I think i am gonna cancel my trip to Six Flags, what a track. :rotfl:
How many laps do you guys think the tires last?

 

[Lewis Fergusson]

2hr endurance race... Don't think we'd have many runners left after 2hrs going around tracks like Porto (my fav) Macau or Pau :lol:

Next enduro HAS to be around Macau. Pls?

 

[Chris Rogerson]

Sorry James, foolish was the wrong word to use. More 'brave/foolhardy'. But as they aren't matched up with the others as they were I don't think they should be used.

The GTS cars are quicker and more lively/fragile, but it depends who drives them of course :wink:

Anyway besides all this, only 7 people finished the last enduro on an easy track like Paul Ricard, I would be surprised if more than 3 finish this event at Nords.

(Yes thats another pop at the Nords.....Hate it Hate i...)

 

[Chris Rogerson]

I'll take a spot please if there are any dropouts...if not I'll do what I usually do and just loiter with intent in TS begging for a spot until Andrew gives in.

 

[Bart Snijders]

How many laps do you guys think the tires last?

just did a practice run and got the tyres are worn warning in lap 28 but that was with a full tank...

 

[David Buxton]

Looks like you'll be loitering

After reading Gary's post I watched the replay of the start of the second race and only now I realised what a mayhem I caused. First I collided with Nicholas (physics were a bit odd there) who then hit Gary and like he said, I also managed to hit Yves before Gary collected him. It sounds mad that I never became aware of any of this until now and it's unfortunate. It's a bit too late to notice things like that now but I hope it's not too late for an apology and hopefully I'm still able to participate in upcoming events as I'm really enjoying this community.

What times were you guys running?

The pole position was taken with a 1.51'7 lap and the fastest lap of the races was a 1.52'4.

 

[Reik Major]

Could you plz sign me up as a "may be" atm?

I'm gonna ask my GF as soon as possible, if i have time to take place :rotfl:. Hope to confirm very soon.

May be i can make my brother Nico Major to join in here too!

[Dennis Phelan]

Thanks Eric and RD!
Almost a good thing the grid wasn't full, these cars take up quite a bit of roadspace, hopping all over!

I pulled out a PB for Q, still way off the pace.

Race 1 was fun, I didn't have the tires wear as much as they had in practice runs. I bumped Abdul on the back straight and that set me back, sorry Abdul. Willie thought he bumped me on lap 4 and he slowed to let me back, replay shows he didn't have to do that. I owe you one Willie! Looks like a few dropped out to wait for race 2 and a better result? It seems that damage to these cars really kills lap times.

Race 2 a mixup in turn one a few laps in slowed me enough that I thought fixing the damage would make running out the race more fun. Coming out of the pit I think I upset Michel in T1, sorry if I did, I did watch the two of you come up. Next lap I put the nose into a barrier all by myself and in doing that I totally secured last place. Abdul and Michel provided some relief as they came up and fell back, I never saw so many blue flags!

Congrat's to all the fast guys! As Steve said, "very gentlemanly" out there.

 

[Ollie Chamberlain]

i`ll bosh one out! (I`m in)

 

[Willie Watt]

Thnx for the race last night guys, broke a duck for me 2 points finishes in two races. and lonly 1 lap down in each:rotfl:

I'd not like these in the last race we had (Dijon-prennais) blowing up on both races. I'd practiced and never managed less than a 1:18 so when I'd seen that folks were running 1:10's considered not even joining. I'm glad that I did.

Was late in practice (as I was finishing of some skins) so only ran 4 or so laps b4 quali. "Borrowed" Keith's test set-up, adjusted steering lock and added a little longer 6th gear.

Managed a 1:14 or 1:15 on quali fuel qualified third to last.

Race 1 managed to balance revs and clutch and got a good start until the change to 2nd when I got a tank slapper on recovered reasonably quickly and got back in the race for the hairpin. Threaded my way through the Chaos there and found myself running 8th (quick smoemone get me some oxygen). Managed to build good pace over the next few laps making few mistakes and catching Denis who was just in front. On third last turn, he got a little out of shape and I thought that he was going to lose it so took a chance and dived down the inside just as he gathered it together. I thought that i bumped his rear quarter sending him on a quite spectacular slide so stopped to let him by. With retirements and engine blow ups which I miraculaousy avoided I finally finished 6 with race times consistently in the 1:14's.

Race 2, started from the second row of the grid (on full oxygen by now) Chris's jump start spooked me and i lost momentum off the start but managed to get back to 3rd after the hairpin. (a clear case of slowly there on the first lap to reap benefits) only to overcook it on the exit and needed to back out to recover. Other than a very hot front left for most of the race and having to let Keith and Tyler by was fairly happy with an 8th place finish. Not to forget the stop go for the third cut which was really my second as the one it wrned me about as my second was as a result of a bit of a grphics faulire.

Imagine it with 25 of these beasts!!

Positives no engine blow ups and two points finishes. thanks guys, ERic and RD

 

[Yves Larose]

with the permission from Eric i have changed the track choice as the track picked at the start was a little bit too difficult to run with the R8 so i picked a track that people know and i think that it will be easier for everybody to enjoy their racing time i will also be in the server 1 hour before the start of the event to provide tips on how to drive and setup the car for everyone that will want my help.

Just put in few laps; I'm loving the track, it should be epic on Friday - 78 laps by my dodgy calculations. I'm doing high 1:30s in practice with around 26 ltrs, anyone else got any times yet? It feels like I'm quite fast but I know there's much room for improvement.

What?????? High 1:30's. Im doing low 1:32's. Not getting this track yet. And set up feels good but needs improving slightly. Here it is if anyone wants it:

 

[Eric. K]

I will also put the server up early on for anyone to practice on.

 

[Eric. K]

Can you use skins from other people. Or do you have to make him yourself?

If they are posted in some public domain then of course you can use it
