Nice! How was the weather in your time slot?

Lots of rain thru the night. Came in 2 rounds. Second round it rained for an hour before it was actually wet to the point to need rain tires. We were in the 3rd timeslot.

We had 5 drivers on the team. We were operating on double stints anytime someone got in the car with 1 triple stints by 3 of us to fill out the schedule. I also jumped in the car to sub for one of our drivers who wasn’t confident in their wet weather driving. Total I did 3 double stints and a triple for a total of 255 laps. I did by quite a margin the most laps out of anyone on the team, we had 2 guys who did less than half of that.
Now last year we ran with 3 drivers, and every time someone got in the car, they did a triple stints.
Edit: Also should note, at all times, we had at minimum, 1 driver acting as a spotter to relay information to the driver like rival lap times and weather conditions. Also they were prepared and ready to jump in the car at any moment in the event the current driver had an equipment failure or disconnect.
We actually had one guy jump in, do one lap and then pit after his force feedback didn’t kick in. So the driver who was scheduled to run next, and had just started spotting took over.

Could only manage 7th in the 2nd split of the final time slot on my end. LMP2 side swiped us as we came out of the pit lane with just 25 minutes to go. We were running 4th at the time but I suppose it wasn't meant to be after a wild ride throughout the 24 that had us running near last in GT3 after hour 2.
