[B-Spec] 2016 World Sportscar Championship

[Pezzarinho17]

It's the same here Aarror... We'll just say it is intended to build the suspense!

 

[Earth]

Unfortunately had the same issue as Daytona, the stream froze with about 8 hours to go but the actual game itself ran fine. I could have tried to alt-tab it and restart the stream but if I did that there was a 50/50 chance it would crash the game. I decided to go ahead and just let it play out. Definitely need new hardware if Im going to try and stream another 24 hour race.

I apologize for the stream dropping.

Thank you eveyrone for your participation in this series. 4 long months of racing, I appreciate you guys sticking around. Congratulations to the champions and winners of the LM24 - wont say who you'll just have to see the results.

Spoiler: Transcript of Scuderia Pergusa Team Radio

(one lap before finishing)
Stefano di Fiorano (team director): "Just bring it home Amber, we're all here in the pits cheering you on! Our dream is becoming reality! The crowd has been chanting our names for the last few minutes now!! Even some of our rivals are cheering for us now!!"

(#77 finishes first in GTLM)
Frank Monterrey (race engineer): "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never thought I'd ever say this again, but we've won the Le Mans 24 Hours! Y'all did one hell of a job this whole week! All the overtime, all the long hours, worth it! So worth it!"
Amber Sebringson: "No way... This has to be a dream!! We really won the Le Mans 24 Hours!?"
Jack Acid: "HAHA! YES! WE'VE DONE THE IMPOSSIBLE BOYS AND GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!! OUR LITTLE CREW BEAT THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!! RAVENWEST, ALITALIA, GSR... DOMINATED!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy hell..."
Emma Pergusa: "FINALLY!!!!!!!!! YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! AFTER NEARLY SIXTY YEARS, THE SCUDERIA HAS COME BACK AND WON IT!!!!!!!!!! Mother, Jade, this one's for you both! Ohhh man..."

(a few moments later when the #76 and #78 lock out the top three)
Rena Hirose: "A result like this is more than just a great achievement - it's a miracle! We've gone and done the absolutely impossible!"
Ayu Tsukimiya: "YEAH!!! Take your Saimoe League championships and stuff em, Shana! I've got three of the best things in my racing career that you don't; being a part of a Le Mans 1-2-3 podium lockout, beating Ravenwest, and beating the most winning moe race team of all, Goodsmile Racing! I knew signing with the little Scuderia was worth it!!!"
Yayoi Takatsuki: "Best! Day! Ever! We're never gonna forget this, Ayu! The little race team that could! I'm literally crying buckets of happy tears right now!!"


For about a good five minutes or so, the Scuderia Pergusa crew go insane with cheer, laughter, cursing like drunken sailors, group hugs, and tears of joy.

 

[Suzumiya]

Either way if the stream went with issues, still a great season from you once again. A fantastic series that really got us involved and cheering for our own respective teams. Kudos for taking the time to run this series. 👍 Can't wait until next time!

Spoiler: After Le Mans

Radio Le Mans: "Please welcome our 2016 WSC GTLM champions! The #44 AMR Team Goodsmile team of Suzuka Tsuchigami, Miku Hatsune, and Yui Narumi!"

The three girls walk onto the stage, greeted by countless Japanese and Goodsmile flags down on the track.

Radio Le Mans: "And here comes the trophy! Congratulations, girls! You three deserved it after a very long season!"

The president of the WSC carries and brings the trophy to Suzuka, but then passes it on to Hatsune to lift it up. While lifting it, she breaks into tears.

Radio Le Mans: "Now, onto the team's thoughts for Le Mans, and the entire season, Miku, please, do take your time to collect yourself, I know it's been a great season for you, an amazing journey for all three of you. Please, take us through your experiences throughout 2016."

Miku Hatsune: *still tearing up, voice wobbly* "I... uhm... wow. I can't believe we went all the way to this level to compete with the best out there in the racing world, our team was the best. They were so inviting, they were willing to be patient and help me in driver development. Everyone thought I was doing this for a publicity stunt, and media thought I would be a liability for the team! But I showed them! I showed everyone that I could do it! *starts breaking into tears again, Suzuka hugs her and tries to console her*

Radio Le Mans: "Now we move on to the team director, Katayama, congratulations on the championship! Your team won both the constructors and the driver's championship, how does that make you feel as a director?"

Ukyo Katayama: "We went very far, that's for sure. It's been a uphill battle for the team, and Le Mans totally showed this. The #43 ran into unfortunate trouble early on due to an on track incident, and the #45 had a trouble on pit road, with the car stalling. However, the girls here kept their head up and lead the most important car out of harms way and totally showed that they belong here. From Aston Martin engine problems to some nasty accidents, we fought through those things and showed that we are the team to beat!... I can't wait until next year, now!"

For not changing my setup at all after points paying races started, 2nd place isn't so bad. Prepared to get rekt in the Indy 500 skrubs

Just use the default setup, you'll be fine

 

[Jahgee]

Just use the default setup, you'll be fine

Nah, I've already almost equaled the amount of setups I sent into this for that, I plan on winning something in these series for once

 

[aarror]

Damn, where was that all season? Still not enough to catch 3rd in the championship, but I'm happy with a double podium in the finale.

Thanks @Earth for an excellent season! And congrats to our champions:

[BKGlover]

Thank you @Earth for running this as well as you have, and congrats to the champs and the winners this season. I apologize for my involvement.

 

[tbwhhs]

First, thanks to @Earth for running the series, even though my teams performance was far from what I hoped it was great fun.

And I would also like to give my congratulations to the champions.

 

[Pezzarinho17]

Spoiler: Team Pezzarinho

WOOOOOO!!!! Champions once again!!!! Le Mans 24 Hours winners!!!! A shame about the #17 YET AGAIN and we'll just never know whether the #18 would have given us a 1-2-3 as well.... But once again, saved by #16, who had enough points on it's own to take the teams championship! Talk about carrying the team... Delighted!

Congratulations also to @Suzumiya on claiming the GTLM titles, and to to @YayoiGT2 for that awesome 1-2-3 in GTLM class at Le Mans!

Congratulations to everyone involved once again with such an amazing series. Of course special thank you to @Earth for running these championships / races at great personal effort. We are forever in your debt!

Nice to have a okay result in le mans I was expecting worse really and 2nd in the lmp1 championship is a good result for me.

Congrats to the champions and thank you @Earth for hosting another great b-spec series.

 

[Earth]

The next generation of endurance sportscar racing is almost here. Special effort has been put into keeping the events and strategy fresh, exciting, and hopefully worth your time.

In preparation, if you'd like to reserve the car numbers you used from the 2016 WSC now is the time to do it.
