I was running 2:15s in practice, so I'm a little disappointed in my qualifying run. Still, at least I wasn't last, and that's good enough for me.

We ran a mock 12 lap race last night and there were some questionable passes late in the race. I thought I should post some pics and see peoples opinion....
All in all it was a nice clean race. Warning, Do not attempt these passes in the Support Races or Official Enduro on Sunday.
Never again!That's what you get for hanging around waiting in the lounge for hours for the last qualifier when one of the stewards (not to be named) is imbibing the entire time.
The amazing thing is, there really was no contact on the LMP on LMP pass. It was timed perfectly.
Just to be clear.
I'm not able to make any of the support races.
I've not signed up for any of them, but just in case I was expected to turn up.
It's never a bad thing to make things 110% crystal clear. 👍
See you guys Sunday! 👍
Biffy: I was about to try your gear settings..
I'm fine up to 3rd.. Then the numbers are out of reach for me..
I can't reach i.e 2235 on 4th..
What am I doing wrong?

Pretty sure I didn't change the wheels, either way though I wouldn't know how to fix it, that was Pekka's gearing
I can't believe a steward would be so careless so close to the deadline.
Personally, I was into my 3rd New Belgium Ranger IPA of the night when I smacked Scott silly.

If you paint them they become custom and the gear ratios won't match up with a car with unpainted wheels. Another PD quirk.You cant change the wheels on the Vette iirc .
WRP001Well, you are running LMP anyway right.
I hope you can make one of the support races and/or at least some practice runs in the lounge today/tonight. I don't believe I've been on track with you at all and I don't know if you've had any chance to practice running the LMP with GT cars on track. It's quite fun, but challenging and good to know where you can be surprised.
Eau Rouge is going to be really tough if you catch up to a GT car at the wrong spot... especially during those times in the race where they are getting on older tires and it might be harder to maintain the perfect line.

Aren't there some decent Local IPA's you could come up with?
mcfizzleAre you sure it was only 3 because it wasn't me that you hit. I made it through the whole thing without any projectiles coming into contact with my 908.
Thanks for letting us know. 👍 We should have known that. We'll discuss whether it should move back an hour.hasslemoffBritish summer time
Just a query regarding the start time on sunday night, british summer time begins this weekend in the Uk which means that the clocks go forward 1hr, which also means that the GMT start time will be 1hr later (9pm).
I just done the time convertor and see that if the race began at 8pm GMT that it would be 3pm EST start time.
If the race started at the original EST time of 4pm that would make it 9pm GMT time. Its just to make people aware espicially the People in the UK.
