The Evora may have to be re-homoligated. I even notice that they've been faster than the field recently. And they are only going to get faster while their engines continue to break in. Maybe restrict the horsepower a little bit? Just a thought.

If anything it will be a little more weight.
Have you posted the results or standings yet?

I'm working on it, I have the sheet filled out with the basic information, but not with all the data. There was also a situation at the end that may need to be resolved.
Here's what I got for the results so far. LINK
Also, I noticed people crossing the blend line when exiting the pits in the last race. Please, do not cross all four tires over the blend line until you passed the end of the blend line. If you do not know what the blend line is, let us know. We'll let you know. Further infractions may lead to a warning, then timed penalties (equivalent to a stop-and-go per infraction).

Did you read the notes?
There was a...something happened at the end where Seth's driver graphic was shown as the victor, but the results screen says that Anthony won. So, I have to watch the entire replay. I can't fast forward the damn thing because I made no more than 2 laps in the pace car.Otherwise, yeah.

I know on my screen it looked like I crossed the line before Anthony. Even though I was bumped out the way. I really don't care if I came in 2nd, but the swerving back and forth on the straight so I can't catch the draft, then rear ending me on the 2nd last corner really pisses me off. My tires were already low, and your car has 20hp more than me, Anthony. Go around me.

Well, I'm tired and I am dosing off. I'll try to finish the data tomorrow. G'nite guys.

I'll scale back the power a bit. Maybe add a little weight. But I've been watching the replay all morning and all the cars are equal as far as speed goes.
I'd like to encourage the rest of the gt field (who have the replay) to see how I took my corners and what gears I used. I really feel like that gave me a huge advantage last night.

Um, I took the same exact lines that I used on my Viper with the Evora. The Evora was a full second faster than my Viper. The Corvette was only a tenth behind the Viper in my tests.
The Evora was also in 472hp and 1280kg, in 80% fuel and new tires. I've done a 1:31.0--. That was as fast as your fastest lap time with a 1:31.0 in the race with 486hp. The Evora is faster than the other cars, it's pulling away from the field.

Like I said I'll tone it down a bit for the race at Madrid. But besides LeMans, I think the rest of the tracks favor the Lotus anyway.
And I honestly think were pulling away because of our lines and tunes. Speeds were the same down the straights. So we have to be pulling away in the corners.

No matter what I'm doing, the Viper can't seem to get faster than a 1:31.8. Same with the Vette. That Lotus is definitely too fast, because you guys cannot be a full second faster just because of tunes. In Monza, you pulled out a 1:48.4. I couldn't even get a 1:49.3! In Suzuka, you and Storm outqualified me and TG by half a second-a full second. In this race, you qualified with a 1:31.2, with me and TG getting 31.9/32.1. I did some tests, and was easily able to do a 1:31.0 with the Evora.

Well, gatrs said he would alredy look into it. On top of the changes I said I would already make. Hopefully this will make you more competitive.

Not just me, but TG and others as well. Like I said, we're all fairly even drivers, but the gap between the Evora and the rest of the field is just too big. Don't mistake me, I definitely want to win, but I don't want to take away your guys' competitiveness as well. I mean, if the Viper was found to be 5 tenths faster than the field then yes, I won't have a problem with it being made slower.

I was a second faster than everyone at Monza in practice. When y'all got 1:49's in quali, my practice laps were 1:48's. Obviously I had connection issues and couldn't join, but if I was there and wasn't hitting 1:47's towards the end of the race then I wouldn't have been disappointed with myself.
I'm looking into the Viper now, and thus far I'm getting 1:31.8. To be honest I could match my quali for Lotus in the Viper, and somewhere there's a 1:31.4 (Sector 1 was 23.8 seconds on the lap I messed up, compared to the 24.2 seconds for my 1:31.8). That's a nearly full tank.
I'm gonna run 470 bhp and 1290 kg next week.

Want me to use a surprise car at Spa?
Also, at the end of the last race (Indy), Anthony wasn't trying to hit Seth while Seth was fishtailing a bit (his tires were gone), but he did tap Seth trying to avoid him (a small amount of lag to help), but not enough to warrant anything really. At the finish line, Anthony was ahead of Seth just by a nose according to my replay. So, unless an appeal arises, the results stand as is.

My quali time was 1:31.6, I did 1:31.8 in the Viper with a possibility of 1:31.4.

I don't get this. I get extra weight but the other cars are faster? Look at the replay and you'll see that the Pescarolo was able to get into the 1:21's. I never touched the 1:21's even with low fuel. If I get penalized in weight, I think the Pescarolo should get 510hp. Anthony has won THREE TIMES in a row now, but I'm getting a weight gain... gotta lol at that.
EDIT: Pescarolo has won 4 times in a row including the last time cnd raced.

I think maybe we should test two cars (Bentley - Pescarolo) at Spa (three drivers: Seth, me and other driver, for example) and then make an average about the times. Because I did 1.21.8, that is right, but with low fuel, you did pole with 1.22.2 with full fuel and you told that you could run at 1.21 and that is true!
