40 minute enduro at Goodwood proved a good fuel management strategy is Key. It was a fairly close race throughout with @Benny44 & @Mooseldorf drag racing to the finishline. Well done everyone & nice win for @permaculture. Unfortunately I christened the pit wall & ran out of fuel. C'est la vie.

For anyone interested in racing Wednesday evenings at 8:30pm EST, the OWS sub-league Le Club des Petits Gâteaux is growing quickly and we’re having some incredible races! This week’s regulations are:

Choose any AWD car(s) you like as long as it is not a race car and meets the following requirements:

HP max: 270
Weight min: 2780lbs (1,260.99kgs)
Tires: Must start on Heavy Wet, may change to Intermediate at pit.

All upgrades, with the exception of nitrous, are fair game. BoP will be off. It will rain throughout all of races this week, so I wouldn’t bother buying any other tires than the ones mentioned above.

@permaculture or I host the races, and we usually run 2-3 races and end between 9 and 9:20pm EST, with usually at least one sprint and one enduro race.

Vivre le gâteau!

Hey Supo, not sure if you're on the Discord but I'm hosting a lobby 8pm Thursday Australian time if you're interested in joining.
I'm also open to suggestions to rerun other races from 8pm, let me know

Awesome, thank you for letting me know! If life doesn't get in the way, I'll do my best to be there. Which time zone are you in again? Australia is too big I'm in UTC+9.

I'm not in the Discord, but if you want to share a link, I'll try to join.

Hi
Cool.
Australian Eastern time which I think is also UTC+9 but please check in case I'm wrong.
I've noticed the GT Planet moderators don't like external links.
Go to discord and search for Old Weird and Slow.
There may also be a link earlier in this channel.

 

[suponji84]

I managed to find the Discord, thank you!

Within the OWS community I'm hosting a weekly Gr4s event (Tuesdays 10pm BST) which takes a pair of those cars, runs them with sports hard tires, and adds a small (0.2x) amount of N05 for an added tactical dimension! We work out our own BoP and do 3x 10 min rounds.
