Well it is based on spdo setup from 2012's 24 hours of Aston Grand Prix (AS5) that we ended 2nd. That's actually the cargame version so it needs some adjustment for AS6 but that's still a decent base imo. It will need some different arbs, possible aero and also dampers.
I'm posting the set here as anyway I have already sent it to a lot of people on cargame and it appears that some teams competing here already have it.
irl racing teams have some nice screens on which they have all the weather informations and track temperature...Some factory also bring their own system but well, wind going north is still coming from north right?
Well with that wind direction there were a lot of corner that were actually transition between front wind an rear wind (basically every hairpin) so yeah rear grip was terrible in t1 for example.
Well at the end of the day, maybe different teams have won the races but their drivers are still racing as Tomek who won round 1 will be racing for nitor velox, you and Jesse will have a go for ineX and Joonas will drive for CoRe.
Police want to see the video to know how the tracks were limited and if the fact MSC wasn't on a safe track well visible. If not, Mirabel ski station could be judge as responsible of this incident which may change drastically things for insurances...
Tomek I swear you would be faster in Le Mans track that some gentlemen driver that manage to be 30s off pace in LMP2! And LFS is a lot easier than a real car and tracks!
Please don't say that there isn't enough time to test that layout. In real life there is only 2 hrs practise session for an ELMS race and even in Le Mans there is only 12hrs (which is actually not long at alĺgiven the fact you have one car, 3 drivers, 50% rain, 50% night and 7-8red flag) of testing before the race, starting on wednesday. That chicane will not change drastically setups anyway...and there is only one corner to learn.
well to be honest the rush is pretty much done now. If he isn't dead yet and survive the night he should be fine. The only question is will he remember who he is? That would be quite dramatic to be a seven times World Champion, everybody recognizing you and you can't remember what ppl are talking you about.
It will take some times to recover and he may stay quite a long time in coma, only to recover faster
There has been 4 or 5 24hrs races at As5, 6h races in IGTC ans GT1WS...I haven't seen so many crash there. That's a hard corner and you have to do it right that's it.
Anyway I quite like this version.This corner is still technical but another way.you still have to get a good like as now traction on exit is critical. So instead of being an high speed awesome chicane, that is a slow corner which is a safe overtaking opportunity where you struggle for traction on exit. Yesterday we eventually took it 3 wide !
Personally i like both version, the normal one is a bit more dangerous, this one can creates lag tho but in the end both are challenging
Actually Corvette Racing washed his winning car before the end of the race for their two first victories in Le Mans :P That took about a lap in the pit garage though
I'm still thinking that some teams would be faster in FZR in gt2...FZR have never been completely slow Tomek. If you look back in gt2ws in 2012 only spdo and ineX were racing in XRR, everyone else was having FZR and at the end of the day, FZR won at BL1R and SO4 which were the two previous rounds and those car pace were faster than most of the teams this season.
That's actually exactly the contrary of the situation few years ago in MoE everyone in GT2 was racing FZR. Some top teams switched to XRR and suddenly everyone else is switching to XRR and no one is using FZR anymore. Thanks god GT1 is different and in that class you can see that both cars are pretty balanced. Of course XRR is faster at some place (WE1R, BL1R) but FZR is better at SO4 and seems to be better at AS6.
Well Vires has entered a GT1 in first round, and without that last hour SC period it would have won the race with Dennis and Tomek racing (ok 3id got a DC but that's racing, we eventually rolled in last 2laps last race). Vires finished 2nd last season in GT1WS which actually means in front of Dennis's teams, so I don't see why we would be afraid of Dennis. That's also called facts.
Vires GT1 car isn't racing since round 2 simply because the line up which was supposed to be Niki, Matias, Maddee, Sean and James can't race. People have life and sometimes things happens that makes video games secondary. Maddee just moved and setted in his own flat, James is at uni and Matias broke his anckle or something like that. So only original GT2 line up (#54 composed mainly of myself and Adam) can race in last two rounds, #63 being using as a development car at SO and later for my little brother and intre that need some practise while #58 is for those that haven't understood the old Stig Breeding programm as some of those drivers have joined Vires.
And about the level in gt2, yeah it is definitely lower than in 2012 but it is important to note that top teams disappeared exept vires. So in SO we were the only team that matched GT2WS 2012 pace (need to correct tracker avg with traffic) but if you take the other teams average, they have actually improved.
Depend who are the drivers of that teams. If there are newbies that is better they start with GT2 to gain experience and prevent situation where top gt2 are faster than slow gt1.
In the end experienced drivers shouldn't be allowed in gt2. That should actually be like an AM class where line up should include only "AM" drivers and max one "PRO". (i know vires is having an all pro line up but we were supposed to have also a strong gt1 line up)
Yeah Dennis that's racing, and that's definitely something unfair, but at the end of the day, that is also the most addictive drug on earth. Everytime it hurts you you ask some more.
