Any openings in lmp1?
 
Not known yet,
 
Hm. I saw less lmp's at monza than gte. I'm guessing someone didn't show.
 
Joe didn't and Stonsea didn't,

Stonesea is an on call emergancy service, so he gets priority over the Pescarolo,

I don't know why Joe didn't make it, that's not my business, But he had said he was coming,
 
What car was he suppose to run?
 
I already asked this and got no reply, so I'll ask again. When setting up my Lamborghini to GTE specs, I noticed that the RPM peak of power dropped from 7000RPM to 4800RPM. Is that normal for a car's RPM power peak to drop like that when detuning via the power limiter?

I've never noticed it, and I genuinely don't know, sorry I can't help,

I didn't notice it until recently, either. I'm just as stumped as you are.
 
Didn't slow it none in a straight line, I don't think with standard turbo's and PD's tuning engine that in means much in GT5,

I've seen them flat line at new power limiter's,

The answer is because of the ECU, the engine will produce the maximum power from the moment it hits the limiter, so all the way from 4800RPM to redline it produces 453hp.
Where as if the limiter were not in place, the engine would produce 453hp at 4800RPM, but then the power figure would continue to climb with the RPM until peak torque.
So in short, nothing at all is wrong, it's just the power band is a lot flatter in all cars that run severe limiters.

I'll look into running GTE officially if there is a car I can use and LMP is full.

Right the official list of available cars are:
M3 GTR (no driver)
Audi R8 LMS (next two rounds)
If you'd prefer the Viper to either of these I'm willing to swap it.

As for taking Joe's 908, Have you PM'd him Dave asking if he will be participating or not? It does seem like a waste leaving one of GT5's actually finished models by the wayside.
 
M3 GTR is suppose to be driven by Racingworld88, he has posted on the thread for his tardyness, expecting him next race,

I believe the zonda and Nissan Z will be available next race, as they will most likely be in the gt300 race, But we will wait for them to confirm before selling,

Joe had commited to last race, but he had other commitments to attend too, he really wants to run, maybe make him a super sub like stonesea, If he can make it then the car is his, if not then someone else can have it,

I contacted Racingworld via PM, he was only planning on attending the Monza race, not the whole championship, but couldn't make it in the end. So he won't be at any other races.

So should we fill Joe and Stonesea's cars and then just have two running if worst comes to worst?
 
I will be here for the Spa Race in the Audi R8 LMS. It's the two races after that, Fuji and Cape Ring, I believe that I'll have to miss. I'll be gone from May 15 to June 15 :)
 
I won't make the next race:(
 
I'll gladly run the 908. I actually prefer it tbh. If he does show I'll drop to GTE, but LMP is preferable.

I think 2 peugeot sport LMP's can be handled, seeing as there was like 4 team cars at 1 one point,

ok mate, If your happy to do so, I'm happy to allow it to work like that,
 
Low 2:05s with the 908 so far.
 
I'm probably not going to test the Audi until after the Laguna event,
