[B-Spec] 1995 Indianapolis 500 Single Race

[Suzumiya]

Bah. I'll set something new up.

 

[DcrRaikkonen]

I gained speed actually..Yes!

 

[GTRacer22]

I forgot to make a new setup.

 

[YayoiGT2]

What in Flandre's name happened that caused my second car to blow up @Earth?

 

[BKGlover]

A bit more speed, but I'm still way behind.

 

[aarror]

Hey, that's a good opening shot! Don't know how to make it faster but at least I know I have a good base to fall back on.

 

[Jahgee]

Beta was the wrong way, now onto Alpha Mk. II

 

[RACECAR]

A bit more speed, but I'm still way behind.

At least you showed up on the board. I don't even think my team exists in this timeline

 

[BKGlover]

I thought someone was missing. Did you send in a setup?

 

[RACECAR]

Nope, probably explains it

 

[Eh Team]

We're still missing @Angel and @Formidable. Send those setups in, we want a full grid here.

Also: I'M NOT LAST! Problem is I have no clue what to do now.

 

[SonicCharmeleon]

Not Bad, better that i do in Super GT!

[YayoiGT2]

Oh dear, my new setup has gone backwards. If my cars went any slower we might be stuck in reverse! This is why Scuderia Pergusa don't do ovals, boys and girls.

 

[GTRacer22]

Goddamnit.

 

[BKGlover]

OK @Earth, from here on will we still be getting average speeds only or can we get lap times?

That said I've gotta figure out how to get more speed out of the car without hacking the wings off it.

 

[Eva]

I still have to submit a setup. Oops.

 

[aarror]

Aww yeah! I mean, it's obviously tough to drive because the other car was 3MPH slower but still! I lead a B-spec session!

 

[Eh Team]

OK @Earth, from here on will we still be getting average speeds only or can we get lap times?

That said I've gotta figure out how to get more speed out of the car without hacking the wings off it.

Very easy to calculate actually, speed = distance/time, so time = distance/speed. What you'll get is the time in hours so multiply the time by 3600 seconds and you'll have your lap time.

#37 - 39.704
#38 - 39.825

Much better than my regressing speed, I got no clue what to do.

 

[DcrRaikkonen]

Yes I gained 3 MPH again. My reading has paid off.

 

[RACECAR]

Well, I'm just as godawful on oval Setups as I am on Road course Setups.

 

[SonicCharmeleon]

Still terrible but at least I'm beating people!

 

[Jahgee]

Will sell 2nd practice session setup for cash

 

[RACECAR]

Will sell 2nd practice session setup for cash

If you could kindly go walk off that cliff, that'd be nice.

 

[Jahgee]

If you could kindly go walk off that cliff, that'd be nice.

227.2 & 227.8 isn't that bad, basically I recycled my WEC setup but made it asymmetrical

 

[BKGlover]

227.2 & 227.8 isn't that bad, basically I recycled my WEC setup but made it asymmetrical

knowing that you had the same base I did yet I couldn't seem to get anywhere near you, forgive me for feeling justified in this:

Oh 🤬 you!

 

[Pezzarinho17]

I'm left not knowing what to do at all! Think the speeds we are at just means we are in the unstable region of the cars setup... And we all know the #17 won't finish anyway!

 

[Earth]

I'll probably make the race a 30 minute Highlight video instead of uploading the entire 2 1/2 hours.

Once both team cars are locked into the race they arent allowed to run in more qualifying sessions

Qualifying Speed is based on a 4 Lap Average Speed, like this

 

[Earth]

OK theres going to be a couple big changes

I've decided to scrap the 2 extra days of qualifying, and just have one qualifying session. The reasons being we dont have enough cars to do any amount of serious bumping, and the differences in the 4 laps between the cars is not as big as I had hoped. Each car gains about the same amount of speed throughout the 4 laps so a 4 lap average doesnt mean much in the game. So I've decided to make the fastest single lap of the 4 laps for each car its qualifying time.

To try and create drama I'm going to update this post over the next couple of days as I qualify more cars.

So far this is the leaderboard of the 11 cars that have qualified
