I managed to drive without crashing at night, so I would've gone with keeping the last format, but never mind.

Yeah same here, but imagine it with other cars around, changing fuel and tire conditions. If only the headlights were a little bit better or Le Mans had some light itself.

I just practiced a few laps at night. We have no high beams! Those lights are fine for street use but not for racing. I've participated in two twenty four hour motorcycle races, been in the saddle for a good amount of night racing and I remember vision being better than that with fewer lights.

I'd guess that if the headlights had high beams and could throw off light that could reflect off the trees etc it would be a different story and we would probably run out of computing power. Reiza has some work to do on night driving.

Unfortunately need to sign out. Other commitments have come up.

I have mixed feelings. The fact is, we see less than an horror game where you only have a torch and low batteries. As @Nox said, the Porsche section is almost impossible to get through. On the other hand, racing at night is something that we should do! Maybe for another event? Anyways, I'll race no matter what. If it's "day only" maybe we could start with a rising sun and end with the sunset? Dawn to dusk!

[Franklin Stegink]

Sign me in with the Porsche @Nox

 

[Dennis Phelan]

Le Mans never disappoints, good fun even with all the bumper to barrier contact and all the times slogging through the sand. Enzo and others were kind enough to give me low wing setups but I thought them to be too risky so stuck with a plain Jane option.

My race with Dean Solomon covered a lot of ground, too many "errors" on my part to get ahead and stay there but it was fun trying.

 

[bömii]

i'd like to do sunday events. someone will need to teach me all the server stuff, havent done anything like that

 

[JeffL]

Maybe I can a beat this Paul Ricard guy, sign me up

 

[Chark]

Awesome event! I had a blast around this (very particular) track. Nice battles along the way. I'd love to see more "special" events, like this one or next week's one. Congrats to all drivers! Enjoy Les 24 heures du Mans this weekend, and see you next time.

P.S.: I must apologize to @SandroX about the incident at the chicane. I didn't pay enough attention that I was at a higher speed (due to the draft) and I braked a bit late... I tried to downshift early to slow down faster, but it made me spin. Sorry mate.
