Do you think the CIA's looking into my stuff? 
Just came back from doing that, I'm off to bed, hope to see you tomorrow 👍Oh crap...I haven't run a single lap on this week's track with the Camaro GT3 - specifically to practice entering the pits. UGH! That's all I need is to be DQ'ed for violating pit procedure. Well, I better head over to the practice facility. If anyone is bored and wants to join me. I don't plan on driving too long. Just enough to go in and out of the pits a couple of times so I don't break any rules tomorrow morning.

Sorry ALB no can do. I had a little go earlier too, quite hard to see those lines at speed with my eyesightJust came back from doing that, I'm off to bed, hope to see you tomorrow 👍
That photo is awesome!Sorry ALB no can do. I had a little go earlier too, quite hard to see those lines at speed with my eyesight
I'm off to bed now too. Hope to see you guys tomorrow/later
I know it's late to say this, but if the race length is 30 minutes, Sports:Soft may not be the "best" way to go for every run.
2. Yes, but you'll wish to run like hell there.
Stay Tuned! Recheck the OP and the Event post just in case.

Pit stradegy can be very important. Almost as important as finding the pits themselves!
Best of luck today guys, have fun and I'm looking forward to the results.
I wish I had that first race saved. I honestly am completely baffled as to how I lost my 10 second lead on the very first pit stop. How does the leader go into the pits with a 10 second lead, and then come out with a 1 second lead when every other driver pitted on the same lap? We all got fuel and rubber... Is there anything I might have done that delayed my pit stop departure? When the sign is up that says "Keep foot on brake", do you have to actually keep your foot on the brake or risk your pit crew not changing the tires as quickly as possible? I will say that you couldn't be more correct Lionheart2113... Pit Strategy is incredibly important.
It is difficult to make your car wide without zig zagging, but that depends on opinion of what zig zagging is, since they will vary. Taking the best lines and make them earn it is the cleanest way to block IMO. They might have to give you a nudge to get by, especially since GT6 doesn't have the physics to get someone loose by creeping up to your their inside quarter panel, or by passing them on the outside and taking the air off of their car.What do you mean by this, danbojte? Are you implying some details of today's events might change?
Ugh...Tell me about it, @Lionheart2113! I am still fuming over my loss at Monza last weekend.
But even besides that horrible loss of ~9 seconds of my lead...all I had to do was pit on the same lap as danbojte for our final pit stop and I probably could have prevented him from taking the lead from me. I would never do something dirty like zig zag back and forth to prevent a pass, but even following the "one move allowed" rule of sportsmanship, Monza is an incredibly difficult circuit to pass on if the car in front is not making any critical mistakes. At least, Monza feels more difficult to pass on than most of the other circuits. However, had danbojte passed me on the final 2 laps (assuming I had pitted when he did and exited the pits still with the ~1s lead), I would not have been totally surprised. He is an incredibly skilled driver.
Ok, now that I'm done whining like a little schoolgirl,
👍
Then I pulled into the pits and got tires and enough fuel to easily do two more laps, probably even a 3rd...By the time I got out of that pit stop I was now 7s behind. 
Going to practice some laps, not going to race though 
35s should be possible with less fuel Anyone around to host ?
You, you...Hot Damn, DC'd just when I posted lap 2 at 36.1s
178mph entering turn 3, 145mph turn 2 apex speed ( give or take ), 120mph turn 3 apex ( give or take ). The rest just ease on the brakes and good throttle play. Low BB is the key here to smooth speed control entering the turn, NASCAR style.
👍
I'll bet on none. You'll not have the time for that.Okay...So, only 2 races today. Gotcha. Which race do you think I will fall asleep during? The first or the second? And 100/1 odds payout if you can accurately predict which lap it will be!
I know these are considered "endurance" races by most people on GTP because they last 30 minutes, but to be honest, I'm not sure that I would like it if the races were much shorter than that. As it is, the most I've ever had to pit stop has been twice, I believe. That's with fuel consumption and tire wear turned onto "very fast". 30 minutes feels like the perfect amount of time.@ALB123 I haven't done many endurance races online due to my lack of interest when it comes to online racing in GT6. But I'm getting back into it, mostly in part to good racing clubs. When it comes to fuel, you only need enough to cross the finish line, that's all I'm going to say. I don't want to give away too many secrets. That might be the only way I finish ahead of you in the future!
@danbojte Can I be put down with car #45 if it's not spoken for, please?
I'm taking in consideration to make even longer races too in the future, to keep close to the Real Life, with Damage at Full.I know these are considered "endurance" races by most people on GTP because they last 30 minutes, but to be honest, I'm not sure that I would like it if the races were much shorter than that.

Is GTPlanet loading very slowly for anyone else? All of a sudden it's taking forever to load a page. WTF?
Still could see another tenth or 3 with better line and draft
2 pit stops at this track would be far beyond my driving with 30 minutes of racing. I needed 3 with my testing this morning on very fast. I did break 1 lap at 35.997, but most were 36.0's & 36.1's with almost a full second of drop off.I know these are considered "endurance" races by most people on GTP because they last 30 minutes, but to be honest, I'm not sure that I would like it if the races were much shorter than that.

@danbojte thank you sir!
, can go 10 laps but the pit entry becomes hard with the right rear tire at 3 or 4. The good thing like @danbojte said is that when you guys come to lap me I won't give you an inch .
Running with non fuel conserving pace ( 5th gear on turn 1 ) and very late entry on all turn.. 36s avg lap, would see at least 5 pits in 30 minutes race. Managed to stay in 36s lap even with 30% rear right tire
, ended up using it as a frisbee
