Well welcome back. Now all we need is @Nicktune back

 

[Jakedog23]

Still need a car selection from these people.

You guys will not be able to race this Friday as you didn't meet the deadline for car selection so you will have to wait until next week to race.

Race room is open.

I cannot believe that incredible race pace from the front runners! wow 2-3 secs a lap faster than my pace!
looks like my 2 weeks of practice just went and flushed itself down the drain!

p.s. what happened to "...oh about 27-28 laps with two pit stops give or take.."

 

[CAMikaze]

For the revamped racing format, I'd say it went off pretty much without a hitch. Though seeing @euclid58 coming online 3 laps into the race had me a bit worried we'd have to do a restart if he entered the lobby.

I was able to get to the mid-41's by time the race ended, so I'm pretty much getting used to the car and quite possibly getting my racecraft back up to speed.

Good thing I broke out the calculator before Qualifying because I thought this was going to be a 29-30 lap race. When I pitted for the 2nd time, I saw the fuel gauge was just over 7 liters remaining so I refueled for the remaining high estimated distance + 1 lap to play it safe.

 

[Scorpion0001]

I ran the race myself 10 times! 5 on a two stop strategy and 5 on a one stop strategy. ALL TEN races I finished at 28 laps!!!💡

I am still in shock of the race pace you guys seem to have in race cars.

I'm just glad that track is out of the way. Not one of my favorites.

And what if you had won?

Methinks @Chris Kelley may have a rival for the title this season.

I did a dirt race last night which I greatly enjoy doing..Looks like I need to practice more on dirt though..
Nothing but tarmac, tarmac, tarmac for over 12 months since the last time I even drove on gravel..
Just not a lot going on with rallying right now.. Think I will try to organize something like that after I work out the details for the three race oval classics.. 1st race for the 2015 Oval Classic will be Memorial weekend.. Probably on Memorial Day which is on a Monday, but still TBD.. Could also be either Saturday or Sunday of that weekend.

Really wish I could have been there because that is one of my better tracks..
And then Red Bull Ring not so much...

Smh I told you guys to not try to stretch it. I

 

[Scorpion0001]

"Smh I told you guys to not try to stretch it. "
Well If I had an extra 5 sec per lap to spare to keep up the pace you all are running I would try it. Oh well guess I will just have to find a slower league to run in... or maybe just play BF4!

 

[Chris Kelley]

Nah you will be fine. Ill try to help you with that GT-R some this week.

So how many race wins in class does this make for me? I know I have at least 2 and both at Twin Ring Motegi Road Course.

 

[Chris Kelley]

Anyone else doing GT ACADEMY this season ? Spent a little time with it last night. 2:08.60`s so far. I think with a little work I can shave off a second or so. 4wd is just not my cup of tea. Maybey a better car for next round huh? lol

 

[euclid58]

@LVracerGT was in the top 100 on the leaderboard last night..

2:09. something for me and doubt if I could shave much more with a DFGT.
I would need to lower rotation, and still might not matter..
Can you imagine doing that with a standard GT-R weight, and not the lighter Nismo..
Not me..
