B2O iRacing 24 Hours of Le Mans 2017

[Kenadian]

The Availability chart was updated with this information last night, as well. You need to keep yourself updated, Sam...

Or just keep asking dumb questions so we can answer them for you, because that's probably just easier...

...and by now we're used to it.

good, because it's worked for me so far

Try this. This is with the changes. Front ARB, Front Spring, and rear diff.

 

[Bedo]

3.50.795 is the qual time. There's room on the table. First lap is the fastest. Can try with 15L of fuel and lower pressures. 49s should be easy.

Add 13L or 14L,coast to the chicanes with 13L,lower pressures to 131.Try like that,gl

Latest sets, tire pressure to 131kp (19 psi).
Latest qual: 3:50.055

i just tried to do an extra lap with fuel saving. i drove 1,5 lap with 11 fuel map and 0,5 lap with 5 and even with that i was out of fuel well before i crossed the green cones. so in order to do that extra lap you'd have to drive about 2 laps with fuel map 11 and with that you'd lose about 7 sec per lap. i don't think it's possible to do that extra lap without losing massive time. maybe i just used alot of fuel but i don't think saving is worth it.

did anyone else try this?

Did some more testing, and on the V5 setup, the diff preload can be lowered for extra speed into the corners. It yields a good difference, but you get more o-shit moments. If you guys want to experiment with that and see what your tolerance is for getting lower, I'm ok with that too.

For me at 40Nm I'm about a second quicker than when I'm at 55Nm.

Ferrari paint is up on Trading Paints for now: https://www.tradingpaints.com/showroom/view/105362/Band-of-Others-Endurance-for-the-24hr-of-Le-Mans

This is as much as I could get done to satisfy the requirements for Race Spot.

Social Media icons, Driver names and some other adjustments will be made Friday night and linked here.

I really think we need to tune the o-shit moments out.

I had a few tonight and I'm not sure they'll see us through a 24 around here particularly where barriers are in close proximity.

Mostly heavy braking is the culprit in these sets it seems so perhaps stiffening the front a tad may be enough?

Ferrari paint sent! Thanks Marc, I almost forgot

 

[Bedo]

Paint looks great Ken! Thanks for the effort. We will make sure you're invited to the Lake House Party once you add the "Party At The Lake House" sponsorship decal.

The V5 setup should not give you any o-shit moments under braking. If it does, then maybe let's play with brake bias and TC2.

Speaking of setups and fast times, have you guys seen this?

Ken, the paint looks really great! We really appreciate all your hard work!!!! I know this takes a ton of time! Really cool!!!! And actually, you're invited to the party at the lake house, whether or not it gets on the car, but would be awesome if it did

Have we agreed on a set? I'm getting a little stressed, each set requires different compromises and sometimes it takes me a multitude of laps to figure out where those compromises are, where I can push it and where I have to back off. I will try to take some time off this afternoon and run some laps by myself to test if we have a final set.

It is already added...

Why is "everyone invited" except Ken has to jump through hoops for an invite?
