AC Group C @ Monza - Tuesday 27th April 2021

[Kek700]

If you are thinking about the blown C9, that was a gearbox, some here use a manual gear box’s, probably like me you use paddles.

Ah ok, engines must be tough! I thought he over revved the engine and blew it.
I've got a gearstick alright. Driving a group c car with one hand is great fun

 

[Reik Major]

Haha, I was wondering if you would go straight back to the ST. Lucky for me, I said i would use all 4 cars and have only the LT left

Well, I tested the two Porsches and the C9 and I have to say, throwing around the ST is the most fun. But straight line speed beats cornering speed here, so I go for the challenge with the C9 again.

I'm in! I can't register on SGP though.
Can I choose my car after some practice?

Hi Sylvain I've added you with car tbd. Just let me.know before 1700 utc on tuesday

 

[Noctam]

Thanks Brian!
It's on the modern Monza?

It is indeed. Practice server #02 should be running.

So if I get it right, you can run the C9 at 100% the entire race despite the constant engine damage indicator? If so, please assign me a C9.

The turbo models are so much faster at Monza, I guess if you choose the ST or Mazda, you plan on being the only one not going to a wall for the entire race and that's where you make a come back!

I'm struggling to have both the correct pressure and the right temperature with those cars, how do you guys handle it, do you favor the pressure or do you compromise them to get enough temp (especially in the front)?

You're in withe the C9!

Ye it's all about the tyre pressure. We've upped the track temp to 32 for this to try and get a bit of heat into the hard compound.

 

[Taj Johal]

Tried the LT for the first time, that turbo dial is wickedly dangerous and addictive

Just hope I always find the right gears shifting down tomorrow, otherwise the mechanics will be busy putting the engine and gearbox back together !!

 

[Noctam]

I tried a 20min race with the turbo at 100% and you finish the race with black smoke at the back so I have to agree @Taj Johal , one should not miss-shift too much or else...
I'm so excited for tomorrow!

 

[640er]

There’s an easy solution to that

100% always

Me too seeing this illustre grid. Epic LT vs C9 battle incoming

 

[Interslice]

Apologies gents/ @640er , I won't be able to make this. I'm sure it will be a good one!

My money is on ernie coming 5th in race one

 

[Erik Axelsson]

I got the brilliant idea of starting operating on my monitor. There's a rattling noise from inside when driving and it's driving me crazy. I decided to open it up to see if I can fix it. My plan is to get it back together before tonight's race. But if I don't show up you know why

*nervous laughter

@640er @Interslice please sign me in with Porsche LT. Thanks

@640er @Interslice please sign me in with Porsche LT. Thanks

You're on the list!

edit: changed my mind

 

[Chris Down]

Sadly, since I was really looking forward to this, going to have to sign out. Got a lot of stuff at work and pretty sure I won't be done by race time. Have fun folks
