Trial Mountain 2 Hours - Sim tyres...

I was looking for a new challenge, so I thought I'd have a go at the Trial Mountain 2 Hour endurance using Sim tyres (and no pitstops) on my (well broken-in) RUF RGT.

Race summary:
Total laps: 73
Time: 2:00:51.515
Fastest lap: 1:35.936 (lap 37)
Average lap: 1:39.336
Second - Honda NSX Type Zero
Margin of Victory - 1 lap

Initially, the Honda dissapeared into the distance, and I began to wonder if I would even be able to win. It had about a 10 second lead after 3 laps, a situation that wasn't helped by the fact I had never driven the Ruf RGT on sim tyres before...

I slowly stated putting in more consistent lap times, and the Honda was pitting every 5 laps. Nevertheless, it took me about 25 laps until I was able to retain first position, by which time I was consistently lapping in the low-to-mid 1:37's...

Overall, it was a fun race, and the RGT is massive fun to drive on Sim tyres...very neutral under braking (with no understeer on entry to the corner), and power oversteer all the way through and out of the corner if desired :)

Cheers for now...
