As for tire wear, I think dialing down to Fast should be enough.

What I took away from Motegi was that "push for the first two laps and try to conserve til the end of the stint" was the best way to make it to the end and still have some decent pace.

What's the horsepower deficit intervals atm? But yeah, just expanding it down to 8th should be fine.

5BHP. I think bumping it to 6 if we expand to top 8 should work?

I agree, it was a bit frustrating not being able to race. We do want some tyre wear for strategy, but like F1, running at 7% all the time is crap. The pit stops were the worse. There was 3 seconds to gain with a new set. I do want the cut back to work, but it should only help you gain track position over others, not giving you a massive lead. Fast seems a good idea to me 👍

So the driver finishing 1st will have even more of a penalty? Why not keep intervals of 5hp? Or am I missing something lol?

They would, but so would everyone else which would cancel it out, if that makes sense?

Maybe we should just leave as is, it wasn't too bad lol

I'd say leave it as it is. Now that I think of it, the pens looked like they weren't slowing the top 5 enough only because there was just chaos during the start of race 3. Most of the cars at the upper half of the grid at the start of that race pinballed off track on the first lap, allowing the ballast affected drivers to make ground quickly.

After GTTCC, @Antares26 will be hosting a series. I encourage people to have a look and if they're still around to come have some fun

Turbo poll closes tonight at 21:00BST, scores are currently 3-3 👍

 

[True-blue-8]

Turbos have been banned

Any rulings on tire wear rate yet?

 

[Ash9414]

The end result was 5-5, wasn't it? So surely that gives either a null result or a revote?

From the feedback given I think we'll be running fast 👍

2 votes for turbos were from people who are not and have no intention of racing. Same as in the past I never count them as it's not fair how the people competing have to follow what someone else who has nothing to do with the series wants

 

[Ash9414]

That sounds fair enough! No turbos it is then.

Hey hey people! @BenMillard mentioned that you might need some more cannon fodder, so I thought I'd drop by, say hello and see if I could join up.

GTP ID / PSN ID / Team name / Car #
Baron Blitz Red / BaronBlitzRed / Privateer / #66

Cheers

Hey mate welcome to the mad hatter's tea party

 

[NoirAntares]

What's a good lap time around Laguna Seca without the turbo? I'm clocking 1'32s while testing some setups earlier and I'm not sure if I'm making some progress.

I remember a few months ago that was a good lap. Not sure what time I'll be back from uni but I'll try get some laps in

Do I get extra points for being the next post?

@ABP samdigboy @Baron Blitz Red


Apologies all, my laptop froze and decided to post reply

Round 2 tomorrow. Again, full time or not, if you can't make it please let me know.

Can people please be aware of the following;

-Tyre wear is now fast
-Turbos are banned
- We will have a manual grid for race 1. Please be aware of your starting positions and pens if needed. When I call red flag everyone will need to leave track. I will then ask everyone to enter the pits. When I call your name out please drive out and park at turn 1 in that order.
- Pit entry - please do not go flying in here. Practice if needed, but be careful.


That is everything I believe. Let's hope we have another great round

Do I get extra points for being the next post?

no

 

[TNR_KING_FILO]

do Event 1 Race 3 pens carry on to Event 2 Race 1?

No, it's top 5 in the championship that use them, info on post 3 👍

Race Day!

 

[SK8RBOI]

Race Day!

Can't race tonight. Camping this weekend. XD

 

[True-blue-8]

I am so looking forward to tonight. This essay ha been driving me absolutely mental

I'm looking on target to actually get some laps in early so I'm trying not to panic

 

[BenMillard]

Unofficial test room is up as a public club lobby.

My first laps around Laguna for a long time in any vehicle.

 

[True-blue-8]

Lobby up!

If people wish to switch to indy or form a team, please let me know by midnight tonight. Points will then be re-altered for last week so you don't miss out 👍

 

[Ash9414]

I don't see the lobby?

 

[True-blue-8]

I don't see the lobby?

Doom just pointed it out I opened it in @Furinkazen club

I'm such an idiot, opening a new one now 👍

 

[True-blue-8]

I did wonder why Ben's lobby wasn't showing up
