Kermit's Super Formula Street Circuit Cup - Finished

[GOTMAXPOWER]

I will be racing Saturday but I have a problem, I have never learned to make liveries. I can steal one from the discover section but it likely won't have the correct decals. If anyone could help it would be much appreciated, I will run any allowed livery. If I had a choice I would take the Mild 7 Renault from the Alonso championship years.

If you're really desperate the 2020 Super Formula liveries should fit all of the rules (you might need to swap number), I think the full grid are near the top if you go on discover > cool selections in the game, the 2019 ones are there too if you scroll further.

If you want to join the Skoda team I can put your number on the one I made but it's a bit rubbish 👍.

Thanks for that lap, I was feeling pretty good cause I ran some 1:29's, oh well, someone needs bring up the rear.

I think 29s is second quickest of people who have posted so far but @Kermit_2142 is usually sandbagging. I'll lose some time once I run with grip on real and fuel turned on and then some more if I stay on the road.

Good shout that Max, I didn’t know you can swap numbers on liveries???

As far as I know you can't (even with the generic GT Sport ones), I meant find one you like then change your entry on here.

 

[Kermit_2142]

I realised what you meant just after I pressed send

But yh that’s fine go for it @fastone371 if you can find one just switch numbers 👍

Also I never sandbag

 

[Adam Barber]

@fastone371 Yup I've got loads of SF19 liveries that I can swap the numbers over and adapt for you.

I was really hoping that lap was in TT mode! Fewf!!

Still got me by 4s in TT mode though.

 

[Timm Sheehan]

So it doesn’t take a multiple car accident to call safety? Kinda sucks that two guys/a guy in the back can blow a big lead for the front guy.

hmmmmmm

That last lap

I just tried it with fuel you can really feel the weight, full tank was about 5 seconds slow than time trial.

Don't let Pigems fool you, I had a lobby open a couple,weeks ago, ran a 1:31 or 1:32 in race trim, Pigems joined the lobby and was within 4/10ths at the most, but probably less after only a few laps.

I will hit you up if you dont mind, I only get to log in on weekends and I usually use that time to practice. Thank you very much. I could run a monotone car but there are so many cool liverys out there.

When is the next practice session?

Just have a look through my gallery on GTPlanet: HERE and let me know which one you fancy!

#### Free practice 2 ####
​

Official Free Practice 2 will be Thursday 23:00/18:00 as usual. Session will last 60minutes.

I tried it in custom race last night, low/mid 32s seem like a good lap at the start of a race run, the fuel weight makes all the difference though, you can feel it getting better every lap, I guess starting at half fuel would be worth almost 2 seconds.

Then there is the party button...

 

[RacingGrandpa]

I can tell I'll be back marker. My times are around 36-34 in FP....

 

[Kermit_2142]

Fuel will be set as low as I can + a bit of safety margin. I was burning 5% per lap on Saturday, will confirm it again on Thursday.

Race 1 is only max 15mins and reverse grid so there is opportunity for a podium there 👍

Race 2 anything can happen with a crash up front.

 

[Adam Barber]

Done a few laps with fuel and tyre wear on and I'd almost forgotten how much I love driving this car with all its lovely downforce. Can't wait for the race and I really need to get more practice in to set some properly representative lap times.

Oh I wouldnt say that, there are always shall we say "circumstances". More than once I have discovered an alien behind me during endurance races assuming I was about to be lapped only to discover we were racing for position.

My bad, I may have missed an alert/tag before your post. I'll be there and looking forward to it.

Is there someone that has a livery I could kindly borrow with #10 added? I'm fine with any.

I can change number on one of mine.
Edit:Honda or Toyota?

I've got more than enough to provide everyone with a different livery, sure I can do something for you.

 

[Jason885]

Just got off work, I can make it for Saturday if my spot hasn't been given away.

 

[Kermit_2142]

A great practice session last night. I really felt like I was getting into the grove by the end of it. I pretty much did a 40min race run, which is enough for me in these cars, they're really tiring to drive. Pace from everyone is looking really good and with still plenty of mistakes being made its going to be an exciting race for sure. Tyre wear is barely noticeable so I plan not to pit under safety car (unless damaged), as I think track position will be more important given the high speed nature of the circuit. Fuel usage is the biggest win for this car, we estimate a 5+ second a lap difference from full to empty so expect fastest laps to be set throughout the race. (fuel will be set as low as I can for the race distance).

Practice lap times : Fastest 2:28 - 2:30 / Midfield 2:31-2:34 / Tail end 2:34-2:38 (times all in "ish" time)

I'm getting super hyped now, can not wait!!!

There will be a #### Race Day Notification #### tomorrow with just with a few reminders and more details with regards to grid order, lap counts etc but nothing that isn't already in the OP.

See you all Saturday

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

I tried a fresh set of tyres at the end on low fuel, they are worth about a second over 20 lap old ones so there is some benefit but not enough to beat the dirty air (if you have a free pitstop behind it's worth taking). The qualifying race is going to be fast with only 15 minutes of fuel and the party button.

I'm really looking forward to this series.

How much OT Button do we get in race?
