Thoughts on this?

This Tuesday we run the LeMans race again for those who got hosed on the last one. Scored for fun, the points from last race will stand for the series. Same classes, because everyone put a good amount of time preparing last time.

I'd like to get this in before the actual race next weekend. Instead of doing it another night, and avoid conflict with others series or other obligations you might have during the week we can keep to Tuesday and...

We cram the F40 series into 2 nights (3 races a night) and keep Knockout Night on 7/3, which I'll have finalized soon.

Yay? Nay? GF'ed?
Sounds good to me, I know I didn't deserve the ranking I got, I was just looking to get a full race in.
 
Maaan I was hoping it would turn into a weekend event because it would mean I could participate.

How is everybody? I've been working like a dog and staying in hotels during the week. It's making me money but I'm not really happy about it. There's a change in my living situation coming hopefully before the snow flies this year. Hopefully after that I can come back as at least a part timer. We'll see if I can hold off that long, I'm getting pretty impatient as it is.

Don't try the BMW lol
 
Ok so it’s settled, I’ll update the schedule when I get home.

Well run the race again, hopefully with fewer problems. I’ll be sure to reset everything before hand.

Points for fun, will not count in the overall series. Run what you want, but if you already have a setup and pit strategy, might not want to stress yourself out with a new make.

Same roster as before gets invites.

Practice race tonight for those who can make it. 7:30PM qually opens, 8:30PM is race. Half length again. (45mins)

@Eh Team next weekend during LeMans if we do our normal watch along on PSN, maybe we can get a race going then too you can join?
 
I sure hope these E3 conferences are over by Tuesday. I had an issue with concentration during the practice race. :dunce::lol:

Thanks for showing up guys! Gonna need that @HazardLvL4 Vette tune. :)

Alright, so I have no problem sharing the setup for the C7R at LeMans. However, that being stated I can't guarantee you will like it or that it will work for your driving style. Currently, my setup is on the twitchy side and can catch you off guard under trail braking, it might try to snap. Lastly, you have to open the wheel up in coordination as you feed throttle. Too much throttle too fast, with the wheel still turned over, will cause the back end to spin up and come around.

I'm open to it at least. Sideways smiling in a ball of fire is how we all want to go out anyway right? You're just insane fast in that thing, and I want see see if I can improve. I can't catch you, but i'd like to find a couple more seconds a lap.
 
:gtpflag: RACEDAY ALERT!! :gtpflag:

Since some of you had so much fun last time, and others didn’t because of disconnects, we will run the same LeMans race from last week!

Race the same car or different, up to you. Racing license will be on, same 90 min race. The only real difference is that the points will not replace the first race or count towards the championship.

I know a couple guys from last week will miss this one, so be on the lookout for an invite if you didn’t make last race.

See you tonight!

:cheers:

@sgohsixthree, what time you going to be on this afternoon, this way I can send over the C7R setup?

Probably open the room about 7PM EST to start qually, if that works for you. No rush, I can grab it when you hop in.

@sgohsixthree, would it be fine for me to post my stream up on the SRM thread here for tonight's race? I usually always stream my races with PITS, but I know you guys do an SRM stream, which is really good btw, and didn't want to step on toes.

Absolutely! The more the merrier. Ideally I'll figure out a way to get us all streaming! I have a vision for that, but lack the skills. :lol:

Was looking forward to tonight, real life stepped in and put an end to those plans. watching the stream. Have fun guys
 
My Freakin Cable, phone and internet went down, and didn’t come back until the end of the race, naturally.
Can’t even play PS4 without the internet because it locks all my games except the ones on disk, and 1 of those requires internet to play anyway. Oh well
 
I thought I changed the wets to slicks but must've changed the wrong pit stop and came out with wets, sorry I quit but I kept spinning out. Oh well, live and learn.
 
Results from last night. Congrats to @The__Camel and @HazardLvL4 on the class victories! Overall a smoother race performance-wise. I'm thinking one of the problems from last week might be the long qualifying. But who knows.

I saw you wanted a doughnut. :lol: Sorry we missed you, we'll hang soon!

@etcetera_997, Sorry about that in Turn 1 at the start of the race. I lost downforce on the front and locked up. I couldn't stop in time. I apologize if I caused any damage to your car.

I would penalize you, but pretty sure it wouldn't matter with your pace. :sly: Thanks for apologizing. 👍

I think every gte got a little damage in that back up lol

I got through it, all my damage was of my own doing. :mad:

Bummer it happened right before the race.:ouch:

Must have been the @yogi bear pit crew getting lost after their vacation and ending up in the wrong pit.:crazy:
