Well we ran both GT300's and GT500's that week. It will come up again at some point. Don't know how long though. Trying to add some variety to the schedule from week to week. I've still got to work on the schedule for after the Bathurst Enduro. I was actually unaware that the Le Mans and Bathurst races were both pushed back a week. I thought we were running the Enduro this week and pushing the Le Mans races to a later date. I guess Phish and I need to communicate.
If we get a decent showing, then we'll do the Le Mans racing this week. Either way, I've got to do some testing to figure out the laps.Actually, can we get a head count for this week if we do Le Mans? What about Bathurst? If it seems like there'll be a good number for Le Mans, we'll run that. If more people are ready for Bathurst, then maybe we'll run that instead; just swap the dates?

So the Viper is $1.45 mil. The Audi $1.98 mil. The 787B $2.1 mil. Total = $5.53 mil.
Ford Falcon for Bathurst is $1.15 mil.
All cars together would be $6.68 mil.
If people have the necessary credits to buy the Le Mans cars ($5.53 mil), we'll plan to do that. But again, I'll need to know from the others: 1. if they have enough credits or can grind for them the next couple of days (if they already have the cars, this question can be ignored), and 2. are they planning to race assuming they do have the necessary credits (or cars already). Or...
I figure most people can afford the $1.15 mil for the Falcon, so Bathurst can be easily run. Would people rather run that this week knowing that fact?
If everyone has at least $6.68 mil, then they're good to go either way. Everything seems kinda
right now. I'll take a crack at some laps in the cars as well. See how we compare. Thanks for info 👍
Edit: Did a short stint in the Viper. Ran a 3:45 on the 4th lap (counting the out-lap). Looks like 3:45's-3:50's. Tire wear seemed pretty good. My left front went to 9 after 2 laps, and the others followed shortly. However, after finishing the additional 2 laps, they were still at 9's. Don't know how close to 8's they were. Either way, it doesn't look like tire wear will be a huge issue, so not much slower lap times. Fuel is no issue at all. Will edit again after a run in the Audi, then Mazda.
Edit 2: Ran a couple of 3:29's on laps 3 and 4 in the Audi. Tire wear and fuel about the same as the Viper. Probably looking at mostly low-mid 3:30's, with some faster (and slower if you go off track) lap times.
Edit 3: Not perfect laps, but I ran a couple 3:21's in the 787. Tire wear and fuel again appear to be similar. Though there may be a lap added on, possibly creating a little drama on worn tires. I will check out the racing time calculator and post how many laps I think we're likely going to be running.
Final Edit (hopefully
): 8 laps in the Viper, 9 in the Audi (a bit over 30 minutes), and 9 laps in the Mazda I believe will be the plan. I'll PM Phish.

Alright. So this post is for those who can and/or will do Le Mans. I'll edit it as I get more replies in the thread.

From the what I'm seeing here, it looks like the Le Mans races will be a go for this Friday.

Time to go shopping Turtles! I finished all the Red Bull events last night with enough credits to buy the cars!
Can we gift a car in GT6? I feel generous to donate a car to those who do not have time to get credits.

Yours truly still has $31 million credits...I don't think so, yet.
I was thinking the same, or donating credits... I had over 20M before shopping for these... still doing ok
And yeah, it's too bad you can't donate credits. And car trading MIGHT come back if PD ever implements their online community.

Sometimes just being average has its perks... I kept running the Redbull Standard over and over again because I couldn't quite get all golds on it back when it first launched. I got probably 30M that day, haha.

I actually enjoyed driving the Red Bull Jr... @Dolph Drago is it possible to have a red bull series?

I vote for a broader, smoother raceway like Brand's, Apricot, or Silverstone...
but NOT Fuji or Nurburg GP... for some reason the Redbulls on those tracks make me hate life and never want to play GT ever again
although... Monaco could be fun
