NASCAR Truck Series S5 - Spurgy, Pepsi Racing Champions!

[gokartman78]

why has the update changed something?

most likely not, furi may have just realised he has the wrong setup on. or the fact that we have lost about 5% power, or he has the wrong specs

 

[chrisjohnson93]

hopefully it's something that's not serious

na, nothing will have changed mate. The only thing the update did was add the new vette' , adjust the engine noise on a super GT car and changed PP calculations. No physics updates of such, PP changes should not affect times/tyre wear / racing in a one make series

Nothing to worry 'bout

 

[Furinkazen]

Actually there is a change. The Silverado at 750hp spec used to be 558pp, now its only 498.

 

[chrisjohnson93]

so are we keeping 750BHP then or changing?

Change is to PP only. Truck performance not affected, this is not a PP affected series so there's nothing actually impacted. Just saying figures are different.

[TDZdave]

Furi, Due to work its highly unlikely I will make this event,

 

[jammy21]

By the way. How we should do the pitstop? How to do entry? How to exit? Do we use pitlanes in the corners before entry to pit and after exit from pit?

No pit rules but be safe.

 

[Furinkazen]

Yeah just be safe 👍

After looking at the replay of the controversy at Daytona surrounding Spurgy's re-start, I want to confirm, you CANNOT change lanes before you have passed the finish line.

@Spurgy, much as you can complain about it, it's a rule IRL as well, I mentioned it in the room and your very lucky not to have a penalty for this.

 

[Spurgy 777]

It was hardly a controversy, you were the only one complaining but I will try to remember if it makes you happy, it's not so tempting at Motegi anyway

 

[JakobNascar88]

Furi I still not allow to race this weekend?

After listening to others, its reduced to one race Jakob.

Cool!! So I still have a chance to get a championship win. It's a chance I can with no wins.

Also Furi may I be the pace car for this race only?
