When Bob pits

[GT5_X2010]

How do you make Bob do longer stints. I entered a lvl 24 driver into the Tskuba 4 hours in the roadsters and he pitted on lap 5 for an unkown reason. I don't want to supervise him so how do you make him do longer stints automatically?

EDIT: pit-in strength was on 90%

Pit in Strength to off and pace down.

What does pit-in strength even refer too?

Pit strength mean when their strength gets that low pit
So for endurance races you want it higher with no endurance lower

So with endurance racing I want it set to lower amounts so that Bob goes longer without pitting. So I would be best setting it to 10% right?

Usually I just turn it completely off, so they stay in the race even longer then when it's set to 10%. If your Bob is at a higher level, and the car has a certain advantage, you don't need to worry about the strength.

For that race yes

For longer races like the 24h
I'd set it higher
My drivers are in the 30's
And on a 4h I do about ten so they are well rested for their other stints

Set it to off, he won't pit unless the tyres are worn out or the fuel is all gone.

Combine with the pace down command for maximum effect. I think my driver lasted over an hour without pitting in that race.

the fully tuned MX5 '05 with pit strength set to off and pace turned right down will be enough to win this then?

Easily.

I never use the pit strength function

The pit-strength option always seems to make your drivers worn out and subsequently more prone to mistakes quicker, turn it off completely.

gotcha. I'll make a fourth driver ( i have 5 already but two are online ) and then enter four instead of 1 like I do when I haev an X2010
