Round 4 CTMP Mosport - Sun Aug 16, 2020

The only way is for a GT3 driver to unregister so you become green.

 

Actually in the ACC WTC , the next race (spa) will be a night time start/day time finish ..
carry on ….

 

We have been constantly trying to solve the red light "no show" issue, its not a simple fix as players sometimes are not able to get to there PC's to unregister & some simply just don't have the courtesy to unregister .. We have some Ideas in the mix & its talked about at every admin meeting ..
One idea' was to have the password hidden to all with a "confirm" button that goes up 24hrs before the race so once you hit 'confirm' the PW is revealed .. & If you don't confirm you get a red light .. Just ideas for now & it all needs to be possible within the code ect..

.. we are constantly trying to solve this .

 

Had to pull out i was sweating buckets to uncomfortable to carry on.

 

I will remove 2 x no-shows after this race. That will free up a lot of space on the GT3 front.

 

If you read post 4, you will see that the formation lap procedure was explained in great detail. So it should not have been a great surprise in warm-up before the race.

 

No worries , tuff break for both of us ! I was trying to hug the right to give max room & was puzzled how you still managed to clip me , then watching the replay I saw you lost grip on the curbs & were out of sorts .. That's racing ! & Thx for the apology

 

Great racing again guys ! Mosport is one of those tracks that has great rhythm & once you get it' its great fun ! The long hi speed sweepers just keep flowing & the tightest turn on the track is aided by the steep uphill downshift area & is a really fun turn ! The speed deference between the DPI's & the GT3's was startling ! Kept us on our toes for sure

I inherited a few spots only to give them all back with pit stop errors & DPi collisions ! (my first stop trying to be quick ,I lost the rear breaking into my pit stall as I slid in I hit the wall ! I had ZERO time to toggle the "do not fix damage" so I sat there while my crew happily fixed the scratch in the paint ..lol It added an extra 64 seconds to my 'what seemed like forever' stop .. This would prove pivotal as when I came out Barrett had just lost it in T2 the down hill left hand sweeper & hit the wall ?, As i came around to finish that lap I took that position- 9th, only to give it right back after he came out from his stop , (I'm thinking "that 64 seconds would be nice to have back") ..however with Barrett's pace I'm sure he would have some how caught me as time ran out .. As it was I found myself in 10th (over all) after Barrett blew by me to take 9th .. I could see in the timings that Fausto (8th place) was some 40 seconds ahead of us . Barrett started pulling away from me .. as my gap to him grew, I noticed the gap to Fausto was coming down this was with about 30 min remaining .. I was on a 2 stopper & had just got fresh rubber fro the last 30 min & I saw that Barrett had indeed caught & passed Fausto to take 8th & that theirs a slight chance I might catch him as well ! So with fresh rubber it was back to full concentration, hitting my marks , trying not to crash , trying to save rubber .. after 20 min or so I could see him up ahead & the gap was like 8 seconds . I figured "he must be on a 1 stopper & his tires are toast !?" or "he's saving gas?" either way the gap was closing fast .. with about 5 min to go I caught up to him and was in pursuit looking to gain another position & I could see where he was struggling ,his tires must have been gone .. as we crossed the line with 1 to go I made a move on the outside of turn one & was able to make it stick !
When it was all said & done Great racing & congrats to the podiums !
Cu all next round !
