Server is up, RACEDEPARTMENT.COM Fun

If we don't get enough for Cat n Mouse, I'm still up for some no-rules racing around here if you all are?

Enzo Fazzi · Dec 24, 2014

@Andrew James Oh uh, only race 1 for me by the way.

Guus · Dec 24, 2014

yes please

Sri Sri · Dec 24, 2014

We can still do cat n mouse, except there won't be a team...that is, mice start first, cats after 30 secs...whoever crosses first is the winner

Mice wouldn't stand a chance, the speed difference is significant. We'll do some short Opala races, no rules, and V8 races no rules until we get say, 6 people when we can try 2 teams of 3.

Hi,

Two quick questions that I think I know the answer to but just want to double check,
1. Don't think we have an answer for this one but are we starting the race on the same tyre compound/set as we qualify on?
2. I assume we have to start with the full race distance worth of fuel onboard? Has anyone any experience to show about this part. For example how accurate is the setup figure? Worth adding a few laps just to make sure?

Thanks,
Andrew.

1. Don't remember how that works sorry; try a short single player race and see what happens?
2. Yes, take all the fuel with you that you need, you can not add fuel during the race. The in game fuel figure is usually not quite accurate, I find it over estimates what you need. I use rfdynhud which has a fuel calculator based on actual consumption of your laps; I probably won't be doing the race but I am sure others will be able to give you a good fuel amount before the race starts.

1. Not sure.
2. Definitely don't trust it. Do 10 laps with a relative load of fuel that's easy to remember, e.g. 100 litres, and say if you are on 75 litres after 10 completed laps, your usage is ~2.5 litres per lap, and round it up to 2.6. And then you times 2.6 by 72, or however many laps including formation lap if any, which will give you for example 187.2 litres. Normally I would take 187 litres then.
