Srry for staying in the pits. Had no fun at all in that rain. Everey single lap a crash And a visite to the pits. I was sick of it. Don't deserve any points.

You stayed in the race and finished it, think of it as your car had issues

Yeah it was a great race! Loved the rain, Storm did an amazing job! Thanks!!! You and Ash did a great job out there too, though... Had there not been some issues I would have had my hands and mirrors full, perhaps even a cockpit full of water from trailing you guys! To be honest until I drove in the rain for testing with GTOR prior to our withdrawal from GTPES and the rain-soaked VLN 4 upon my return in another team I would have hated the rain, but I think that I had a little edge in experience, that's all... I actually realised a little too late that I could run competitively in the rain whilst trying to fuel save. I didn't pit until the last half hour, when I pitted twice!

Haha, yep, I'm not nearly as experienced as you, so I wasn't able to keep us as much

If changing conditions is anything like at Nurburgring, instantly switching to RH once the rain dies off isn't a clever move. Nearly jeopardised VLN4 for Swift Autosport in doing so, glad SC was deployed after I heavily wreaked the car... Inters first, or wear out the wets until they're completely OFF the cliff, especially if you have three laps to go before a stint/driver change.

I will be, but can we delay the start until 20:30? That way I should be able to see the full race of the TUSC, and then the WEC race after we've finished.

I'm fine with that, the race will be 90mins so if we start no later than 20.30 i'm fine with delaying 30mins

Are we not doing 2 hour races anymore then?

Post by GTOR_True-blue-8 on Sept 19, 2015 18:11:18 GMT
we could, but with how long getting the room sorted etc, and people dropping during the race, I think 90mins may be better to stick with as it seemed a decent time period at spa
but what do others think?

Oh okay, fair enough. I don't mind, but the longer duration makes it more of a challenge. Is it a dry race?
