iRacing Petit Le Mans 30 Sept- Oct 1st *Team Thread*

[Jes_971]

A big thanks to @Noodleguitar for the schedule work.

@Nejtun Thank you sir for the setup help to keep us from killing ourselves over the 10 hours of racing.

@Brainling I'll be on later today for practice and whatnot.

 

[reid]

I am such a newby to B2O that I can't find the Petit schedule. Can you direct me to it so I can see if i am able to do it?

 

[Brainling]

Don't think it's posted in the thread. Nejtun posted it in TS last night.

 

[Nejtun]

@reid Here is the Schedule ----->CLICKY<----- the different car tabs are at the bottom, everyone is free to edit their teams as they wish

 

[Skid_Marc_]

@Skid_Marc_ we'll have to run your Black on Blue Ford GTE paint because I still am not anywhere near ready on the regular Red on Black Endurance theme at this time.

If this works for @Brainling & @Jes_971 then I'll add their names to it. I invited both of you to "Band of Others Endurance - Ford". Let me know if there is a specific number you guys would like!

 

[Brainling]

Maybe I'm just not seeing it, but is there a Fanatec logo on there anywhere?

 

[Deb]

I'm at work Deb so I can't post anything.

Just use the last version I gave you and take down front castor to 9.1 and add a few clicks of ride height to the rear.

...or I can share it when I get home tonight.

I'll also upload the Ferrari 488 GT3 paint to TP tonight (forgot to last night, sorry).

How can you work at a time like this????????

Okay, thanks, I'll make the adjustments later so I can post for rest of team

 

[Jes_971]

@Brainling Front fender above the tire.

@Skid_Marc_ That looks sharp!

 

[Ryan Walker]

Just done a 9 lap run and this was my pace most of the time with the 488 GT3. Pretty much the pace I was aiming for.

 

[Deb]

Which set up were you using and do you know what the temp was?

 

[Ryan Walker]

Which set up were you using and do you know what the temp was?

I believe it was the V3 set up I was using but felt to loose to me. Forgot to check what the temp was but I should be around for some practice when I finish work.

Has there been any changes to the set ups?

 

[Deb]

Yes, the Wyatt setup did not seem stable in the heat, i.e., 105 degrees F track temp, so Ken made a setup that seems faster and more stable to me. Reid liked it to. I have attached it below.

I ran a QS last night and best lap was 1:20.996. I had to take wing down to 3 to do that, but I think 4 is safer for racing. Not sure where that will put us, likely in a lower split, but then there likely won't be any DPs if in a lower split given all the ferraris in PSs.

 

[Kenadian]

If Bedo is registering for your Team (as I suggest he does) you'll be in a much higher split.

Ultimately it's up to you but if he's doing the first stints then it only makes sense.

If I am the only one that qualified, should he still register? I thought they placed you in a split by QT and then grid position was determined by iRating, which can be averaged. Or maybe it is different than how it works for VLN.

 

[Kenadian]

Is Bedo not going to put down a Qualify Time?

I think he should if he has time to do it.

 

[Kenadian]

@Nejtun, try editing the original post.

If it errors remove the smiley from your Forum Signature, save Profile and then try and re-edit original post.

Let me know what happens, thanks.

 

[Deb]

I don't think he has time. He may not be able to practice until early tomorrow morning, so I would think it will just be mine.

 

[Nejtun]

he can always kill two birds with one stone and use the qually session to also do practice? the weather is the same as the race and the qually sessions go off every single hour at 5 minutes past

 

[Jes_971]

@Brainling Set feels good (thanks again, Nejtun!). What laps times are you averaging, Matt?

 

[Brainling]

@Jes_971 Low I:19's, I can put down low 1:18's in qualifying trim (one click of wing less, little adjustments to the rear ride height and almost no fuel). I can probably touch the 1:17's in qualifying with practice.
