B2O iRacing 24 Hours of Le Mans 2017

[Skid_Marc_]

Only 29 stints? @Noodleguitar, you.. fuckin.. sissy..!

How is the Ford that fast in a straight line? That is AMAZING! Just think how irritating that will be for GT1's...

Also, I REALLY wanted to get Noël and Ken in the same car for this race...

...so @Duke...

...I think you better get your Ford GT seat time in... buddy...

 

[Sam Roselaar]

i want to change my 2nd choice to ford if possible 1st would still be corvette

 

[Kenadian]

I'll run the fraud if you really want me to.

It's more about the betterment of the Team for me @Zac_Sonic rather than having any sort of you know, fun or enjoyment.

 

[Skid_Marc_]

P2 cars have their logo's all over the place... You'll have to decide which layout suits the template the best. Pretty much, as long as the Tyre and oil sponsor are represented on all four corners, and there is at least one Michelin/Dunlop text logo on each side. Porsche is the only team I can find that uses Mobil 1, the big Honda team (there are no actual "Factory" teams in P2) uses Total, and all of the other P2's I can find use Motul.

 

[Sam Roselaar]

i just read @Zac_Sonic informative endurance post in CENTRALISED information, best book i've ever read
i just wanted to say that for me the more seat time the better. i would even be willing to try a 2-man 24h.

are we hosting another session tonight?

 

[Kenadian]

It's up to you guys if you host tonight. I only #PP Mon, Wed, and Fri as it's all I have time for.

...and even that's debatable.

 

[Skid_Marc_]

Yeah, Sam. Its good to get a head start, but it is WAY too early for me to want to do it every day, all week. There is no reason for this to start to eclipse the regular B2O streams! Remember that the event is iRacing's Week 13, so we won't have any league, or other iRacing series going on that week, so we'll be able to devote every #PracticePals and maybe even some other nights into it.

They key is to not get burned out on it too quick.. I don't want to puke this track before we even get to week 13!

 

[Sam Roselaar]

i just love this track too much, even if i'd practice 24/7 from now on i wouldn't get sick of it

but that's ok, i'll see if anyone is doing something. (maybe you @Nejtun? )

 

[Kenadian]

BTW @Sam Roselaar, I beat your time and the lap I was on was so f'n good I could have squashed your time by close to a full second had I not zipper-headed out.

Ken "The Man" Lindberg = 3.52.777
Sam "English is not my first language" Glwuaguallagua = 3.52.917

You still may be the better driver but last night I made you my bitch little man.

...and I didn't have to burn off most of my fuel to do it, that was full load my friend, well mostly full, the rest was on your chin.

Oh and btw, I have something much better than a screenshot, I have witnesses and video for posterity:

ahahahaaahahahahhaaahahahaahahahaaaahahahaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

I'm probably going to make a VOD out of this and rub it in your face whenever you open that gaping maw located directly under your nose.

l0ve d00key

PS: you suck!

 

[Skid_Marc_]

All I got out of that clip was that Ken thinks that Intel's i7 4790k processor is a "Has-Fail"...

Yeah... sure... meanwhile, in the real world, its still one of the fastest, most popular and reliable processors, especially in single-thread applications...

What's better? Kaby-Lake? Plz...

 

[Sam Roselaar]

i got news for you buddy
just a couple hours ago Nejtun, who is also my witness in this, hosted a session with the exact same settings as last night. and this happened i wouldn't say it's a miracle because i'm just that much better

https://gyazo.com/3b47803e2640ccf9d9715a62f58549c6

so could you edit your post and change my time to 3:51,585, thanks!

also while you're at it, could you quickly hand me the title of better driver (who's the bitch now)

Yours most sincerely,
Sam "The better driver" Roselaar

PS: and you swallow

 

[Skid_Marc_]

@Nejtun got beat by Gordon Ramsay...

 

[Nejtun]

Gordon coaxed me off the track by lighting a sneaky fire and cooking up some goodies. couldn't resist, had to put it in the wall and enjoy the snacks

 

[Nejtun]

Annnnyway, as nobody is streaming until after midnight my time, I am going to put up another 2 hour session at 20:00 GMT ( thats an hour and 15 minutes from now ) So please feel free to join if you want to do a few laps!

Hey smart guy, it took you two sessions to be beat the time I put down in my first session.

I really wouldn't be bragging about that if I were you.

 

[Kenadian]

@Zac_Sonic, Hasfail:

That may be but given I'm on Ivy the difference between it and the next get Haswell wasn't that overwhelming (from what I heard at the time).

Of course I only looked at it for a very short time when I was considering another upgrade so that info is old and probably irreverent now.

...but I know you wouldn't be you if you couldn't pick away at something so please continue sir

 

[Nejtun]

Setups for the Corvette ( somewhere to start feel free to make changes ) and the HPD ( from VRS adjusted for max fuel ) are in the file browser on Teamspeak.

@Duke For some reason the more options button on the first post re directed me to a chrome error page suggesting that "un-usual activity on this page is preventing me from continuing" so i couldn't attach anything there.

 

[Kenadian]

@Nejtun whenever you experience a site level issue, please post it in this topic with as much detail as humanly possible.

This centralizes all issues and is easy to direct a Webhost to for insight into the matters.

 

[Nejtun]

Nice lot of sign ups so far! If you haven't put your name, car preference, and availability down yet then please do

For now though, we have a provisional team and driver list:

Please have a look through and let us know if it suits you or not, nothing is set in stone and we can change pretty much anything right now.

Ford GT:

Noel Luneburg
Pancake Morrow
Sam Roselaar

Aston Martin GT1:

Ken Lindburg
Deb Bennett
Jes Coleman
John Navara
Matt Holmes
Bedo Magardichian
Reid Westphal

Corvette or HPD (tbd) :

Marc Gammack
Luke Harris
Nejtun Cameron.

At the moment the Aston team has 8 sign ups with a few more to follow probably, so once the times to drive have been worked out and the amount of people finalised we may well end up with two Astons running!

 

[PancakesYUMMY]

assuming that the race starts 1pm GMT:
I can race 11pm GMT - 11am.

so basically the second half of the race or so

put me as potentially Ford as well. the way noel talks about the ford gets me all hot and bothered.
