You know what, I already had a lot on my plate these past few months in this league so... With this poor TT lineup and the Sunday off, it can become a vacation week for me on the hosting side. If anyone wants to note the new settings and host it, you're more than welcome.

I think I'm with you on taking the week off.

We'll see where we stand when June rolls around.
 
Looks like, should we run this series next week, we'll have a return of this combo.

Reckon we'll see what the TT combo makers have for us Thursday before we decide whether to run next Tuesday or not.
 
Alright, If I don't have any emergency here tomorrow (we're in the middle of some renovation), I'll host a Tuesday TT evening. I already got the spec for the lobby.

We're gonna run the one on Deep Forest Reverse with the Toyota 86 GRMN '16 and the Days of Play one on Laguna Seca with the '22 Gr.3 Porsche.

Well, the Porsche combo will be replaced next Tuesday, with what, I don't know yet.

In an effort to make a 2 stop fuel map 1 a viable strategy we're going to run up the refuel rate to x15 L/sec for all cars. We'll try it out next week, if the new combo isn't a dud. If that still doesn't cut down pit stop time enough, we'll max it out at 20 L/sec and try that.

Yes @bublyman I realize we talked about just doubling it to 12 L/sec. :p If 15 L/sec makes a 2 stop an easy win, we'll start backing it off. Of course, converging strategies are still dependent on commensurate pace amongst the competitors.

We gonna run this on Tuesday next or let it time out?
 
What a great idea, running races of the current time trials. Dailies have been a little slow of late too and I was only just thinking what a great daily race this deep forest reverse would make.

I’ll start following that thread and hope the time zone etc works and we can get some racing going.

Made some adjustments to Fuel Consumption Rates in OP and Lobby settings sheet.

Having a difficult time reconciling some of these car's gas guzzling tendencies.
 
So, do we want to do the Gordini or the Mercedes TT next Tuesday? Or?

Gran Turismo 7 Online Time Trial: Grand Theft Gordini

This week's new GT7 Online Time Trial trades top speed for character, pairing the featherweight Renault R8 Gordini '66 with the tight Horse Thief Mile, while a Mercedes-AMG Virtual Championship qualifier opens up at Spa.

I’ll maybe leave that decision to you @Dragonwhisky. I’m likely going to get back home on late afternoon tomorrow, going to quickly prepare the Sunday night and a pretty busy Monday after all this. So i can’t give it a try to choose the better one.
 
Not that it's horribly expensive, it's actually one of the most inexpensive cars in the LCD, the Gordini is not currently available. There is also the tire grade PD chose to put on for the TT, Sport Soft? Really? According to the data SNAIL has, it comes from the dealership with Comfort Mediums.

I'm thinking we'll plan to do the Mercedes combo. Unless someone vehemently objects.
