The Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge, Season 2! Thanks everyone!

Only 20 laps at Autumn ring...? That'll be done in around 22 minutes..

AR laps for GS will be around 1:10s so for a 30-40 min race you'll need more like 29-36 laps atleast . 30 laps would work out at 31/32 mins.

Autumn ring full will take longer which is where we will be

AR full is a 1:10 lap in GS cars it's a 1:17 ish lap in Toca cars..

I know my GT5 there are 4 variants of AR, full, full R, mini and mini R..

Edit: Consulting my GTPedia confirms I am right. AR full is 1.83mile long and the only other variant is mini and reverses.. (Mini takes less than 38 seconds..)

Stupid phone!

Horray I make-a-score-point .

I would've been like "why does everyone want 20 laps???"

 

[paulmac2k9]

I clicked onto the error straight away, I was like you expect people to pit at that length?

I sorta guessed something was up as you normally have 30-40 min races and an hour or so for enduros.

1:10 for gs?! I'm running 1:22

 

[paulmac2k9]

Well in Toca cars I ran a 1:19s with 295bhp and 1280kgs on RH tyres (Mazda Atenza 07). I would say with an extra 150bhp with similar weight in some and Rwd would slash around 5+ seconds off that time. So maybe more like 13s/14s.

 

[bountyfuzza]

Wow u guys r really fast or maybe I didn't build my car correctly

Which car is it? I might could help with some tuning advice.

 

[bountyfuzza]

Subaru wrx I made the weight and horsepower. What times are u running?

Don't know yet. I'm at work.

For the Subaru, make sure you have the torque distribution pretty far back. Try a ratio of 20/80 or even 10/90 front/back.

The ballast as well. I recommend using ballast at 50 rear position. Then it's less of a front heavy boat.

 

[R0ssingt0n]

Currently doing 1:19's in the Aston.

 

[Michelin]

I've done a 1:24 with the Golf.

 

[bountyfuzza]

Disconnected in lap 22 while running 2nd in ST.

I have to say sorry to Yeratel twice because of both times he went to pass me we had communication problems Did not mean to block you on the 1st time man, I meant to open the middle for you and in the second time I never saw you coming while battling with polar.
Polar, sorry for sometimes not giving you enough space and giving a few bumps.
Really sorry to both of you guys.

Was pitting mandatory?

No worries, I had a blast battling! Hopefully we'll be that close next week!

Pitting isn't mandatory, but the races are supposed to be long enough that a pit stop is helpful.

I really didn't need to pit.

 

[polarbear345]

I didn't either :/

Anyone have any problems with a mandatory stop?

Then why you did?

I don't think it should be mandatory.

Tried to pull a godly move off xD

I'm putting points up now

 

[cnd01]

Great battles today. Lhl and fuzza raced me very clean. I tried to return the favor the best I could. The 370 is a handful for me on a good day.

Paul was the class of the ST field today, he rocketed off after he went by the guy in the Civic.

By the way, I was a bit confused on the pace lap, I didn't know what to do.
Then when I came to the start/finish lane, there was a GS Subaru stopped, so I braked because I didn't know what was happening... I could've held the lead for some time if it weren't for those incidents at the start, because I lost the lead and 2nd place there.
