@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"?:confused:

Are you sure? There is 198HP? BHP and HP it's a difference.
 
ah yeah BHP and HP trouble again

Well done on the weekend everyone, and big thanks to AJ, Famine, PASM and all the other officials.

I only had 30 mins, plagued by wheel issues but still great fun. But felt like crying when I saw that RX7's time :lol: But very happy with GTOR's sessions. It's going to be great, roll on March!


Good luck for Daytona everyone :cheers:
 
I was just wondering, when the Nissan lmp1 comes to GT6 will it take part in this series? If so how? New fancise or will an existing LMP1 team change car?
 
@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. :)

There are, however details will be kept confidential. If everyone behaves, the weather stays dry, and we don't have any lobby issues, its highly likely it will remain in the pits. We practice the procedures so that if it is used, everyone is comfortable with what they need to do. If anyone [EDIT - previously said 'you'] hasn't seen how it works yet, I recommend scanning through the FP4 broadcast as we had 2 or 3.

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?

Forecast is for clear skies next weekend. Raceday is another matter. ;)

Mine has 205HP stock and 214HP after the oilchange.
So confirmation please

Miata bought. Oil change/body rigity?

I wings may be changed, banned I assume?

195bhp
795kg

The lobby setting of 'Prohibit Tuning' will be selected. This allows you to adjust power restriction and brake balance, but as far as I am aware, nothing else.

I was just wondering, when the Nissan lmp1 comes to GT6 will it take part in this series? If so how? New fancise or will an existing LMP1 team change car?

I am giving that eventuality as much attention as the potential addition of the 919 or GT3 RSR.

Is DART all set for Friday 1700 through 1800 . One car each 30 minutes.

The Support Event cars will only be allowed on track for the first Block (30mins) of QP. You have both cars booked for 17:00 - 17:30.

Okay, thanks for the response. I was under Safety Car during the test at least three times throughout the weekend so I'm pretty confident I know how it works. :)
 
If the Miata has 214 hp stock and untuned, why detune it to 195? Seems like an unnecessary complication.

(And I thought your published BoP listed it at 198?)

Some people will or have already done an oil change. This way everyone has to check their restrictor, and should avoid any issues or delays. The 198 was a mistake based off inaccurate information.
 
Hi guys,

I am looking for a team to join. I have racing experience with Apex Racing League and vrroom.org

Are there any teams still needing drivers?

I have a seat in the Nissan GT-R GT500
 
Hello @AJ. Do you happen to know when/if the speculated "waivers" and possibly updated driver ratings will be posted after the Willow Springs test? Hopefully we can know before Daytona so teams can determine who needs to qualify and who does not.

Waivers will be issue on an individual basis. Once a team confirms the 3-5 drivers it wants to field for the event, I will post which BRONZE drivers will need to take part in a QP session.

Thank you AJ. I'm still new to all of this so your response is highly appreciated. 👍

We have had a driver drop out due to real world commitments. Does he count against our 10 driver limit since the season has not officially started.

Yes he will. Please contact me via your Team Thread so we can discuss further.

Hi Drivers of the Daytona 24H,

For this event, the broadcast team has made an driver interview for drivers competing in the Daytona 24H. We would like as many drivers of the Daytona 24h to fill in the questionnaire by clicking the link (below). Your answers will be used in our commentary during the live streams. Filling in the questionnaire won't take very long and is of great help for the commentators.

Click this link to go to the questionnaire

Thanks in advance!

I filled out the form, but I left a few blank due to time and lack-of-information. 👍 I think a small biography would also be cool for the streams, having a little snippet of driver's personal lives and personalities.

Yeah, we have some ideas. unfortunately a lot of these ideas involve a lot of time so for now we chose to use it as background info on the drivers during the commentary.


UGHHH. Favorite driver question and i lost it all -_-
Nobody said it was easy :P (I start to sound like an coldplay song :rolleyes:)

Overall thanks for the response guys!!!:gtpflag:But we can still use some more!!!
