Le Mans GT 250km (Super GT) // gprilli wins in the rain! // Points Up!

[LancerEvo7]

which will be a rarity for me not to be in the quickest car

Usually the RX-7 is quick at speed tracks when they're all at stock settings.

 

[chrisjohnson93]

i meant top class

 

[Chqr]

nice to have you onboard cj

And welcome

 

[TDZdave]

is thisin a few hours or is it next week?

 

[Chqr]

is thisin a few hours or is it next week?

We're set for tomorrow.

14 drivers signed up. We're good to go.

 

[gippone]

Can I ask something Chqr:

The race will be in your private room or public?
Race quality and mic quality (off)??
La Sarthe 2009 time change progression and weather changeability?
There will be a maximum HP? or just the maxium the cars can brake-in?

Thanks

 

[TDZdave]

ok how many hours until the race, I'm in Australia and I always miss races by 20-40 minutes either side of a race start, I'm fair useless at time conversion

It is 10.43am GMT now which in Sydney time is 21.43am.

Tomorrow's rae is 7.30pm GMT which is 6.30am Syndey time. You'll need to double check this but the GMT time is correct.

Working on these settings yesterday.

I will use a public room (proven to have less lag issues)
Race quality will be set to high.
Mic quality will be set to low.
It is Time Progression and Weather Changeability. I'm going to try and create a 24 hour cycle in the 250km race.
I'm not sure on the number for weather changeability so I'll need suggestions on this one.

Before the race, I will perform last minute checks.

I will then set the max. bhp to 323bhp and call all GT300s to track.

I will then set the max. bhp to 502bhp and call all GT500s to track.

Assuming the grid order is messed up, I will call it out through messaging on the parade lap.

Remember it is full damage and no tuning allowed.

Hope that clears it up.

Well I think a value between 3-4 would be good but when I try something like this everytime starts to rain forever

Someone else has suggestions for weather changeability?

Thanks for all the details Chqr 👍

 

[Furinkazen]

5-7 changeability is my bet.

 

[TDZdave]

the weight limit wont work, there are a lot of cars that are under that weight limit, unless you mean that your going to allow cars in at their spec ratio's, but that's not required if you just lock in tuning prohibited, no one can mess with the weight's then,

set the change to 10, it will always be different then, I think at 100% water on track at a change ratio at 10 it dries at 3% a minute,

and that makes the race in approximately 8hrs10 minutes???

Add 24 hours to that so 32 hours 10 minutes.

I'll see on weather changeability really. I might test some stuff out today. I'm looking around 4-8.

 

[TDZdave]

the only thing I'm not sure is if the weather change goes all the way to 0% if its set at 100%,

cheers for the time, that works great for me,

Ah, I'll check that.

Here's the official clock:

cheers mate, very helpful,

also with the room you can turn mic's off, this also helps with lag,

 

[gippone]

I agree, would be better

 

[Felix]

I'm gutted that I've only just seen this thread :'(

Will you be organising more races like this in the future? I think you have got a really great formula for a very entertaining event and would make one hell of a season.

For future reference , would you allow people to use the GT500 stealth cars?

Thanks , Felix

 

[LancerEvo7]

I don't like the idea of having to use power limiter.

Mics on does help with communicating especially with calling out grid orders and explaining other bits and bobs.

However, yes I will turn mic's off. I think given the size of our grid now, it might be worth doing and considering its a time/weather change track too.

If tomorrow's race proves successful with a large grid, I make make a series out of this. Additionally, if I do make a series, I might make it GT500s only as that is the more popular class, we'll see.

I'm not sure on the Stealth Cars. Of course, your bhp will limited to 502bhp as with the rest of the field but the GTR has 1050kg which is advantageous.

Felix, if you want, I could open up another GT500 team.

You won't have to:

Your max bhp stock is below the threshold anyway

 

[LancerEvo7]

It goes to 352 broken in. The RX-7 and Subaru hit the 330s.

Hmm, if you're unkeen on using that car in the GT300, I could offer you a GT500 team with Felix or a transfer to Subaru or Lexus in the GT300s.

 

[TDZdave]

also I'm finding the YMS supra is stuck at 483BHP with a top speed of 307KPH, I've done 12 laps of route X andabout 5 in le mans, with damage on heavy, and tire and fuel on, either this car is maxxed or its not breaking in,

I'm not sure on breaking in bhp requirements but you can try the Tom's Castrol JGTC if you like too.

 

[Akmuq]

Like 25% weather(which is still sunny most of the time) no surface water and weather changeability at 7 usually is a good combination, I think it will start after about 45 minutes with those settings, but can't make a guarantee.

I think that's what neljack used for the GTP 1-2Hr Endurance Series and that worked well so done.

Are you going to have a test room tonight?
