AC IMSA/WEC Multiclass @ Watkins Glen - Monday 15 April 2019

[RobertR1]

Just a quick 'thank you' to the guys on the server tonight It was a lesson and education for me, never having done a mixed class race.

The staying on line thing for GT2 is spot on, mainly 'cos it's hard to tell the difference of someone accidentally running wide in a corner or they're letting you through.

I think LMP could end being my second love to GT3 ...although whichever setting I have for power delivery/recovery doesn't make a blind bit of difference to my lap times

haha it's gonna be a weird race. Never had someone come up on me that quick before. I clearly did not handle it well lol!

 

[Medilloni]

It should make a lot of difference John?

That's what I thought Craig, so ran a good few laps without using it at all, best lap was only 1.2 sec slower which seems very odd Tried every option tonight, the only thing that changed was where/when you use it - but the brakes felt 'different' in some modes, which I guess is 'cos brakes are affected by harvesting.

There seems to be much more boost available with the Toyota, and it felt really 'racey' but I just can't get the lap time/race pace out of it

Well I am no expert in those cars, although I like driving them, I am sure I am not driving them properly. To get the best out of them I think you need to know exactly what you are doing ..joelk was the best driver I know in them ..his favorite was the Porsche. Sadly can not use it against the other two, it is just to darn fast and to bop it correctly would upset the balance. The Porsche will be used on it on the following week.

Great news Craig, these cars are massively addictive, sign me up already!

Well, that’s 25 people so far, i would say, thats a good positive result.

I don’t think it would work so well at Zandvoort.

No it certainly would not ..I could go to 43 with this track, but certainly would not want to go any further than 28

 

[Björn Johansson]

Got some more practise time, took the LMP1 for a ride
Is it possible to change for that class? if so the Audi for me.

No no no. I thought we were going to fight tomorrow

You get a checksum error when you do not have (A) all the required cars or (B) you have the wrong track version

 

[pattikins]

No no no. I thought we were going to fight tomorrow

If you desperately want to 'fight' Björn Johansson I don't mind swapping places.

 

[Faceplant]

Just did laps in the Ferrari alongside a handful of LMP1's and they were flying!

 

[Øyvind Andersen]

You get a checksum error when you do not have (A) all the required cars or (B) you have the wrong track version

So I have to have all the cars that will be installed?
I thought I had, but should check it out
I have downloaded the path from your link so that it is correct

 

[Øyvind Andersen]

It looks like I have all the cars and the right track

With my personal testing I found a BOP between 150kg to 200kg the best with the caveat that 150kg will be slightly faster and 200 Kg slightly slower but will need less pitstop so in a short race like this it wouldn't matter. If URD could pull their finger out and finish the of mod that would be appreciated.
Maybe a special Le Mans event in June

I had this error, make sure you have the fully updated version of the track, I was running an older version.

 

[Chris Down]

I'll actually go in the RSR. Thanks!
