BST V8 challenge S2 "The new breed" Reserves needed!

[Gedi69]

I predict atleast one high speed corner accidant probably involving a Lotus.

And a Ferrari.

 

[Carbonox]

Okay, I've picked my tactic following this 'warm-up' of mine. I won't reveal anything, but will say good luck to anyone who picks the one-stop strategy

 

[neljack]

I still think as long as you dont mess up a 1 stop is the best.

I can't see how I'd get a 1 stop! Good luck to tho's who do.

I don't think so, but to each their own I guess.

The most important part comes after the 2 stoppers have made their first stop, because from then on, all will pit once more, and therefore that's when the gap totally starts to matter. I, however, think that we'll have a couple of barely controllable cars on the track in the last 5 laps.

 

[Akmuq]

Like earlier in the F1 season with the Pirelli's.

 

[neljack]

Although that doesnt mean I wont 2 stop, will just have to see how the race pans out

Spot on imo i have a strategy but that could go right out the window if i get caught up in a position battle.

I'm not fast enough to 2 stop and been in with any chance. My only hope is a 1 stopper and avoid getting excited and wrecking tyres early in the race.

Sounds to me that you're a very smooth driver but not aggressive enough to make the 2-stopper work. It's very fun having an extra stop, you can pretty much go flat out for the whole race.

This is true flat out for me is 12 laps after that im on thin ice but your so right flat out here is way much more fun.

 

[A.Rackers]

Hey guys im not sure if i will be able to race tonight as im having loads of problems with GT5 and cant get on the game just comes up with the loading screen so just installing the game again but looks like it could take a couple of hours i will try make the race if its done befor if not have a good race guys

 

[cunny17]

There's no sand but if someone spins in front of you in the last turn and you get out off the throttle you loose a lot of time. Even rail riding in last turn will cost a couple of seconds, found this out when i got high up on the kerb and could not get off.

Not so fast, we might have a full grid with Furi on board.

Dont worry ive heard speeding is acceptable if you have to make a GT5 event 👍

 

[Quantum_H4i]

[DrivingForce]

[R35 SKYLIN3]

Yes jb you know better

 

[DrivingForce]

I'm not looking forward to this race at all. I'm just going to get monstered down the straights

 

[Furinkazen]

1:02.1 for me... 1:01.8 Jonzster!

 

[Akmuq]

May not make race 1.

Just got premium though.

 

[R35 SKYLIN3]

Absolutely fuming. Connection let me down.. And it's just been an endless spate of problems with me.. You will all see me at spa.

 

[Carbonox]

I swear, that car did not act like it was supposed to...

 

[Furinkazen]

Sorry guys. Race 1 I hit wall, tyre went at 10 laps. So I halved camber and toe... which made it worse Still, Epic start and first 5 laps though.

 

[VRracingfan]

I'm sorry about quitting guys in race 2, I wa already half a lap behind on lap 3 and I was just going to be getting in everyone else's way so I thought it would be bestto just leave and not cause any more accidents.
Tyres went off halfway through race 1 but somehow didn't finish last, I think Lotus was having some problems though as he complained after (I think?). Sorry Carbonox for hitting you, I forgot what your response was but I think it was probably my fault was losing the car right infront of you anyway.
Race 2 was going a bit better but then I might have been hit, not sure though as the car was a bit unpredictable in 3 corners including turn 1. Hit gedi the lap later as I wasn't expecting him to brake so early, but my misjudgement nonetheless.
I think some practice is needed after this disaster. I wasn't exactly Michael Schumacher before but i'd say I was half decent, not total b***s like today.
