Maybe i should hop in the BMW and keep you company

Yes you should.

 

[swiftsmith]

Yeah but it doesn't have a racing livery and I don't think you can fit rear wings to it.

Yes you can put a rear wing on it.

You are aware the road car is a completely different car to the GT1 Race Car right?

Yes I'm aware they are two different things.

 

[RacingLine]

BMW #14 👍

You and #14

 

[RacingLine]

Anyone willing to share some laptimes around here?

 

[RyanRacer]

I'm afraid I'll have to miss today's test as well.

ROUND 00 - TEST II @ SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS

Right okay, so tonight we have the second test before we kick off next week. We will be going to Spa-Francorchamps for a whole evening of testing for all of you guys! 👍

So far, I know that @SK8RBOI is attending. @Pubs16 is a maybe and @RyanRacer is not attending.

Can I please get a clarification on if you are attending or not, please?

@Doomstorm16, @TRL_Andromeda, @RacingLine, @Saevios, @Sinyster, @TNR_KING_FILO, @gtic_ybear, @swiftsmith, @1Lambofan, @zuruzuruz.
​

P.S. I apologise in advance if I have forgotten if you have already clarified whether you're attending or not. 👍

 

[swiftsmith]

I will not be there tonight.

 

[Mikey24]

I will not be there tonight.

Okay thanks. 👍

 

[TRL_Andromeda]

I'll be there, not sure I'll make the entire session tho, depending how long it is.

 

[Saevios]

I was just going around Silverstone with the CLK-LM. Tail happy it is. I think Spa might be better Although quite happy with the changes made to the rear.

 

[Mikey24]

Club lobby is open. 👍

 

[Saevios]

Thanks to all who attended the practice. I learned quite a bit in that session. My first online session in a racing game in quite a long time (6 years or so). I wish GT would fix camber settings, other than that, I think my setup is almost there. looking forward to racing next week. I will be ready

 

[Mikey24]

That was a great test today guys! I apologise as I did not be there as much as originally planned - my mother came to visit and I had to make dinner but was still great to get some laps in, as @Saevios said it's better to get the laps in now and get to know your car and it's boundaries etc. and I'm really pleased with the turnout!

I do have the replay of the race so I can always have a look at that and get some pictures and data etc. to finalise the car specs and everything. But we should be all set to start the season! 👍

Shout out to @SK8RBOI, @TRL_Andromeda, @Saevios, @RacingLine, @TNR_KING_FILO, @RyanRacer and @gtic_ybear for being there today. Thanks guys. 👍

As a reminder we have the 90 Minutes of Silverstone next Saturday at 18:30 GMT (usual time) on the 21 March before we have a two-week break due to GTPES 6 Hours of Silverstone taking place on the 28 March so Round 2 at the Nurburgring has been moved backwards a week to 4 April.

Once again, thank you guys for being here tonight and I apologise for not making much contact with you during the session and I hope you have used the time well because the season is starting! ​

 

[Pubs16]

My apologies for not making the test guys. Had a bigger night out than expected and had to stay at my mate's, so couldn't get onto my sony being 3-4am for me.

On post #2 you will find the newly introduced Tyre Rule. Can you all please have a read and take note of it for future reference throughout the season.

Thanks. 👍​

is the replay still buggy where if it rains some people show up still on dry tyres? still a fan of the 2H races though

I'm not sure, I haven't really had a go at checking that out I'm afraid.

 

[RyanRacer]

How is a 1:50.3 at Silverstone?

That's fast. 👍 What tyres did you set it on? RH or RM?

 

[RyanRacer]

I used RM, but I'm thinking of qualifying and starting on RH's, because to me it seems that at the start of races I always have no rhythm, or racecraft for that matter. I'm thinking of just doing the AI rubber-banding thing at this point.

Well if you want to qualify on RM you'll have to start the race on RM but you can make an early pit stop and then fight your way through while we all pit. 👍

Down to 1:50 flat... Pole should at least be a 1:49.5.

I'm actually running with ABS 0 since it provides a better turn in, but results in greater instability. Quite strangely, the brakes aren't locking up at all. I'm not sure if having ABS off is actually helping or hurting my time.

From my experience, if you dont have an issue with them locking up, then it is better without it.

 

[Saevios]

@TNR_KING_FILO were you using mediums in that small race we had at the end of the test session?

if the fastest lap was around 04 or 05 then yes but my RH fastest lap was 07

 

[Saevios]

Okay, then seems like I'm making progress. My best lap yesterday practising on RH was around 07. Just need to make a few finer tweaks and get my consistency in order
