Imola

Imola (officially known as the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari) will forever be tainted by the tragedies of 1994 which prompted major revisions to its layout but, despite this, it remains one of the most atmospheric and challenging circuits in Europe.

A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you must check to see that its clear before you re enter the track. Always try to re-enter the track parallel to the racing line. Stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car.

When joining the track from the pits, remain inside the white line and stay off the racing line until you are up to speed.

During qualification, do not race on your out lap, let other drivers by.


Golden Rule

1. If you hit somebody, sending them off the track and carry on like nothing happened, you take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Instead, you should always wait for the affected drivers, and that way you can be 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. You will get 2 warnings before a 5 second penalty for exceeding track limits to your advantage. Any warnings/penalties are displayed in the chat window at the end of each lap

Note: Please use your full real name in Discord and in game. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify who you are.

Welcome Dom!

If anyone is having performance issue with this car you can disable the wobby aerials in extention config with the car's folder. Can post more details if anyone is stuck. Mainly affects VR users I believe!

Good to be back! Sunday races are the only one I can make it to here, unfortunately.
As for the wobbly antennas, I just did a few practice laps (in VR) and everything seemed to be working fine.

Looking forward to the race!

Cool seeing these cars at Imola. First time here I believe.

Great video, what is the difference between this LMP2 and a Hyper car ?

 

[The Almighty Snark]

Performance mostly, but the hypercars are partial electric and have quite complicated systems. The LMP2/3 classes are split between about 2 manufacturers and more of a budget approach to endurance racing compared to the hypercars, but more expensive then GT3.

 

[H_Belane]

Great car, and Imola is always worth a trip.

 

[Interslice]

Gorgeous lap.

No BOP in LMP2 They lean more towards a spec series. You can only get a car off a few manufacturers such as dallara and oreca. There is a cap on the sale price of 500k not including engine and a few bits. The hyoercars are more of a design free for all with an added ballast for BOP.

 

[Kek700]

I was just curious what the performance difference was between the older lmp2 and new hyper cars. I know that lmp1 cars are much more “overall” more powerful than a hyper car.
I have not found any information on hyper cars when I looked it, other than a lot of waffle. It does not actually give any meaningful specifications. Maybe I looked in the wrong place, likely.

Not sure Ernie. I guess we'll know by the laptimes when they go to Spa next month.

Takes a minute to get up to speed with the speed of this car lol, but it's a nice drive around here. Should be good racing.

Brian, any chance you could add this skin to the car set? We have rexy for the porsche, just need spike for the lmp2 No problem if its not possible before tomorrows race.

Yeah, looking forward to this one. I feel like there is a big piece of the jigsaw I'm missing to unlock the speed of this car/track combo, as I'm a fair bit off the pace. I have really enjoyed practicing for it though. The immersion levels are very high as it's such a busy track int his car.

I can sit on the sofa for the next 6 hours watching the WEC under the guise of practice/research, right?

It's what I am doing

 

[Alfred Wayne]

It's not WEC, but here's an ELMS track skin for imola if anyone wants

Kerbs seem to be more inline with what was on track today

After "studying" the WEC race, I'm in the mood for some prototype action
