So I bought the M6 GT3 to practice for nür circuit experience...

[GilbertAuSki]

As stated in the title, I bought the BMW M6 GT3 endurance which is the car used in the Nordschleife circuit experience.
I'd like to get used to the track and car before I even try it for the first time. I never took the time to learn that track yet.

But the car seems different in the event from the stock version, in the event it shows at 610pp when it has 726.67 stock, I did not put any turbocharger or touch anything since I bought it. The weirdest thing is that they both have 593hp/1300kg, I checked in the event, and they use the same racing hard tires, any idea what's going on ?

Ignore it and just use it I say.

I've just ran the fastest sector and compared to the TT, they seem to have the same top speed, I guess this should be okay.

That M6 is crazy pleasant to drive by the way

 

[Grayfox]

What tires are on the TT car?

 

[BloodRaven]

Run a lap in CE and then run a lap in Time Trial. If they're way off, then you know there's a discernable difference in the CE car vs. the one you buy.

I just ran 9 laps, the car seems okay, as I said it has the same top speed, I don't think they would have change aero/suspension for these events... The 610pp is a bug anyway, there is no option to tune down the car so low without breaking it.

My best lap was 7:00 and the best theorical 6:48, there's still some work to do here, but I'm gonna do it

Do you have all individual sectors on gold and are you able to reach this gold again and again, at most a very good silver?

 

[GilbertAuSki]

I have no sector yet, not even bronze, I just did not try, I'll first learn the track on my own in TT before attempting the CE.
I'm not in a hurry, I'll just run 30 minutes to an hour here and there on the track and when I feel comfortable I'll go for it.

Got gold on some other CE already, an I did it "normally", but for this one I don't want to spend my time sector after sector, I'll just learn it globally and then I should be able to gold sectors without spending hours on each one...

I get your point, I'll just try an other method here

Of course, try to do it the way you intend to do it... It's also important to know how to drive the whole lap... but through the individual sectors you quickly learn where you're currently losing a lot of time.

Agreed. You'll get a better understanding of each corner first comparing to the ghost...

Otherwise you can keep doing in some way lap after lap but there's a faster way you haven't thought of.

Anyway, good luck! It's a challenge indeed.
