Next week I'll probably be busy

#

But if it's the same the week after I'll join then

willow summit
#

Ye it’s the same combo until end of this season

#

Which is in .. 11 weeks 🤔

dusk violet
#

Good to know

willow summit
willow summit
#

4 TCRs. Dann should get some laps in 😂

calm helm
#

8:48.3 ,second lap, full tank. I'm getting better😁

calm helm
willow summit
#

Track didnt change since Wednesday 😄 gotta walk the dog and then will get the dust of my Audi

willow summit
#

guess we see you at lfm?^^

dusk violet
#

Unfortunately not, I joined the weekly

#

But one of these days I will make it to an lfm race,

#

Probably

#

Split 2 seems to be fine, no crash for me yet

willow summit
#

ah just read that some splits did crash 😄

calm helm
#

Not good🤷‍♂️

willow summit
#

ehm civic guy had a 7:19 and i had a 7:23

calm helm
willow summit
#

we run "nordschleife" as layout

calm helm
willow summit
#

seems like 8

#

roughly

calm helm
#

NLS is 9.5

willow summit
#

but not sure about how many laps

calm helm
#

DTM92 should be like 15 sec faster top pace

#

I have to setup the fuel , thank you for that✌️

willow summit
#

dont know. the one dtm on the server didnt finish a lap and signed out 😄

calm helm
#

On NLS the pace is 8:30

strange pecan
#

Guys, how do I join the race?

willow summit
#

close raceroom

#

and just join via the website

#

easiest way

#

or search in the community tab

#

password is "73k3"

strange pecan
#

Thats more like it, thank you bunch

willow summit
#

ping me if still not working somehow

strange pecan
#

I think I’m in

#

Thanks man

#

Damn, too late to start qualy lap

willow summit
#

why?

strange pecan
#

Ah its Nords only, I could have made it

strange pecan
#

I could have made it 🥲

willow summit
#

ye^^

strange pecan
#

Oh well, such is life

willow summit
#

GGs both of you

strange pecan
#

Gr all

willow summit
#

@calm helm had two-three mistakes, might have been a bit closer else

strange pecan
#

Took me first two laps to get used to hards, never driven nords before with them so all my references were a bit off

willow summit
strange pecan
#

But then it settled and was pretty decent

calm helm
strange pecan
willow summit
willow summit
#

but the results seem off 😄

strange pecan
#

Maybe becuase I didnt go through the site?

willow summit
#

nah should be based on signups

strange pecan
#

I mean I just entered the server, I didnt sign up anywehere

#

I got Massi’d 😭😂

#

Maybe they found an illegal component on my car 😂

calm helm
willow summit
strange pecan
willow summit
#

thought you had signed up

strange pecan
#

I went to community servers, clicked join, entered the password and I was in

willow summit
#

thought that wouldnt be possible

#

so ye, might be due to that 😄

strange pecan
#

Although its my fault, I should have jump in a little bit earlier but I was super tight time wise

willow summit
#

"GZ you have won 10 races" 😄

image.png
strange pecan
#

So I guess this was just an exhibition race for me now? 😂

willow summit
#

you saved @dusk violet from ELO-loss 😄

strange pecan
#

And I saved myself from ELO gain 😂😂💪🏼

dusk violet
#

Clearly this was calculated on my end

#

I'll be on doing nords two weeks from now, or that's the plan

willow summit
strange pecan
willow summit
#

ye and dimitar, better luck next time

#

👀

#

The civic guy was fast , I expected to catch me.

willow summit
#

Seemed like the civic got rid of the Cupra in the right hander into foxhole and then after dottinger the civic was facing the wrong direction and I guess the Cupra locked the tyres and crashed into the civic 😅

calm helm
#

He was like 2sec behind and then..... I guessed he messaged the last corner by late braking after the straight.

