If it's not too late, and if I can be supplied with a car from WSCC (if you guys still do that) i'd love to join.
GTP: joshua1994
PSN: joshua1994
Car: Audi R10 TDI Race Car '06/Peugeot 908 HDi FAP - Team Oreca Matmut '10 (whichever can be supplied, if possible)
Sorry to be gegging in, but in my honest opinion, having heavy dam. will actually make everyone drive alot more pre-cautious. Heck, if these people do drive like its a demolition derby, there also going to be ruining there own race. To me, light damage encourages the odd sneaky hit, as well you're race isn't over. Just my two cents tho.

Yes Joshua it's impossible now to gift cars that are worth more than 1M credits.
There are many seasonal events that can give you 500,000 credits every time like the ferrari event at la sarthe, you can win it without problem with a pumped to the max PP ferrari like the 458 italia and you can repeat the event (every time only less then 4 minutes) to gain money you need (you have to repeat it 8 times for the 4M car)
There are now free 2 Audi R10 and 1 Peugeot 908 HDi FAP - Team Oreca Matmut '10, if you want a teammate you can choose the Peugeot. Let me know when you're ready 👍
The poll is over and we have 80% votes for Heavy Damage
so everyone be very careful tomorrow!! (me too

I think that the two BMWs guys are catchable but they are so good in driving that they don't make mistakes. That's the thing, in Monza I was following them but then I ended up in the sand and I lost contact sadly. Almost everyone made some mistakes here and then on the track. Tissimo and Dany_CL are very good and they don't make mistakes even when fighting among themselves.

My latest tune its awesome though.. Extremely stable. Full throttle out of parabolica with less then half tires @ 680hp/690pp.
Its how I managed the victory.. Dany got loose coming out of parabolica causing him to slow a bit and I got a run to the line.
I will add it to my spreadsheet tonight or tomorrow for the tunes thread as well as update my other tunes.

Personally, having driven the BMW in a league before (granted it had homoligated specs rather than pp) my feeling is that tyre wear and drive-ability are the biggest differentiators in LMP cars. It just so happens that, again, in my opinion, the LMR is among the kindest cars to its tyres. This is partially due to the nice, smooth power band and overall weight and weight distribution.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the characteristics cars fit the tracks differently. A car that is rubbish on one track may be golden on another. There are various other tricks and nuances that bring performance but between tuning and skill all things are more or less equal over a season races at different tracks.

One idea pertaining to performance balancing that I would like to throw out to the group is as follows... granted with heavy damage performance should level out a bit over the course of a season, in any case here it goes:
As a way of balancing the field perhaps we could...
a.) make the podium from the previous race start on medium race tyres.
b.)subtract 4 pp from each of the top half of the field from the previous race.
or
c.) some other derivative of selection (b.) using previous race finish placement combined with a subtraction of pp to balance the field. (hopefully in a way that isnt too hard to verify or administer)
Just food for thought so don't get mad at me.... I just want everyone to have fun, and its no fun coming in last every week... Holla back if you guys want to do this, if not, cool with me. cheers dudes, see u tomorrow!

I'll be there although I haven't had any practice as of yet as it's my first week back at uni this week, might be irrelevant if my connection fails again lol. I'll try and arrive earlier this time.
