2015 GTP Endurance Series: General Discussion

[dgriffin28]

I'm interested in doing this. I am a very experienced driver in endurance racing, I'm member of TNR racing, I competed in CORE WEC in the P1 class and TNR's WEC.

If you haven't found a seat yet. I have an LM P2 seat open. Message me if interested for details.

You wanna drive LM P2 class? I need a driver ASAP.

 

[GTP_Nail]

AJ I assume my drivers can run Daytona with other teams but how does it affect their status with my team. I.E. if I lose a driver permanently to another Team can I replace him if I am at the max.

 

[ScuderiaLucas]

It is going to get exicting in the LM P2 Class!

A lot of great drivers and I am happy to be racing them, let's get a great kick start at Daytona!

 

[GTP_Patrick1]

Nice job on the team intros via Twitter @AJ 👍.

Team and drivers announcement was awesome!! Loving the build up to the start of the series, cannot wait to be at Willow Springs tomorrow amongst so many great drivers and teams.

 

[F1Racer68]

Great job on the announcements @AJ. Nice work on the spotters guide.

And since @AJ Introduced us as "the friendliest team in sim-racing" , we will start the season by wishing all of our competitors good luck for the season. May the best (Canadian) team win.

Can't wait to hit the track. See you all out there. 👍

There is a list of teams that are currently recruiting on the OP. I would recumbent contact a few of them. I'm sure SSR would love to have you.

For the first part, not at all. For the second, thats a bit more tricky.

We are already in contact with him. Thank you for the recommendation.

Here's some eye candy for you all in anticipation for the 2015 GTPlanet 24 Hours of Daytona.

 

[RichyBugs]

Hey guys, I'm sort of new to this whole thing, but I am interested. If anybody needs a driver/ wants to see what I've got driving, let me know.

Would you be interested in driving an LM P2 car?

 

[RichyBugs]

Would you be interested in driving an LM P2 car?

Yes Sir, which team would it be for/do you want to see me run a couple laps before you have me on?

I am traveling at the moment. Maybe I can meet up with you sometime tomorrow evening or Monday evening. We are a driver development team so could be perfect for you to move up in the rankings. I should be off the road in about 2 to 3 hours and I will go ahead and add you to the drivers list and get you put on the team threat. Is your PS in ID the same as your GT planet ID?

@AJ my team informed me that the livestream was viewing my R8 from behind the Safety Car so I turned my windshield wiper on to say hi. Glad you noticed.

Swift Autosport Pre-Season Press Release Coming Soon. More news to come on twitter in next few days.

 

[PASM]

We're now live again with the broadcast of Free Practice 4:

Livestream of Free Practice 4, with commentary!

 

[NingDynasty]

Good event guys, we got most of our team in the car for a bit, felt good. We've got some procedural stuff to work on internally but we'll be ready!

Thanks for the work on the broadcast, we watched it throughout our runs.

 

[F1Racer68]

CanAm VRL second's @NingDynasty's comment.

Great test sessions. Job well done by the stewards and broadcast teams.

We had a good day in the car with positive results both on track and with driver changes. Really looking forward to our first race.

 

[Spirit]

@AJ so is there any specific criteria that would call for a Safety Car in anactual race? What about a Code 60 procedure? I think the Safety Car could massively disadvantage a team depending where it pulls out.

Thanks for the great Willow weekend.

Thanks for the great Willow weekend.

A code 60 procedure has been considered before but AJ stuck with the safety car.

Is race weather determined by real-life weather or just by the GTPES officials themselves?

That being said, is there any weather info for Daytona that can be shared?

i believe it's determined by the game

 

[WolfpackS2k]

@AJ, the horsepower you list for the Miata Touring car is 198hp. However mine has 205 (possibly off by 1-2 hp, going off memory) and my car is 100% stock, it's just had an oil change. Is your figure of 198 correct? And if so, this means I have to take my stock car and restrict its power to a different definition of "stock"?
