The Rolex Sports Car Series- Season 2! Finished! Thanks Everyone!

[polarbear345]

I like the idea of Suzuka being at the end of the season.

No Ant this season?

I haven't heard from him yet! I see hope we see him. I ment to send him a message on playstation yesterday, but I was too lazy...

But on the plus, Nitro said he may do Rolex this season!

I want to see ant on the grid this year. He is very fast and races clean. Hopefully he can work it into his schedule.

I think he can, he only missed one or two races last season. But he has a job (I believe it's a real full time job) and he works all day. But I do hope he will join us!

I have a full time job as well. Thankfully it is at a golf course, and my boss is awesome and gives a very flexible work schedule.

Nice! But I think he's like 20's so his full time job is a but different down there in Argentina!

Oh well. Are we starting the preseason this weekend?

Well we ran into some problems in gt. turns out two days ago I wasn't just slow in gt academy... We were all doing 1:46's without problems...

Yea MrMel's rx-8 was running just as fast as the Sauber on the front stretch. They are all too fast strait line speed.

Yea, but we were running max downforce, but they need to be in a race situation to really get some good data.

So true, but 1.46s are over a second faster than the track record at Daytona RC

Try 3 from the pole time. Thing is.. DP is about the same, so it's balanced out in a way. And our tires last about 1/4th the time of the real races. Theirs last 60ish ours last 15 if we're lucky.

Good point. We also can run tcs and abs which irl they don't have either.

Yea, but the weird part is where we're gaining time. I remember the announcers saying that in the slower corners the cars are the same, and on the straights are where the prototypes gain all their time. In our case, it's backwards!

The Daytona Prototype must not have as much downforce as what we are running on the Group C cars.

 

[james6653]

Did anyone see anything else wrong with my points?

 

[polarbear345]

I think so. I tried it at min. Downforce, to see how much it would slow us down... Spinning out definitely slows you down 5 seconds a lap!

A few more drivers have signed up.

 

[polarbear345]

Seth, can I put you down for the Nissan?

Oh I bet it does. I will play with downforce and see just how much of a difference it makes.

Great! Let us know how it goes!

Looks like another test session after work today. I get more and more excited about this the more I drive the Sauber.

Great!!! I really want to drive the Minolta! But I think I'll just get used to the civic with my old wheel. It'll be the first organized race ice done with it... If I can make the race.

Ok I will fix that when I get home

Good. Will you be running the rx-8 this year in GT?

 

[Storm_SP17]

I'm pretty stoked this year. Looks like the turn out will be much larger. Probably not a good thing for me, given who's entered in GT, but it'll be a challenge. I reckon that if I can continue along my path of improvement, and FH doesn't abandon me, Dodge will be a much stronger team in terms of the manufacturer's title.

Yea!


And I just saw a Aventador on the side of the road! In Chicago...


Along with 30000000 park avenues with 24 inch wheels....

Yes I will why

No worries here man. I've been stuck with late night work lately so I've been quiet. Got a lot of GT5 built up in me. So I'll be letting it all out this weekend.

Maybe we can run mandatory meds if the gt's are to fast?

 

[freshseth83]

Yeah, I was going to use the Sauber, but IMO it's too easy. The Toyota was faster too, but I'll be using the Nissan since I have experience with these cars. It should be a bit more challenging.

Great! One more DP spot! If someone could message Anthony, that'd be great.
