Project CARS 2- Multi-class racing

[The_American]

No, YOUR car class is always one of the classes. So it leaves 3 class slots remaining.

So, even when there will be an even number of AI, my car makes the class the larger class. That's what i'm getting at.

Almost 24 hours in and I think this is the best feature of the game. LT3.0 is a close second(the 30 minute qualifying and 12 minute Career feature races, have been great). The most I've done are 3 classes. I'm doing a mock Super Taikyu(8 classes IRL) using: GT3, TCR, G40 Junior and Clio Cup. Can't wait to see 50 car grids/6 or 7 classes, in PC3. On a new, more powerful, console of course.

I'd love to be able to race 100 cars on a game. With Clio, GT3, TCRs, GT4s and a GT3 Cup class, it would be crazy cool.

Hell yeah! If I move up to a PC, I'd flip for real. Oh and I switched the G40 Junior to a GT5. 60 extra horses, should make that class a bit more lively at Fuji.

The first two would be cool, Indycar would do better against Formula Renualt 3.5

Gr.5 & Gr.6 at Le Mans is going well. The #46 935 is scary. Have to steer it with the throttle, similar to the E30 M3. Big fun.

Did 1 lap Daytona Road Course, 4pm, medium clouds, LMP 2/GT3/GT4. Used the yellow 488 GT3(sound awesome!).

Feels so real from the start to Turn 1. Hitting the banks and getting up to speed is just like being there. I want more.

 

[05XR8]

I might give this a try: V8 Supercar vs McLaren 570S vs Go Kart.

Just in case anyone want to replicate the 4 hours of Portimao. Practice & results now available

GTSL is hosting an IMSA style league (LMP2, GT)

Watching Group C&A at Sydney Motorsport Park. Might have to try this.

I needs to do this offline.


Hopefully, we get a same Manufacturer option in an update.

GTB/GR.5/GR.A/GTA are working wonders right now. I just leave out GTA when running a 24H and night race. Still, so much action on the shorter tracks. Watching cars exit and enter the pits and on track, look so cool during replays.

Ginetta G40 and Ford Escort (Racing) are almost too evenly matched it's really fun. The advantage of the Ginetta's extra gears means better acceleration but it's 30hp down and a little heavier so the Escort (in capable hands) can outmaneuver a Ginetta.

I tried GT5 and GTB at Barcelona National at 80/100. I assumed with AI set to at least 80 they tune themselves and would adjust the gearbox for longer straights but they don't. They still top out around 130mph so the fight is ruined when we get to a straight. Online would be different since people would adjust gearbox for top speed.

@05XR8 What race settings do you use to keep the cars clustered? I usually set it to enough laps to equal ~15min and force mandatory pit stop so classes become staggered. What's your way?

I also made this awhile ago but haven't updated it with the new DLC cars

I have AI at 100/100. Qualy: 10 minutes or Random start position. Race: 5-7 Laps, Mandatory Pit stop.

I find Gr.5 cars lap really quick
Algarve
Hockenheim GP
Red Bull Ring
Silverstone National
Nurburgring Sprint
Watkins Glen any configuration
Catalunya
Most of the mid-length versions of tracks keep the racing close,. Many races I could share. I have to screen shot them, so becomes a hassle.

 

[05XR8]

Just did a quick 11lap/23min 48sec Dubai 24H. GT3/GT4/TC= fun times.

Enjoying the live race too?

Sun should be rising in an hour or so

 

[05XR8]

I need an option to stop the race and park cars on the grid.

 

[Spacegoat]

GT3/GT4/TC= fun times.

Haven't tried the TC with GT3/GT4 yet. That could make some interesting grids. Are the TC cars a good match for GT4?

TC cars handle lovely once the rear tyres get some heat. Good power versus GT4. I set AI at 100/100. Gives me a mixed grid between TC & GT4 during qualifying.

 

[Spacegoat]

I set AI at 100/100.

Yeah, I always have the A.I at 100 aggression. Normally set the strength between 50-70 though, depending on if I'm really familiar with the track or not. Haven't had the guts to try them at 100 yet.

Gives me a mixed grid between TC & GT4 during qualifying.

That sounds good, I'll have to give it a go.
