FIA GT World Championship [S2] | Aboe and SK8RBOI Are Champions!Finished 

Ok. time for my AM race report.

The Qualifying for AM started on schedule and went fine except that @joetruckv8 did not know the qualifying had started. Once the Formation lap began, it started out smoothly but then we noticed that Joetruck did not move off of his starting position, We attempted to slow down so that Joe could reach the feild but he instead left the race. The formation lap ended up being kinda sloppy and that was partly my fault, I maybe should've called for a second pace lap but I didn't think I had enough time to. Once the race started the two Audi drivers collided into each other, giving the lead to my teammate, I battled against @SSJGZWarrior for many laps. By the time I had pitted on lap 20 I had come out in 4th place. My teammate; @Shahar had a messy pit stop and allowed me to take 2nd. After 1st place had pitted I had held the lead for the rest of the race, however there was a big problem; I had no fuel left. For the last 4 laps I had to go slower than usual and allowed Shahar to get within half a second of me. At the end of the race I had finish with just a liter of fuel remaining and my teammate half a second behind.

Pro's of this pre-season

  • Great/equal competition
  • Fun strategy testing
Cons
  • Drivers need to add the host
  • Stay alert when Qualifying and race starts
  • Improving formation lap
Yea my pedals usb plug had sliglty pulled out of the ps3 (i guess someone tripped over it), so I backed out right before you guys came around to my broken cars position. I didnt want to ruin anyone else's race (heavy damage). I guess I could of called for a re start, but instead I decicded to play it quiet and read you guys telementry during race. In the end, I'm glad enough to have at least obtained that vital data on my drivers/chassis opposion overall. :sly:👍

To touch on the driver to driver incidents; after a couple of races, we'll know each other and our chassis better; hence the racing will get better between drivers. We just need a couple of races under our belt to get use to one another. Think long haul gentlemen, this series is going to be great and fun because all drivers have a shot at podiums and wins with us split into 2 separate divisions...
 
No problem, Ryan. I think it was a great warming for all of us. Once we qualified at first and third, I think we have a potential for the championship. Our cars are running good, but Brands will be a challenge.

on to brands hatch hopefully we can get a full grid :D
 
He did a 1:27 at the red bull rink with me in the nissan gt3 and i gave him the car specs according to the series. He's quick but I don't know how he would do on the grading cause he tunes all his cars and never uses the default set up. Plus I thught we already have a full AM grid according to the driver's championship sheet?

I hope these Drivers are AM Drivers. I believe were at 12 or 13. That will give us almost a full grid like the PRO Division,
:) happy to see all the enthusiasm. Joetruck you are really living up the thread thanks for the support:)

We are currently but he can be a reserve and prpbably make every race
 
No, he can drive only one car and can drive in the room as long as there is free space. If 3 drivers with the same car are in the same room, it's not a problem.
oh yea I know he can only race when their is room (no more than 2 cars per team) hence reserve. but I just wanted to know if it's possible for him to be a corvette and a Nissan reserve that's all :)
 
OK, race results are HERE. Don't worry about the points, I just simulated them to check if my formulas works correctly, these points will not count for the championship. it's 3am now here, I'm off to bed. Night chaps ;). And I wil answer tomorrow on questions about the results. As you can see I mixed Pro and Am to simulate a 1 hour race with all drivers in the same room. I removed lap 1 (formation lap) time from the final time.

EDIT: And I'll complete the Best lap column tomorrow as well, night all 👍
