A big congrats to Ade,Matt and Paulo for being the top finishers. I had a wonderful battle with Paulo through most of the race. Very fast,smooth and consistent mate Wink  I had some lag related frame rate issues around lap 3. Got very bad at one point so Paulo very sorry if I got in your way at all. I was just trying to keep her on the track and not crash(I did hit the wall a bit). Then after about 1/4 lap it cleared up and I was on my way again. Then I screwed up in the pits in 2 ways. Forgot to setup not to fix the small damage on the front wing/fender. Then not taking enough fuel because I was going off the fuel gauge(no XD on this install) which was right on half full at the halfway point so I put just a couple of gallons in it. Apparently it is optimistic gauge. Or maybe like so many real cars the last half tank of fuel on the gauge always seems to go down faster then the first half. So maybe it is a true Sim Undecided Either way I had a great time racing with all of you fellas again Cheesy. The mixing of GTLDK and UKGTL has truly been a great success Grin

Exactly the same that happened to me with the fuel gauge Navin, when I had pit I add only fuel for more 5 laps which I thought would be enough for the half fuel I had at the time.  Roll Eyes

Anyway, this time my strategy was not so good as previous races.
For the first laps I was trying to pressure Marco, but then I remembered my usual strategy and stopped to drive near the limits to safe fuel and tires. Navin was always close to me and I believe he was at the very same strategy, because when our gap spread a bit he closed fast on me again, but never tried to overtook me, unless on the minor mistakes I have done. On the other hand, I was doing the same when Navin was ahead of me, stay close, waiting for a mistake but never triyng to overtake. I must say that Navin gave me many confidence for driving close without any danger, behind or ahead. Very good driving, perfect lines and fair duel. Not easy on these 935 rear tires eaters.  Smiley

Things began to going better when the gap for ADE and Matt were increasing and Marco got his pit stop on lap 17. I thought he would stop one more time and as the pit lane at W.G. is huge would be enough to get him on last two laps (well, at least if I wouldn't done the fuel mistake on my first stop)  Tongue
But indeed it was what I thought at the time. Unfortunately Marco got a disconnection and my doubts remains.
All in all, was a very pleasent race night always with full atention at Navin. Great race!

Congrats ADE and Matt and ofcourse Navin for the great driving and work, he could finish at the podium aswell, I was lucky this time. Well done to all finishers.

I hope in future, GTL races have also pit stops strategy, undoubtadly adds more real feel and interest to the race. Well done Tony.  Cheesy

Cheers

A good race indeed. Seems there is some imbalance with the 935 and Turbonutterbeemer for either size of fuel tank
or consumption, or both. I went to pit at the end of Lap 18 with the red low fuel on and the blue pit light flashing
yet the 935s had almost half a tank left, Tony seems to have got the race lenght just right if it forces everyone
in the turbo cars to make a stop, though a 935 stop at less than half a tank is a good deal less time than the CSL time
to fill up completely. I now understand why Ade jumped me so much in the stops.
maybe the 935s are immune to the 2x fuel? something odd there for sure.

Your not wrong. One of the turbo's has a greater fuel capacity and the races were set up to force both types to pit at least once.

Dijon plays host to the final round of this marmite series.

And with three drivers and three teams hotly contesting the podium places their going to be as keen a mustard to get this one underway.

Tuesday 18th May is the date of the final round of REPLI-race, due to our GTL 4th Birthday event on the 4th May. Hope you will all join us for some cake and racing.

Tony,

Are we allowed to use our custom skins in the GTL series?

Thanks GT, for not letting me all alone with the stock 911 nut being lapped by these monsters is quite a thrill.

Yes you are. See Note 3 of the Announcement. However there will always be someone who gets errors cos they haven't downloaded the skin pack so generally we haven't been using it. Most drivers have been using the turbo mods hence no use of team skins.

With only one more race to go in the series it seems hardly worthwhile to make an issue of it now.

You're quite right, no fuss.
Just wanted to know if I missed something since I was away from GTL.  angel
