TPC GT3 Monthly Endurance Events Season 2 - Race 2 December 14th Lago Maggiore - Spaces Available

Hi there. Is this league managed entirely here on gtplanet or is there also a discord?

We have a race team (4-10 drivers) that are looking for a new series within this time frame. Looks like this season is already full but we'd probably check out your next season?

Hi, thanks for your enquiry. All of the TPC events are formally managed via this forum.
I will message you directly regarding your group but if you guys/girls wish to do some racing with us in the mean time, we have a couple of other events available this Friday and Saturday.
Hope to see you there

Mercedes-Benz SLR Trophy - Nov. 16

This is a recreation of the SLR Trophy, an ill-fated attempt to turn the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren supercar into a racing series featuring identical SLR 722 GTs. Big power in a heavyweight, front-engine layout supercar attempts to turn the ultimate GT into a full race car. Three short sprint...

I have a wet practice lobby open for an hour.
Edit: lobby closed

If anyone wants to practice the safety car or warm up lap procedure I’ll hopefully have a lobby open in 2-3hours time.

@Kermit_2142 if it's not too much trouble, may I switch to Porsche?

Pre Race Notice

Hi all, I hope everyone is looking forward to race 1. The lobby will open a little before the hour and Qualifying will start at 10pm uk time, which is just under 7 1/2 hours from now. Just a few last minute things:

• Don’t forget to double check your bop settings and give your cars a fresh oil change.
• Track limits are 2 wheels on the red/white curbing. Driving 4 wheels beyond track limits and will require a short lift to nullify any advantage gained.
• Please remember to obey flags and pit exit/entry lines.
• If we have any rain the pit lane may remain wet the entire race. Be aware of this if exiting the pits with slick tyres.
• We are completing 1 formation lap for the race start and I would like to carry on with paired up starts. Please pair up entering the final corner, the leader can start the race at any point after the pit entry.
• “Safety Cars tend to breed more Safety Cars” so for Safety Car restarts we will remain in single file and the leader can restart the race at any point from the final corner.
• Qualifying will be 5 minutes and have randomised weather

Most of all have fun and enjoy the event

 

[Kermit_2142]

To save any confusion for the formation lap. The leader can “go” at any point after the green line.

Race lobby is now open. Good luck and have fun

Well that Round 1 was some of the most fun I had in the game 😄. What a crazy race! I'm super happy with that P1 in the end, by the skin of my teeth.
Thanks for hosting @Kermit_2142 and thanks to everyone who showed up.

Here are some photos.

And one bonus shot just to make fun of Team Red.

 

[Kermit_2142]

Thanks for race everyone. Hopefully you all enjoyed it, it looks like everyone had plenty going on with the weather shifts and different strategies playing out.
P4 qually and a P5 finish might be my best result of the season but we’ll see how we go, I was very fortunate how things played out. I spent most of my race chasing @Michelin Man but I had some small battles with a few of you throughout the race.
Thanks everyone for the clean racing and extra effort making the events run smoothly, I will aim to have results and points confirmed next weekend for those interested. If anyone wants me to take a look at an incident please let me know privately by Thursday.
The next race at Maggiore will be dry, and I will confirm the multipliers and post a more detailed weather forecast next week.

If my pit crew hadn't fluffed a pit stop making me do an extra stop, I might have finished ahead of @Philtaylor17
That would have been a feather in my cap 🥳

Thanks for hosting @Kermit_2142. It was a well run affair and I enjoyed myself.

Sorry I'm out for Round 2.

Track Limits for Maggiore can be debatable so hopefully this should clear up any questions.

As usual, only 2 wheels are required to be on track to remain legal.

Painted red and white curbs are usable.

Grey concrete is unusable

Where there is double red and white curbing, the joining line is the track limit.

T1 double curbing

Entry to T2 is extended to open up the entry creating a more fluid racing line into T3 and invite closer racing.
(Beware there is a large bump out there)

Exit of T3 double curbing. (This can be a tricky one, turning in late for T2 reduces the risk of running wide here)

Esses painted curbs

Esses painted curb with concrete.

The exit of the esses is extended to give more space for racing at high speeds

Big Banky Boy painted curb with concrete

T12 concrete is unusable

T14 red and white painted curbs with concrete

Final corner with double curbing

Final corner exit is extended to reduce the need to overly cut the entry.
