GT3 class would not be banned,the whole guilt will be thrown to the driver and car manufacturer(wrong downforce)
GT Academy future does not look bright.

Again, you guys will not really understand, what he's saying, but JP is a driver (maybe @Christhedude will know him) in the VLN and 24h as well and he also has very good understanding on how a car works (has it's own tuning shop)

And he thinks that it might have been caused by a wrong setup of either the tyre pressure and/or damper pressure. Usually the car slams to the ground completely right before Flugplatz, and he thinks that maybe Nissan tried to counter that, which then caused a too heavy rebound causing the car to already have it's front wheels in the air, which would explain why the car was already in the air before even hitting the jump. The jump, or rather the fact that then the road "disappears" under the car, caused the car to be completely in the air.

Then he also went ahead to explain, why the car flipped, which he demostrated with the mouse. Just watch the first 5 minutes.

I hope that my very rough translation could help a little bit, maybe some germans who speak a little bit better english can translate it better.

@super_gt please just wait until we know the answers to questions before making yourself look like a fool.

Which is exactly what I suspect myself.

Apart from the fact (not for the first time either) you are again contributing totally worthless, pointless drivel to a discussion, i'll remind you of one thing - the Le Mans disaster did actually lead to a car class being banned. All of them actually, banned in Switzerland in a nationwide motorsports ban that is only being lifted this year with Formula E.

Wait what about the hill climbs the past few years? Or is it a circuit racing ban? Technicalities...

I attended the British GT Media Day last Wednesday and - aside from interviewing Tom Onslow-Cole, Mat Jackson and Shaun Hollamby - saw it as a great opportunity to take some photographs. Here are a few of my favourites:

I am off to round 1 on Monday; hopefully I'll have some photos, maybe a few videos to share.

Yup, circuit racing was banned, public roads, pfff no issue.

That occurred to me, probably an enclosed circuit racing ban.

They hand out free ice cream in the paddock.

Another reason for me to move to Britain.

Will you be at Oulton this weekend?

Gran Turismo 6

Downforce front 150 rear 900

Downforce front 350 rear 500

Point: None

GT6 isn't real life.

 

[catamount39]

Though I still find that experiment interesting. 👍

 

[Bo]

It's flipping obvious.

You do know that they used gt6 to sort out the front downforce on the GT3....

 

[Tired Tyres]

As in Kaz got air on the real track and then tested the setting in GT and found it did the same thing?

Sort of as in they knew it lifted so used gran turismo to find a setting that would stop it lifting.

Oh dear.....

At least use the Thumbnail option (ask for instructions if you don't know how), then at least you waste a little less space.

Good on you for using something with an accurate ballistic physics engine. Or is it GT6?

I thought your despicable attitude and blatant trolling was limited solely to the GT6 forums, but I suppose not.

Sadly not, I've got working commitments to fulfil. Next weekend I'm at Silverstone for the World Endurance Championship however.

Interesting write-up. And he adds that Taki Inoue is, to quote, "an asshole". He's right on every count, I think.
