[Special Events] 2024 iRacing 24 Hours of Daytona

V5 seems to be ok all round, just so we are all on the same page I renamed it.

 

[Noodleguitar]

Did you "rename" the spring stiffness, ride heights and wing angle as well in this version?

 

[Deb]

Particularly if we do the Friday start, I can probably take more than 2 stints, maybe 3, 4 at max if we break them up between Friday and Saturday.

 

[Noodleguitar]

Did a full stint with the setup that feels a bit more stable. 23 laps.

Ferrari 296 GT3 - IMSA Version files, paint and mip attached.

Screenshots can be found here.

Apologies for the delay, this is one of the most difficult vehicles to skin that I've had to tackle in recent memory.

 

[Nejtun]

Nice one Ken! this looks great

Uhm - I hate to write this, but I might have a problem. My internet is gone since this morning (for ~10 hours at the time of writing this).

I suspect the culprit being the renovation work in the flat next door - I was able to catch one of the handyman and they said they cut some telephone lines this morning, which should only belong the flat next door. I don't know anything about the phone wiring in this apartment building, but based on the timing, I suspect they cut my internet connection as well.

A technician of the internet service provider will be here on Thursday morning. At the moment, I have no idea how long it will take them to find and fix the issue.

Damn, that is an annoying and unnecessary problem to have.

@Kenadian Could you fill out your availability please!? I remember you saying you would like to open which is cool, but we need to fill out the whole thing!

Hi Nejt, apologies but it appears as if I'm no longer available.

I've lost Friday off due to a Management Meeting scheduled affecting our companies largest Customer; a project I've been working on for over 6 months now.

We may also lose a good potion of Saturday as the Lower Mainland is in panic mode over an impending snow storm. At current, half the Company isn't coming in on Wednesday.

Given the uncertainty of these factors, I have to bow out.

Sincerest apologies for the late notice, I've simply no control over either and both hit me within the last few hours.

 

[Nejtun]

Ahh boo, that is a shame! Well I hope you can get better timing luck for the next one Ken!

Ya d00d, I am so deeply sorry!

I will say though, this is the one time the weather man got it right. It started snowing around midnight and hasn't stopped since. We've now over 1 foot of snow which is crippling around here.

I'm not even going to try driving up my alleyway, very beautiful.

With this view, you'd never know I live close enough to see Downtown New Westminster, the Quay with a nearly, unobstructed view of the Fraser River.

On a clear day I can actually see Mount Baker in Whatcom County, Washington, USA.

The shape in the bottom right corner is my Banana Tree, having some issues with the cold.

Hey all, I'm back. Had to stay over 2 days due to the bad weather that hit on Monday and Tuesday. So back today and will practice tomorrow. I haven't heard anymore from Reid, so I assume he is not driving. Also, Ogami told me today he got called for a four day, so he is not available either

 

[ShadniX]

Unfortunately, I won't be able to drive. I don't want to get too much into detail, so the short version: I had an accident at home and need to recover from that first.

I hope you get better quickly!!!

Good luck to you all, I have too many activities this weekend so I won't be able to join in the fun.

Well done, everyone! Another one finished and in the books!

 

[Deb]

Yeah, great job to everyone!!!! Congrats to Kate on her first endurance race!!!!

 

[Noodleguitar]

Nice job on getting to the finish, everyone! It has been a number of years for me since I did Daytona. The track is still boring but the race is still good

BTW, the main time slot on Saturday had 45 splits :O. The SoF of the top split on Friday was equal to split 5-6 in the main time slot, crazy.

 

[Noodleguitar]

Despite the fact that we only had six GT3s for a large part of the race, they were still a nice traffic challenge occassionally.
