Round 1: Road America

yep, I don't have the server details though.

The race setup defs does seem to drop pretty quick, I dropped 4 tenths of a second after 9 laps. I'll try out lower tyre pressures

Well here are the details

Server name: le-mans-rennsport.teamspeak3.com:4586
Password: 4586

did register the cars and paints and stuff?

for team races, you need to send paints and then we need to download the pack to our computer, because trading paints doesnt work yet

I've registered Team 1 for the session

Team 2 is registered

Awsome! Im going to run Quali nr 2 at 16.00 if someone wants to join so i can get some draft

Seems like only one member of the team can drive at once so just let me know when you guys want to drove. I've done a 2:04.9 but I think if I can nail a lap I can get a 4.7 without a draft

edit: finished the session in 14th out of 35 or so, fastest time was a 2:03.8

also, does Juan even know what's going on? He hasn't been on the forums in like 3 months

Well done Riley, that's a really good time!
I know I'll never be able to beat that, so what's the plan?

Maybe we can improve that time with draft or we can help Team II, or both

hahah not sure, at this stage I'm still not happy with it, there's defs a few more tenths on the table

I'm pretty slow compared to you guys on Q pace so I won't be qualifying. I'll join in the session though and watch for fun. ( Might do some spotting on TeamSpeak ) For the next 3 days I'll be practicing nothing but race pace! Awesome qualifying guys. I've sent Juan a message. He knows that the race is on Saturday but I've told him that Q is tonight and that he needs to get in gear and start practicing / at least talking on the forums.

Sorry for don´t say nothing guys. I am here to do my best. Sorry again.

If I could find 2 more tenths then we'd probably jump like 15 cars at least haha, so close. I got a 2:04.8 but had an off track at the very end of the lap.

No problem mate. Let's get racing!

Yeah don't worry mate! Nice too see you

I got a 2:05.2 with off track. I will do Q the next hours. Great job with the setup Riley

I made a few small adjustments for myself to Riley's setup. I dropped the diff preload to 90ft-lbs, stiffened the rear suspension and changed the brake pressure to Medium. Car felt great to me. I can't drive with an understeer-esque setup.

Also, Juan you have registered for the wrong Q session. You have to go to "MyTeam Sessions" under MyTeams and join "Masters of Endurance Qualifying #2". The server you have joined is for teams if the first one is full

Ok Oscar I have to learn all about "teams"

Finally I got a 2:05.1 on test. On Q I couldn´t get any better. Congrats for that 2:04.8 Riley and good job on Q guys

I made a little bit of math and unfortunately it seems like team II didn't make it to the top 60.
That's a pity because I honestly thought that a 2:05.3 would have been enough, but that wasn't the case.
There is an insanely strong field out there, seems like that a 2:05.1 was the limit.

Team I with a 2:04.9 will not be in the top40  


Hats off to Henrik, you did a great job mate, unfortunately that wasn't enough.

Keep pushing guys, I wanna see both teams running at Suzuka

Are you sure? It seemed like 2:05.3 was a pretty good lap in the 0600 Q and was mid to back of pack for 1600 Q. I wouldn't count it out just yet until we have the next qualifying completed.

I'm not 100% sure, but that time was 46th in session2, and there were at least 10 teams faster than that time in session1 which didn't show up in session 2

Where was our time?

With a 2:05.1 we were in 36th position in session2

Ah ok. But Riley got a 2:04.915 in the first Q so we might be higher up. Also, the Top 30 from this weeks race will be guaranteed a spot on the grid for the rest of the championship. So, the goal for Road America is to FINISH and maybe get a Top 30

Some guy made a spreadsheet of all Q times so far. LMR I is in 45th and the LMR II car is in 65th. There is a final Q session at 0000 GMT so everyone make the last push

Managed a 2:04.785 in the final qualifying session. I swear I did like 30 2:04.9s, so difficult to improve. We should easily qualify for the race, doesn't look like team 2 will though because I didn't see them in there. Was 25th out of the 60 or so teams in there.
