First post updated with race length. 30 laps should get the race done in an hour. (Before the football games start.)
I will reset the server at 1:00 EST for 1 hour practice, 15 min qualifying, 30 lap race. Password raceclean. Hope to see you on the track.

Don't hold me to this, but I think I start the track at 99 grip (dynamic track) aids are factory or disallowed except auto clutch. Damage and tire wear at 100.

Thanks, question though. When I go into practice mode my options for tire wear are 1x, 2x and top out at 3x. Do you know if 100 tire wear = 3x or 1x? Also, you might want to put auto throttle blip on if possible. Without it on, downshifting with paddles is quite rough unless you rev match and with damage on full and throttle blip off, it might be that you will blow up your transmission unless you blip the throttle on each downshift whether using clutch/shifter or paddles.

EDIT: And it's the Group A STD version not the DTM version?

Also, any idea if Soft Slicks would last 30 complete laps?......are ya'll l planning on Med Slicks?................or would that be giving away company secrets?

Completely anecdotal but I have found so far in the couple of races I've run that one compound down from the softest is often the best for 20-30 laps races. Lap times are very similar but the tires don't go off nearly as fast. Tires should last 30 laps no problem.

EDIT: I'm heading in now...no Mumble yet though.
