To further his comments, I will also attest to @Whitetail's abilities as a true virtual endurance racing talent.

I am currently hosting a practice lobby if any wish to join.

Safe to say I'm fairly concerned about the BoP for the LM P1 class coming into Silverstone and Suzuka. May be fine at Le Mans but these tracks are extremely different.

 

[swiftsmith]

@AJ any word on what's going on with the new classes?

 

[DaBomb330]

They need to wait till Le Mans to make new regs because in real life they change B.O.P just for Le Mans and then revert after.

And its a little annoying with a week or so to go.

Can you post an example of how it changes IRL?

It's 2 years old but its the best representation i could find. http://www.lemanslive.com/News/Balance-of-Performance

In real life Le Mans is only the third race, this is the final, so there will be no "reverting." The current BoP has been exclusively tested at Le Mans to my knowledge so it's fundamentally imperfect at the other tracks, because in real life, as you've said, there's a different BoP.

 

[sk8er913]

I wonder if PD will add official support for endurance racing since we have provided them with ideas of how it could be accomplished.


Edit @Whitetail and @DaBomb330 and anyone else, practice room up. Havent been able to get in the zone though.

I have been considering joining this extremely serious and hardcore series. I would embrace the possibility of pairing with @rcb929, but I have an important question I need to ask.

How exactly do the long endurance races work? Do you meet up at your teamy's house and do stints that way?

 

[rcb929]

I am sorry but my team isn't taking anymore drivers. I forgot my team is still on list. If someone could take it off that would be great.

Go on YouTube and watch the support race for Bathurst its 2 hours of pure entertainment and enlightenment.

GTOR are having an absolute horrid time, it's a nightmare. Half of our team are unable to race and we're hoping to just struggle through this event.

If anyone wants a run in the GTE LM at suzuka drop me a PM ASAP please

I'll be at Suzuka. I just can't attend qualifying.

 

[True-blue-8]

2 drivers need to compete in Q which is the problem

 

[Spirit]

I'll be at Suzuka. I just can't attend qualifying.

I believe there's a Suzuka QP session at 5:00 EDT tomorrow, if you could try to make it.
