I know Gadget, iwasere and myself won't be able to run a different weekend to the scheduled one

Okay that's fine then ill just miss out

Shame my BMW didn't have any top end speed or any torque, the GTR was pushing pretty well with all the torque that has. I was falling a lap down on each stint good job there was some cautions so I could unlap myself, or I would of gave up as well. hopefully my car will be abit better at Spa 👍

I believe we will be adjusting the cars soon. Yesterdays Indy race showed some cars have the speed and some don't.

Lots to say and do, but re working Autobacs new Op took all my time tonight so Op points and comments will resolved tomorrow night. Sry for the 1 day delay drivers you guys deserve more than that! 👍

Awesome race again,... gippone

 

[GTracer38]

Joe you moved the topic under racing series of Forza Motorsport LOL

 

[JoRdY105]

Hahahahaha! Oh gosh

 

[RichyB28]

Do we need to buy a :censored:box and forza to complete the season now?

Roderunner i didn't mean my car needs an upgrade in performance, it did at indy tho. but im cool with it regs as is, its got good midrange power and its good on its tyres, don't think it would ever be able to beat the ford GT's at the current specs tho, any chance in jumping teams to Toyota joe?, as none of those guys in the supra's have raced in the last 2-3 rounds, im getting bored with the BMW now as well, having to push it to it limits just to keep up in most races. no problem if not joe

I didn't get a chance to comment, but I noticed the Bmw's problem was in the turns more than the hp getting down the track. When I was following Rich I couldn't reel him in while he was drafting. I caught him in the turns when that BMW chassis would walk up the track as he tried to take the turns at the speeds the GT1 chassis were taking them.

 

[freshseth83]

What times were you running without draft?

 

[joetruckv8]

You would of still did good the pack really never separated with the cautions and the draft. 4 of us in 3 different chassis crossed the finish line with in .001 of each other. Working on those spread sheets tonight when my room mate gets here. She knows how to really work the excel. 👍

 

[Pluxtheduck]

Never driven a GT3 car around here only Super GT's as I can remember, but I'm expecting to break the 2:15's mark. Usually 2:13 for the super fast guys 2:15 for good pace to win or get podium, and 2:17 for the slower guys. I haven't did laps yet because we are racing a new created track for opening round of Autobacs so most of my practice has been with that series but I will be clocking my 1st set of practice laps Monday Night. I have a kart race this weekend so there is a chance that I may miss this round our I will take my Ps3 with me and play with the old Ds3 at my Families house to reduce chances of losing madd points. Plux is increasing his lead so I need to finish in front of him which has not happen recently yet and TnT & Jordy are gaining on me and they are also with in 1 DNS of pts, so I don't want to miss anything.

 

[freshseth83]

2:14s from earlier in the year. Were a bit faster than real life, we can take Eua Rouge flat out. Only lmp's and F1 can do that (DTM could as well but they haven't raced there recently).

Back in 2008, the pole for the Spa 24 was the Labre Competition Saleen S7R @2:13.9

 

[joetruckv8]

Will start Blancpain Spa testing Monday Night in Tyson's mic's on lounge. Come 1, come all! 👍

 

[freshseth83]

Will do my best to make this race. Been tough with the g.f though. Whatever...

You will be okay Joe, on my end at least! I've already explained I can't make this one due to my holiday!

 

[freshseth83]
