I have a question regarding the Porsche Cup car.

The list says the minimum weight allowed is 2641. But you can only reach that with different rims, but the build below the list says Stock Wheel.

I'm confused.

Hey dude,

Will get weight corrected believe its from Porsche Super Cup data any way car should be -

2011 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup - 745PI - 15% Power handicap
-Front Tyre Width 270
-Rear Tyre Width 300
-Race Brakes
-Stock Wheels

Weight TBC

by **Koenigsegg R** Fri 30 Nov 2012 - 22:10

i need to know how i can get the toyota altezza to A570 even though i have put the correct uprades on it and got it to 345bhp. if i added wider tires on it would it take it upto 570 pi?

Just sent you a friend request so I can gift you a build (needs tuning).

Just a word of warning to those yet to qualify.

First, I don't know if this is standard procedure for qualy or whether it was just our lobby but the format may catch you out momentarily like it did with me.

Part way through my first flying lap I was close to quitting out as I realised that the position counter in the top left corner of the screen read as 1/1. On top of that there was no compare best lap score and utter silence in the lobby (usually a good thing), everything was telling me I'd lagged out and I didn't know what to do. Eventually someone coughed and I knew I was ok but that was one precious lap ruined by fretting about the situation.

If you find yourself in this situation, don't worry, keep going, I've already done the research and have sacrificed one of my qualifying laps to bring you this information

Sorry dude some 1 should of called out!

It's ok chief, to be honest it didn't have much bearing on the other 4 laps which I messed up all by myself Rolling Eyes

Cheers for the heads-up Cob, I might have a practice with those lobby settings so it doesn't freak me out when I come to qualify!

by TMG Sarrazin 8x Mon 3 Dec 2012 - 12:05

I'd much rather have it set to compare best lap scores, it at least gives you something to aim for rather than quickly pressing the pause button a bad/dirty lap to see how you're doing against other drivers in the same class. :/

by **Richy59** Mon 3 Dec 2012 - 12:13

I can't comment as I haven't been involved in the qualy procedure, but maybe he was the only person in his class, hence why he was 1/1 and had no other times to compare to even if compare times was on?

I must say, it feels odd to be racing a BMW! I spend enough time working on real ones lol, I deserve some time behind the wheel of a racing Bimmer!

Now that you've said this I think I know what the issue was.

As you will see later on, the lobby is divided into 3 groups and corresponding colours; SP1, SP1 Cup and SP3. However, SP3 is actually sub-divided into SP3 FWD and SP3 RWD making a total of 4 groups.

I distinctly remember being the only person in the SP3 FWD group and so my position counter correctly read as 1/1. I suppose this shouldn't be a problem for the other sessions as more people will be involved but it is worth noting that if you find yourself apparently lapping the track by yourself, all may not be as it seems Suspect

Thanks Cobblepop for pointing this out. With my pace, I guess I will circulate on my own somewhere miles behind all others... Smile

Hey all.

I have to work on saturday at 1 pm. but stint 1 runs for me at 8am-10am

So i am definitely available for any teams that need a driver for the 1st stint.

I possibly might be able to do the 2nd stint as well, depending how on time everything is.

Even if an emergency arises and someone cant make it. I will be around on saturday morning just to view all the goings on anyway.

I'd prefer a Porsche Cup car or GT3 car. as i'm rubbish around here in the slower cars that have a lot of bounce to them...i usually flip them Embarassed
