Fuel limit of the URD PX1 cars

Hi

I was racing with the URD Shiro PX1 at Le Mans last night & found that I could only drive for 6-7 laps before I had to refuel.

Is this about right or is my setup wrong?

Thx

I run the latest released Oreca 07 at the LeMans 2017 track and get 9 laps per tank. The real life standard is around 13, according to info on various web pages. I asked about this elsewhere and was told a lot of mod tracks don't do fuel usage properly. I don't know; that's just what I've seen.

mod tracks don't do fuel usage properly.

Fuel usage calculation in the AIW is for the estimated laps in the setup menu. It is indeed often forgotten to let dev mode calculate this at the end of the AIW creation or recalculated after some AIW tweaks. AI might pit to early or to late.

But it has nothing to do with actual fuel usage of the human driver.

Fuel mixture, engine mapping and your right foot has a big influence on fuel use. That’s something the game can not predict.

These things are things what real teams are spending hours is the simulator for.
