Title: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: SRW on November 22, 2017, 10:34:02 PM +0000 Hi All,
My next Sunday night AC event will be LMP1's at Daytona Roadcourse on 17/12/17 I am planning on using the Audi & Toyota's that we used at the recent Lemans race. I haven't decided whether to make it a sprint or pitstop/mini enduro yet (depends on numbers). If you are interested in taking part please add your name to this thread List so far: SRW GoldTop nfsw55 Spanner Bob Ceolmor Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: SRW on December 05, 2017, 08:30:01 PM +0000 Less than two weeks to go, who is interested?
If its going to be a small grid I will reduce the race length to a 30 min sprint Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: goldtop on December 05, 2017, 10:29:14 PM +0000 I'm in :)

Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: goldtop on December 06, 2017, 01:12:11 PM +0000 Just realised this is AC :oops:
Did a very quick test of the LMP1s on default setups (at Monza Jr because it's simple) and even the Audi and Toyota are too far apart to compete with each other imo. 2015 Porsche seems a bit closer to the Audi but top speed will probably make it too quick at Daytona.....but what do I know, this is AC. Monza Jr Times: Porsche 2016: 42.566 Porsche 2015: 43.498 Audi: 43.817 Toyota: 44.732 Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event.

At the last LMP1 race we did (Lemans) we used the Audi and Toyota after the general consensus was that they where quite close in performance. As it is only a one off fun race I am going to use the same choice, if we decide to do a series in these cars I might do a bit more testing to get a better idea of the situation. Good to see you entering out on track again on a Sunday night, if your not careful you will become a regular again! Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: Jeffrey on December 06, 2017, 09:45:04 PM +0000 I don't have a race at core, so I might be interested. Depends on how I enjoy the car and track.
Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: nfsw55 on December 06, 2017, 11:08:28 PM +0000 Audi against Toyota is the closest you can get with LMP1 cars in AC. Both are from the same year and drove against each other irl. Just did a quick search and according to RSRLiveTiming the average laptime from the ten fastest laps on Monza (comparable characteristics to Daytona) is 1:34.784 for the Audi and 1:34.623 for the Toyota. The 2015 Porsche is 2,5 seconds faster, the 2016 model nearly 4 seconds.

Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: SRW on December 09, 2017, 12:10:57 AM +0000 I have put a Poll up to gauge interest in the race format
Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: Ceolmor on December 09, 2017, 09:04:26 AM +0000 Hi all
I'm an AC driver who has just registered here. I been looking for a group that do not constantly race in either road cars or GT3, so this might be the place for me. So I'd like to book a place in this event please. [Toyota] Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: SRW on December 09, 2017, 09:33:14 AM +0000 Hi Ceolmor,
Welcome, I have added your name to the entry list. Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: SRW on December 11, 2017, 11:25:12 PM +0000 I will be posting the race details tomorrow night
Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: ChrisR on December 12, 2017, 09:53:28 AM +0000 Ill join.. nothing else to do :)
Ill let you know which car tonight. Title: Re: 17/12/17 Special Event. Assetto Corsa LMP1 @ Daytona Roadcourse Post by: SRW on December 12, 2017, 10:09:23 PM +0000 Running out of time tonight so it may be tomorrow night before I get the race announcement done.
The race format poll has finished, 5-0 in favour of a mini enduro. So 40 mins with a pitstop it is! I will work out the fuel multiplier to ensure we need a fuel top up to complete the race.
