SPLITROOM ENDURANCE : PORTIMAO 6 quarter HOURS
@dire sail
@balmy palm
@plain locust
@untold dagger
You in?
No point in doing a multiclass if everybody go for the same class.
You still owe a class victory for the team 
Maybe, though I can say I'm interested, for sure.
Thought so π
XD
Portimao is going to be trickier and with expected "more traffic" than Daytona specially due to the x2 fuel and tyres. There are a couple of turns... and points that are going to be... "keep calm" sites
Anyway, you have 24/7 free to access in race conditions server "SPLITROOM" on multiplayer
Hi you all! I am trying to make people register a bit in advance for saturday race... between today and tomorrow we should have a nice number to be able to keep on this!
Hope so! πͺ
Hi you all! Today we should need a more clear idea of it more people is interested on racing this "long" race. Everyone over 75rep is more than welcomed and there is a free practice server with no pass 24/7. Just search for "SPLIT".
Remember we are doing this endurance via SGP so register, name of server and pass is going to be done here https://beta.simracing.gp/events/7qnGb3L2p6DFgvqHR9g-4#participants-tab
To help this kind of events... knowing a bit in advance registers is always more than welcome
I'm really sorry, guys, I have to withdraw my registration, got some serious fever. I don't think I'll be able to race tomorrow π’
No worries. Next one gonna be Spa... By 30th (sunday) dpi there too π
Sadly there is no minimum of drivers so I proceed to unregister all drivers to avoid any system penalty and cancel event... Hope to see you on next endurance by the end of the month. Spa 6 quarter hours! same link for register https://beta.simracing.gp/events/7qnGb3L2p6DFgvqHR9g-4#participants-tab
SPLITROOM ENDURANCE : SPA 6 quarter HOURS - SUNDAY 30th APRIL 2023
Sorry for not being able to answer sooner but with both my parents having COVID I don't have a lot of free time lately π
no worries at all!
It is not just about 2 people not being able
π
hope we can do it on Spa and we have a nice endurance race
90 minutes is not much and on RR3 is very suitable distance
Hopefully, yeah.
we used to do this as 6 half hours
and man was awesome but its been a long time since we were those many for races
Let's see tomorrow... how it goes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vP647hTRZQw
See how the action unfolded during the 6 Hours of PortimΓ£o's qualifying session. Round 2 of the 2023 FIA World Endurance Championship will get underway at 12:00PM (UTC+1) on April 16.
The FIA World Endurance Championship is the worldβs premier international sportscar championship, contested over seven rounds across North America, Europe, Asia a...
It is being so fun to see just 36 cars at Portimao and how a "mini endurance" on a sim like RR3 could be with just 12 cars per class. With... no night, etc...
I was really thinking on how to turn p1 cars (Mistral) into an "lmp2" class XD but its weird as even the p2 cars are over the standard lmp2 rules and even "better" on those numbers as de DPi...
Mistral P1 as LMP2 substitute should be possible via a custom setup, the P2 drivers could agree upon. Something basic like engine map 2 only and 500 RPM less than stock. Everything else left at the default values.
At least I think this could work
Or doing something on power and weight. Like... +30kg and 15% less power
Reality... is that the new DPi is an upgraded LMP2 car
That could be possible with a thing @plain locust said time ago about adding an option for "forced setups" to a race, in this case "a class"
Waiting for some people that is always late (but this time will be on)... and close to confirm the race for this Sunday (minimum of 5 and 5). Only GT3 car allowed is the porsche 911... and I know we just need 1 more GTR3 as there will be 3 Dpi confirmed by tomorrow.
At least two GT3s, I didn't check dates correctly and forgot I was away for the holidays. Next time ...
OK
Is there a practice server yet?
Just signed up for Spa
@old pewter since you like Porsche, multiclass racing, endurance racing, driving the slower car classes, would you join the Porsche for some action at Spa this Sunday evening?
@atomic spindle my race pace on full fuel and hards is 2.06.0... And going to the limit... Just one stop could be needed
considering IRL LMDH have been on qualy at 2.00.00 but mostly 2.02.00 i think is a nice pace to replicate everything here
20 laps per tank
no, I'm sorry, I don't quite feel like racing momentarily and GT/Spa is not a thing that would reel me in anyway :x
But have you tried it on x2 fuel and tires? I think it should be possible to stretch hards for a two stop, but on x1 fuel usage 75L on full attack last about 45 minutes. Making it 22~23 minutes with 2x fuel usage... So basically a 3 stop on fuel alone, maybe 2 stop, if you manage to save a lot.
