[Sander Hogendoorn]

But these are pretty quick average times (to my opinion). Anyone want to spare a ghost-file to see the driving lines in the Audi-S Chicane?
At this moment I'm still at work, so no practicing for me before tonight. Are there any guys on Teamspeak tonight or?

I'm about to upload a lap. Best so far is 1:13.949 with fuel for 25 laps.

 

[Richard Bunschoten]

i'd rather see a motec log file of the lap , that way i can really see where i'm losing time.

 

[Dave Stephenson]

sorry mathew i wasnt ignoring you, had my head stuck in motec.

patrick has posted a setup above you could try. im only just doing mine now so cant offer any advice just yet . and then ill probably be wrong.

 

[Simon Trendell]

seems i wont be driving the audi after all. ill get back to on what i will be driving.

It starts from this event so it doesn't include Donington You can use the Audi but not for another 5 events once you do

[Richard Bunschoten]

Thanx Sander , reminds me to drive clean and hit those apexes , i tend to drive to fast and follow a wrong line .

 

[Sander Hogendoorn]

Welcome

The key is to keep it tight in the corners and don't miss apexes, especially in the Audi S.

 

[DeeezNutz]

Count me in. Not sure yet if i have to work this night, but then i'll let you know in time. (don't want to miss this one)

 

[Tim Hogendoorn]

I'm in.

 

[Torbjorn Lennartsson]

Hi all.
made some calculations? 50 liter fuel 57 laps
is that korrekt?think you need 64 liter to finish the race.

Totte


anyone know iff you need to change tires on ore two times

 

[Truls Flatland]

Lovely, two servers! Sign me up please.

I came to 0.89 ltr per lap? 63 laps? All are calculations based on my current race time of 1:15:5 per lap and the 80 minutes duration of the race.

I suggest one stop. What do the others do?

 

[Keith Peppiatt]

yes please - pop me down. been busy working on videos for NGP today so will be a nice change to race!

Hmm after watching that I feel like the benchmark of suck lolz

Well it's my first race in the Mini's and my first within RD. So just a finish would be good, but long race and anything can happen I guess..

I was in the server last night trying to get a custom with it all. was getting 1.15s, But as for pit strats I don't have a clue..

But looking forward to it

 

[Sander Hogendoorn]

The race will be about 63/64 laps indeed.

1 pitstop is needed, if you don't pit you'll most likely get your front tyres burned

Right rear tire seems to do ok and might not need to change.

 

[Eric Soeters]

Right rear is also not getting any heat in my setup. I will see what the other setups do. They are not above 63 degrees... Others are 80+

 

[Muty]

Happy new year guys.

Sign me up with the Leon please

Reserve Procedure

From this event you must now join within the first 30 minutes of practice otherwise your spot will be given to any reserves on the list. Remember joining at the start of practice and returning later in practice is fine.

As i posted before, i usually - almost all the times - am able to join the server, just before practice ends, which means at 19.55, or even later.
In my case i just can't sign to these events?
I can't join within first 30 minutes because i leave work after 19.00 and those 30 minutes i spend driving back to home. Go to a "fast" dinner with family (sometimes wife is finishing dinner and i must wait a bit) and then fun is alright. IMHO i must say again why doesn't we short the practice session to 30 minutes? Like this all even could start at 20.00 (please don't forget the people who works away from home).
Most events are posted several days before the race, everybody has plenty of time to practice.

What i mean is, i spend all day from Monday to Saturday out, working,
arrive home after 19.30, it's perfectly normal that family wants to dinner and get some attention from me at least for 20-25 minutes. Because after that i have a 80 minutes race plus practice plus qualify plus 10 (exaggerated) warmup minutes (a smoke and a pee don't take more than 5):laugh2:

 

[Ben Buitendijk]

sign me up on the bottom of the server 2 list please.

I really want to race, but I am not yet 100% sure I can be there...

 

[Simon Trendell]

I can see you point, but this is a long event, ending usually at 21.45. Maybe not ending as late as some of the endurance events hence the earlier start time.

I always set a longer practice as it gets people on the track with 20 + others and to get used to traffic on the track as well as learning the track. While the events are posted a fair bit in advance, I'm sure quite a few people don't do more than 3 laps before the event.

I hope that people can see why, these events can have a long reserve list and if someone has connection issues they can lose their spot to a late joiner, when they've been practising on track for an hour. Some way I need to prevent this.

I could extend practice to 20.15 but no joining after 20.00 except for any reserves. Anything would need to be decided pretty quickly as the servers will need to be setup soon.
