Just be careful when you go for a walkabout on top of the mountain there's a couple of dropbears up there guys
If you saw a picture of @Heathenpride you will see the damage they can do
bruh....does GTP allow pictures like that?

It was my first time watching the race and 6 laps in a kangaroo gets nailed I was like daaaaang first an opossum at Daytona then a Roo here. I'll do my best to keep my animals (Friends) off the track at Sebring so we can keep Peta off our backs.
 
Man that was just sad... Now that picture won't get out my head everytime I race in Bathurst :(
 
I really hope the majority of the drivers in the support race are only doing 2:08.xxx - I will thoroughly enjoy my stint if that's the case :lol:

But seriously, the quali times for the support race are going to be much lower than a 2:08.xxx

Now I'm probably not the authority to be talking about Super GT, but 2'09 sounds a bit slow...
I know my Calsonic Skyline does around 2'00 on stock power, min downforce, and RS tires.
60hp is worth about 4.5s at Sarthe... so probably worth around 2.5-3.0s at Bathurst.
There's an 80hp difference between the two, so around 3.25s difference, perhaps?
Plus the RS ---> RH is around 5.0 seconds for Bathurst...

So...
2'00.000+3.250+5.000= 2'08.250

And this assumes the GT300s would even with my Calsonic Skyline at equal power, weight, downforce, balance, and tires. This is not close to the case. Super GT300s would be much faster than my crappy GT-R. Probably another second or so. Plus I'm horrifically slow in Super GTs, so take off another second.

That brings the time to 2'06.250.

I don't remember if that was ran with tire wear off, and even if so, it would take off another 1.5 seconds at MOST.

So 2'07.750 would probably be the pace speed.

Again, it has been a while since I've gotten on the game... almost a full month now... but something tells me 2'09 seems a bit slow.

:confused:

Why does any of that matter? The only thing that matters is that all the cars in the same class do the same lap times.

I'm only guessing what the pace time is. No s'mores, no mess. That wasn't even a claim against regulations, lol.
 
I'm going to say 2:02.xxx to 2:04.xxx for the main race pace and 2:05.xxx-2:07.xxx for the support race pace.

Cheers and see you guys on the track :D
