B2O iRacing 24H of Nürburgring Team Discussion

don't forget that a lot of top split setups (VRS) are built around trail braking which is so much more difficult with higher brake bias. learning how to trail brake with low BB can gain you so much time in the porsche.

but then again in the end it's still driver preference, whatever you can be the fastest with

i won't be running tonight since i have a ridiculously busy day tomorrow. hopefully i'll be there tommorow night

also to our top team: do you guys drive VRS setups? i need to get used to normal setups and not my 101% understeer VLN setup.

 

[Kenadian]

I won't be able to make it on tonight folks. I'm feeling under the weather and suffering from Vertigo and severe headaches as well, bizarre.

I got to work late and will probably leave early to see if I can sleep whatever this is off tonight.

 

[Sam Roselaar]

And ken, i hope you get well soon. At least you got half day off work

 

[Jes_971]

I couldn't help myself. Watching the V8 series from Tasmania and had to do a little driving of my own.

 

[Deb]

Sorry to hear that, I hope you get better quick Ken

I'm doing the Reddit iRacing League this season and one of the last races is V8's at Lime Rock. Yeah...V8's at Lime Rock, you read that right.

 

[Nejtun]

Hope you feel better soon Ken. Vodka helps I have heard, and Whiskey. try both!

Hey guys, I am going to put up a hosted with morning weather for Nurburgring at Midnight GMT so we can all get some more practice in, with all the cars rather than just the Porsche feel free to join for Practice Pals.

 

[Sam Roselaar]

wasn't planning on racing tonight cuz tired but i might hop in if i feel adventurous

 

[Nejtun]

Feel free Sam, it should go up in 10 minutes if i have done things properly and the weather is set to morning so everyone can get a more realistic feel for the conditions next week

 

[Brainling]

I didn't get to put in any practice last night because I had a date...so I'm going to be practicing tonight. If people want to practice cars other than the Porsche I can put up a hosted session.

 

[Noodleguitar]

I'll be practicing some in a bit as well.

 

[Deb]

I'm out tonight, have a lesson, should e on tomorrow night. Wonder if Duke is any better.

 

[Sam Roselaar]

Noël pls try the VRS setup with 100l i like it, fairly fast, fairly safe

i included VRS and VRS with 100l

 

[Sam Roselaar]

i'll practice tonight. do we have a session up?
i'm planning on joining next race. which will be at 1:45 GMT. anyone joining me?

i tried racing last race but i got wrecked by a fucking retard who decided 4 wide into turn 1 was a great idea (yes this actually happened)
natural selection clearly not doing it's job.

yes i'm pissed.....

I've attached the set I'm currently running. It has 4 wing and seems to be set up a bit more aggressively than the VRS setup (which I haven't tried yet). Feel free to try to it out if you have time. So far I've gotten a 8:29.0 with it on full fuel, which felt like a pretty good lap.

I was surprised that the weather in the Porsche cup was afternoon, I thought it was going to be morning. I'm still planning to do some practice and qualifying in that weather and hopefully get a few races in this weekend.

Edit: added the set.

Don't forget, the week before the 12 Hours of Sebring, IMSA was at Sebring.... night...

 

[Sam Roselaar]

noël what do you run for the porsche cup? the set you sent has 100L in it

 

[Noodleguitar]

Haven't ran that yet. Probably something similar with less fuel.

 

[Brainling]

I ran both of my Porsche cup races on the raw VRS setup (it's setup for that race, with the right amount of fuel), and it was fine. It's wing 5, which I know Noel prefers 4, but for me it's been stable and quick.
