I am planning the next Enduro (for May). I want to use race timer set to 2 hours. What are people´s thought about that? It´smy birthday in May so That´d be a good way to celebrate with a 2 hour race

 

[Spooky Wooky]

I think times races work OK, just don't jump the start or it's game over.

Just a quick update on all the racing I'm organising for Saturday. There's a possibility I might not be on later Saturday night but it will definitely start on the afternoon. It will depend on if my mate is coming to stay after he finishes work. If he is then I'll be showing him the game in single player. The rest of the family is away for the weekend as him and I are going to one of the following on Sunday.

British Classic Sports Car race meeting @ Silverstone National

Or

British GT Championship, 4, GT5, Formula 3, Super 7's, VW Golfs, @ Rockingham.

Will know tonight.

 

[Football67611]

C.R.A.P Endurance Race May 21st 2016

Practice starts 1700 GMT, 1800 BST.
Qualify 1800 GMT
Warm up 1830 GMT
Race start 1835 GMT


This month we are going to China’s flat circuit which was created with help from a company from Australia who also helped create a track in Adelaide (where CRAP was founded). A track I still haven’t raced at in Project cars. We are going to Zhuhai International Circuit in an open wheeler. After some testing it was the Formula Gulf 1000 I found best suited for our group of racers. Not too fast. Not too hard to drive. No tuning needed and it had a nice flow around the track.


Tuning will be allowed so we can have pit stops without bugs and fuel/tire will be set to real. Penalties will be set to on and full damage so we have to stay on track at all times and be careful to not disqualify or get damage.


We encourage you to stay from start to finish and not leave or rage quit. Even if you're not the fastest it is an experience and hopefully there will be some traffic since its a relatively short track. Remember that it is the car overtaking that have to find a way around so if you are being lapped you should stay on racing line without moving/slowing down much.


I'll open a room and set it to 1 hour practice, 30 minute qualifying, 10 min warmup and race timer set to 2 hours. That way we have 2 hours practice before race to tune our car and set up pit stops.


We will have 4 weather slots. Clear, light cloud, random and clear. In that order. Time is set to real and race start mid day.


If you want to join you have to sign up on CRAP Enduro thread on GTPlanet at latest 1 hour before practice start. Any other settings will be what they usually are (room settings, driving aids etc).


My first lap times were around 1:46.x but got down to 1:38.x after a few laps with stock setup in time trial so do a few laps before race start.


Sign up!

[bloodyboyblue]

I'll be there probably also.

 

[DropBuckets]

@knukken I'll be there mate! Looks like a good combo aswell, Zhuhai is quite under used on PCARS sadly .

 

[knukken]

Is this OK? Not sure when it usually start.

Looks fine to me. I don't think there is a "usually" where CRAP endurance is concerned. We've had them on all different days/times.

 

[buybon355]

Please add me to this

 

[knukken]

Please add me to this

Hi! Are you CRAP member? What's your psn Id? I'll add you to the list 👍

 

[bloodyboyblue]

Hi! Are you CRAP member? What's your psn Id? I'll add you to the list 👍

He's my gt6 racing "friend" and we've never had a chance to race each other on pCARS before, he should be faster than me since he's on a wheel and I'm on a controller. His PSN ID is the same as his gtp name

 

[knukken]

We have an event tomorrow night (details in main thread). It would be good if he and you join and do some races so he gets used to us before jumping in a 2 hour race only to leave after a few laps (based on previous experience). I'm not saying he will do that but 2 hours is a long time to race if you're not comfortable with the other racers.

And make sure to read the CRAP Commandments 👍

That's not how we do things (quitting races). I did the same thing last time, joined you randomly even though I didn't know you and you didn't know me.

I host my series in GT6 on Friday nights also

 

[buybon355]

Hi knukken, as blue says, psn name is buybon355. We've raced together for a couple of years now across numerous organised leagues and club nights and are generally evenly matched. We're part of a great group of racers who all want the same thing - close clean respectful racing. We have it in gt6, I'm looking to find it in pcars to get more enjoyment from the game.

I'll dig through the forum and read the rules and regs, didn't realise you hosted other events too. Once blues series finishes I'd love to jump in and have some races when I can.

 

[knukken]

I don't host races. Every month a different person hosts an endurance race and this time it was my turn 👍

There's someone on every day with a open room in CRAP if you want good racing. Here's our main thread

https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/crap-pcars-club-gt4-nürburgring-24h-fri-6-may-9pm-uk.327783/

I know you're a clean driver @bloodyboyblue and I have no reason to doubt @buybon355.

Then I'd say welcome to the club guys. I think one of you might also know @Eyeseeh50 PSN:ICH-Motorsport (who is like knukken also one of our moderator /admin team) from Gran Turismo days.

Anyway, welcome to CRAP guys. I'll add you both to our member list in the main club thread. We try and run a mix of events including lots of one off races or mixed racing session. Some of the guys from CRAP run their own series too. Sending friend requests to active members on the CRAP pCARS thread or putting in a general request for others to add you will get you invites to our regular race events.

Cheers
JSB
