IRS GT4 Championship Season 3 - Pro Champ - Timlour, Pro-Am Champ - Clean Racer

Are we recognizing the bop adjustment from the latest game update? Can't find in the rules how that's handled.

Also I will miss this next race. Hopefully I can get back into things for Autopolis.

We will.

Can someone post up what the BoP changes are? Or a link to where I can find them. Thanks.

Thank you.

I guess I have some homework to do to update the listings.

I'll try to have it done by tomorrow am.

Oh no, the Lexus keeps its weight but power goes down by 2% from 99% to 97%. I guess my torque won't be helping me out of turns as much as before?

Yay, less power for me and no change for the Mustang means more wins for Tim.

Random question for the group which has nothing to do with this series.

On a Gr.3 car, would you prefer RS tires at x2 or RM tires at x3? Both become tricky after about 30 minutes, but I'm not sure which is more stable. Slightly worn softs or badly worn mediums, or vice versa.

The numbers are way different. Down 2% but you only loose 3hp. Prolly won’t even notice it. Lol

No love for the Supra. I guess the top 5% are getting much more out of it than I am.

As far as that damn Megannnnn Trophy goes. It already is a beast and yet they give it more power and less weight. Looks like back to 1 make races in sport mode again Lol.


Also the damn Bettle GT3 car needs to be executed. hahaha.

 

[CPT_RowdyGiff]

I’m confused cause a lot of the hp numbers from the list for this series don’t match what it says they used to be before.

I am confused as well. The list posted in the thread in the Spoiler tab is from September 12, 2019.

 

[Whitey093]

The list IS confusing and for our series it makes the Mustang unstoppable. I wasn't advocating for a BOP adjustment when I asked, I actually am against it, I just wanted am official statement and maybe a stated policy for the series going forward regarding official PD BOP adjustments.

My thought would be to lock in the BOP's at the beginning of the season since we work our ballast from there and an adjustment by pd throws things off whack for us.

 

[aceboy127]

I mean we could do BoP ourselves, god forbid. But, I do firsthand know how tough BoP is to take care of. Not saying we shouldn't avoid using GT's BoP, but I think we could make minimal adjustments to work in our favor. I do agree with locking it in for the season though, unless a car is found to be OP, (or in other words driven by Tim or Turbo).

 

[DesertPenguin]

I agree it should be locked for the season but with the good platform to start with that we have we can solidify our own BOP to avoid this situation in the future

I am making the executive decision to stay with the present BoP.

No adjustments will be made for this season.

I will have to re-evaluate for Season 4.

Thanks for your patience.

You going to be on for a while? I might get on later but it won't be until 9pm.

I’ll be on til around 10pm central.
I’ll probably break from practice for a bit and do some daily races or something at some point. Then more practice to end the night.

Ballast Allotments list has been updated for the Suzuka race.

Sorry for being so late, guys.

It's been a crazy week here at home.

 

[Clean Racer]

Who is in for Suzuka? Like the post if you're going to race.

Yuppers. Got another lobby up.

 

[DesertPenguin]

That was good. I've gotta get used to the extra weight now but some fuel saving will help overall.
