RRE Season 3 (2016) Race Room Int. Endurance Series - Monza - Feb 7

[Wiltshire Tony]

Looking at the results, there seem to be a few anomalies....the Ford GT isn't recognised in the GT3 class (noticed this in GTR3 champ too). Also Monza doesn't appear to be counted in the CDP driver championship table. Any ideas?

The Ford thing can be fixed if you ask Dave to put a group category against the car. I'll look into the CDP problem.

EDIT: The CDP problem requires a Dave fix too. I cannot get LM2 to understand that Daytona Proto is a class catagory?

Thanks Tudor, I had watched that vid. I thought the fuel was green, as was repair fron and rear damage, I wacked it into a wall pretty hard
and again all they did was change tyres, maybe the fuel was not actually green

That explains how you took so much time out of me in the pitstop. One thing I noticed when I checked my preset that only front tyres was green there so I made sure fuel and both sets of tyres were green in the preset. All I had to do then was move the yellow box down to pit actions confirmed as the AI drove the car in. I then got fuel and tyres as expected.

One thing that worried me lots was what would happen at the end of the service period. When I did my 1st pitstop race in RRE I ensured I knew what keys did Ignition On/Off, Ignition Start and operated the Pit Limiter. When I leave the garage I have to do Ignition On/Ignition Start before I can drive out and wondered if I might need to for the pitstop exit. I didn't, so why are there keys for these as they are not used in game? However it does mean we could use the pit limiter on the rolling starts like we did with GTR2, I found last nights a bit messy as you're not sure whether the guy in front has got to the correct speed or not Does RRE flash the brake lights to show the limiter is on? If not I guess this won't work much better.

I let Dave know about the cars and classes a while back so not sure what went wrong. CDP will soon have others join it in same class so I'll have a think what to call that.......maybe P2

Was really enjoying that one  I was doing quite well, was not quite fast enough to keep up with Greg, but was managing to keep ahead of the
rest of the GT3s and slowly extending the gap. I seem to be able to get the maximum possible pain out of pitstops, if it can go wrong it does  :'(
This time, I made sure that everything was green in the preset, was not convinced about the fuel levels so set it to max which was 29 Gallons
went in for the stop, and hey they were putting in fuel! Yes,, result! err except it seemed they only put in 29 litres....
so was expecting to have to do a splash and dash, ah well, i might be able to keep Pete far enough behind, or worst case we'll have a good
battle in the last few laps.. came round a bend, and got a big "LOW FUEL" warning flash up unexpectedly
Totally lost concentration and went nose first into a wall and killed the engine  game over.
See what goes wrong next time perhaps. I should be hired as a beta tester, if there's a bug Matt will find it 
The results got the order a bit wrong for the quitters as well, I might sort that after a replay watch.
Was thinking maybe the results format is not what you wanted anyway? If you want the points to be by class that could get awkward
might have to run it as two events, but I can't see how we can split the resutls from R3E, maybe Dave (poor overworked Dave ) 
could filter by class? Personally I would leave it as one result, and if you want to score big points you should learn to master the Protos
I don't really care about points so much, I just want a good race.

[Wiltshire Tony]

I think your wrong Matt. Points by class is do-able in LM2, we just need the class classification to be understood by LM2 'cos currently it isn't.

[phspok]

Ok, that might be a useful thing then.

I did wonder what happened to you Matt. I think you were a little faster than me after the pitstops.

I have to say that was one of the most eratic rolling starts I have ever done. I thinks it's best to go round a bit faster and hold that speed. I found myself braking and accelerating most of the time which is very dangerous

[Anty]

Hey Greg

Sorry, I believe that was me that caused the erratic start, I was just trying to keep the field in check. If I get a pole position again I will try and keep the speed about 80. It's difficult with the protos because they just want to be unleashed..

Great race though well done Champ