It's going to be interesting to see what's faster (I'd go for more stops probably, just for fun)
Sorry! Yes! on x2 is going to be double so 2 stops if you safe some fuel
x1 is 150.5 litters
I am going to open the server on x2
confirmed. on x2 fuel is 310 so i would say 3 stops
my racepace 2.06.5 as there is much degradations but hards work really fine
mediums feel very "qualy" wheels
Mediums do wear off really quick
Hope i can get more people by today as this with 3 stops could be a kind of all time traffic π
That said... What a crash for cadillac irl
Rn we got 5 DPi and 4 Porsche registered π
And some more coming on last minute... Hehehe we had 6 hours at nords and we were exhausted
Definetly with just swap driving would be crazy this sim...
For mid/short endurance racing would be best option by far (2/4/6/8 hours)
That would be insane
One more reason for me to never drive races shorter than one hour
True. 6 hours on the nords with the toyota gr86 (iracing) would say equivalent to our 235i was insane and 2 people per team
And ending like this πππ
But ending
Last lap lost of concentration on almost last corner... Happens
2:04.185 with the setup I used at Daytona (1/16 wing)
2:04.185 (previos session) was the Daytona setup on hards, 39L of fuel (1/16 wing, 5th and 6th gear one click longer)
2:04.558 was the daytona setup on hards, same fuel (2/22 wing, gearing at default)
2:03.722 was the same setup as the 2:04.558 (2/22 wing, default gearing) but on mediums, same fuel
2:02.945 was the low df setup, same fuel, medium tires (1/16 wing, 5th and 6th gear one click longer)
the optimal time of 2:02.793 would have been on the same setup as the 2:02.945
i don't think fuel saving will be an option tonight
No way I can drive 2.02 XD
but... let's have fun and hopefully not much problems on traffic
I have done a 2.03.8 and assume my pace will be... around 2.04
2.04.mid...
enough to have fun
Enough to have fun, 2:04/2:05 should be possible to do consistently
even if we are 4/5 Dpi... it seems there will be some cars to avoid XD
Do you think double stinting the hards is possible/worth it? Double stinting (so 45 minutes) at least one axle should be possible, which would save 2x 15 seconds of standing time in the pits...
But I think I'll work it out on the fly
Risky but i was thinking on that...
But honestly.. will see depending on how the race goes
right now...
@atomic spindle what a race XD
a long endurance in a pocket format hahahaha and an ending from the IMSA
was there drama?
hahahahaha i failed on fuel and went on map 3 half race...
@atomic spindle did a DT and when i was getting him... i spinned
What a race indeed...
Loads of fun! Without the dt I got on my last stop I would have won π
and a guy just "not doing nothing weird...
has won with a last stint on mediums
impossible to get
problems passing Gt3 cars
incidents
hahahaha
FUN damn FUN
as irl
next year without GTE cars... difference between classes is going to funny to see
The amount of fuel saving he must have done on the first two stints...
@mellow plaza it really was a whole lot of fun, thanks for setting this up!
Keep me in mind for the the upcoming rounds π
Check list, dates and next races are coming sure
next one should be Nords on GT3
Thank you so much for joining us
A pleasure, as always!
Could sound crazy... but IMSA on 13th May... is at Laguna Seca. I am going to try...
SPLITROOM ENDURANCE : IMSA at LAGUNA SECA

Yes it is going to be stressing I know
So... Join us if you want to race at Laguna Seca this next Saturday 20th May (Server open at 19:30, Qualy at 19:50 and Race start at 20:00 CET/CEST time)

SPLITROOM ENDURANCE : 20TH MAY IMSA at LAGUNA SECA
@atomic spindle in order to see if there is activity in official weekend race at Spa and due to coincidence on the 24 hours at iracing... We have decided to pospone 1 week the laguna race.
Alright, thanks for letting me know π
Thanks for your help @atomic spindle #1094163655181996083 message
Oh, it's still here! Somehow I couldn't see it anymore, hence my post
π
Tbh this format of private channel it is not the most visual at all
but is what we have
Hey tonight we are going to do (or try) the IMSA at Laguna Seca! DPi vs PORSCHE 911 GT3 90 minutes with Fuel and wheels x2 wanna join us?
