GTP NASCAR Sprint Cup S4 Champs: Akmuq, Hendrick, Chevrolet

[Acorner123]

2-class race:

Class A:
Litchi
Niop
Joe
MULE

Class B:
Everyone else

Seems accurate right?

i didnt know mule was good at turning

 

[MustangRyan]

I have never, ever heard of this being possible in the past, just so you know...

It took a while, but I found it.

[Akmuq]

Yeah, if anyone thought I might have a chance at a podium, wait till you see what Spurgy does.

 

[RedPartyhat]

What does that means?

It's a joke but what I'm saying is that you four drivers will easily take the top 4 spots. And then then there will be a big race for 5th place
Almost like a 2 class race.

Unless someone wants to step-up of course.... o.O

But to be honest I try my absolute best and there is no way I can compete with the top drivers. I just guess it's the disadvantage of the DS3.

Litchi, Spurgy, AC, RFLX, Joe and MULE will probably sweep the top 6. Everyone else will be scrapping over 7th.

EDIT: Just realised I can't afford things like the catastrophe at SSRX last week due to the fact we've got a league full of ringers and 3 pre-chase road races. Oh dear.

I'm à DS3 driver aswell...

I don't find any reason why a DS3 would be at a disadvantage.

Worse tyre wear and you can't be as smooth, doesn't mean you can't still be fast though.

 

[Spurgy 777]

Because steering wheels are just faster for some reason. Blame PD

I'll blame you instead.

Well there is no way I'm running a 1.39.9 with a DS3 on a default setup.
Best I could do is 1.41.2 on default setup.

 

[Müle]

Make sure you're taking note of the different track boundaries were using in these leagues

Drop, you might need to dig up the pictures you made last season.

 

[Litchi]

I given a short test yesterday night with Michouw, we both tried with stock, I hit a 39.9 as my 1st lap and he done a 39.6. 👍

 

[Spurgy 777]

Different track boundaries? I hope that still means 2 wheels on track, not 4 Btw did some practice for SC after my NW practice and did a 1.39.3 with my own setup, not default.

 

[Müle]

2 wheels on track, but curbs are not track.

 

[Chqr]

2 wheels on track, but curbs are not track.

I like this rule. 👍

 

[cgr-10]

You mean those beautiful MS Paint masterpieces Drop put together whilst at work? They'll be somewhere near the start of the S3 thread I suspect.

 

[MustangRyan]

The rules are stated in the OP, but I will probably create a video and put it on youtube, so there is no uncertainty at all in our policies regarding legal track boundaries and shortcutting.

No, I'll be creating the video from scratch.

If you've got a spare couple of hours on a Sunday (around 11 EDT and 4pm BST onwards) it would be awesome if some of you could join us for the new Grand Am Series that Frasier and I are running; The Rolex International Sports Car Championship. Multi class racing, race lengths from 90-144 minutes all with PURE statistics infrastructre whilst still being in part a GTP America series. Should be a lot of fun. We've got a preseason this weekend and the 2.4 hours of Daytona next week as the season starts proper. Thanks to Drop for the plug 👍

PURE | RISC

 

[Carbonox]

I specifically like the rule that going off in corner exits isn't cutting.

 

[RedPartyhat]

Yeah, in real life they got extremely wide coming out of corners.

 

[Müle]

If I were to organize a spot race for this Saturday during the Sprint Cup timeslot, how many of you guys would join?

Sprint Cup specs at La Sarthe 09, maybe go up to 550 or 600 hp is what I'm thinking.

 

[Knelly]

Would personally prefer an oval but I'm down. Preferably a slightly later time slot?

We could always do a few shorter races, I might be in 👍

 

[Knelly]

Or what about Spa as F1 are there this weekend?

Whatever Mule decides is cool. 👍

 

[cgr-10]

Spa or La Sarthe sounds fun.