#

Good for you, free positions, no ELO lost💪

willow summit
#

Actually gained massive 😂

#

Not sure how much I would have gained with correct results tho

willow summit
calm helm
#

Lovely 😍

calm helm
#

LOL, I even gained 9 ELO, even better 👌
It doesn't matter much but still a nice bonus for the 7 laps.

calm helm
#

E90 from WTCC13 is giga, around NLS, even on a default setup it's a pleasure to be driven 👌

willow summit
#

What a shame that those get left out pretty completely

#

Even more than modern wtcrs

calm helm
#

Don't know how is there BOP, but Bimmer is perfect, just give it a spin👌

willow summit
#

Today we race Monza with the GT4s! What could go wrong?

calm helm
#

still thinking to join ot not to join🤔

#

lot's of events last week and I'm afraid I'll burn out sooner than the upcoming summer.

willow summit
#

GT4 grid is usually bigger than Saturdays Nordschleife

#

I’m in the office but could check the “recent sessions”, even tho it will probably just show the last week as it was the first race of the new season

calm helm
#

i'll decide in the next few hours🤔

calm helm
#

1:56.8 best lap, race pace 1:57-57.500. I guess the top guys will be about a sec faster, around Monza🤔

willow summit
#

Could check out Alex & Josef’s profile, one or even both should have raced there last season also

#

They are usually upfront

smoky cradle
#

is El Nossa racing today?

willow summit
#

of course

willow summit
smoky cradle
#

I prob don't have a gt4

#

or monza cursed track 😌

willow summit
calm helm
#

GT4 race was good one👌

#

Clean and quite on pace.

strange pecan
#

992 tomorrow, which version is it? With or without aids?

willow summit
#

The one with aids :/

#

Not that popular tho

calm helm
#

I was about to ask it...🤔

#

I won't be able to join it coz I have to do my iRacing races today🤷‍♂️

willow summit
strange pecan
willow summit
#

Ye I’m also more for the sprint spec but what can you do 😅

#

DTM02 could also need some more participation, so you are welcomed to join 👌 dimitar was there last week as well

calm helm
#

Anyway, any expectations for numbers about PCUP?

willow summit
willow summit
calm helm
willow summit
#

I wouldn’t put many eggs in the basket for the PCup race though. Will see if others join but currently I’m already halfway planning something else this evening

#

Been also not that popular last season

calm helm
#

Don't know why, but I cant find any track records history in LFM for RR🤔

willow summit
#

Like in fastest time?

#

Is it a LFM+ feature 🤔 😅

#

Or more like an issue with new/old website? Seems like legacy website has some incorrect classes assigned to Raceroom

willow summit
calm helm
#

ah, i'm looking for... in the wrong section - track records🙈

willow summit
willow summit

willow summit
#

Ah it’s all german 😂

#

It’s in their “registration” channel at the bottom, will send it to you

willow summit
#

nice crash i guess

calm helm
#

What a waste of time. The race started an the car was driving in auto polite alone....... no other drivers around🤷‍♂️

willow summit
#

ye had the same

#

not sure what happend

calm helm
#

Is there a race or

#

No actually?

willow summit
#

nah

#

no race

calm helm
#

OK, next week🤷‍♂️

willow summit
#

and if theres a result, as we/some are still driving on autopilot, wont be counted

calm helm
willow summit
#

still sucks

calm helm
#

I'm going for a race on lsguna

willow summit
#

had a proper grid and then whatever happend

#

did everyone get kicked at almost the end of quali?

calm helm
#

Yes , I was kicked off

#

Rejoin but all lap times were erased 🤷‍♂️

willow summit
#

ye had the same

#

then thought maybe the start would "even it out"

calm helm
#

Yeah, thought the same, but then the endless auto pilot came😁

#

They should remove that auto driving it's so GT7 style😂

willow summit
#

Ye and I wasn’t sure if I might hit the barrier in T1 and my wheel would spin or not 😅

calm helm
#

The car turned by itself 😁

calm helm
#

@willow summit looks like the race was counted 🤷‍♂️

IMG_20260423_011409.jpg

#

Tomorrow, DTM02, thats a short Hockenheim, but is it the new one or the classic one?

willow summit
willow summit
strange pecan
#

Oh, is it?

willow summit
strange pecan
#

Damn, I was checking the wrong week hahah

#

Allright, even better, as I actually drove dtm02 on Zolder already 😁

willow summit
#

Never did drive them then and will be late at home, so gonna be .. very interesting for me 😅

strange pecan
#

Tire management will be interesting as we only have softs and they go away quick

willow summit
#

Lowest in terms of tyres we ever had was like 4% or something

#

But to be fair, I’d assume the field will be stretched already that far, that it won’t make much of a difference

#

Today we race the assist-less DTM02 beasts at Zolder!

