The way I did it was the exact same.
Took too much or not enough.
Then leading first corner spun.

However that's when I decided well try again, and instead of RS I went with RM.
 
Well I must be doing something totally wrong. Ive done over 1000km in the wrx in this race and tried all the cars & strats listed here and in the other thread.
I had 1 good chance when I was leading the last lap and ran out of fuel, ended up 3rd in 15:38.018
Driving me mad driving this challenge!

Why is it sometimes the race goes for 21 laps and sometimes 22?
 
A little off topic but I find funny the fact that we would call a 15 min race as an "endurance".
For me 20-30 min races are sort-sprint races (and I am not talking about RL).
 
This one is doing my head in ive had friends advising me on their strategy in getting first place, tried every one cant get to first, what bugs me more im 3 s faster than the next fastest time on my friends list but can only get 3rd
 
An alternative method to win the race is use fuel map 6 at the start, never go to the pit and you should probably win. If you manage to block the coming cars and have enough fuel to cross the finish line of course.
 
Well, I went through this race yesterday after playing for about three hours, testing different setups and different cars. Here's what I did to win:

Lamborghini Harucan was the car I used. RS for the front tires and RM for the rear tires. Why this? The right rear tire always end up first, so you need the rear tires to be more resistant, the medium should deal with the work since you change him one time at the pit. Fuel consume was on default.

Keep in mind that on lap 9 you'll enter the pit. You should COMPLETE your fuel tank and put RM for the tires, since the RS wont be able to end the track.
Now pay attention: Before you enter the pit on lap 9, your position should 6th or superior. If you are under this position, you should restart the track.

If you did exactly as I said above, on lap 11 the first racers will enter the pit. When they get out of the pit you would stay in front of them or very close behind of them. But that's ok because the vacuum will help you get close to them, even if their cars are faster than yours.

PS: I was unable to take a difference from them, so I had to 'protect' the entire race against them so they wont pass me.
 
Wassup. My method got me to the finish line with 3-4 seconds to spare:
  • Audi R8 Gr.3 - Hard Tyres
  • no fuel save for first lap
  • fuel-map save level 3 from 2nd lap
  • Your fuel should last till the end of the 14th Lap
  • Pit in, fill up for approx 8 laps of fuel, switch to soft tires and change fuel map back to level 1
  • Go hard and fuel should just last till end of race.
As long as you have no big incidents, you should get the gold.

Tried your method got 2nd, will give it another go
 
Hallelujah!
Finally got it done.
WRX Gr3 RS RM 0 traction control

Went hard n fast out of the blocks got to 1st at the end of lap 7. Did some blocking to stay in front and pit on lap 11. Threw on some RM and 9.7 laps of fuel. Came out on the butt of the other WRX and passed him on turn 1, then just began to leave him behind. Opened up a 1.5sec lead by lap 17 then he started to catch me by about .3sec per lap. Lead was lookin good, fuel was lookin good. Then on the last lap, 21, he was catching real fast. He was on my butt for turn 3 but i blocked him and headed for home. Fuel ran out just before the line and another block got me the win. Over 1300km in the WRX and I've only used it for this mission!
 
Toyota f1 gtv two pit strategy. Start with softs and pit end of 7th lap. Only fuel for 7 laps. Run good laps while everyone else is on bad tires and putting in. Pit in again end of 14th lap. Fuel for 7 laps. If you ran well you can come out of the pits still in first. I was 3 seconds ahead when I finished. Fuel map 1 the whole way.
 
Hi friends! I'm new here!

It took I while, but a did!!!

Mission Challenge
Stage 8
Race #6 - Blue Moon Speedway 15 minute endurance

My methode is:

  • I put on the line help and try to keep on the internal side of the track! This is most important thing I learn on this race!
Setup

  • Car VW Betlee
  • Fuel Map: 1
  • Front Tires: S
  • Back Tires: M
  • Track Control: 0
  • ABS: Normal
  • Pit stop at lap 11 and put 10,2 of gas. I was in first at lap 16... was very hard to block the cars ... specially the WRX.

I holpe this can help you!
 
I did this first time,

Aston GR3. RH Tyres. Set Fuel to 3. Drafted all the way to lap 12, everyone pitted, pitted lap 14 (should have done lap 13) no tyre change, 7 laps of fuel. last 2 laps just had to defend like mad, crossed the line 1 second ahead.

So Easy....
 
Just my two pence worth...

Veyron Gr.4 + Stage 2 weight reduction
No TCS
Fuel map 1 for the entire race

Started on RS on the front and RM on the back.
Fronts were on their way after 4 so in hindsight I wouldn’t do that again!

Stopped for fuel on lap 5. Filled her up and changed to RM’s. Good stint but fronts were on their way again.

Stopped for fuel on lap 10 (in 3rd). Used RH’s for the last stint so I could lean on them hard and was in 1st with a lap to go (everyone else’s pace looked like they were struggling).

A very pedestrian and safe lap to finish 6 seconds ahead of second place.

Hopefully that shows you can enjoy going flat out (blocking or tip toeing around is not for me).

Happy racing!
 
Did this one first go a couple of days ago and never really paid much attention to the settings I used, I ran the WRX, managed the fuel at the beginning with setting 6, then just slowly increased the fuel setting, pitted lap 6 I think for RM tires and filled the WRX up, then by the end I was running fuel map 1 and finished about 5 seconds in front..... maybe on reflection I should have saved a replay or something.
 
I used the GTI Roadster on softs (They last long enough here at least on this car), putting on lap 10 to get a second set of softs and filling up the tank all the way. Stretching out the first stint to 11 laps should be possible too with the fuel map. Doing this I only had to mess with the fuel map at the end cause I wasn't sure if I'd be good on fuel. I won by multiple seconds and didn't have to resort to dirty tactics. You'll probably run 21 or 22 laps this way.
