@TexHill - did the new playseat F1 live up to your expectations with sciatica? Inquiring minds are curious 😂

Yep, worked great! My sciatica didn't bother me at all during the race.

I appreciate everyone's participation this afternoon. It was an awesome turnout, and a lot of fun!!!

Congratulations thats gotta make it more enjoyable for you...

So glad for u finding a good solution.

Now put that bad boy to use 😂 Cup Practice is nightly

Again, I would like to thank everyone who participated in Saturday's endurance race. It was a great turn out, and a great time had by all!

Taking inspiration from Sunday's round three, I think we'll pay homage to NASCAR of the late '60s & early '70s for this week's endurance race. During this period of NASCAR racing, a fan could just stroll on down to his nearest dealer, and if he had the means, could purchase an exact clone of the car used by his favorite driver. Boy, those were the days!

So, we're going to Daytona with the following car options:

• '68 Dodge Charger R/T 426 Hemi
• '70 Dodge Challenger R/T
• '70 Chevelle SS 454
• '69 Pontiac GTO "The Judge"
• '70 Plymouth Superbird

I realize that some of these cars never competed in NASCAR, but our choices for real life examples are pretty thin in GT7. We will use all three compounds of racing slicks. Drafting and pit strategy should make this race interesting!

Will tuning be allowed for like transmission and lcd or Bop.

 

[TexHill]

Yes, but I need to do some testing later tonight to determine how much.

An pp limit and tuning options would be nice
So we can have time too tune cars before race.
Thanks
U could just open all tuning and set pp limit
Lots of tunes online

I'm at work, so my ability to test or search is limited. What is the average PP that you are seeing with a tune for these five cars?

Can test later, might have too be a hp/lbs limit due too 3 tires compounds
500hp plus would be cool with racing on racing tires

 

[TexHill]

Everyone participating in today's endurance race can tune their cars up to a PP of 690 when on RACING HARD tires. I realize that the PP will change with the other two compounds of tires, but that is the point.

Engine and transmission swaps are approved. Top speed should not be set higher than 330km/h (205mph).

Thank you.

689.99pp/Rh tires/330km/h (:
Might build one of the Dodges but always been a fan of Pontiac.

I vote either these, or Sarthe with LMPs

No endurance race this weekend. My wife and I are going out of town for the weekend.