12min Q, followed by 40min R session. Rolling start, no mandatory pitstop and open setup.
Signup open until 19:55CEST; server starts at 20:0CEST

IMG_2875.png
willow summit
#

Guess no dtm today. So might try some McLaren at RBR DTM

calm helm
#

Yeah , I checked but no drivers.

Looks like the results from yesterday NOS will no be corrected🤔

willow summit
#

Not yet at home tho

#

But maybe try to click manually on “my profile” or whatever it’s called

strange pecan
#

Is there really no one?

willow summit
#

@distant sandal has signed up and I’m kinda signing up for everything to at least show some interest 😅

strange pecan
#

Yeah but 45min race of 3 drivers 🥲

#

Nvm I’ll sign up

#

How do I do that? 😁

willow summit
#

I assume you got an account at lfm?

strange pecan
willow summit
#

Ah 😂

#

Register via steam then 👍

strange pecan
#

Did it 💪🏼

willow summit
#

You don’t need to put in your Raceroom ID afaik, that was necessary back in the alpha when lfm did send the results to Raceroom

strange pecan
#

Ok and how do I sign up now?

#

I see the entry list, but no “join” button, or similar

willow summit
#

🤔 sounds weird

#

Should look like this

IMG_2893.png
#

Then the green whatever, choose your car

#

Might take a moment that your owned content is synced tho

strange pecan
#

Damn, doesnt look anything like that

willow summit
#

🤔 are you in the old /legacy website?

#

Did you click at Raceroom as sim?

strange pecan
#

I just clicked on your link and it opened the entry list

#

Should I go to legacy page?

willow summit
#

Nah

#

Let me start my pc

strange pecan
#

I think I managed 😁

willow summit
#

ye

willow summit
calm helm
willow summit
#

Dtm

calm helm
#

DTM2002?

#

I joined for some practice session 😁

calm helm
#

Just checked now and yeah, the NOS was cancelled.

#

OK let's go to Zolder✌️

strange pecan
#

Where do I get the password?

distant sandal
#

you can join directly via website

#

i write you when serveris ready

#

go in upcoming sessions

strange pecan
#

But I would prefer to join in community server 🥲

#

Ingame

distant sandal
#

ah ok then i send you the pw via dm

strange pecan
#

Amazing, thank you plenty!

distant sandal
#

i cant send you dms...

#

can you write me

#

i sent it via dm on lfm website

willow summit
#

got it @strange pecan ?

willow summit
#

sorry guys. had to bail as it smelled burnt in my apartment and needed to check

calm helm
willow summit
#

ye neighbours had some stuff on their grill which shouldnt be on there^^

willow summit
#

saturday gonna try out your audi setup!

calm helm
#

Nice, I'll test this approach on the Seat coz it's a very tail happy cat 😁

But for now I'll stay with the Audi. If I'm free I'll join for some practice.

willow summit
#

Seat?

#

🤔

calm helm
#

Seat Leon Cupra I think it was from 2020 up to 2022 and olso in the TCC class.

willow summit
#

Afaik there’s no seat to choose for the LFM race at least 🤔 might be wrong tho

#

I know there’s a seat Leon in the ‘13

calm helm
#

Really?

#

But it's part of the pack?🤔

#

In the last race there was one guy in it.

