AC Porsche GT3 Cup @ Laguna Seca - Mon 08 July 2019

Haha, I've actually never raced the cup car, only the GT3 but hopefully the skills are transferable

Same here Han, I'll keep you company! Never got my head round the physics of this car, so have usually avoided it, like the plague

I know what you mean, John. Last time I tried the RSR (MultiClass event Mugello) I was even faster with the 911GT3 so I switched class then.

In my experience, they are not because the balance is totally different but you're more skilled so..

@Medilloni , @Spilskinanka . Sorry guys, I got the cars mistaken. I thought it was the RSR but it's the GT3 2017. So please ignore my previous comments. I haven't driven this car yet. I hope I can use much of the setup of the 2016 version.

This will be a hard one for me. Difficult track, not my favorite car, skilled drivers and little time to practice. Well, someone has to finish last! Please sign me up, Craig.

@Craig Dunkley ,just to be sure: the race will be 30 minutes, not 40?

Glad you asked Han, I thought it was 40 mins! 30 mins is too short for me to recover from multiple offs

Actually It makes no difference to me ..I reduced it because of the hot weather..but if drivers prefer 40 minutes it is fine

Only imo Craig, 40 mins is a decent length of race time (or as with other events, 2 x20mins). Much prefer to be racing longer than the peripheral stuff. A bit like too much foreplay, er, so a 'friend' told me

30 mins race time isn't very long compared to the time given for practice 'n quali (longer than the race 'n quali combined) - most peeps get practice on their own and on server beforehand, and before 8pm there's usually a good few on the server too.

Oh, and what hot weather ffs?! I race in full Nomex underwear, race suit and helmet for added immersion,honest. But I do stick my undercrackers in the fridge beforehand

Strange driving this car, it's the same, but different. The GT3 car likes this track though so I think this one does too

Meh, not sure if I mentioned....

But, seriously (ish), a bit confused with the lack of setup options for this one

 

[Craig Dunkley]

Please note, race time has been changed to 40 minutes

 

[Spilskinanka]

Honestly it's a good thing there's no massive setups for this, setups on the 911 GT3 were a huge headache so I'm glad this one is just pick up and play

 

[Craig Dunkley]

Setup ..Tariq will do a few changes to it for this track I have no doubt, put it is a bloody good starting point

Not me buddy; Rik Mayall, one of my all time favourite comedians, always puts a smile on my face. My ugly mug would crash Race Department

Yes, really
