ACC The Epic Endurance Race with GT3s in Spa - 13th April (Teams welcome)

[mklengel]

Description

This race lasts 144 minutes, but with a time scale of 5 it feels like the real 12h race.
Teams are welcome but you can drive as a solo driver also.

The race duration gives a lot of room for different strategies.
May - perhaps - the slowest driver/team win

• 144 minute GT3 race
• 5 am in-game race start
• Time scale 5
• Short formation lap - stay in the green marker

Should just work as it normally does mate. Driver change won't be required but 2 stops is looking mandatory

Perfecto !

 

[mklengel]

Perfecto !

Hi Jay, I'm setting you up as a solo driver, no problem.

 

[SwannyUK]

Plot twist: Team Lego makes an astonishing return

@mklengel I believe that was referring to my old team Lego McLaren I ran, not that Nasos wants to be team lego (could be wrong though lol)

We are going with Apex Legends
@Trox - @SwannyUK

 

[Antonpiou]

Nah, for now I'll be Porsche Neptune Team

Thinking about solo with the M4 Not sure yet.

So you are in

 

[RicardoJorge92]

Consider me in! Let's see how the signups go to decide if I join someone or go solo.

 

[akephoe]

from the server settings in Post 1, can we expect a static weather? Or will it be a Spa race as we hope for, with unpredictable conditions?

 

[SwannyUK]

With those settings it will be a bit of cloud but possibility of a change in conditions which is perfect. With ACC you could set it to mega clouds and a higher randomness and still have a dry race. All up to the weather gods

 

[Rich Green]

144 mins you say? I’ll give it a go Car to be decided, solo please.

Hi Jordan, is this his real name?

Hello Michael,

Yes it is, no idea which nickname he'll choose on the website.
I think he will also have to change his name in-game too.
