I made my self a 40 minutes private session and so far this is my best time, this time whit stock settings.

 

[Rinsky]

So I just did 4 laps around Mount Panorama in a private lobby under the race settings.

I could probably do a better hot lap if I tried but this is good enough to get an general idea of lap times.

They should range anywhere between 1:34 to 1:38 depending on how hard your pushing it. Unless your the leader with clear track ahead I don't see times above 1:36 for the most of us.

Working with a draft can easily drop the time by a full second.

 

[Rinsky]

So will an empty full tank.

I was in a lobby with @Macboyilija, @DesertPenguin and some of the new guys, and while it's not the best track for clean hard racing there was some good battles. But I really think we will need to practice more to make sure it won't be a bump fest.

 

[Macboyilija]

Practicing on this track is difficult since its one of the most difficult tracks around. Chris made a 2:33 multiple times. I managed to do a 2:36 so with some practice I can surely manage a 2:35.

It was a great but hard first session:

Just so you know Mount Panorama is one of the 86 Racing Series most popular tracks and it's been the first track of their seasons. So that's why it was chosen to be our first track as well.

I want to understand that last part but I just don't lol. Must be cause English is not my mother tongue. I interpret it like you are saying the leader would be slower than the pack? Sorry

No the leader would be faster with clear track ahead. The rest of us will be a tad bit slower because of the amount of traffic around

Then we are on the same page yes. 👍

 

[DesertPenguin]

But if some guys work together with a draft they can bump closer and closer to the leader

Will bump drafting be allowed?

Well penalties are off so if the other person isn't bothered by it and it's not causing any accidents I don't see why you couldn't.

 

[Tom aka newb]

Need to practice at some point today

The following statement speaks for no one but myself:

I'll be honest it bothers me when you give me a bump when we're close (within 100m) to the first brake marker/start of the braking zone. You're basically forcing me to approach a turn at a speed I normally wouldn't reach and that can be dangerous. It's perfectly fine to bump me once we're straight after a turn to help get up to speed and down the straight, but please back off when we're close to the braking zone, thanks.

Beautiful shots. If you don't mind though, try to keep it all in one post? If you have more than ten it's good to put them in a spoiler tag as it helps cut down on the time it takes to load the page. 👍

I do mind, cause its too difficult with my mobile phone. He does not allow scrolling above 4 pictures. And in 2018 I may expect from people to have a decent internet connection. If not, you are not allowed to join this league cause of the risk of lag anyway

 

[DesertPenguin]

I have a good connection but slow computer. And for people on phones it's annoying to scroll through a ton of photos to reach the bottom of the page. Also, only if it's over 10 or 15. Less than that it's not a problem.

 

[Tom aka newb]
