MSA TORA GT World Championship - Endurance Series Round 3 - Nurburgring Full - March 3rd 7PM GMT

what going on with these times? you've altered peoples finishing times. Regardless of what you add on or take away your finishing time is what the clock says as you cross the line. This morning Demo marksmen's finishing time was 14.43 now its 14.55.

I'm lost with all this tbh.

Look up 5 posts

i have, E lobby had 28 secs to make to up A lobby. 28 secs from 14.43 doesn't come to 14.55

I managed to 3-stop the Viper (crossed the line with ~88-89% tire wear).

Replay is on my SF

Overall, my subbing experience in this event (except for my botched qualifying) was a great success. I finished 161 miles at 14:47 with three pit stops...got ya by 0:12 seconds Roadrunner. Too bad for the lobby penalty or i would have finished bottom A top B. Thanks for the opportunity to sub for you XPR. Lobby D had some fantastic racing. For the first pit segment we were all bumper to bumper in the front. Clean and smooth butt puckering driving. I managed to open some distance after the first pit but with different pit strategies I found myself battling drivers multiple times for position (JamesHall mostly with his two pit strategy that had me sweating up until the final 15 minutes). That made driving with these tires a sell for me. Not knowing exactly where everyone was with their tires really added another dynamic to the race. Great idea! Nice work out there D lobby. The top 5 drivers in Lobby D from my perspective drove brilliantly. I would definitely consider joining the field for the rest of this championship.

Great racing Cain- I lost my head a little after being bulked by 3 GT4 cars and you taking the position. Not taking it away from them or you - I would have done exactly the same. Best race for me by far this season.

Same time next week boys?

It was stressful race... Congrats for BloodyCain.

Thanks friend...nice driving out there.

All results are provisional for now till aero is back in the, all versions of the sheet are saved so it won't be wrong. No one has ever stayed with Chris to see how he works out the end part of the results

OK, no problem

Yeah...that was a tight moment that I managed to get through pretty well. Either way...we had a great battle...nice driving bro. Definitely my funnest and most competitive endurance race through TORA.

Not sure where you're going with this statement Franchitti, I'm quite happy with the result, I was passed Soundwave when he had his lag issue and the only reason he got through in the first place was because I locked up when he lagged so close I panicked. I think you would have both struggled to pass me even though I was slower than the pair of you. Wumba's times in practice were capable of running in the "A" lobby so the 1000ft Wumba had by the time soundwave got passed me should have been maintained, with you probably getting held up for another 1000ft before you could have pushed past me. My BMW was only slow in the uphill esses, and I was a little worried through the final chicane, but parking on the apex and fireing off down the straights worked well. I'm sorry your race was messed up but I think there were 8 BG members running this weekend with I think 6 of us running good clean races and 2 involved in collisions, I hope the stewards have a good look at everything that happened.

Peace out dude...

Its +4 seconds per lobby that adds up to 16 seconds, B=4 C=8 D=12 E=16,

Well...in that case my time isn't correct either. I am listed with a final time of 13:47/161 in Lobby D but my actual finishing time was 14:47/161. I'm sure they will get it figured out.

The times for each lobby are also adjusted for the start time to make up for any variance on the pace lap.

That could be just a one-off error though

It seems pretty consistent throughout the people.

This seems horribially complicated, i'm just gonna nod and and continue Harlem Shaking in my Lokart 2 -Eleven for Silverstone

why has Mrtrazza scored 155 miles,one more than me,
but he's finished with a huge gap behind me,how goes that?

Yes, i realise that Myles, but this was the answer Chucky gave me with start times taken into account.

A lobby, times stayed (start time- 1.57.12, so 2:48 warm up lap)
B lobby, added 9 seconds (as they started 5 seconds before A lobby and then the 4 seconds lobby split)
C lobby, added 28 seconds (8 seconds lobby split and 20 seconds before A lobby)
D lobby, add on 3 seconds (as started 9 seconds after A lobby and then 12 seconds for lobby split so taken off from that.)
E lobby, minus 12 seconds (as started 28 seconds after A lobby and 16 seconds lobby spilt)

I reckon I would have passed ya Blackbird and I had a car with the same tune as the pole man. Plus during the race when Wumba lapped me he wasn't going much quicker, and I had 70% ear aero.

I think you could have passed me mate, however what's ear aero... is that where you have big ears and stick your head out the window to slow down

you weren't in C....

I thought I was, D then? I got juggled around abit

Live T says 13.45 where i expected to lose 8secs making about 13.08

Error? otherwise. woohoo 19place

Newt, thats maybe my fault by mis-reading a result maybe? I wrote down 13.45 when I took the scores. With everyone doing doughnuts and such like its hard to hear what people are saying. Sorry dude.

Yeah, LNStanding was behind me and Gaz I think and I was a 13:44.........lol.

I think its safe to say everybody has made a hash of the times.

In all respect though we do appreciate the effort you guys have put in to cover for others.

After lagging out in qualifying forcing me to start from the back of lobby E, I'd 3rd place for the GT4s is a fantastic result for me!

Great first race at TORA, thanks to everyone I was racing with in my lobby, apologies to the GT3 cars down the straights, my Lotus is actually that slow
