RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room GT3 - Spa - Jan 3

[Wiltshire Tony]

Tyres done up to a point. I need Continental to be added to the tyre manufacturer list. Also the Aquila class needs creating or multigroup racing is going to be messy.

Sorry guys, decided in the end the race was too long for me and too late (I'm one hour ahead  ). Hope you had a good one.

I'll have a re-think about the timing for these events although it's hard/impossible to please everyone especially with different time zones.

Regards fuel, I wouldn't bother with the safe/risky/whatever options. I calculated the fuel usage per minute for the CDP and pitted with 1 litre remaining (and my crew chief going nuts at me). I added 80 litres at the pitstop and finished the race with 2 or 3 litres spare

I really enjoyed my first ever proper endurance race. Although the multiclass definetely needs a bigger field of drivers. I entered the qualy at the very last minute, I almost lost the event due to some family issues. Enjoyed the brawl with Eckins till he quit, i hope me or my ping didnt give him any issues again, tried to be extra careful.
At the end of the race, I was thinking that mr belowski should add a special (sweary of course) message in crew chief in case himself laps an opponent :p

No, no no issues this time. It was good fun with you running in close company. Tbh i dont think i would have lasted so long on my own.

I relised i hadnt worked out the pit menu! So you have to choose the pit preset, which seemed too sensitive and had to wait for it to randomly pick the right one, but also to then select the choices for ttres and fuel with them going green and then hit the confirm button

I was a bit sceptial with 3 classes, the length, but it sounded like we had 3 or 4 in each class, shame about the turn out. 90mins is tough to justify though. Didnt the earlier start time work well? Maybe consider reducing the practise?

Some tweakage to the series, see here.......

Was it just me... The car status boxes were giving my fuel level in litres, but to set the fuel maually in the stop it was stating it in gallons!

I think you've got imperial selected somewhere in your settings. For example is your ride height shown in mm or inches in your setup page?

[spanner]

Err yeah its all imperial! I dont want it to be though but i've not seen any option to change it. You can change the speed display between mph and km/h is it tied to that?

Yes I think so.

Yeah, the start / formation lap craziness was petty much all my fault. not done a manual start for a very long time, and I had 100% forgotten about it, so just went race mode from the green lights Very sorry.

Once the race started, I managed to keep the lead of GT3s, and pull a slight gap to the guy behind me. but I made a mistake and ended up making contact with the barrier after a spin.
I was in a foul mood, and pretty much just rage quit (far from my normal style).
Really should have carried on for the fun of it.

Yet more issues with my GT3 championship in pCars season, makes me want to flee from pCars in it's current state :<

Sorry for the starting confusion!

Grats to class winners, and thanks for hosting the event!