#

The was in Honda. And we both in the Audi.

willow summit
#

Ah

#

Ye

#

I’m dumb

#

The Cupra

#

Thought of the Leon 😂

willow summit
#

Today we race the golden-era of DTM, at least for some: DTM92 together with the more modern TCR at the Nordschleife - layout will be also Nordschleife.
12min Q, 45 R session at 20CEST - signup ends at 19:55.
no mandatory pitstop, open setup.

If I'm free tonight I'll join with the Audi TCR.

dusk violet
#

I joined the imola 2hr but there's a 50/50 that crashes so if so I'll probably join here

willow summit
#

Classic Saturday

calm helm
calm helm
#

I hope for a few more TCRs joing the field 🤞

willow summit
#

Ye we will see. Imola event, sunny weather ..

strange pecan
#

I’ll be there in DTM92, would consider joining the tcr too but not with 2022 only, so 92 it is 😁

#

@willow summit where do I get the password for the server? I feel bad always asking you guys for it before the race 😂

willow summit
#

Else the password should be still visible in the popup on the website

strange pecan
#

Dont know why I’m sceptical about this join through page, I simply feel better going through the ingame server.. its a mental thing probably

willow summit
#

Not sure if there’s a “copy password” function but else the password should be visible in the popup

willow summit
strange pecan
#

Allright I’ll see what happens 😁

#

How many signed up for now?

willow summit
#

4 💀 seems like one signed out even a few minutes ago

calm helm
#

Hum, are we going then?

willow summit
#

As long as we are not 6 ppl, nothing happens if we don’t race

#

I mean, if we stay signed up

calm helm
#

It's not a problem for me, if you join the event

#

Will be some good practice experience

willow summit
#

If we decide not to race we could also go and train for VTM at RBR

strange pecan
willow summit
# strange pecan Well gosh darn it

2nd time the race would take place, not many ppl know about it yet.. also the ingame events are probably not in the favor of that race 🤔

strange pecan
#

That gt3 obsession, getting on my nerves 😭

calm helm
#

Looks like gt4 and GT3 are the most popular

willow summit
#

Guess the idea was that there’s some interest for older cars to be races but 🤷‍♂️

calm helm
#

Maybe DTM95 gonna be more popular in this event + super touring? 🤔

#

OK, I'm starting the PC and we are going in right?

strange pecan
#

Yes I’ll be there

willow summit
#

👍🏻

calm helm
#

✌️

willow summit
calm helm
#

Yeah, they don't change mind season.

strange pecan
#

It will probably be better next weekend

#

Although I’ve seen that Flo was a bit strong minded about the race taking place on saturdays, which I was sad to read, as I really like racing with him

#

And I know he loves the 92

willow summit

GGs! @calm helm setup does feel good 👌🏻

#

@strange pecan guess was a bit lonely at front?

strange pecan
calm helm

GG guys was fun✌️

willow summit
strange pecan
calm helm
#

I forgot to grid trying to setup my tire pressures🙈

willow summit
#

ye my tyre pressures were .. off place also 😄 forgot to adjust those

calm helm
willow summit
#

ye roughly. would check LB

#

Rear axle should be higher tho

#

190

#

but those are just out of my head

#

but you are still quicker than i am 😄

calm helm
#

I never mess with them , I have bad memories from ACC 😁

willow summit
#

but i stand by my opinion: TCRs are fun and underrated

calm helm
#

But I was advised to do them at 1.8bars

calm helm
strange pecan
#

And I hate all the people who dont undersand how great they are 😂😂

#

That being said, when its 2022 only, I’m out too because I only want to drive the Megane 🥲

willow summit
#

ye but guess they are not BoPed within the different eras

#

but at least for some more TCR races theres not enoughn participation at LFM yet

strange pecan
#

For the races where all classes are open, the 2019 Megane hangs with 2022 cars with no problem, on occasions its even a pacesetter too.

