and @MadRR .027 ahead, that would've been an awesome split if it would've been by times rather than iRating!
 
Thanks man, there was time to be found in that. Had a slight draft off a DP but a tow would have been nice :lol:. Good luck tonight guys.. I still wish it was split on Q time, I'll probably get blown away :p.
 
Good stuff man! 45 minutes away from the start of the season and one of the biggest races of the year!!
Go GTP!!!
 
I can only ever get a 1.43 if i get a draft going but i did a 1.44.1xx in the last qually so im defiantly happy about that, im probably gonna run tomorrow night's race though.
 
Just did a 1.44.2, with no draft. I'll be way off the pace in my split though, so we'll see how this goes. Good luck everyone!

Got pushed onto the grass and made contact, 8 mins repairs on lap 1 :grumpy:

And race over. I'll post a vid of how it happened later. (if i can figure it out)

In second, 15 minutes left, get DQ'd.

Thanks, iRacing.

EDIT: And I still gained iRating. Comical.

Anyone else having an issue similar to this? Whenever someone connects to a session I'm in, my screen gets really laggy for about two seconds, and this usually only happens in a highly populated server (such as practice for the Daytona 2.4). I turn off the connection from all my other devices (laptop, ipod, phone, etc) and it still does it. My connection is fine (wired). Am I better off maybe turning the graphic detail down slightly? (Daytona seems to be one of the "heavier" tracks anyways)

I had this issue. I resolved it by disabling the user connect message event and/or system events. It's in the .ini file, from what I remember.
 
That sucks, Mule. I was at 21/22 for the last half hour or so. On pins and needles. I was in 10th and gaining on the 9th spot when a guy multiple laps down decides he wants to race. :/ I was scared.

I'll give that a try, thanks. :)

As for my race, I was in the RUF in the 2nd split. I started 20th in class, and worked my way up to 11th. No spins, contact, etc and I was nice and consistent. Sure it's only 11th but in the 2nd split, I'm more than happy :)
 
I was in a full practice earlier tonight and it was a bit laggy for me also. There was even a couple comments made by other people as well. That was at Indy.
 
Brutal luck @Müle .

My race effectively ended on lap 1 when I had to go onto the grass to avoid a stopped car. I then was hit by another car avoiding the incident. After trying to salvage some safety rating, this happened:
 
My stupid internet connection went down right before the race and it's still down, so freaking pissed! I just hope I can get out of work on time for Sunday's race
 
Hopefully ill have a bit better luck than some others, I found a bit more pace shaving a few tenths off and getting a 1.43 w/o draft. Most likely gonna do the 8pm race tomorrow.

Do you mind me asking what your iRating is? Just curious what range was in the 2nd split.

Carlos
Horrible :lol: Was that you he took out?

Yep! Lol. My teammate and the guy in first were just wiskers away from devastation as well.

Anybody running the race in 4 and a half hours? I am going to try and stay awake and race it.
 
Well, my race ended after 15 laps. Was running 18th in class when a driver in front spun. He decided to come right back onto the track in front of me and the DP in 3rd and took us both out. That same driver was having complaints of blocking... in the first 15 laps of a 2 hour race. Driving standards on iRacing seem to continuously get worse.

Spotting for my teammate in the third split now.
 
Week 13 is a bad week to judge driving standards. Even so, outside of league play, Week 13 standards on iRacing are still better than standards any week of the year in any other game/sim.

Sucks when your race gets ended though, for sure.
 
My race went fairly well, almost the whole race i was pretty much by myself until later on in the race a crash between front running rufs and a top ruf getting dq'd sent me up to 5th so im pretty happy about it.

Was I in this race with you?

Friday night. I had a guy racing in the room that was on his last point and your post describes exactly what was going on.

When you/he made mention of it during the race, I was like man now that's some serious pressure.
 
Back on iRacing now I have my new PC. Love the RUF Track, great fun. Can't wait for the new season to start.
