90s FIA GT season 2 complete! Season 3 coming soon...

[freshseth83]

Good. Sunday had a turnout problem the first week, but since then 10 or 11 showed up the past Sunday. I hope it continues that way. I'll have a points table and qualifying table up soon, so keep a look out for that.

Ferraridude308/Ferraridude308/(?)/Honda NSX-R/Mountain -7GMT/Sunday

Can't make Mondays, but I will show up on Sundays for sure.

 

[freshseth83]

GREAT! I'll add you to the list on page one and the Sunday series list on page four.

I can't make a few races as they are DLC races...

 

[RodeRuner1967]

I'm bailing out of the season guys. The laps are too long for me. I have back problems and I can't sit that long anymore.

 

[adam46]

I might be able to take Rode Runner's spot or the Panoz. I just need to know something. I've missed out on about 12 updates, obviously I need 2.09, but will my machine download all the others I missed too? Also, wouldn't it be far more authentic to the real FIA GT series of that time if the Lister Storm took the place of the Nissan GTR Concept?
Only a recommendation...

So provisionally mine would go like this...

duke_adam46/adam46/Adam/Nissan R390 (Or Panoz or Lister if included)/GMT/either day but prefferably Sunday...

 

[freshseth83]

So you can't race for 90 minutes, Tyson? That's too bad. Adam, I appreciate you signing up. About the Lister Storm- it weighs over 1400kg, at least 200kg more than the heaviest car in the field. It's a boat. The GTR is included because the R33 took part in LeMans. I would replace it with the R33TC, but its too slow. The R390 is in the same deal as the NSX. This series is a hypothetical take on the cars of that era competing together. You won't make the Lister Storm work. I'll put you down in the R390 GT1. I hope you can make both Sunday and Monday, but for now I'll sign you up for Sunday. And your PS3 will update the game when you sign in. Thanks!

I have a few questions:

1. (I don't know if this question has been already answered, I didn't read every page.) Can I run with ballast on my car if I don't have a podium finish? I'm using if for weight distribution purposes on my NSX so its more stable.

2. About what time is the average time on SSR5 in the GTS series with both tire compounds? I'd like to know if I'm on pace with the rest of the pack.

I had a race this last Tuesday that was 67 laps. It was too long. It was hard for me to get up. The GT300 league we both race in has just the right amount of laps. I had to quit Jav's for the same reason, too many laps.
I'm real sorry. The series is a real good one. 👍

You run whatever weight you want. As long as you meet the minimum weight. If you finish in the top 3 and aren't multiple laps down youll receive ballast. GTS times are the 1:16's on softs. Some cars faster.

Thanks! I'm right on target then.

 

[freshseth83]

Good. Expect the 1:15 s to be pole time. The Jaguar is real quick here.

 

[adam46]

Right so I need to get an R390 ASAP then

EDIT: In all honesty I have no hope of managing this with my horrid internet connection and lack of cars. (The only cars I have being the GTR and I don't think I have any others) So as I am so unlikely to be able to manage, and add that to the fact I have no DLC, it's for the best if I vacate. I'd desperatley love to compete but It's not going to happen, sorry :/

 

[freshseth83]

Ok then. If thats what you feel is best.

 

[Davis]

I might not make it to qualifying tomorrow.

I'm going to an X-mas brunch, and I'll get home about the same time as qualifying ends.
I'll hurry as fast as I can, but please note that if I do not show up for qualifying, I'm likely about 5 minutes away.

I'll update this post from my phone tomorrow, so if things don't happen accordingly, you'll know, and not waste your time holding off the race for me. I understand that this isn't very good behavior for my first race with the series, but I don't want to look like a sluff to my family because I'm too busy playing video games.

 

[freshseth83]

Dont worry bud. Qualifying usually runs a lil late. Youll make it.

 

[Davis]

The race is today, correct? Or am I crazy, because I don't see any room open.

 

[freshseth83]

I havent opened it yet.

 

[Davis]

I havent opened it yet.

Oh, I thought it started at 2:00PM Eastern exactly. I feel like such an idiot here.

 

[freshseth83]

Its my fault. GF problems.

 

[ZovoVanBasten]

Room open : 1472 6681 3415 7079 5434

 

[FERGT2690]

Hi, I can race today and maybe tomorrow at 7pm.

 

[Davis]

Are we going to have to wait for 2½ hours for every race after this point? Because if so, I might have to bail. I just simply can't wait that long for a race.

 

[I Am Yellow]

That was way too late. Got disconnected tonight, but it wouldn't go that well because when I did my pit stop I've put the wrong tires, so I had to pit again.

Looking forward to tomorrow, if my internet helps.

 

[freshseth83]

We started late because no one bothered to show up on time. So if were in a room for an hour and were at less than 7 racers; Were going to postpone the race. So much interest yet so little correlation to the room! If you cant race at the time specified theres no reason to sign up, guys. That said I'll have the results up soon.