#

Cant claim for others tho as Megane is all I drive 😂

willow summit
#

BoP tourist 😉

@calm helm did look in my mirror as if one of your headlights was damaged

LFM schedule for next week!
Bathurst for GT4&PCup - what could go wrong?
Nordschleife for DTM25 and DTM92&TCR22
Moscow for DTM02&Alpine Cup

IMG_2902.png
calm helm
#

I did Moscow only in TCR I think. Gonna be hard in DTM2002👀

spark minnow
#

it's alright. it was used in dtm13-18 i think so it is very drivable with those maschines 😄

willow summit
#

I won’t be allowed anywhere near a steering wheel at that time of the day on Thursday

calm helm
#

I have IMSA at Laguna this Saturday at the same time so probably won't be available for TCR around Nords.

willow summit
#

Iracing?🤔

calm helm
willow summit
#

Ah never been in touch with them 😅

calm helm
#

Probably will start doing IMSA in iRacing in the next season.

calm helm
willow summit
willow summit
calm helm
#

Hard pushing for p20 and all the drivers infront being like 1 sec faster was very good.

willow summit
#

Sounds like a competitive grid

#

What times did you drive?

calm helm
#

I'm in the mid 29. Last night did my first 1:29.005😁

willow summit
#

Ouh man

#

Gotta be rough with the McLaren 😂

calm helm
#

I'm not sure there was any Maca in the grid.

willow summit
#

30.028 or something was my e best when I tried it yesterday

calm helm
#

Bimmer , Porsche , Merc and a few Audi

willow summit
#

Ye thats very unfortunate

#

It’s the same for any race pretty much

#

When McLaren buff @spark minnow

calm helm
#

My best in the race was like 29.3xxx all the drivers infront were in the 28.... Top guys in the low 28.

willow summit
#

Not sure how that translates into fixed setup tho

#

Can’t even adjust psi 😂

calm helm
willow summit
#

Guess should check the rules 😂

calm helm
#

Using ESC is forbidden in quali

willow summit
#

Guess that’s no big deal on RBR at least

#

The Bathurst one? Yes

hardy sandal

718, suffering in peace

turbid cloud
#

BMW F82 is my choice

hardy sandal
#

I’m gonna go with the Alpine

willow summit
#

First time racing at LFM?

calm helm
#

I should put some practice 😁

willow summit

Nah, a little bit of thrill should be there eyesr

hardy sandal

I’m definitely gonna get massively outclassed

willow summit
calm helm
hardy sandal
#

Yes

willow summit
# hardy sandal Yes

There’s two possibilities how to join.
A) via their website while Raceroom is closed, just press “join”
B) when Raceroom is already running, search for the session-id or the race in the community server tab and enter the password (shown on the website)

hardy sandal
#

Oh ok

#

I search in the community server tab?

willow summit
#

Yep

#

Website should give you some kind of popup with the session id as well as the password which is unique for every new race

hardy sandal

I apologize to whoever I crashed in the first lap on the last straight

#

or second lap

strange pecan
#

Gr everyone ✌🏼

willow summit
strange pecan
#

I lost the podium in closing stages of the race because I can’t get to grip with that idiotic abs

strange pecan
willow summit
#

ah, sadge

#

@calm helm wanna start from the starting grid once? 😄

strange pecan
#

Nah, I just rememberd why I dont drive cars with abs

#

But what can you do when its the only class with decently filled grid

#

I would have been happy with P3 for my first GT4 race in couple of years.. but of course, had to screw it up 😂

#

Oh well, gr everyone

turbid cloud
#

You can change your abs setting nerly to 0

calm helm
#

I like Bathurst but always something goes wrong there 😁

Anyway was a good one, trying to catch you.

willow summit
#

@safe tendon

#

@sand sorrel

sand sorrel
#

TY

willow summit
calm helm
#

My car was not damybut lost 10+ sec in pit, because of the Alpine probably another 20+...... 🤷‍♂️

#

Bathurst always delivers.

