CANCELLED. Porsche Cayman Challenge. 300km Brands Hatch.

[Sven Jurgens]

Sunday afternoon, that depends on the weather and my kids. I've got the thread tagged now, will check if you still have space closer to the 15th. What's the estimated duration of the event?

Relatively tentative test laps, and my crap maths put things at a little over two hours. Quali included.

 

[Granadier]

Sounds like a great one-off event. I'm interested.

For the livery; do we have to adhere to those sizes for the Michelin decals as well?

Thanks for the invite!

Well, I mean, I'd like you to. But, I do love a good loophole, and I apparently forgot to state sizing . .

As long as everyone can see them, it's all good

@Bass Addict as Hammy mentioned you in the Bridgestone Tour thread, your welcome to jump in here if it's something you're interested in.

Thank you so much for the invite! I love the car & track so I'm interested...👍

Need to see what the Mrs. has planned for me in March...

Put me down as TBD, will need to get some time behind the wheel first.

Always a wise decision I'm assuming I'm good to go. I usually spend Sunday night at my place.

Nice. Very clean, mate. I like it.

Will do. When did you make the switch to the wheel?

I meant drive the car to see what it's like at that track.

Ah, gotcha. I quite like it. But then, I'm biased.

Good to have you, mate.

Looking like this is going to be a pretty hard fought race.

How long do you think the race will last?

Based on my shockingly sloppy DS4 laps, and crap maths, I think it'll be a little under two hours. A little over with quali included.

I'll run a proper practice session tomorrow, and work things out properly.

 

[El_Beardo]

Running approx 70bhp more, and 90 odd kg less than a BoP spec Cayman, on medium tyres. I'm going to assume (and this is where I could be WAY off) average lap times of approx 1:28. So, 88 seconds a lap x 77. Giving a total time of 6776 seconds, or just under 113 minutes.

Plus quali of 20 mins.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Got it gonna be a near 2 hour race. And with tires and fuel on x1 I expect only two or three stops to be the norm

Time to make a livery!

I'd imagine so, yeah. More than likely two stops for tyres, one for fuel. Unless you splash and dash. Fuel at x1 is good for something like 46/47 laps, if I remember correctly.

@Bivittavus88 Interested but cannot confirm entry, 80% chance I can race. Put me on the reserve list, will let you know when I 100% know if I can make it. Seems like a really fun event, Brands Hatch is one of my favorite circuits in the game!

Car seems OK. Almost runs out of gearing in a couple spots. Should be interesting. Confirming registration.

Awesome. Nice to have you on board, mate.

Want me to put you in the TBC list? If we go over the 16 total, you'll be prioritised. As will @Standard_FV and @Raptor013.

Livery progress:

Need to work on consistency and keeping the Cayman on track, but first laps are encouraging:

Sure thanks! Don't mind my current ratings (3K DR, 60 SR) I'm trying to get matched with my kid (E/B)
I'm usually a pramateur
