19th of November Race - MXM hosting @ finalgear/fg

pdanev · November 13th, 2005, 2:18 PM

Next week is FWD GTR time, we never raced that. images/smilies/wink.gif

So classic is not a hard track, but tires should be a big issue here.

Both UF GTR and GTI GTR have very similar WR time, 0.3s difference or so, meaning take whatever feels more like it. UF could be a better choice because of it's smaller size, for people who have issues with the tight chicane.

Setups as usual available on inferno, both in this case made by the same guy, so they should handle more or less the same way.

Practice, and hope to see many of you next weekend!

Game is up:

this race should be a good too. images/smilies/wink.gif

less places to flip over but the chicane is a tiny bit tricky. I've heard that the ufr wears tires out more but i havent confirmed this with testing.

andyhui01 · November 14th, 2005, 6:35 AM

this will need alot of testing because of tire wear... going to do some throughout the week

pdanev · November 14th, 2005, 10:20 AM

As far as I have raced these cars, the uf might be indeed a bit more agressive on the tires. images/smilies/smile.gif

andyhui01 · November 14th, 2005, 10:24 AM

hmm... do you have any idea if the tires would last the whole race?

pdanev · November 14th, 2005, 10:29 AM

Dunno, depends on setup and settings. Didn't do any testing yet so I have no idea. R3s would definitely make it images/smilies/wink.gif

andyhui01 · November 14th, 2005, 10:35 AM

hmm... I have to do some testing as well images/smilies/biggrin.gif

bihus · November 17th, 2005, 12:59 AM

I'll try to join, if I don't go play paintball.

andyhui01 · November 17th, 2005, 2:26 AM

lol... dunno, usually you guys will say like 2 words... I thought mxm and espn got scared by 240hp FWD cars :p

ESPNSTI · November 17th, 2005, 3:43 AM

Well I'm reasonably fast with either one in hotlapping, but that doesn't help if you burn through tires in 5 laps.

andyhui01 · November 17th, 2005, 4:20 AM

thats the same problem I have... I keep burning my tires. 1/4 of them are gone by the time I hit 150kph, 2nd gear burnout 8) ...

ESPNSTI · November 17th, 2005, 4:49 AM

UFR 20% fuel load:
R2 front tires - 7 laps - blown right front
R3 front tires - 10 laps - blown right front

andyhui01 · November 17th, 2005, 7:50 AM

haha... this is going to be interesting... we still haven't set a lap numbers... 45 should be right... its inbetween 1/2 an hour to 45mins images/smilies/biggrin.gif

pdanev · November 17th, 2005, 10:16 AM

Whoa!

*scared*
Gotta definitely practice today!!!

andyhui01 · November 17th, 2005, 11:06 AM

pfft... if espn hits those laptimes with a deviation <1sec the entire race without burning rubber... I will be WHoa!... images/smilies/eek.gif

j/k... I think I'm gna come last again

FireFox · November 17th, 2005, 8:14 PM

did some practice. I can't even reach the times of Espn. My fastest is round the 0:48.4x
but for the endurance i did 13 laps with 'good' condition of the tires. No blow @ the end, so i could have gone even further.
Most of the laps where round about 0:49.5x -- 0:50.1x

Now I hope that I don't fall behind too much, if all you go faster. So what are your times?