#

Probably we would have been very close

willow summit
#

gonna "train" for a few more minutes at vtm practice if you wanna join

calm helm
#

I climbed to p12 I think and this guy put me back to dead last 😁

calm helm
willow summit
willow summit
#

@calm helm did check the rules for today and Sunday, no mandatory stop - correct? Guess I’m gonna try and not change tyres today 🤔

calm helm
willow summit
#

Imola 2h also was done with one Tyre set, no?

calm helm
#

I'm going with full tank and a tire change mid race.... or a bit later depends from the traffic

calm helm
willow summit
#

Dito 😂

#

But that’s what I heard

calm helm
#

I have to asko Nico, he knows best🤔

But he is that fast that he can goes for tires and still be first and win the race.😁

willow summit
#

Ye same thought which I had. The fast guys gonna be faster than me anyway, doesn’t matter if I change tyres or not. Or maybe the guys around my pace could get snacked

calm helm
#

I think on regular 1 hour stint tired will be something around 60-70%, which means on A double stint around 30-35%. GT3s gonna be tricky. Never driven than with so much tire wear🤔

#

We will see later in practice how it's going. Race should be about 37 laps.

willow summit
#

Ye “setup” is already saved with 38 laps

willow summit
calm helm
#

I think it will be hard even for the fast guys to keep pace like 28 something....

#

Probably more like 29 / 30...., which is good for us.

willow summit
#

Ye but I’m not going to risk it by saving 3l of fuel at the start which has absolutely no influence on my performance 😂

calm helm
#

Yeah.... Last night I was fuel saving in the last lap, around Bathurst 😁

willow summit
#

That’s why I always take at least one lap more than my calculations

calm helm
#

How much fuel does the Maca needs per lap around RBR?

willow summit
#

2.8? Out of my head right now

Porsche is around 2.75-2.8

#

So about the same. I think 107L should be fine.

#

McLaren feels a bit like you have to drive it as a TCR 😂 get the rotation early in the corner and then full throttle straight to the corner-exit

calm helm
#

Zero experience with that Brand.

#

It's like Silverstone for you to me😁

willow summit
#

Debating with myself if I should give the non-evo one a chance but no real evidence that it does drive better

#

And would need to buy it eyesr

calm helm
#

EVO might be safer, more easy🤔

willow summit
#

Mh you might be right. Seems like tyres have been at 60% after 1h

calm helm
#

with thr x2 tires they force you to go in the pit and don't push like crazy, so a bit of strategy and tire menagment, not just pure pace.

Anyone knows which spec Porsche cup is racing today?

calm helm
willow summit
#

Ye endurance spec

#

But don’t expect that many drivers, not really popular

willow summit
calm helm
#

I'll see if it's available before that and do some laps

willow summit
#

Ye seems like no mandatory pitstop for tonight

#

But for the actual races it’s tba

calm helm
#

I think the drop of pace going to be dramatic and won't justify going to pit for just tires🤔

willow summit
#

First it was “ye forgot to mention it in the rules but could be an additional strategy” and then it was like “waiting for feedback after the race”

calm helm
willow summit
#

Guess there’s RBR and Norisring where it could be considered to not go for pits, the other tracks are out of discussion tho

calm helm
#

Currently I'm more intrested how the other drivers will perform. Already know 3 of them and they are much faster than me😁

willow summit
#

Ye 😂

calm helm
willow summit
#

Testserver was at least fixed already. Couldn’t change anything

calm helm
#

....OK, that's challenging and interesting. Pure driving skill and tire management. I'm excited 🤩

willow summit
#

Well I could imagine some cars are more gentle to the tyres are bring them better to suitable temps/pressures than others 🤔

calm helm
willow summit
#

Don’t get me wrong

#

But hopefully 😂

calm helm
#

Probably tweaking TC will be also locked 🤔

#

I should be fine with TC3

willow summit
#

Nah could change those settings

#

Abs and tc

#

And bias

hardy sandal
#

Anyone has a setup? I'm understeering like crazy

willow summit
#

Classic

#

Bring the front toe more towards 0.00

#

Helps with the understeer

#

But thats why the car is not popular at LFM 😅

hardy sandal
#

only one signup? 🙁

willow summit

ye not popular

#

that was last week? or even two weeks ago

but the races we had even with few ppl have been really close..

