Hope it's a quality track then! I'm itching to try the incoming cars as well.

Those releases... Not fitting with my plans Daytona came a bit too late. The LMP3 wasn't popular last time. The M4 GT3 is just another GT3, so that's not biggie. Then there's the IndyCar. Will fit into week 3 here (gives people a bit of time to test it). But that means next should be S397 Endurance, if not there will not be modern multiclass for the whole of February. That's not good.

Ugh!

Ooh Indycars around here
Just please choose a layout without that disgusting final chicane for them.

I really liked the LMP3s. I think it was more the 2-race format that 'did not compute' at my end.
So I'm all for either a multi or single class with LMP3s

You are talking about the one after the hairpin at the end, right?

Too many cars, too few races. Hah!
Have to do some testing next week I understand.

Some Indianapolis Oval after Feb. maybe?

Yes. The vomit-inducing clunky awful slow thing right after a hairpin which you could very easily have a nice run down to turn 1 through, but for some reason we go single-file over some awkward kerbs. Why Buenos Aires put this in many decades ago and have never removed it I'll never know.

Even though 3 out of 4 races in January ended up being on US-tracks, maybe a US Trophy in March ;P
All I know is that 11th March will be DPi/LMP2 and GTE at Sebring. Maybe with LMP1 added if we have good numbers

Oh, there are so many chicanes on this track on the different layouts. We will meet a variety of them during the month. This one will not show up the next couple of weeks though!

Drunk on beer instead of racing!

Have fun, and enjoy tomorrow!

@Dean Maković Absolutely massive sorry, @Shawn Jacobs too if I hit you aswell, I dont know, the replay wasnt saved for some reason.
Anyway, massive sorry Dean, I didnt drop it on braking, well, I did, but after having missed the braking point by 50 meters or so (I braked at the wrong marker) and as a result, piledrived you, ruining your race. Absolutely no excuse, I'm so so sorry, its the most embarrased I've ever been in 20 years of online racing
I fully agree with the drive thru (nice to see live steward) although I didnt get a chance to serve it as my screens froze entering pitlane.
What a nightmare

 

[Xalfy]

I'd like to apologize to the Ferrari I sent off track before the last chicane. Completely misevaluated your speed and mine. Tried to wait for you for 20ish second to give you the position but you stayed in the gravel .

Great time though with Colin behind me, I was really pushing to try to keep you out of range. I was unable to see my tire wear, but it sure wasn't pretty!

See you guys next week

The live stewarding (me) was removing a DT, not giving. It was a DT that Colin got. That's one advantage of being on Discord.

I did remove another DT later in the race, not a Discord-chat. However, when I remove DT's I will check on the replay afterwards, and if the DT was fair and fine (also using log-files) or not.
If the DT was fair, and thus got removed on wrong grounds, then that will be taken on DM - also, it may cause me to not remove penalties in the future.

It's good to be able to remove penalties as the game can give DT/S&G for avoiding collisions by running off the track.

Yeah I've seen you waited there. Yesterday I disabled the auto clutch to race with the Caterham and today I didn't turned on, so I couldn't go on (I've already turn it on again haha). What can I say? I make silly mistakes too, so doesn't matter
