FRL - WSC X - THE 12th LE MANS CLASSIC TO FILO & ANDIL; THE CHAMPIONSHIPS TO JAMMY & SNOWGT!Finished

[Siggers]

First race in a while where I myself didn't make any mistakes. All my damage was from Gt-P drivers.

Big 👍 to roflwaffle for running into the back of me. I crashed into chris who spun out in front of me at the hairpins, then had many other events of minor contact/near misses.
You guys need to learn from jammy and panoz, they are class of the field and are patient when passing. Half of you keep trying to dive bomb your way through.
Can't just magic my car off the racing line!

And not for the first time this season, you don't appear sometimes to even consider other cars approaches and drive like they don't exist...

You weren't bad tonight though... especially compared to others.

I am looking in my mirrors, but I can't spend the whole race watching them. The problem is I don't know which way people are going to go or if they are going to try and shove it up the inside or not. All of the problems would be avoided if you saved the passing till the straights.

 

[Panoz]

I be honest about us GT-P drivers sometimes thread the needle when passing the GT-Os. Most times I'm patient but there times if I'm racing against another Prototype, I will do some more risky passes.

A somewhat quiet Eiger race for me, but ran out of gas at the end.

Next week at Sierra, I'm in a G56 GT-O El Camino. "The Flying Jackass".

Needs more hillbilly. And cowbell.

 

[raceorama123432]

Couldn't agree more with Siggers. Jammy and Panoz are definitely the class of the field in GT-P as they don't see every corner as a place to pass. And they're the guys who finish at the front!

2nd is almost a shame. Had I not been given damage by a GTP whilst I was being lapped then I would have been right with Snow

 

[Furinkazen]

Me being hit off by people is becoming a very irritating recurring theme for me

 

[raceorama123432]

Also, lapped cars in both classes should move out the way of the leaders. I had no issues but I'm fairly certain I saw GTP drivers trying to put a lap on other drivers and they were still trying as hard as they could. I pulled over to let Snow past, Siggers and Ed let met me past. There's no need to hold faster drivers behind.

 

[FlyingFox]

A good race for me apart from 30 minutes in crashing in to siggers who had spun in the tunnel nowhere to go and could not stop in time. Not to worry I'll take 3rd.

 

[snowgt]

If I'm not mistaken, GT-O standings are now…

O'rama: 135
Snow: 132
Siggers: 125
Fox: 86

Close top 3

 

[chrisjohnson93]

I didn't have any incidents with the GT-O drivers, did go 3 wide with the 2 Corvette's at one point

 

[raceorama123432]

Need to start beating Snow again.

 

[chrisjohnson93]

Need to stop being a No.2 driver again.

Fixed it for you

While today's race was pretty well jam-packed with banter, nothing outbantered

Furi vs. the Pitwall: Episode 3

Will this be the final episode? Stay tuned to find out in a month's time!​

 

[jammy21]

All I can say is that I'm glad that the Matterhorn and the Eigar races are done. These races were very stressful because of multiclass cars, narrow track and no room for any mistakes.
To me Eigar went little better than Mattarhorn - only one total stop to wait clear way to pass and one spun by my own. Other than those no any big moments.

At the start of the race Panoz was very close many laps but little by little I was apply to grow gap to give me little time to recover any mistakes that I made. Rest of the race was staying steady pace and carefull lapping.

As for lapping - I've been both side (GT-O and GT-P) - it's kind of dance. When it goes well it's good feeling but if it's not then it's very frustrating.
Last season was good learning to me to see what it is to be in GT-O when you try to see what happening behind you. I had my moments in last season.
So this season when I'm lapping I like to give GT-O's to chance to make first move and same time I'm showing what I like to do and if we work to together lapping goes well, as it's been most time - so good work all GT-O's
Have to say though that some GT-O's seems to be more difficult to pass than other (no names).

See you all in Sierra.

 

[Siggers]

Won't 15 laps of sierra make it like a 3 hour long race?

 

[LancerEvo7]

It'd be a little over 2 hours.

 

[Furinkazen]

Sorry about my absence last few days. Mixture of personal things and me being ill has made it pretty much impossible to sort things.

So it'll be a grid start?

Yes.

 

[raceorama123432]

Haven't ran any laps at Sierra since last seasons race and am currently on holiday (get back tomorrow afternoon) If I don't manage to get any in before the race, starting from pole could be pretty sketchy

I'd suggest doing the actual standings first, because, from my records, that's not the order of GT-O standings after Eiger.

But entry lists are more important.

 

[andrew1990]

I won't be at Sierra. Can't stand the track tbh.

 

[RACECAR]

Forgot to update my schedule after the race shifting so here it is updated:

Round 12
Round 13
Round 14
Test/Q1
Q2/Race

So basically beginning at Monza, I'll in for the rest of the season.

So you are not in this week?

 

[RACECAR]

So you are not in this week?

Yeah, I'm not in this week. Basically, the schedule I had at first was going to solely be on the real tracks and avoid all the PD made ones (Because I just hate Eiger and can't really stand Sierra). The revised schedule continues that.

 

[Ninners]

Not planning to race anymore on GT6. I went on it around a week ago and really didn't find myself liking it so I'm pretty sure I'm done with online racing on the PS3.

However for PS4 I'm open from around next year onwards when I might get a wheel for next gen and start playing PCARS more.

Have a nice end to the season.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Anything less than a win this week will be a disappointment.
