WSC VII - DrifterJoe, Snowcrash, Ford Champions!Finished

[RyanRacer]

You mean it fixed... so after a stop we won't have stupidly bad tyres.

Well no. I read there was a new glitch where the previous one was reversed.

Haven't had that confirmed. This true @TDZdave ? Your N24 lobby, you and Scott may have found that?

 

[Akmuq]

It's called less fuel.

 

[LancerEvo7]

those are the tires they came with

You'll find that the tires the cars come with are too grippy more often than not. For example, based on skid pad data, I've found that the McLaren F1 should come on CM tires.

PD. Polyphony Digital.

 

[LancerEvo7]

To be honest, it's probably just to make the cars more drivable for beginners. Try driving the F1 on CM tires, it's tough just to keep it on the track. I know in GT5P PD released a thing suggesting the correct tires for each car.

 

[SagarisGTB]

I just got back from a test session with timed races and I am happy to report that PD has done good here. You can finally finish a lap down in an online race and you cannot finish your race until the winner finishes theirs. It's all correct to how it's done in real life.

If the tire glitch is fixed now, endurance races will finally become viable in GT6.

Edit: Apologies to Furi about not making any races in this past WSC, but I was busy and the tire glitch made me wary of this type of racing.

Best. News. Ever.

Wait so everyone can catch up and finish? Best news indeed.

If we set it to a 2hr 30min race, Daytona will be around 2hrs 24min with the pace lap included.

If we set it to a 2hr 30min race, Daytona will be around 2hrs 24min with the pace lap included.

Unfortunately, 2h30min isn't possible. The options go 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 25 min, 30 min, 40 min, 50 min, 60 min, 90 min, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, and so on with every hour up to 24.

Personally, I'd rather the option for a 75, 105 or 150 minute race over the frankly nearly-useless options for 17 or 19 hour race.

Something for PD to work on for a future update then? (The ability to adjust the duration of Endurance/Timed races to times like 72 or 144 minutes.)

I would also like to see the 2x Rolling start for non-Oval tracks included as a option in a future update as well.

 

[DK]

I wonder if Furi's Sunday test will involve the return of the GTE series.

No but I advise people to have 2.2 million CR handy for sunday night.

I'll get the Red Bull...

And check the dealership for 2.2m cars.

 

[chrisjohnson93]

I'm on around 17m after the 2 new seasonals for today, will it be this sunday night?

 

[Downhill Dino]

If everyone is up for it we could glitch it in.

 

[Furinkazen]

Yeah guys, this sunday gonna test something.

Might not be WSC-related, but I'm wondering if this has to do with a car that was ahead of Vision GT's time...

VGT?

 

[chrisjohnson93]

I'm thinking it has something to do with LM cars as they all cost between 1.7m and 2.2m

Just wondering, who is that you have as your avatar?

 

[SagarisGTB]

Elio de Angelis, the late Italian f1 driver.

I always like the helmet he wore, very recognizable.

I can't afford to waste 2.2m unless its a series that is actually going to happen.

I wish, then all my setups would be fine,

5/6 week one, part of the FRL summer extravaganza! I'll reveal more in the FRL thread....

And NO, not a Red Bull.

 

[Roflwaffle]

Quick! Everyone, use the car search and check for 2.2M cr cars!

Tried that earlier. It's mostly LMP cars, and the closest to 2.2m is the Sauber Mercedes C9.

 

[Roflwaffle]

Group C extravaganza?
