I'm gonna change the tires to either sport softs or racing softs (although according to this it doesn't seem to matter which you pick, sameperformancewear rate) after we do some testing. For the practice race we're still running racing hards as planned.
The D500 will be over by 5:00PM EST at the latest. Our race starts on the same day but at 8:00PM EST so you'll all have 3 hours of recovery time to get ready for the first race.
Plenty of time. Thanks for the concern.
hard tires actually last less than soft tires.
Both are just linear multiplier to the car's grip and were hard-coded to last the exact same time, on hard tires however you're constantly slipping and sliding left and right so the tire wear occurs at a faster pace.
Please tell me you are not really considering sport tires, please!
Gotcha 👍 Hope it's a good race for you.This reminds me. I won't be able to compete in the race on the 27th as I will be attending the NASCAR race here in Phoenix. 👍
Could we just stay with racing hard tires ? Because the setup was made for this type of grip. If you you change for soft tires, it will remove sort of the challenge we have when driving the car but if you put sport tires, I tell you everyone will constantly spin... Anyway the series is "yours" now but IMHO it would be better with racing hard tires.
I firmly disbelieve this. They wear faster because you are overdriving (due to being used to higher levels of grip with RS tires). You can make RH last quite a bit longer if you drive smooth and pace yourself.
Isn't the first qualifier for the practice race supposed to be now?
Please count me in.
GTP Name : RedReevos
PSN Name : RedReevos
Car Colors (body/wheels) : Electric Orange/White
Car Number : 17
Same boat as quite a few of you... Will probably miss whatever week coincides with GT Academy.
Thanks!
how will be the qualify system??
Agreeing with this ;]I vote we ditch the original plan (Nurb GP/F) and run Monza. 👍
For the qualifiers, I have an idea. Here's what I think : Only one guy goes on the track at the time in a 4 lap race (so 3 qualifying laps) while everyone watches him. That way we see the lap times and also if the lap is clean! To be sure that the lap is not forgotten, we could note all 3 laps and erase dirty ones.
Tell me what you think.
