AUS/NZ Monthly Endurance Races

[Ealirendur]

I spent about 2 hours refreshing the used car dealership looking for the XR8...

No dice... This could get interesting.

Hi. I can never make the times you guys run at, but I usually look in.

Anyways, to try to help out...

The car is also available from the Level 21 ticket - reloading one of those might be faster.

Alternately, you could find out how many game days/refreshes away the car is in the UCD with the search at http://gt5cars.net/used_car_searches/new - you just need your current top 6 cars. You might want to check the intervening time for other stuff you want, though (Nardo, C12S 7.3...)

Hey Rota
Just wanted to make sure, we can put the Turbo on the xr8.

Just ran a few laps and was getting around 1.05.5 with race hards if anyone is interested.

 

[Rotamasta7]

Hey jol, can you get the XR8 up to 630pp without the turbo, I'm going to jump on now and see what im running, I think with setting a pp, the turbo will be open, I could check everyone is not running it and say its not available but will have to get back to you and see what people think.

 

[Rotamasta7]

Right I just jumped on and had a few laps. What do you guys want to do? We can run at 630pp without bolting on the turbo, which would give you a more realistic race after all, or do you guys want to run the race with the turbo on, Mid or High RPM, whichever the driver wants.

I would prefer we ran without the turbo, but I deff would like to do what the majority here feel is best, So please let me know asap so we can let everyone know.

 

[jol_1]

I'm fine leaving it with no Turbo Rota, but anyway is good for me, i haven't got the Turbo on at the moment.

What pp do you have at the moment, i think I'm below 630 but will have to look when i get home.

 

[Rotamasta7]

I can get above 630pp easily, I just set it to 630 to allow for people choosing between power and aero, as I have done testing with spinner and I know he gets quicker times with less aero and more power, and I get quicker times running more aero. So I wanted to keep a little bit of that tuning for your style of driving but still at a high pp. If your not hitting 630pp with the turbo off, your car mustnt be fully run in mate, because i get about 632-635pp with full aero and no turbo.

 

[jol_1]

Yea i thought so, ill have to give it to bob for a few laps.

 

[stape 11]

I'm in if you'll have me love the enduros

 

[Rotamasta7]

Ok guys, got some annoying news....

Me, Spin, Waynz, taital and others started up this enduro each month purely to have fun and run some races we would not normally be able to do online.

That is why I made that poll for the 1st of April. I wanted to know the numbers for this race.

The XR8 race around Rome Reverse has been on many of our minds for MONTHS, and the race was what got our minds thinking about this Endurance race series. Therefore when some of our committed drivers like taital, cactass and Mike can't make the race, we didn't think it was fair. They have been waiting for the race for a very long time.

So I'll shut up and get to it... We will not be running the XR8 race this April 1st due to missing some drivers for the race.

Althought we arn't running the XR8's, we WILL still be running a race spec car on April 1st, and having the usual 1.5 to 2 hour enduro on the sunday night. Me and Spinner are jumping on soon to do a fair bit of testing for the new car and track so we can get the regs to you asap. Sorry for the change, and the XR8 race will probably be run the next race spec enduro.

Thanks everyone

Also, I cannot remove the poll until it closes, so please ignore it til then. thanks, Please let ANYONE that is on the drivers list know incase they havent read this post.

 

[Rotamasta7]
