Road/Street Car 550pp 1hour Endurance race at Spa (28th August)Finished

[paoloevans]

Hey paolo, I've only just come across this thread by chance - even though you tagged me earlier - weird.

Anyway, I'd ike to take part, please. I'll go with a good old fashioned street car with no aero I reckon, it'll be more fun to tune, if frustrating to race

550PP was something I did a lot of on GT5 and I seem to remember the M3 CSL being a pleasure to drive, so I'll go for that, please.

aboe!! Hey mate. Glad you found this thread in time then Your on the list. Hopefully you can challenge Kefran lol

Anyone getting close to the 2:20's?

 

[paoloevans]

Very sorry Paolo but I will change for the KTM X-Bow R '12 #17, the Street version works a bit too well

No probs

 

[paoloevans]

Kefran is! Mate I can only manage low 2:25's at very best.

sounds like me and you are on similar pace. Should make a good race.

2:22's. I might have to revise my car choice if the CSL is too uncompetitive.

Kefran is!

... But I will not drive that car Thursday

2'22 is very good. I did some 2'21 with the X-Bow street but I won't use it (It seems I found some magical values for the suspensions )

That's amazing pace. I got a couple mid 2.25's last night. Don't think I can get any more than that out of it.

Looks like us three will have a good scrap for best of the rest!

My tune for the 550PP KTM X-BOW Street '12

Hey Paolo, sorry to be a bother but I've found a car that I prefer the handling of and would like to switch from the M3 CSL.

New car: Zonda C12S

 

[paoloevans]

My tune for the 550PP KTM X-BOW Street '12

That looks very different from the set up I have. I've tweaked mine some more and found a little more time. Not sure to increase my top speed incase of slip stream. Currently red lining right at the end of the two big straights.

Grid numbers are looking good thanks guys

Double digits now. Can't wait for tonight!

Do you take one newbie with you?

Funny thing, I checked my garage to find optimum car for race, and i realized that i already have that Honda NSX-R Prototype LM-car that you just discussed. So that would be my choice. I dont know if i have any aero-kits on it, but is it ok if i choose RESET DEFAULTS on downforce selection from my setups?

If ok, put my name to list:

Nicklas911
Honda NSX-R Prototype LM Road car

 

[Nicklas911]

And one more thing:

I i have to retire for some reason, should i go to pit or is it better to leave somewhere far from track?

Sorry stupid questions, but this is my first online racing challenge.

You are most welcome to race with us. Yeah you must have stock aero, no custom wings and if adjustable must be default etc. Please read GTPlanet guidelines as aboe pointed out I will add you to the entry list oh and pulling off the track in a safe place is fine.

See you tonight!

 

[Disqualp]

Wow, I read all the rules that aboe linked. But it contains so many details that I wish that I could remember all. Fortunately, most of them werebasic self-evident track racing rules

Anyway, link was very useful and think i´m ready now.

Yeh, they are quite in-depth, but they're there to help improve online racing in the community. As you say, though, a large majority of the stuff contained in the OLR is plain, good-old-fashioned, common sense. I think that as long as we show respect to our fellow racers both on AND off the track, then issues will be kept to a minimum.

simplezh!

Are we supposed to be adding somebody to race?