I think I will skip this one

#

I'm really struggling with this car

calm helm
#

It's not an easy car.

willow summit
#

what happend to you? dont wanna drive?

willow summit
#

sorry for that bump 😄

calm helm
#

No problem, you gave me extra boost.🍻

Did you lose it there? I think you did?🤔

That Bimmer and the other Porsche (not Grello)
We're a menace. That dudes don't know what they are doing 🙈

The other Grello was good but was slow pretty much in any corner. He starter to suffer even more half of the race and went to pit.

I decided to build a gap, but later decide to wait for the leaders to see what they gonna do seeing that I can almost hold the gap.

Anyway we change the strategy on the fly and it worked. GG for us🍻

willow summit
#

Ye the other Porsche had issues with the hardware and went straight into the wall 😅

#

But could keep up with your pace while you are fighting

#

And I guess for Sunday no stop is the to go 🤔

calm helm
#

Well I'm speaking about their defensive moves going 3 wide for T2 .... but lacking on pace. They were doing like 1:31.5

Anyway, there wasn't any contact so all was fine.

willow summit
#

Ye was watching that from behind just waiting for stuff to happen

calm helm
willow summit
#

There could be one, made the 28,low in Quali

willow summit
#

Tried the old McLaren. Within first few laps already 0.5s faster eyesr

#

but cant change it anymore, deadline was 26.04. - rip me

calm helm
#

You had consistent pace.

willow summit
#

deadline is incorrect as first race was scheduled for 26., deadline will be moved to this week sunday

@willow summit is server up for you?

we are checking

Are we going to call it a night?

willow summit

server is up

calm helm
#

GG..it was hard in top 5. It's so peaceful starting from the pit🤷‍♂️

willow summit
#

GG! had goods fights in the front?

calm helm
#

I did 3 overtakes one from the very start after turn 1 or T2 and the rest were from other drivers errors. I was not able to get P3, but p5 was on my back the first 2 laps. Than somehow I build a comfortable gap and it was more easy till the end.

#

I'm not get used to so much stress the first 2 laps. Have to practice this.🤷‍♂️

willow summit
calm helm
#

Being on the front is not my thing. It's boring in a way nothing is happening just pushing and trying to be prefect. No traffic, no fights, no tricky moves or avoiding crashes. Not my thing to be in the front.

willow summit
#

checked the replay?

calm helm
willow summit
#

3 wide after döttinger the left hander in lap1

#

was scary 😄

#

and some ferrari up side down

calm helm
#

You survived I guess?

willow summit
#

we all survived

calm helm
#

You managed a good position almost top 10

willow summit
#

somehow

calm helm
#

Yeah drivers are clever and respectful here, no heroistic moves that end in tears.

#

But yeah going there 3 wide, you need to have big balls😁

Looks like the problem with the servers are constant 🤔

Maybe opening with a long practice session is a more wise approach...

willow summit

the server does start but its somehow not shown, as soon as its started manually it does work... a bit weird

I'm taking a bit of break. It was 2 months of very extensive racing. Summer is coming, temps are much higher and racing in VR is getting harder. I won't stop racing, but will limit my participation significantly.

willow summit
#

Ye my fan is running already 😅

calm helm
#

Fan is permanently running even in the winter and it was fine up to 22-23C., but currently I'm my room is already 25.5C. and it's just the beginning. Summer is hitting 30C and even withe Air Conditioner + Fan a 45m - 1 hour race is a challenge.

#

I'll use the free time for some SRK/Raido practice for the DTM26 events.

willow summit
#

Ye that’s also one of the downsides of VR which is holding me back to get my foot into that

willow summit
calm helm

Trying to adapt back to the monitor will take time and I won't like it. Last summer, I permanently stopped simracing up to mid / end of September.

# willow summit Already?!

Not exactly, but I was bored from GT3 after the 24L race, and that car was a welcome change for me. It's challenging and rewarding to be driven and every race is different. And I'm really curious to see if I can survive a 2h race in it with a good pace.
