Nice. Think my best (practiced last night) was a 1:33.

And my car is predominately blue. So am I team Red Bull, or can I be the new for 2015 Team America?!

 

[RyanRacer]

just done some laps finally my best was 1:32.2 @RyanRacer

My 1:27 was set with 760 BHP by the way. Then it got nerfed. I'll do some laps with 600 BHP later.

red bull

Glad someone else getting similar times to me @STOCKY8A1

 

[RyanRacer]

Opening a practice lobby.

Can't do the practice lobby @RyanRacer . But I'll be ready for the 9:30 (GMT) start time! 👍

Who ever did practice laps, Were those lap times on RS or other tyres? I just want to know how I compare with the rest of the field. My laps were 1:32 (RM) and 1:31 (RS).

9:30? it's at 9:00 mate. Can you make that?

1.32 on RM is what a few others have been getting, don't worry 👍

 

[Soyuz 77]

Oops! Close call there.

9:00 works even better! Thanks for clearing that up mate! 👍

 

[True-blue-8]

I'll have the room up half hour before. Got a 30min GTP ES test then i'm all ready. Good luck everyone

 

[WolfpackS2k]

Is race start at 9? Or Practice start, or Q start?

 

[True-blue-8]

Q start. Will hold out 10mins if needed.

 

[WolfpackS2k]

Sweet. Looking forward to it!

 

[RyanRacer]

Is it up now?

 

[True-blue-8]

Is it up now?

yep just opened

 

[WolfpackS2k]

So where's the room? How do I find it.

 

[David Talle]

I think there's a bug if you can't find the room in the club. Just join via True-blue's community page (click on the "In club lobby" button).

 

[WolfpackS2k]

Okay I'll be right there. Going to quit GT6 to switch over to a wired connection - not liking the sluggishness with WiFi today.

Be right in then.

 

[True-blue-8]

Good fun tonight, thanks all

Formula GT Championship
Round 1 // Gran Turismo GP


Season 1 is on the roll !!

(hi-res pic, clic to zoom in)
​

You'll find some pictures of the season opener below :

Spoiler: Grand Valley Highlights

Red Bull Racing had only one car on the grid driven by Dawson864.

Top 3 fight. Fun fact : race leader is already 1 lap ahead 2nd and 3rd...

Williams 1-2 finish with a huge gap with 3rd car : 2014-like season ahead ?

Thomasavia (Renault) had to retire.

RyanRacer, never threatened from pole to flag.

GT /AUS /SPA /MON /AUT /GBR /GER /FRA /BEL /ITA /JPN /USA

 

[WolfpackS2k]

nicely done with the photos:tup:

Are we going to record the best times for each circuit like how IMMORTALPILOT did in his F1 championship back in GT5? It would be useful for future seasons, as that would allow us to see the banker times for each track. Unless there is a huge spec overhaul that is. So for Grand Valley, the lap record would be 1:29.356. That was attained in practice. If we were to go only by the best time set in the actual race at different tracks, then the lap record would be 1:29.801. Also, I think it would be best for the races to be x number of laps instead of a time limit. That would certainly help with pit strategy's. You could just record the average lap time and multiply that by the number that would give you 1 hour duration, and make that number the number of laps. It's quite simple, can we do that for now on? I personally would prefer 70-90 minute races, but I'm not sure if Grand Valley would be considered a high tire wear track or not, since we don't want to go over 4 stops a race. Okay I'm just rambling on and on, I'll stop now.

 

[David Talle]

Timed races have a huge advantage : when the checkered flag is waving, it applies to all drivers, even if you are 10 laps down. I think @NinjaEvo will agree with me, it was so annoying at Indianapolis !

For the tyres I think Grand Valley is quite low on wear, compared to Indy it was a walk in the park.

Will put times up 👍

Laps yeah we can do that, but we'll keep races 45mins for now

Tuning the suspension for Bathurst is a pain in the 🤬 .
If I eventually come up with a good tune, would you like me to send it to you @David Talle ?

 

[David Talle]

Sure, I don't have any lap in for now. Of course same goes for you if I come up with a good one.

 

[RyanRacer]

I hardly know Bathurst. When I tried it I was crashing about every 3 seconds.

 

[True-blue-8]

Forgot about this clashing wit GTP ES this weekend. Looks like Round 2 will take place next weekend 👍

 

[NinjaEvo]

Who's running on Saturday Night? I'm not...

Now delaying Round 3 is a better idea since if I get stint 1 I don't finish until at least 10...

It's next week yours?

 

[NinjaEvo]

Qualifying is this weekend but the race is next weekend. I've got my Q hour tonight, made sure I had no clashes... 👍

In that case we go ahead tomorrow
