Top stuff by Calum. Fast and fair. 👍
Might not make qualifying as well, heck I haven't even turned a single lap at Montegi yet!
 
As I already told you I'll be back next week for Le Mans. Have a nice race today
 
Okay so for tonight:

Race will be in Joes lounge (there seems to be less lag there)

Recently promptness has dropped so can guys please ensure they are in the lobby by 12:00am. We have a reduced grid so don't be surprised if I assume you aren't coming and start the race
 
In order to prevent the Lounge Tyre glitch we WILL NOT be in Joes lounge tonight.

Instead we will be in my lounge
 
Super crabby now, spun 3x and the car was knife-edge without abs.
No practice dosen't help either. Aregh.

Last part of race was super boring, all alone to the point I just switched abs/tc on and cruised home.

Oh and can we not apply success ballast to this event? Since only 6 showed up and 4 finished...
 
To Calum Pepsi and Will, I thought La Sarthe was in 2 weeks not next week lol. Guess ill see you guys next week :P.

Hopefully more than 6 will show next week, and more than 4 finish lol.

Hey Will, you nearly got success ballast lol
 
I ran another race and thought I would make it in time. Shame because motegi is my favorite with these cars.

Yeah I saw. I delayed it at much as I could, but wasn't to be lol.

You would've probably been in no mans land ahead of me and behind Calum lol.

Remember guys, there is NO success ballast for La Sarthe. Back to the standard regs for all of us lol.

Hopefully it's a good finale
 
Thats gonna be a Lexus walk. I was able to get high 52s on mediums and mid 51s on softs. I think it would have been close with the tire wear I was getting. Oh well.
 
I'm going to need a sprint series. I can only go fast for 6-8 laps. Hahaha. I was shocked I hung onto cals draft for 4 laps.
 
Epic failure at the kart track today. Practice was good, and qualy was good, but I had 2 shut downs in both heats and bailed on the main. After racing for the last couple of months I really appreciate sim racing and might sell my whole karting shop by 2015. I rather spend 2 g's on a rig and at the push of a button be in Italy or Japan vs waking up at 5am spending hundreds of dollars, miles on the truck etc, and getting beat up where you cant move for 2 days. It feels good to experience it in real life, but I do more tuning and race strategy playing GT5 then I do at the same couple of kart tracks around here. All I can say is I cant wait for Ps4/GT6 to come out so all I have to do is roll out the bed and jump into my whatever at wherever.

Btw: I'll be at the next 2 huge races at Le Mans & Nurburgring. I gladly welcome the challenge of racing these epic tracks before watching it on TV. 👍

Cool :) I'll be there for Le Mans next week... Time to test some laps with softs (for qualy) medium (for race) and wet!!! :sly:

Just for remember everyone:

Weather- For qualifying a fully dry qualifying to ensure a grid where everyone has had the same conditions ( weather 0 change 0 surface 0)
For the race weather 25 change 10 surface 0.

Time- For qualifying the time 12:00 and progression 0.
For the race time 15:00 and progression 7.

Qualifying will be completed on RS at La Sarthe
The race will be completed only on RM

Question:
for Nordschleife is it better to use the 24h layout or the type V layout to simplify the pit entry and exit?

Thank god for that is canceled out by the negative ballast

karting is a very expensive motorsport. sell your karts by a cheap 80's or 90's car (Japanese or euro) then go and have fun doing autotesting
