Circuit La Sarthe 700 pp non stop cars

PD ........ We won . ( at least one time)

After the " heavy duty " for us due to Easter Sunday ( don't worry,Its all about food, roasted lamp etc. ) I open the game at late noon today.
Few hours ago i saw a vid that someone did 7 laps with the 962 on intermediate tyres and still have tyres !!!! 😱
So i said what the hell , let's try it to get and my daily bonus .

Didn't touch my set up ,i put intermediate and jump to the race .

First race ABSOLUTE DRY 7 laps

Next race
Just rain a little, you could easily keep RH without nothing to worry about and the track gets dry in one lap .

Next race , torencial rain start at lap 3 with all colours enable, that heavy rain its one condition that you forget racing and switch on the " drive to survive" mod.

At 5th -6th lap the track was dry in racing line but the AI enabled to the yellow flag party and no more lap needed

The story repeated, yellow flags party for the AI etc and 6 laps on still wet track,not as much as the indicator shows cause am standing on s wet side ,but was wet .

So am proud to present...... Another man's discovery in fact .
962 can do it after 1.31 without pit ,under ANY conditions.

PD ....... We won this time 😋

Edit
Didn't race on his settings but on my own since mine was quicker than his.
Also after rain starts , always i switch to FM5 till the end and at totally dry conditions only at 2 last laps FM 4-5 .

Today i try to make a more " ideal " set up from what i did yesterday on 962 .
Mostly considering my little friend upstairs that isn't familiar with pitstops tyres etc. since i set up his 962 on the fast version.

This settings seems to fit the bill quite well and are even more entertaining cause not only made the car quicker but also more manageable due to more aero both ends.
It doesn't accept RH tyres and the addition of manual gearbox make him quicker than previous.
Tyres will last for 7 laps dry race and since car is more stable in lap times,st dry conditions its not hard to end at 30 minutes and some seconds ( 10- 20 depends on everyone's pace) .
FM6 as standard,but if rain comes FM5 or lower at last laps .
The same applies and for dry race.

Settings

And the result of tyre wear after 7 bone dry laps

Its newbies friendly, stable,safe and enjoyable.
Remanding me the good old days of 1.30 update when i was running the GT 500's at non stop settings.

I think i have cover any side of 962 participating at La Sarthe which definitely deserves the title as a ' Griding Mule " .

Before 1.31, I was a very big fan of the Nissan GT-R '18 (I still love it).
I'll test the 962 and let you know :)

RA272 can do the whole race on RM with FM5 1 lap ahead of 2nd place. No stop needed unless it rains and can do sub-4m lap times with 200mph down Mulsanne.
