SLS and R8 for AM. GT-R for Pro. But I think @Ninners is taking the GT-R.

 

[Roflwaffle]

Hopefully I'm in AM so I can take the SLS

 

[Ninners]

Yes I'm using the GTR.

 

[gtpcaine]

Welcome aboard all! Ninners, I'll add you to the OP now, Rofl I will add once determined what category 👍

 

[RS__96__oO]

NICE to see you here, guys 👍

 

[Mini Stiggy]

Some pics:


Glen narrowly missing big trouble.

This is what's going through my head.


Oh 🤬, what's that?

🤬, It's a Mikey! BRAKE! and brake HARD!

🤬🤬🤬 Big:censored:!

I'm alive!?!?!

Thank you brakes for not spinning me out when I slammed you and turned!

 

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

Nice pics mate 👍 I might be wrong but I'm sure that is Nifty in the 1st pic, I'm sure Glen was ahead of me

Got some of my own


Everyone ready for the start?

Glen setting me up for a pass

SIDE BY SIDE ABOUT TO BRAKE FOR BUS STOP

I have to concede that Glen has me and back out, great pass for the lead of the race and dominant after that, only saw you again when you come to lap me

Great bit of team work letting me by even though was for overall race position, really helped

Glen got so close to lapping 2nd place man merlin, but fortunatly for merlin he had just pitted and on new rubber

A beautiful sunrise over the daytona banking

A near perfect drive sees Glen take victory at Daytona, Congrats

99% sure it was Glen

 

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

If I'm right it was my 1st incident on about lap 28, at that time Glen was about 10-15 seconds ahead, I could be wrong but I didn't crash in front of Glen until much later in the race if at all.

I'll check the replay later:tup:

Quick question, of someone reached only the 50% of the race distance ( like me now ) , but has the pole and the fastest lap (i'm not sure abou the fastest lap but maybe it was mine too), will he gets the 2 bonus point?

I think yes. It´s the same situation as in previous WEC race, where Caine disconnected, but I don´t know exactly

 

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

@HMilan21 Yes you will keep the pole point as you did start the race in pole and you did also get the fastest lap so will keep your bonus point for that too

 

[Tk_Hansen]

soo..
What is considered a fast lap at Le mans in these things
right now my best is 3:53,630. without any penalties
do not think i can go much faster than that bo who knows

 

[Glenalz81]

low 50's spot on m8.. think stiggy mighta got a 49' during pre-season tests in the r8..but race pace will prob b 53's-54's 👍

Stewards Report:​

Decision: No further action as it is a difficult start.

TK_Hansen & GTP_Revoy, Lap 1, Turn 2: Contact.
Decision: Racing incident, no further action.

Niftyshifty1 (lap 27) & HMilan21 (lap 26), Final banking: Contact.
Decision: HMilan21: Avoidable contact, no further action as HMilan21 was the only driver to lose a substantial amount of time and suffered substantial damage.

Decision: DPinho1975: Avoidable contact: Reprimand.

GTP_Revoy: Pit entry limit x9.
Decision: 5 place grid penalty
There was a clear explanation of the expected pit entry in the drivers brief and it appears you missed it and done what you know from real world racing. We asked for driver's to enter the pit lane on the left of the thick yellow entry line for safety reasons for car's returning to the pit lane with damage.
Please read the drivers brief and ensure you know what we expect.

Good job to everyone at Daytona, it was a decent size starting grid! Great to see all AM drivers that started the race still running at the end, lets see more of that please!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looking forward to seeing you all in Europe at Le Mans (details to follow soon)​

 

[HMilan21]

48.5 will be pretty much possible, if not better, without the pp penalties. Lack of power will result even more loss of time here than Daytona...

 

[merlinrichards]

30 mins session pulling 51.6 ruff laps on my 617pp, hopfully try an get cleaner, faster and a lil lower I defo wont see lower than 50.5's

 

[Roflwaffle]

For the test, what car should I use?

 

[Ninners]

Check the files in OP and read the Driver Evaluation section.

 

[Roflwaffle]

It just says "Choose a car of your choice from the series" How am I supposed to know what car I want to drive, if I don't even know what class I'm in?

 

[Ninners]

Though you said you were in AM class as when I joined pro had 1 spot left. AM has the SLS & R8.

 

[Roflwaffle]

But Mikey said he would set-up a grading session for me anyway?

 

[gtpcaine]

Well put it this way, if you are fast enough to qualify for PRO class, there aren't any spots left anyway. So you might as well practice in either the SLS / R8 and do the test in whichever one you feel most comfortable in, hoping that you qualify as an AM. 👍

 

[Roflwaffle]

Good, I'll pick the SLS then 👍
