WGT1 -- final results and standings up -- Red_Leader is champion --

[Glenalz81]

Ahhhh,the joys of racing..almost the same scenario for me trying to pass Tk on the last 4-5 laps thought i woulda had him no probs but the car just wasn't pulling the same plus the 2pp difference..should've stayed on the hards till the end and kept 6th (damage limitation) i blame your trophies..lol..

 

[gtpcaine]

I was surprised when you pitted with 10 to go that you put hards on again!

You should know better
Ok, Monaco is one of my favorit track because it doesn't give you anything free, it's a technical, difficult and demanding track. I would love do heavy damaged race here

... The big surprise for me was Jammy, you kept me honest for pace, had me worried for most of the race. It wasn't until the final stint when he started to drop back a little...

 

[Glenalz81]

I was surprised when you pitted with 10 to go that you put hards on again!

looool..thats new info for me...didn't know i put hards on again.....that'll explain why i couldn't pass tk!

 

[RS__96__oO]

Glen, you really didn´t have the race you wanted, huh? 👎
Whereas I gotta say, that I also fu:censored: up my race with crashing into nearly every single wall towards the end.. Really produced a lot of **** there But as I said, I hope I get Nurburgring right, then maybe I can catch up with Caine in the ratings

 

[Glenalz81]

Yep,for sure rs..didn't quite turn out the way i would've liked..trying to find a positive about monaco but i don't think i've got one..but never mind,home track next week and i shall be more prepared than any other race this season

 

[RS__96__oO]

Same here, but I don´t want to talk too much about preparations, laters I´ll crash again the whole race lol
But at least it´s my home track, too. And not only in game, I actually live beside the Nurburgring! So I´m looking forward to the race

 

[gtpcaine]

I'm looking forward to the race, but not expecting anything great. The Viper isn't the best car to sling around the ring -- despite it taking the production lap record IRL, plus my PP penalty, it's not as much as Mike, but to me, the Viper seems very susceptible to pp reductions.

I'm hoping being consistent will be enough for me, but judging by past events... it wont!

 

[ROB 256R]

I've not really bothered too much about strategy in previous races but I'm going all out for this one. Hope it's dry, otherwise all my workings out have been for nothing!

 

[Glenalz81]

I'll be going on around 7.45 for some 4 lap practice races if anyone would like to join feel free

 

[gtpcaine]

I wasn't gonna say anything until Mike posts the tables, but congrats on the series win Rob! 👍 Well deserved. The best thing is, the gap between us is exactly the points I lost to you at Daytona + Spa, races which I should have won! Would have made an epic finale had they gone my way! But, you have been consistent and fast so its only fair it goes to you!

So really, apart from bragging rights, the extra effort you are putting in for the finale is a waste of time!

Nethertheless, should be a good race! Bring it on!

lol..don't wan't rob to practice too much, or the likleyhood being he's finished before we've started..lol

 

[Glenalz81]

Yeah and a big congrats to the WGT1 champion. 👍

Thanks. Yep, I realised after Saturday I couldn't be caught anymore.

Hmm. It's certainly a theory the Daytona/Spa thing but don't forget both would have come with additional pp handicap which could well have affected your subsequent race results. And similarly I would have had less handicap for the subsequent races so I might well have done better in those. And where would Mikey be without the races he missed? He's only 16pts behind you now and that's with two less race scores than you! So yeah, I think your maybe not quite as close to leading as you think.

I acknowledge the Ford has been a very good car in the end. It seemed almost immune to the pp handicaps. Gets probably the best fuel economy and maybe the second best tyre wear after the R8. I wish there had been other GTs taking part to see what percentage was the car and what percentage was me. But I am pleased with the limited amount of mistakes I have made.

It's nothing to do with bragging I just like to do my best. I'm not bothered about extra practice I just wanted to mathematically work out the optimum pit strategy this week. Which I have done. For me, it's a 4 stopper.

 

[ROB 256R]

Yeah and a big congrats to the WGT1 champion. 👍

Thanks Glen.

Hi guys, my PC is back up and running now at last

I am going to get to work and post all the official results from Monaco and get everything up to date ahead of the finale this weekend 👍

I will also like to congratulate ROB on taking the title, Also I would guess (not done the maths yet) that we can confirm Ferrari as the winning manufacturer 👍

 

[ROB 256R]

Thanks. Shame you missed those two races and IWIN quit. I think we all would have been very close going in to the final race.

Any weather news to report?

CHAMPIONSHIP STANDINGS

After Monaco the standings look like this:

As you can see with only one race left Red_Leader cannot be caught and so is crowned champion with one race left.
Congratulations to ROB for taking both the drivers and independents title's.

I am pleased to say the teams championship is still up for grabs and could be taken by any of the top 3 teams

As for the Manufacturer title we can safely say Ferrari has that in the bag

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

As we are now heading to the final race of the series I am starting to think more about the 1st series to be held on GT6.

The most prominent changes will be the cars and the track list and 2 tier championship.
With more GT race cars to be available in GT6 I would like to use these.
The new tracks will be made up of real world tracks again but as there are more with change time/weather (supposed to be live to real track information) we will probably use these where we can.
The championship will be split into 2 categories with a PRO and an AM title to fight for. Drivers will be split depending on performance in the pre-season testing by way of points system.

I would like some feedback of your experience in this 1st series and if there is anything you would like to see changed please let me know and I will see whats what next week and attempt to get an interest check thread open as soon as I can (link will be posted in this thread) 👍

 

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

As I have been sat on GTPlanet all day with not a lot to do I decided to work on a sign up thread for the next series to be held on GT6 in the new year.

I would like you guys that would be interested to get your names in and get the numbers up

it is called the World GT Championship (WGTC). Go check it out 👍

Any good feedback and change's from this series would be considered for the next series 👍

 

[gtpcaine]

I wont be available for practice tomorrow, but will be there early on Sat.

 

[P1K3Y_M1k3Y]

I wont be available for practice tomorrow, but will be there early on Sat.

No worries mate 👍

 

[RS__96__oO]

Gonna be there for testing tomorrow 👍
Well yeah, also congratulations from me, Rob! Your pace was just incredible in the races

PRACTICE LOUNGE OPEN​

 

[jammy21]

Weekend race: what kind of track time you're going to use? Starting time and time progress? Any night ride?
Is weather still clear and sunny?

Weekend race: what kind of track time you're going to use? Starting time and time progress? Any night ride?
Is weather still clear and sunny?

Time will be set so the race starts around 13:00 game time and will be set to progress 12 for a full 24 hour cycle within the 2 hours. Weather is still expected to be dry so will probably go with 25% changeability 0 👍