Right now we are 10 cars and more coming - Remember you have a free practice server to join just look for "SPLITROOM" servers
@dire sail will you be racing with us today?
aka soontm
;-.)
Server will open 17:30 UTC... so now for CET/CEST area will be 19.30. Race start at 20.00. 19:30 will also be the time limit register
Now we are on CEST
XD
How lovely would be to turn de "practice" server into the final numbers of the race...
1:15 1:16 seems like pretty short laps...
irl is that exactly time
Have you tested how long the medium tires last?
true
i think is going to be... hard start - hard - hard - medium
2.4 stops
so last one mediums... or ... mediums on the mid stop
i hate it π
Enough reason to drive the DPi imho
I don't really enjoy cars with aero levels over gt4/tcr.
Lack of throttle control also wants to have a word
That's something I'm pretty familiar with...
5 DPi and 9 Porsches signed up at the moment
If @dire sail wants to join, he should sing up on sgp as well?
He want, but he wont be back in time. Have fun! π
Damn... π
Sorry guys, I have to cancel this one...
Thanks for joining us. After talking with people involved and racing yesterday we are going to make some changes as it seems obvious that poeple still don't face... All we do is open to those who want to race nicely not a school to enter without knowing or doing some basics. Unfortunately and as game allows so easy gain on rep. Rep limit is going to move for this long races to 80 and for faster classes minimum rating is going to be 1650. Also, some ping limit will be applied.
May i ask what happened? Only heard the dnf messages from CC
Nothing really serious but we wanna keep the things we do specially on this long races for those practicing a bit and with a bit more knowledge
better to filter before this goes big. And with checked the ones causing major incidents and "hits" we face easily that people joining without a minimum knowledge of driving, or even where they have joined can kill others race
We want to assure better experience for all and get for all races like you two had racing for P1 until last 2 laps after 90 minutes π
SPLITROOM ENDURANCE : 3 JUNE - INDIANAPOLIS OVAL 50.0
SPLITROOM ENDURANCE : 3rd JUNE - INDIANAPOLIS OVAL 50.0
I was struggeling quite a bit, my keybind for left click in the pitmenu somehow escaped the matrix and since it didn't allowed me to change the pit preset either i had to do my second stop quite early and had 20 l too much fuel anyway in the end, since refuel was stuck at 120l
Those kinds of things can happen and happen on long races... it is normal
what is not is not knowing what blue flag means...
not your case at all XD
Next 3rd JUNE we will do an Oval race at Indianapolis on FRUS open setup. Race is going to be 50.0 minutes with FUELx1 and TYRESx3 so there can be some strategy and not just a PUSH ME race.
Incident limit is settled in 50
Damage on the cars it is reduced to give some "wall riding" if happens.
If a "reference setup" is needed we will share one via discord
You can join here https://beta.simracing.gp/events/Nt5hgxTWfj4GKRg4ZDYCI
Signed up!
(hopefully I can take part this time...)
Thought so...
Now I'm not sure anymore...
Guess I'll just floor it and evade any walls that might head in my direction
hahahahaha
there is a free server to practice... Hope "lowing" damage will help to not ruin anyones race with first wall contact
it will be around 64 laps
not bad
Btw... Sgp states fuel usage x2 and tires x4, opposing your statement here which says 1x fuel and 3x tires

it will be fuelx1 wheelx3
π
on the practice server is already like that
At least 2 oval crazy fun race have to be
we will sure do a Camaro FIXED at Indy as fixed does not allow to go "full throtle" all time
woah! we have daily races to practice XD
At least for setup and stuff it'll be good
true and basic knowledge of oval driving
including pit stops practice
not bad at all
We will have to take a look on that 90% thing if helps on something or not
After some racing and practicing on the 90% power limitation on the official servers, we will avoid it. There is no clear advantage as cars will have to save fuel and everything is finally based on stategies, drafts and high speeds on the p2p. Also low speeds do so low in terms of possible "incidents". Even we will go on limited damage... There has to be space for mistake. So, as no better racing is given/felt so we will go:
50.0 minutes race
limited damage
Full power server
Fuel x1
Wheels x3
So if fuel is properly saved there is option for double stint at some point
FREE server to test is able 24/7 (check for "SPLITROOM" on mulitplayer) and we are sharing a base setup to work with nice speeds in case you need/want one at our discord. Register for race is able here https://beta.simracing.gp/events/Nt5hgxTWfj4GKRg4ZDYCI
