RD Le Mans Series Season 4 (rFactor)

[Mateusz Bogusz]

No, I am no complaining, everyone makes mistakes, just some weird actions, nothing more.

 

[Benjamin Thiermann]

But the video is nice Looks like some guys have no nightvision xD

 

[Scott Webber]

Hm we did reports after Sebring and no futher actions has been taken So will be there penalties to this race? When yes, our reports coming from our LMP1 car. So we need replay to do this

it's not down to me to decide the penalties, that's the league staff's job ... also i cannot say yes or no if a incident is reported & let you know the outcome, all incidents are different ! , so because there was no penalty in the last race after you filed a report you won't report for this race?

You dont give the organisation much time to sleep guys After 10 hours of broadcasting I am sure Marco has other priorities than uploading a huge replay file on the fly.

I looked through all my conversations again today, because I did not see any reports from you, and I still can not find any. Could you please explain where you sent your reports to?

 

[James Johnson]

My fastest lap of the race. 1.45.565

 

[Matt Strand]

nice lap James. kinda cool to see the setup and car differences. For instance you shifted 46 times in the lap. Our hot lap in the R10 at a 46.1 we only shifted 29 times. I find that kinda stuff interesting haha

 

[Sander van Schaik]

My fastest lap of the race. 1.45.565

You're welcome for the slipstream at 0:25

I did about 2 hours in the car and it could have gone better.....

Jumped into the car when we were in second "just" over a minute behind the SfH car and only a 10-ish seconds ahead of the SRVN car (I think it was).

Settled into a good low 09 pace (which is very fast for me at this track, it never likes me and I don't find it nice either....) and also did a couple of 08's during the middle of the first stint.

With a few laps left before I was going to go for the pits Roy, who was my spotter, asked how much fuel I had left and as I was looking at the fuel gauge I missed my braking point for Canada by about half a car and slammed into the wall sustaining suspension damage and a puncture.

Went for the pits and about 70 second later I was on my way again.

Had only one real scare in the second stint.

Going into T6 I had a GT1 car I think that lapped me before the corner and the only reason I was able to snap up that a P2 car dived for the inside as well from quite far back is that I'm a touring car driver so I always, without exception, throw a quick glance into the mirrors as I begin to turn in. I threw he wheel to the right and managed to get out of the way of them. I think it was the Simco Hungarian P2 car but I have no idea who was driving the car as my own replay don't let me go to that car

Coming towards the end of my second stint I did almost the same thing at Canada but I couldn't see my brakeingpoint instead and I clamped the wall with my right side and thought it was ok.
Coming into T3 I was proved wrong as I went almost straight ahead but I was going slow enough to to go more than a car-width off track.

Thankfully Roy was ready to jump into the car but without any warm-up laps but I think that went allright in the end

Also sorry to all those who came up to me after I had spun it at Canada about 2h15 into the race. Braked a bit too late and had a slow spin in the gravel while I read a book before it stopped and then a few GT1 and Prototypes went passed. I hope I didn't compromise any of yours races there


Thank you to everyone that was racing yesterday and everyone did a good job at lapping except some brave manouvers like that of the SH car and a couple of lappings at the fast kink on the backstretch.

See you all at Le Mans

 

[Richard Blokker]

I think it will be the layout form 1996.

 

[Benjamin Thiermann]

I think we have send it remco. For this race The report coming to you. But we have to wait for The replay.
Thanks for your help

@UP:

I am not 100% sure which version it is we will be using (as in the exact name), but we have a fully prepared version, which is updated to 2012/2013 layout, and fits all our needs. It will be available in SimSync soon.

 

[Richard Blokker]

Hmm, it was the idea to use the 1996, but that is changed i see.

 

[Adam Mocarski]

Why use old layouts, if there are new one and works well.

 

[Marcel Offermans]

We're working on it.

 

[Rui F. Martins]

no. 5 action was actually the first in the race, when making this i forgot about it. All of the clips here was taken from my last 1.5 hours change.
To the 1 action: First and only one time in whole race I decided to overtake a GT here. ehhhh....

That was really wery weird race. I woke up at 11, and realised that i hadn't got any setup for the race, but thankfully one person which had the setup came in and I was rescued :S In the end, after that CL and, idk, maybe slow driving from teammates or problems 3rd position is not bad, but also it is not good because we had speed, and we lost about 3 laps to the next team.

Again, I got a CL and I have no idea why. Same as this on Sebring restart, almost identical situation, on 1/4 of the lap i realised that i got disconnected and there was a race for fast rejoin. I have to do something with that or just someone else from my team must make starts on every single race here. What is funny, only here I got CL's. In other same-type league the grid procedure takes longer and I don't have any problems with that. Only here.

it was me at 3, i missed the braking point, braking much later, when i realied it 3was tioo late i braked as hard as i could to avoid your carbut i spun. I hope i didn't hit you, i tried my best to avoid your car, sorry about that

 

[Matt Strand]

number 4 was after the race was already over and we were messing around with our cars trying to figure out bump drafting around a bend which we didn't quite get right.

 

[Marco Bijl]

LeMans. It will be the 1996 layout. Simple reason, there where to many uncertainties with the 2012 version, and for the 24 hour event, we prefer a proven stable track instead of a risk, even if its a small one.

The track will be in Simsync early this week. Doing my best to get it in tonight, but can't be certain of that yet. Will do my best.
Also have to upload the replays. Will do my best to get it all arranged before Wednesday. Took half a day off from work tomorrow to increase the odds I can get it all done.

 

[Benjamin Thiermann]

Yeah the 1996 Version is very nice, but little problems are on the track since the cutting problem. Ford Chicane are very easy to cut. So in others leagues the track has been updated by admins with anticuts or gravel. Maybe do the same here?

 

[Marco Bijl]

Benjamin Thiermann, that's why I was talking about
a - Only the layout
b - putting the track in simsync later this week .

Have to look into those points as well, to make sure its cutting proof and have to check other aspects as well.
