Vintage Le Mans Circa 1967

great racing guys, sorry for the restart cus of the roll hehe i made sure to give that kerb alittle more respect during the race

i know a few people mentioned how the cars felt alot different and everyone seemed to be runing a second or 2 of their practice times, i wondered if it was maybe due to the sim damage?

anyhow, great race, look forward to next week at le man

good race guys, crappy how lag turned out at end. Le Mans should be interesting to say the least.

I was running the same lap times if not slightly faster (I practice in online lobby with sim damage though)

I also practice with sim damage in test and tune and online just to be sure of tunes but can't predict lag issues. Lag definitely plague the lobby tonight and screwed my replay as it ends on lap 19. Just one request, I didn't hear everyone calling out there passes or pits. PLEASE make sure to communicate your intentions so no one is caught off guard. We will have members joining that are not as good as some and not used to running with traffic some we have to work together. Sorry for the problems experience tonight and look forward to next week going smoother.

It was ask if we will give bonus points out and I was gonna wait til next series to do it but what the heck I will give point for fastest lap and most laps lead if I can figure out who got them.

If anyone has a replay that goes all the way please send it to me, Thanks in advance.

maybe i just overcooked the tires or something but the car felt weird even before i got damage.

whats the points system for the series?

1st starts at 20 and -1 for each position. 1 pt for each bonus. Watched the replay 3 times hoping it would load fully it I watched different people with no avail. Might be tough to decide bonus for most laps lead.

The replay thing could be a problem in this game. Now that you mention it, I believe I had one of the replays in my Trans Am series come up short as well. In FM3 the replays wouldn't quite cover an hour race. This time around they seem to be even shorter.

Good race guys. I would have to say that sim damage does increase lap times i was managing high 1.34's in practice but don't use sim damage and also i believe replays cut off at 35 minutes no matter what but i may be wrong. see you all next week

Unfortunately I couldn't make it. But when I got home I tried to watch and it said something was wrong idk it wouldn't let me connect to the lobby.

Points standing added to first page. Congrats to EMW VIOLATION for taking max points with fastest lap and most laps lead with a win. SnippetyOggy pulled down a win and most laps lead with DBF2KILLER picking up fastest lap. Congrats to everyone for suffering thru the accidents and finishing a most interesting race.

Great pics Turtle! I know I'm biased, but that's a really cool pic of my 330 right on the white line. I also like the last one, where it appears as Rokko's driver is looking over at Violation.

I did save the replay, but I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I'll see if it kept the whole thing.

We've suspected the replay length is based on the number of drivers in the lobby as well. A larger group with make for a shorter replay. That's why in my earlier comment I already knew the race would get cut pretty short on the replay. It will be the same for everyone.

may i just say, leaving the lobby public so anyone can jump in and spectate may also cause additional lag issues.

that might make sense as at the time karma and dom had their incidents someone had just joined and then afterwards left the lobby if i recall correctly

It will definitely be set to invite only for continuation of the series.

I wanted to make a mention that it is possible to have a multiclass race where each "bucket" is random on grid order, without mixing S and A class. You can also make a 1 second delay from the first group to the second group, so that if/when the back S class drivers have to slow down or make an error they do not get mixed so quickly with the A class drivers.

Yea I don't know what the random grid matters since we are not qualifying and it doesn't appear we are gridded by when we join a lobby. The only thing I have noticed with gridding is I usually get top starting order and can only contribute it to me being club leader but same can't be said of Mako so I don't know. don't think we need to delay start either group because tracks selected have lots of room into first turn just needs some cautious driver.

Good race guys, we just need to be a bit more cautious at the start of the race

do we have the results and standings per chance?

I'll have to watch replay before posting results.

Standings updated in second post. NOTE TO DRIVERS- Please watch corner cutting. Do not cut corners.
