Yeh, you have to brake a lot earlier than you might think, I think the mics on idea worked well too makes the overtaking safer aswell

 

[Ellis]

I think though penalties should be dropped. They are silly on that track.

 

[berty1979]

Spurgey-Mics are ok in enduro's but it depends on who is in the room and how many as it increases the chance of frame rate problems etc.

Ellis- They are off at NB24hr of course but I guess your on about Sarth so Ill think about dropping penalties but consider the following.
a) as this is a short championship if anyone cuts they would have to be disqualified as points penalties wouldnt work here.
b) Drivers know the penalties are there so they should drive accordingly.
c)I would need 5 stewards to help me trawl through the whole race to check everyone hasnt cheated

 

[Ellis]

yes but I think people are mature enough these days to not too unless ferg races. I wouldn't these days. Its silly things like entrances to corners are over restricted.

 

[berty1979]

I agree that there are three places where the penalties are ridiculous. I hate them as they slow me down with my racing lines (using kerbs etc.). But the practical problem of people cheating remains

 

[Ellis]

Threaten them with death by b and q tools

 

[berty1979]

I could try that

Brett - Whats happening then because I can race the supercars on saturday. What cars are left and is there space for me?

Can I take the Aston Martin V12 as its free?

 

[berty1979]

You pulled out?
Have you got the DLC for the V12?

Ellis- No mic's now mate.

 

[ETID]

No I didn't I just couldn't race in the second week which I thought was supercars but it was LMPs.

I said at the start I can do the 1st and 3rd week.

I have the DLC yes.

 

[berty1979]

Ok, thats fine then. You can take the V12 but make sure its run in or you wont be anywhere near 615pp

 

[ETID]

I fully tuned it and put aero, took about 300KG off and can only get 596 PP but I'll oil change it later see if that makes a difference.

 

[Ellis]

Ah ruddy hell this means no mics now your back in

 

[berty1979]

Yeah, I dont know if you have got over 300 miles on the clock. If not you will have to drive it a bit to gain bhp. Remember free run doesnt count 👍

Ellis- Sorry mate

 

[gippone]

Can I sign up?

[berty1979]

You can indeed. You need to come up with another supercar though. Pick one that isnt already taken or suggest something that isnt on the list. 👍

I'll add you tonight

 

[Ellis]

Are you sure negotiations cannot be reopened for microphones

 

[Spurgy 777]

They probably wont mess about if its a serious race, and you could just let everyone else use mics, does make the racing safer

 

[berty1979]

Yeah but they do get carried away and if they start chatting 🤬 it will piss everyone else off 👎

Gippone- The NSX's are all available in the new car dealer mate. Can you let me know your car choices soon as I would like to fix the OP 👍

Gippone- I see it, thanks.

OP updated.

Just done some testing in the V12 Vantage round the Nurbo 24h.

I got a 8:43.xx as my best lap on sports softs, SRF off, grip on real with no mistakes. Also I worked out that you gain an extra 2 BHP per lap at the Nurbo 24h so if anyone is low on power get some laps in.

The V12 is at 742 BHP and 603 PP atm.

What sort of times is everyone else getting? I am looking forward to seeing everyone's cars as people will be painting them and putting on different wheels and what not. My V12 is looking beautiful and sounds so sexy!
