Anyway car selection will be as it has always been, at the end of the season when total points are official.

Happy Birthday to Birdy, my seasonal teammate. Sorry, I wasn't there last night. I thought I might make it back from a business trip to Chicago, but didn't quite make it in time. Keep the green flag flying!

 

[Die_Birdy_Die]

Thanks JC and no worries hopefully jake misses the next 2 weeks and we can still pick up the constructors

 

[Jakedog23]

In your wildest dreams

@Die_Birdy_Die and @Scorpion0001
Even with all your help in my tuning setup - I am so terribly unable to run with the guys in GT-1.

Will keep practicing and showing up, but have no delusion of being able to match abilities and be competitive again.

It's weird Tex I put you in pro and you suck! put you in pro-am and you dominate! Either be consistent in your suckage or get better! lol

My first 2 seasons i couldnt hang with anyone, was way way back getting lapped by chris and Jake. The Camaro has been a godsend. I just click with it. Maybe you, like me, just need the right car at the right time to do well. Next time we run these cars grab the camaro and use either mine or jakes tune and youll be right up front Tex.

My wife and I had great laugh over that one, Birdie.

I'll try being more consistent in my suckage. If "promoted to ProAm" again I'll run at the back ........ I promise, Your Honor.

Well with the welcoming of the "legend" there is a soon to be vacancy in pro-am with your name on it

 

[Scorpion0001]

Well practice was going good until the thunder storms up here knocked.out our cable

 

[Jakedog23]

Nice. I thought you just didn't like me or something

 

[Die_Birdy_Die]

[Jakedog23]

I figured as much considering kg left me out to dry as well

 

[Kgffy]

Thx for helping me with boss 302 Jake, loving that time change with sun setting or sun rising lol.

Figure out the HP yet? We all need time to properly tune and test 'ALL' the cars.



Belated Happy Burfday!

The quali trick is to try and use as much fuel as possible before pitting, than pit without taking gas and do 1 or 2 good flying laps.
Same with how he did the final stint in his car, he took as little fuel as possible to finish the race. less fuel equates to faster cars lol

Check the second post mate

 

[Scorpion0001]

I'm filing a protest against the new BOP for next season. The BMW has 35 hp less than the Vipers, this is not fair play, especially since the BMW has way less torque than the rest of the cars in the list.
There is two cars in the list that have front downforce as well as one with extremely high rear downforce. These cars will have an unfair advantage when it comes to speed, turn in ability and tire wear.
I might be wrong, but in my testing there is a slight lap time difference of about 1 sec per lap to these cars with this miraculous hp and downforce advantage.

I am relying solely on jakes balancing of the cars. I haven't boughten a single one of them nor have I tested any of them. If someone can please confirm scorps finding for the BoP then I will start looking at it.

I would like to point out I had all my cars with in .5 of each other

I had mine within around .2

Also the GTS has no downforce and turns like a pig so it need the straight line help to give it Balence.

Practice tonight?
Room is open.
