**NEW!**:
If you think that you can do better than your first Qualifier session, you are allowed to an immediate re-run. In this case, only your second Qualifier session will count, even if it's slower than the first one.[/INDENT]

Like This one. Great thinking.

[OutlawQuadrnt]

As the defending series champion, let me just say how excited I am to see this series come back one last time, at least for GT5. Of all the ones I've raced in, this one's the most special to me, for I've met many great racers, had many epic races, and had helped me the most into making me the driver I am today.

...and now for the obligatory clips.



Hope for more great racing this time around. 👍

This is one of my favorite moments:

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

One of my personal favorites. Who says you can't attempt a pass at Madrid?

 

[Litchi]

Yea, awesome vids

Glad to see a post from you here Jason. I hope you think the OP is nice and well presented. It's hard to do as well as you

 

[PhaedrusSocrate]

I can't make pre-season but I'll be very happy to be part of championship

Even more if a number of you participants from previous seasons would regularly share your set-ups with rookies

I see some tracks are quite regular in calendar so that would make for even bigger difference...


question: Would anyone ever enjoy racing these cars at SPEC on CS tires:tup: ? Or SH without ABS?

Yea, this car is really fun on comfort softs, no tuning, no abs
Anyway, I will run this series without ABS, like I do for Spec Silvia 👍

 

[PhaedrusSocrate]

Nice, cudos to you

 

[Litchi]

And I don't see you for the pre-season. Can't you race this day?

 

[mjdmzn]

Who's hosting the qualification?

 

[Litchi]

Who's hosting the qualification?

Anybody can host. Just make sure the room number is posted here in the thread to allow people to join. Don't hesitate to post room number even if it's fust for practice 👍. Also, make sure to set the room with mics disabled / unfixed host / and track should be set before opening the room (to avoid tire temp glitch on certain tracks).
As long as there's a PURE Official in the room, you can quali

● Race Stewards

There are now three types of PURE Officials. Click here to view the list. The people listed are given rights to authorize rules and regulations in my absence, should they arise. If I am not around to answer a specific question, or cannot attend a race for personal reasons, drivers should contact any of them for answers.

There, in the first row
Eventual participation this sunday is quite unlikely

 

[Litchi]

Oh yea my bad, lol. I should read more carefully sometimes ahah

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

Hi Litchi. I'm very interested in racing here. Ran in this series Season 2 or 3 (long time ago) and had a lot of fun. I was always 5 seconds per lap slower than everyone, but I hope to only be 2 seconds per lap slower this time!

You know my schedule is very tight, so the question is can I join as a reserve driver? I should be able to make half the races unless my schedule changes. I understand if that is not possible. Can't make Preseason race unfortunately.

 

[Wardez]

Really nice to see you back Osh 👍

Yea, it's definitely possible to sign up as part-time mate
Good to see you

Thanks guys! This is awesome.👍

EDIT: Closed.

1:40.0. This is what I hope for my Q.

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

My car is broken in and ready to go. Quick question...car will need to be detuned to reach 510pp, correct? I think I'm at 515 or 520 with Supercharger and no other changes.

Pay attention to the little blue "*" in OP #2.
* = You are free to set these values as long as you don't exceed the maximum of 510pp. 👍

Thanks Litchi. I did notice the Blue * and want to make sure I didn't do something wrong; that there will be no way to run max power+ max downforce + normal weight. I guess the trick is to find the proper balance between all 3 variables

I think I've spent too much time doing SPEC and need to get my tuning guides out 👍

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

No practice board for Indy Road Course so here are my splits:

26.151 | 23.976 | 19.582 = 1:39.817

Power Level: 93.6%
Weight: +10 kg @ 50
Downforce: 20/40

I'm already scared about the fuel. Goes down way too fast.

 

[SkengD]

Thought you would run less rear wing

 

[Sail IC]

I'm already scared about the fuel. Goes down way too fast.

This will be a matter of opinion. Did a quick test yesterday. After 9 laps the tank was about half full and tires were soon needed to be changed. So maybe in the race we will need about 90 liters of fuel on let say two stops.

This will give plenty of opportunities for different pitstop strategies. There will also be enough time to zip some beer at the pit stop. I like .... a lot.
