Sim Racing Madness [SRM] simracingmadness.comPS4 

Suppose that works, 930 start or room open?

I’m home now. Will open the lobby at 9:15 ish, race will start at 10.

:)

@sgohsixthree I do not want to reserve a spot for more time, my ps4 is not fix yet, so I'll be out for the next Tuesday night race.:banghead::banghead::banghead:

if it is @the Camel who takes my spot ....... I would take his score to continue the series enduro:lol::lol:;)

Sorry to hear bud! It will be @The__Camel to take your place. The points however... nice try.:lol:
 
Hey guys, I don't see a room. If you guys are still on, could you send me an invite please?

Sorry I missed this last night. :crazy: I'll put you on the reserve list incase someone doesn't show, but we are full for tomorrow otherwise.

The final lineup for tomorrows Spa race is shaping up! Just need confirmation from @1LBgummybear ! If we don't hear from you by the start of qualifying tomorrow I'm going to give your spot to @Alex ONeill . So be on standby if you still want in!

Again, these are tentative listings and could still change, but a nice overall split. We'll see what @coltsjugg shows up in. :lol:

Okay thanks. I'm a little dissapointed that I have to be on the Reserved List but am happy to know that the league is thriving.

Also, would love to make it official to race in the Indy Series mate? Think that begins the following Tuesday on the 7th and on.. This way I can start practicing for it :).

Thanks Mcinnis 👍.

For sure bud! There are some SRM Vets that come back for the Enduros, and because they already raced earlier rounds, will be given priority. But some can't commit to the regular series rounds either. So getting in shouldn't be a problem.
 
Figured out my pit issue. Although I had it set for rain tires it was also set for recommended so it didn't change my tires. Fixed it after the race last night and worked like a charm. Still doesn't help that I am 2 seconds off.

I had a feeling that's what it was. That's why I asked you to double check. Glad its fixed

Same. Thank you for going through it and figuring it out. I don't think I've ever had a pit issue that wasn't my own fault. But when guys are frustrated with pit stops it's hard to say that without sounding like a pompous 🤬. That's one reason I really want to try and force guys to pit as much as possible. To learn and figure it out. Plus it makes the racing less static. Kudos. :cheers:
 
:gtpflag: RACEDAY ALERT!! :gtpflag:

Tonight we go to Spa for the 3rd around of the SRM World Enduro Series. A 1.5HR race with GT3 and TCR machinery that will be a challenege to even the best drivers. Might be a good idea to practice your pitstops during the qualifying session so you are familiar not only with the entry, but also that your strategies are set correctly.

As it stands I have heard from all drivers that they intend to make the race today. I have been informed that at least one may be cutting the race close and will keep me informed, so @Alex ONeill and @potvinsuks if you are around and patient there may be a last minute spot or two.

See you all tonight!

Someone can have my spot, getting ready for holidays.
 
Whats a good lap time to shoot for i havent driven the track yet but see sub 2:20's for gt3 as fast laps?

Depends on what your strategy is and car choice, but I am running the Audi R8 LMS Endurance and my race pace was 2:19:7xx - 2:20:4xx

*NOTE - Steam leaderboards had a top time of 2:17:7xx for the Audi. I am guessing that was done with 5L of fuel and all the ducts (Brake & Radiator) closed.
 
Haven’t played this game since I last raced with you like a month and half ago or whatever, haven’t even looked at the cars to race, but I’ll be there, practice is for chumps

Well then. :cool: I hope your strategy pays off. Glad you're taking it seriously. :lol:

I think I may have found a second and a half. Like it will help me in the race though. Looking forward to stinking the place up tonight.

Don't worry, I'll be there with you.

What time is the actual race, might not make the qualifying but I will be there for the race?

Race starts at the same time they always start, 8:30 EST. You going to make it by then?

Awesome stuff, thanks bud :).

Now to pick a car.

I guess I'll either drive the Cadillac GT3, or the Opel Astra. Whichever class is needed more Mcinnis.

Caddy is banned. List is below. It looks like we actually have fewer GT3 drivers, which I was not expecting. But go with what you'd like!

GT3 (Group A)
Acura NSX GT3
Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3
Audi R8 LMS / Endurance
Bentley Continental GT3 / Endurance
BMW M6 GT3
BMW Z4 GT3
Cadillac ATS-V.R GT3

Ferrari 488 GT3
Ginetta G55 GT3
Lamborghini Huracan GT3
Mclaren 650S GT3
Mercedes AMG GT3
Mercedes SLS AMG GT3
Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3
Porsche 991 GT3 R / Endurance
Renault Sport R.S.01 GT3

TCR (Group B)
BMW 320 TC
Mercedes A45 SMS-R TCC
Opel Astra TCR
Renault Mégane SMS-R TCC​

I’m driving the Megane. What lap time should I be running, 2:30?

Something like that. I don't think I'm that fast.
 
Wow! Great race! Best of all no disconnects!! Sucks we all had to loose some points to restart the race after the game locked a few out. But it was worth it.

Congrats to @The__Camel for an incredibly consistent showing in GT3, and @bloodyboyblue for giving everyone the finger and proving that hard work and dedication is futile after taking the TCR class win. The weather was waaaaay more crazy than I had thought, but that's not all bad! Kept guys on their toes with pit strategies and such. Hearing everyone scramble or a pit strategy and bouncing ideas off one another was awesome. I loved that aspect, not so much that there really wasn't too many close battles outside the first half of the race. But still great!

Next week we begin the Indy International Invitational! And right afterwards head to Road America for Round 4 of the WES! What's gonna suck is the guys who missed the last race wanting in on the next. We'll cross that bridge when we get there. Still, get those LMP2/GTE picks in! :cheers:

Hey I spent an hour practicing when I got home from work, that’s the most successful I’ve ever been with a tune I came up with myself, even though it was just a few tweaks on the default. I definitely won’t use that car again though unless everyone else is, since it’s too fast, just like Meganes often are in GT Sport.
