If you want 2 suprize me that works thanks! I'll be in div 3 lounge @630 West. See u guys soon
 
You're right about the fact that the lines at La Sarthe often have nothing to do with racing. But in Mulsanne's case, no one actually uses the part of the track beyond the line at the 24 hours of Le Mans because the tarmac beyond the line is a sloppy, dirty mess. In GT5, it's just as good (or almost as good) as the surface inside the line.

For the record, I'm not arguing for a restriction there. I'll be happy either way. I just want to know for sure what the rules will be.

It's not within my scope of authority to make a decision on this one.

I'm not sure if I'm the go to guy on this kind of stuff, but here's my opinion. I don't think there's huge advantage to using it and in fact it's a lot riskier, given the proximity of the sand. It is a paved area and has a well defined edge to it, I'd use that as the track boundary.

Video so you can see where we're talking about. Mulsanne corner is visible at 7 seconds.

Apologies for short notice; unable to race tonight.
 
I will be I the lounge a few minutes before start, out running some errands at the moment. 👍

Cool. Thanks for clearing that up for me. See you on-track shortly!

Sadly I won't be racing tonight. Some kind of bug has hit me and I feel like crap. Have a good night gang.
 
I'm having connection issues and I'm hindering the whole Division 2 from racing the Ferrari race. I'm sorry guys. :(
 
Dont think its you. Im not even able to reconnect.
 
I can't get back in either.
 
I'm unable to get in either. :(
 
Just keep trying guys.. I got the "Failed to join room" message about six times before it let me in.
 
Yeap, just happened to me also. I'm joining the lobby now.
 
Got in. Try clearing the cache again.
 
I can get into d1 just fine. I'll keep at it though. Ahh, Im in!
 
Maybe it had something to do with us being on page 404.
 
Crap connection tonight. :-(

I lost it with the last 0:18 to go on countdown. What a fluster-cluck, internety-wise.
 
Had connections in d3 too when we went to round 3. We got it worked out though. Had some good racing
 
Bad night, I had it after I wrecked tcrash right when I was going to back off, somehow I bumped him.
 
Well, I enjoyed the new combos much more than I expected. Hopefully the last round stays so we can do it properly.
 
Gentleman, thanks again for a great night of racing in spite of all the connectivity issues. I am SOOOO sorry for my racing tonight... I just couldn't get my manure in one sock and was all over the place. I feel pretty bad about the whole thing. Sorry zer0, I know I tangled with you on more than one occasion... Time to re-think my approach...
 
Man was I rusty....not racing with you guys for a month really dulled my online skills. I have no idea what happened at Sarthe, I couldn't see rofa anywhere on the track so apologies if I wrecked anyone accidentally :scared:
 
Just a thought...Are y'all running yer 'puters while racing?

Had fun. Was hoping to do a little better, but I guess most of us were...:dopey:
 
Remember all, Twin Ring Motegi is available this week to pick :)

Hope we get rid of Spa!
