GTP Le Man Prototype Night Series - Series cancelled

[AllinWitJT]

I won't be able to make the next race either. "Got to eat dinner". Ha. As it is 2 out of 5 not raced just drop me and give my spot to another. See you next season I hope.

 

[freshseth83]

Yeah, i used the cpu suggestions (1-2) per stop... But at the end it suggested 1 L so decided to put 10 in to be safe, lol

Braking distance was weird. Sometimes i thought i broke to late and was actually way early for the turn. Brake a touch later and was way too late, lol.

The same thing happened to me, so I'd brake early and coast through turn 1. Took some time off fast laps, but kept it consistent.

 

[OwensRacing]

I always put 8-10 liter in when I stop. It doesn't take any of your time and ensures you won't sit on a stop waiting for large load of fuel. As well always put more in then GT5 suggests. The Crew Chief they gave is not very good.

 

[freshseth83]

Yeah, I usually go at least 5 liters unless it's the first two stops. I never put fuel in the first stop. The tires won't last that long anyway, and with the race distances we run in this series, one slight refuel is enough.

 

[harvickfan]

I will probably be making my first Laps at nurb tomorrow when the room opens. Lol. Just warning everyone I'm gonna be rusty

 

[pipi_r6]

Lol, i don't no if i can make tomorrow, Valentine's Day

 

[PAWEL17]

Urgh, my car is going to absolutely suck at the Nurburg.

 

[freshseth83]

I'm not so hot here with the Toyota. The Bentley is better at these tracks in my hands. I think I can get 45's at best. 46's will be my good laps and 47's maybe during the races.

 

[bermudakid]

i havent even done any laps @ the track yet
Todays race is 25 + 1 @ nurb....


wait what?? today is Valentines day, hmmm - That special lady in my life is currently my car, but will most of you be out / unable to play GT5 ? I really didnt think that through - sorry.

 

[mike46and2]

Im racing,the race is only an hour or so. MY GF will have to wait lol.

 

[mike46and2]

Maybe an hour and a half for me, I haven't drove a LPM for months.

 

[harvickfan]

I'm not sure if ill be there or not BK.

u will be there.

Damn....the best i can conjure up in my 905 is a 1:49.....and the tyre wear is incredible, 5 laps at most with soft/mediums. I just can't configure my car for this track.

 

[freshseth83]

I think a power drop is needed. Running at 600hp would be great, it'd save tires and probably be easier to keep it somewhat consistent. But I'm just speaking my opinion.

 

[bermudakid]

Ill be a little behind tonight. Room will open at 615 eastern.

 

[freshseth83]

I'm going to get on- but might not stay, depends on how many show up- maybe we could put it off if there isn't many there.

thats what im thinking? nobody is showing up.............

 

[PAWEL17]

This next update has to fix this damn multiplayer, because i have gone out and bought a new modem, plus 8x faster internet, and this still happens, i'm even in DMZ mode and it's still happening.
Yet, last week everything was fine?
I'm really dissapointed.

 

[OwensRacing]

Sorry for bailing. Had company stop by. Tried to get through it. Dog started barking. Yea LMP's and a loud dog don't mix. Needless to say Not very pleased. Prefer people call before stopping.

Anyway. See you guys next week.

 

[bermudakid]

disappointed..

 

[tissimo]

****, I was thinking it was on Wednesday, my bad.

 

[RedPartyhat]

I raced pretty good but still did bad <.<

 

[freshseth83]

The tire wear is miserable. The Toyota could only get 6 laps with softs. The tires fall off so fast you can't take corners with consistency, it's all a guessing game. One lap is different from the next and so on. I could have been closer to 1st, but I just pit once more to have fresh tires to solidify 2nd place. When I was ahead of BK after the 2nd round of stops, the braking went wild and I overshot turn 1. Just that little off ruined my tires. I never was able to get close to 1st again. The race was a wash really.

 

[bermudakid]

after fresh outbraked himself i didnt see another car all race..... no lapped drivers, backmarkers , nothing. Most quite the race, which makes me sad. It looked like most of you guys ran together from what i saw on my map.

I need to update the points and ill post a link to spreadsheet.

I wonder if the all quit or if they lost there connection, we lost so many, more than half probably, My pedals came unplugged on lap 23 which sucked, at that point I was pissed that everyone I had passed was gone. Wierd race.

 

[AllinWitJT]

You can tell if they quit or dropped by whether or not their exit signature was present.

Unless they just turn off the ps3...

 

[OwensRacing]

Unless they just turn off the ps3...

Or pull the power on the router/modem.

You know who gets DC'd they come back in the room and express their unhappiness. Rage quitting and trying to disguise it as a DC. They don't reenter the room.

LoL
