Grats guys, 2nd place with 2 cars just behind and a couple more in the same lap as well, so well kept Spanner

Well done Paul on finally taking what's 9th place for us. Good experience with this enduro

Looks like Spanner will have quite a bit of pressure for the last hour, with 1st GT1 away but 3rd to 6th right there behind so no mistakes to be done good going GT1 chaps hope you will get that well deserved 2nd place! Tough luck for us, but the competition in LMP1 was amazing. The guy I was dicing with yesterday (Angelo Pedro) has done 3 stints in the current LMP1 leading team glad to have been at his pace then.

Really? haha nice, yeah I had lots of action for such a long race. I thought drivers were supposed not to defend/battle any position, but I had a couple of defenders in front of me


So, I started in 9th and taking it easy on the opening laps. Gained 2 positions with mistakes and I overtook another car, was up to 6th. Then I started to get more excited and spun it in the last corner lol down to 9th again.

From then on I only did a few small mistakes, but I think me pace was reasonably consistant in the 44's (I could only hit a 43 in the final stint! I think the higher temperatures were the reason). In the pits though I generally gained time on the others. After watching the leader (Legoff I think, very fast that guy, he had lapped me) retire, I was in 5th and chasing Pedro, who I had a great battle with throughout the whole race. In the last pitstop I jumped him and another driver, from 5th to 3rd. BUT Pedro ended up passing me again so I finished in 4th just behind 3rd.

A shame that Mike isn't there for the 2nd stint

Hope you had a good run in the GT1 MJ good luck to all of you in your stint, lets go for it

That went reasonably well for me - a 1:41.7 PB by 2 tenths before quali, but we're still starting 9th out of 13 can't believe that 1:40.8 by the fastest Acura. Well done Jon

Anyway I'm really looking forward to the race. Thanks Paul for being there during most quali a bit of chat on TS during the race should make it less exhausting - even though I can't understand almost half the things being said there

Can we be in the same TS channel in the race though, as we have one channel for each team...

Yeah I will come to TS around 9pm UK and drive a little later till 10pm.

Just execute the sync tool which you used to install the mod. There are some updates (skinpack, pit limit speed change I think, etc) so by running the sync thing you'll have it all ready

Mark, make sure you got "Mark Jonzo" in this space:



I don't think you can have a problem if this is correctly filled and you race ingame as Mark Jonzo like yesterday... just make sure this is correct and that you do 3 consecutive laps... we need this sorted today I think.

Just to make sure: when we are finishing our stint, do we have to give the 'GO' signal to our teammate at the moment we are crossing the line to finish the race right? Sounds obvious but just making sure, as there is no instructions for the driver who gives the signal.

And out of interest, how does the Live video work, as drivers will be in 2 servers, are there 2 TV channels or can they switch view between the 2 servers? Don't know how this works at all.

MJ while I was on server I saw you doing stints of only 2 flying laps, never saw you completing 3 consecutive laps, only once but one of the three laps was well over the 2 mintues and the average wasn't enough. Try to set 3 consecutive laps on 1:55-1:56

Lovely to see 24 drivers on track practicing I'm there for a few race laps practice

lol that was a little bit short Legzy, I reckon it's gonna be 101 or 102 laps for 3 hours.

About fuel: according to my test, from 16L to 90L on tank the laptime increases around 1.8 seconds. 20 lit should make a 0.5 sec difference, you are just getting faster Legzy

Doing some quick calculations, I found that its better to start the race with the fuel you need instead of the full tank, as you lose half the time adding fuel in pits than lapping slower with more fuel. I will be splitting my race in 26-lap stints (last one shorter according to the remaining time) and starting with 81L I think. BUT surely doing an extra stop won't be a benefit.

I'd need to have the last part of 1st session if its ok. If I can be on track from around 21:30 (or a little earlier if noone is in) to 22:00 UK I'll try to secure a low 42 and set my target on a high 1:41. Those 1:40's I see in FP2 and FP3 can't be possible in the Acura surely?

But yeah I'd suggest we all join TS before we get on server just to make sure we don't break the 1-car-only rule, or we'd have to start from the back.

Cheers mate will have a look

Hi guys, I was having a look at some old threads in the UKGTR section and I saw a post where H@L mentioned a software for fixing track cuts, etc. in the AIW track file. Here is the thread where I saw it https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=7457.0

Does anyone have this software, or a link for it? As I'm running a league in GC I think this software could be interesting for me especially as we attempt to use Melbourne this season!

Thanks in advance, or bad luck if its not available

PS: knowing that a standard tracks pack was released here from the very beginning (with UKGTR Donington, UKGTR Magny, UKGTR Spa, etc), the creators may let us know if they used this software? Cheers

Cheers Legzy, that hour will suit me better - Saturday night fun/drinking/partying now available although I will finish the stint at 6pm my hour and I have another race at 7pm LOL

Is anyone planning to do a 'group practice' with our 2 teams, like meeting one evening and the most we can join server & TS and practice together? I haven't met any of you on TS yet I think - remember I'm the one you need to speak slower to
