It's more thanks for your time 👍

You're the guy that's putting all the time and mileage in to balance the cars 👍

 

[GTP IWIN]

Thanks mate.

I have just message RS this morning I hope to have the team car choice by the end of today my time but RS has not been online in the last few days but I know he's a good driver in gt5 and he will pick well.

 

[GTP IWIN]

John also consider the mp4 is 1119kg and the sls is 1313kg you will see the sls is bad on fuel the mp4 is bad on tyres if you cant control it's acceleration but the difference in weight make a big difference on fuel consumption look at the cars from all angles remember endurance race not a sprint race it's takes ages to fuel so keep that in mind send me a friends request on psn I can show you why each car is the pp it is.
But as i say we can make changes when ever we wont after we do some pre-season races and I do more endurance race testing with the cars the pp may slightly change from car to car but I think most of the cars are about right.

Get yours names down people only 2 spots to go before we can start this GT1championship.

 

[Duck149]

If the mb can't be matched then I'll race somethin else lol, just as long as its not 4wd (yawn)

And no worries about the team/independent rules, just offering to help out if there's someone without a team-mate.

 

[GTP IWIN]

Yeah duck I think PNuTButR is looking for a team mate in the ford gt give him a pm see what he says.

No worries mate, long way to go before peoples cars are to be confirmed and set in stone 👍

Exactly right 2 more people and we can get this underway

I'm sure it can be matched but more testing is needed (only been working on this idea less than a week) 👍

PNuTButR does need a team mate but will need to be full time, only 1 DLC track so only 1 race you can't compete in so are still eligible to be a full time driver 👍 also the Spa DLC is not expensive so have a think



I really want 12 people before we start but also I would like to start some pre season testing started ASAP, I am thinking about Sunday afternoon's for testing (at least until TOCA has finished), how is peoples availability for testing on a Sunday afternoon?

Sounds pretty good Mike, but I've just got a couple of questions.

Do the cars have to have the rear wings fitted?

Also if you're in a team, do you both take part in the same race with a car each, or do you have one car and change driver for each race?

Yes the wings do have to be fitted (trying to make them at least look as close to a GT racer as poss) 👍

Team, both take part in a car each but both cars must be the same car, color ETC. details of regulations for this are in the car list 👍

 

[CossieYB]

Ok thanks. I think i'll take the Ferrari 458.

 

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

👍 am I right in assuming you will be full time?

Also will you be forming a team or will you be independent?

 

[CossieYB]

Yeah i'm pretty sure i'll be able to race full time.

I might be teaming up with Glen. Just waiting for him to get back to me.

Thought so 👍 already put you in 👍

Glen will be a good choice for a team mate reliable and quick

Just remember you both have to use the same car so make sure you are both happy with the choice 👍

For anyone looking to join me in the Ford GT at Mugabe Motors, I have the DLC paints and have only used around a quarter of them, so that's an option for the colour.

I'm going to go purchase my GT now and break it in. I think I now have around 15 Ford GTs!

15 Ford GT's you must like them then making me worry about you with all that experience in your car

My favourite car is the Ford GT40 (so as you can expect, I've been acting like a fan-girl for the past few days about the GT6 announcements!) and I love the GT as well. I've got one that's tuned like the GT40, I've got a couple that are tuned like the GT race cars and have paint/aero like them and the rest are just a selection of colours.

I'm considering painting this one Matte Orange but I don't know if it'll give it white or black stripes!

A man that has the GT40 as a favorite car they are beauties

I will not be confirming colors until everything is sorted then will probably just color code the tables to your car colors so that you can spot yourselves easily 👍

Will we be allowed to choose our own colours, though? Or is there 'official' colours that are used IRL that you'd like to use? (I'm not familiar with the real event)

No pick your own paint job so long as you do form a team, all I have asked is that 1 car has body color bonnet and the other has a carbon bonnet.
Independents must use a white car with different color wheels for each driver 👍

I'm going to do testing on suzuka today after work so in about 9 hours from now I'm Betting that the 458 will be fastest followed by the gtr I'm then going to try daytona then I'm going to run each car in on bspec then try them in a longer endurance race to see tyre and fuel I'm going to put a lot of hours in this weekend to give you a clearer understanding of how good or fast the cars are in a endurance race. Also guys just remember we are all at different levels in terms of pace so if you use a handle car like 458 make sure you can get around corners quick and your braking is good that sls is fast but it has a lot of weaknesses I was able to keep up with mick no problem in the 458 and he had the sls my lap time in 458 was faster then he's sls which I manage 31s at Fuji if you want to know anything about the cars send me a reply or pm thanks for your time

Could you post your results for Suzuka please mate 👍

I'm more than happy to team up if you get desperate lol, I could end up working on a Saturday afternoons though....

"desperate" is the key word in that sentence lol

 

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

there will be some small changes to the car spec's later today​

I am about to meet up with IWIN and do some further testing and will post results later today and will update car list with new spec's 👍

 

[GTP IWIN]

Ok Mike I wont give exact times.
But I went to suzuka I did 1 hot lap in each car tyre wear on normal all times were between 159.4 to 2min 3secs and at daytona power track the time were between 142.1 to 143.3
Some cars pp were changed while i was testing them on these tracks Mick will update page

 

[PNuTButR]

Can I change my team name to 'Irn Bru Autosport'?

I've painted my car French Blue with Matte Orange wheels to match the colour scheme!

revised car specs

Main post updated

458= unchanged
Gallardo= 590 from 588
R8= 595 from 589
GT= unchanged
Z06= unchanged
GT-R= 588 from 593
SLS= 595 from 603
Viper= unchanged​

 

[gtpcaine]

for those still deciding on what car, the Viper at max aero and broken in sits at 597pp, so you can only add parts equal to 13pp gain (supercharger adds 13 alone)

so like what was said before, careful planning on what parts to add will be needed. I.E non-reversible (engine + weight) or removable (blower, inlet + exhaust)

👍 exactly

 

[heavyq]

Since I know I cannot commit to this (IDK if my wife would approve of me taking up the living room for so long ) is there anyone who can maybe stream the races to Twitch or record them to be watched later? I would love to compete, but being able to watch would be awesome as well
