Put it this way - if LM 2005 had just time change (never mind weather) - it would have been in.

I'm a fan of it, but the chicane-less LM05 is a nightmare to spec cars for. Not as a single race, but for a whole season it poses enormous matchup-problems. It's almost impossible to balance cars that are 10kph apart in top speed as by the time you reach the end of that straight, you will have lost seconds in the slower car.

With the other variants a car might still have the better top speed, but it usually doesn't have such a big advantage during the acceleration process. Once the cars get near their top speed however, the advantage is permanent and when you stay at that speed for a whole minute … you do the math. The chicanes luckily keep that in check.
 
Sorry guys but I'm not competing this weekend or for the rest of the season. I've given up on trying to figure what the hell is wrong with my connections, nothing I do works and its frustrates me the more I try so I'm just done racing online period. It annoys me to no end that I somehow went a whole weekend without connections issue only to have them repeatidly the next as opposed to having it work every weekend.

It was at least fun racing with you guys that one time.
 
It seemed to be ok on Sunday at the Daytona race, doesn't help that the GT6 servers are atrocious

Last weekend was just perfect. I had no issues for three days straight so that sunday everything was just working perfect. All day today though, its been just a pain.

Just wondering why the 250 GTO did not get a BoP reduction as its dominating GT-O?

Yeah, but you see, that's the tricky part. There's someone actually driving these vehicles as well. :rolleyes:

You know who was dominating at Daytona last season? Yera in front of me. The cars we drove then were not OP'd then, they are not now.

I really don't know why you're still going on about this. You're leaving GT-O now that the better tracks for your car are coming up and you know perfectly well that I couldn't even get past you in Daytona, because the GTO is so slow on the straights. I've offered to anyone who's having doubts to run demonstration laps to show what the cars can do, so, no offence, but unless somebody picks me up on that offer and I can't get the car anywhere close to my own (or be even faster as a quick test in the E-Type at Daytona showed), with all due respect, I won't be listening to your whining anymore.
 
And with all respect... whislt I can say it more subtly... the 250 GTO complaints are for zero. Haven't seen Daiba lapping faster than anyone else completing 1-2-3's and I didn't hear complaints about the 300SL last season when Snow was faster than anyone else.
