The first half was awesome. 👍 We ran nose to tail every lap til half way mark.
I don't know what happend to me after about lap 20, my concentration was shot and I couldn't hit apexes or braking points. It's a good thing I had a long lead on the next car back. I thought I had it made when I got that good lead on you after the pit stops, but I ended up being lucky to just get through to the end.
I never did see Led-Zeppelin, he never showed up on my screen or in my replay.

i never saw him either after the first few laps
watched the replay he just pulled on us every turn and was really close to the last place 500 car, think he ended up beating 2 500 cars in that race
Laggy but a good race, i liked how lapped cars let me bye and most of the gt300 cars let me bye also, there was one gt300 who for some reason thought he is racing with me but it was all good at the end because gt500 is just that much faster.
Next time Killa refresh the room before the start and everyone make sure your connections are good, close all programs on your pc that use internet and clear your cache before entering the room.
And by the way Killa, i am actually from Estonia not Finland.
Thanks.

I assume you're talking about Led who was racing with you? Yesterday was quite hectic so I ask all drivers to join my lounge 10 mins atleast before Quali's start...This gives me plenty if time to set the different regulations for both classes etc...
Qualifying for GT300 starts at 7:30pm UK Time and ends 15 mins later...I will then ask all the GT300 drivers to enter the pits and stay there...Then the GT500 drivers will enter the track and they will have 15 mins to set a time...This will reduce the traffic and will give everyone equal opportunities...
Sorry...I'll edit to say you're from Estonia instead of Finland...

Race Report
After a huge mixup in Quali's I had a really good race and fought hard with eronmm in the first 12 laps. terrible1f1 was caught sleeping on the last corner of the pace lap and I soon passed him (after the start finish line ofcourse
) On my in lap my tires just died and I lost the draft from eronmm. Inevitably eronmm started to break away on the second stint once there was no longer a draft. My tires gave me quite good life in general however I was quite shocked by the high level of front degredation. On the third stint I came upon gonzalez in the Lexus Weds Sport on the two slow corners before the straight. I went to pass him and he bumped into the rear of my car which led him into the barriers leaving me unharmed (sorry about that).
Next week quali's will start at 7:30pm for the GT300's and will last 15 mins, once this is over they will be told to stay in the pits. Then the GT500's will have 15 mins to set their time. This is to stop the GT300's from hampering the GT500's.
Lounge will open at 7:15 so it is urgent for all GT300 drivers to arrive before 7:30. UK Time by the way.
Podium Finishers in each class will also be receiving ballast penalties.
Thanks...

I was watching the replay and I saw Dragon in the Subaru GT300...His front tires had an 8th of rubber left wheras his rears had only lost an 8th...
That downhill hairpin is one of the corners I hate the most...It is just impossible to go 100%
I hope I can give you a tougher time in Suzuka next week...

That may end up being a 2 stop.

How many laps is Suzuka kk?
Judging by our race I think I can look after the tyres a bit better than you so if it's not a ridiculous length I think I could 1 stop.
R35 could no doubt do it without stopping at all
think its like 28 laps, it says on first page. "might" go 14 but i'd be alot slower then i'm use to running there

Cheers mate I should of checked the op
I think I will go for a one stop all being well, just do a Jenson and watch my tyres for the first few laps of each stint
Suzuka is one of my worst tracks so I don't think I could compete on lap times so this could be my best chance of getting on the podium

Yep its 28...doing a one stopper would effectively mean you save 30 odd seconds but you'll be losing a lot of time with beat down tires....Just hope we have a race similar to the Hungarian GP of this year in terms of weather changes
