That's my job; literally. :grumpy: I'm the one who has to wear a hazmat suit at work. Well, okay, mainly just a respirator, but it's bad enough.

Always, but, I hear the RX-7 is a bit too fast. :lol: :sly:

Which one? There were many. Especially James joining for 5 minutes, spinning and getting passed by Squash (who had already gone off on the same lap).
 
Anyone going to post Rolex photos here?

We might as well just make that the central "post photos of GTP events" thread. :lol:

I think the Toyota's were a bit quick also, didn't they have more power and less weight than the RX-7's? Or was that me pulling a Rolex S2 and downgrading my car to silence the critics? :sly:
 
Isn't this the Rolex thread? I'm getting confused. Toca, Rolex, and ITCC are kind of becoming one. :crazy:

Anyways, there's a reason I gave up, and became the pace car driver. :lol:

Yeah. I should've really pulled things back on the topic of Rolex, but hey... :D

Anywhooo. Rolex, I heard there was some blooper reel moments at Motegi.

I'm missing the whole preseason, so I'll catch the opener in 3 weeks.
 
Preseason schedule-


R1- grand valley
R2- Le Mans?
 
Ok, so the season schedule is:
  1. Daytona Road Course - 65 Laps
  2. Fuji Speedway F - 36 Laps
  3. Nurburgring GP/D - 61 Laps
  4. Special Stage Route 5 - 41 Laps
  5. Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course - 55 Laps
  6. Suzuka Circuit - 40 Laps
  7. Tokyo R246 - 35 Laps
  8. Spa Francorchamps - 35 Laps
  9. Monaco - 30 Laps
  10. Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca -60 Laps

These give respective GT lap times & complete race times of approx:
  1. 1:50 - 120 mins
  2. 1:43 - 60 mins
  3. 1:31 - 95 mins
  4. 1:24 - 55 mins
  5. 1:34 - 85 mins
  6. 2:06 - 85 mins
  7. 1:45 - 60 mins
  8. 2:27 - 85 mins
  9. 1:36 - 50 mins
  10. 1:26 - 85 mins

Is this intentional? I mean Fuji, Tokyo, SSR5 & especially Monaco seem like they'll be short; though Monaco is the best chance for GT leaders to get ahead of DP tail-enders, like I tried at Laguna & Spa last season.

Also, considering the usual NAEC longer stance we had held, why are Indy & Laguna Seca shorter than most? This is especially true when considering rain may occur at Suzuka and/or Spa.

As for preseason choices Le Mans & Grand Valley for me also.

I be able to post photos for the races once we get started, the more cars the better.
 
Daytona is 1.5-2 hours

NAEC is 1.5 hours

Everything else 45-60.

Changes will be made accordingly.
 
Must admit I'm a Le Mans fan, although I know some are tired of it I wish it was on regular schedule.

Unfortunately, a lot of the race would be lost if there were a caution. I believe this is the main reason for leaving the track out.

Ok. Using the times I mentioned previously we get [course - closest lap to upper time limit - rounded amount of laps]

  1. Daytona Road Course - 65 Laps - 65
  2. Fuji Speedway F - 35 Laps - 35
  3. Nurburgring GP/D - 40 Laps - 40
  4. Special Stage Route 5 - 43 Laps - 45
  5. Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course - 58 Laps - 60
  6. Suzuka Circuit - 29 Laps - 30
  7. Tokyo R246 - 34 Laps - 35
  8. Spa Francorchamps - 25 Laps - 25
  9. Monaco - 38 Laps - 40
  10. Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca - 63 Laps - 65

Though I wouldn't mind an extra 15 minutes on Suzuka & Spa :sly:
 
So I can only be a reserve if I join? :( this looks fun.
 
polarbear345
Well, which class would you like?

And welcome!

I must not be understanding the rules. I would do the Grand Touring but it says they're all taken. Are there any other classes that aren't grand touring or daytona proto's?

DP has a spot open :)

And I'm sure a GT spot will open up :)
 
Can there be more then 2 drivers in a GT category?

No, I'm strict about that. I'd probably sign up as a reserve and wait for a spot to open ;)
