-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SIGNUPS are now permanent, once you sign up you are good to go for the rest of the 8 week season.

- At the end of the race just write down your finishing position compared to the other GTP members. If you finish up front use the extra time to write down the finishing position of the others to ensure everything is recorded in case they don't see the results.

Nice. Yet another car I have never driven or bought before.
 
Geez. The front end is a nightmare. Racing line is extremly important here..1 MPH = .200th at the end of the straight!

I don't want brag, but I would like to know where my competition is at?

I think a 1'56.7-900 is possible with the correct tunning and lines.

I did consistant 1'58.1-3 ... I know a 1'57.5 is possible with my crap tune.

My best so after a few laps is a 1.57.237 on R2's. As you said, a 56 is definately possible with some more practice and a better tune though.

This car is SO frickin boring though. No torque, handles like turd, too slow around Daytona to be any fun, etc, etc. It definately doesn't belong at a high speed course like Daytona IMO. I really don't know if I'll even bother racing this Wednesday to be honest...

I would have really liked to see a different car being used for this event, and force people to run on N3's (maybe S1's) to make thinks more entertaining when using a AWD car at such a low PP level :crazy:. This car is a joke...even at max power and minimum weight you are forced to run at least a R series tire to even make it to 600PP. That's a recipe for boredom around Daytona :lol: I wonder...is it too late to change the car we're using for this event??
 
Wow. Interesting combo. The races will be quite funny here. I'm already dreading Turn 1.

Will try some laps later on.

EDIT: Please, no events with N tires. Please.
 
:lol: Please no events with the Lanica (especially at Daytona). Please.

Edit: I just tried the Sti with S2's. It was SO much more fun, especially being able to throw the tail out through the infield.. I know the Lancia is a car most of us don't get much seat time in, but to me, after about 3 laps the car already felt old and boring. Basically I just felt like putting it away and taking out a car that actually put a smile on my face :lol:

timeattack, usually I let the drivers pick which car we use each round, but special circumstances have stopped me so far

The drivers will be able to choose which car they want for Round #5 and beyond. The poll will be in the round 4 thread. It will feature 2-3 available cars from each expert event. As always you will have multiple votes and the results will be public, because only signed up driver's votes count.

- I was going to have the different Cups run different cars at different tracks, but the drivers seem to like running practice races before the event so I decided to keep everyone in the same boat

- The Sports Cup needs a minimum of 4 signups before it can be opened. The series must run a minimum of 4 rounds in order for there to be a legit champion.

- I'm thinking about the formula for how many drivers should move up to OrangeR Cup at the end of the season and how many should move down to Clubman Cup. Right now I'm thinking the bottom and top 3, but I may just make it a poll.
 
Ran 10 laps, with a best of 1:59.038, and this is without a tune, only R2's and 331 HP. Also, decided to use the Manual Transmission since the AT sucks a lot (can't maximize the "torque" effect).

However, I am having problems in the midfield, where - I think - I can shave another second, at the very least. Can't put in a flawless lap.

Last chicane is the most important by far, a difference of 5 MPH can literally translate into a 0.5+ second at the end of the lap.

I'd love to know how you set your gears for this one? Also, what about the springs?

Please excuse me for kibitzing (I'm not competing in this series, yet :), but here's a tune I've been able to wring a 1'57.076 out of, at 600pp, in hot lapping. Be aware that this is a TwistyTune(tm) lol as I'm still a firm believer that there is a bug such that the front and rear spring rates are reversed (eg. stiffening the front causes more oversteer and vice versa). This thing isn't very resonsive to tuning, so play away.

Did I get points for the first race (I was 30 seconds late and was by myself on the race track)?

Yes, both you and CWR. The rule from season 1 is that you get 3 consolation points if you attempt to connect to a race but end up by yourself.
 
Okay. Thanks, Earth.

Then - I don't want to be picky, especially not for a point but... - I should have 43, instead of 42 points (1st, 2nd, 5th + 3 points = 25 points + 18 (last round) = 43). Every point counts ;)
 
Thanks for noticing my friend :lol:

Gotta love that movie...a classic

yessir, one of the best.

i reckon what ye got fer sale in there? you got any biscuits?
