DP or GTE, no preference.

I think a few details need adding, here's the official thread https://members.iracing.com/jforum/posts/list/3664832.page

Thanks! I updated the thread.

I tried the BMW last night with the VRS set up. It is surprisingly fast and stable around the track. It handles the curbs well and you can be flat out through the last corner with no problem. I think this car is good option for endurance.

 

[Kenadian]

I'll run some practice on Wednesday as I'd love to drive the M8 for at least one Endurance event.

May as well, Road America is literally killing me.

 

[Slider]

I'm on nights until Friday, then I have 5 days off, so I'll put in my practice then. Deb, could you please share the setup here?

 

[Brainling]

Any GTE car, I'll drive what others want to drive. Porsche and Ferrari are my preference, but I have no issue with the M8.

 

[Deb]

Here you go

 

[Deb]

@Slider, right now it looks like we will be driving the Ferrari GTE. We haven't agreed on a setup yet but will post when we do. Not sure if there will be one team or two. Depends on how much everyone wants to drive.

 

[Slider]

@Deb Works for me. I've been called earlier today for a shift, but I'll be running laps tomorrow. Did some offline laps in GTEs just to get my groove back in.

 

[Slider]

@Brainling how much do you feel like driving? I am only working 2 nights this week, and am off from Friday morning and all weekend, so my own driving time is just about limitless, but in 2h stints. Other guys have various desires, so just let them know.

 

[Kenadian]

@Deb, can you please post the latest Ferrari setup, I forgot to

@All, the setup we shared last night was noah g00da, please disregard.

 

[Deb]

Sure, I will post later today when I get on my gaming computer.

 

[Slider]

One shared is no bueno? How much did the new change?

 

[Brainling]

The site was down yesterday, or I couldn't reach it, so I couldn't post to let you all know I wasn't going to be at practice yesterday. I had a social event that had been planned for a while.

I'll be around the rest of the week.

@Slider : I don't have any specific drive time requirements, but I always like to drive as much as I can feasibly without taking drive time for others who want it. If I'm going to do all the practice I like to do a reasonable amount of race laps as well.

 

[Deb]

Here is the current setup:

 

[Slider]

Thanks Deb.
Matt, I'm flexible, just mentioned you as you weren't on TS that moment. If some of us want to drive longer, we can split it into 2 and 3 driver teams, or stay with 5, which would be only 2h per driver for entire race.

 

[Brainling]

Who's the fifth? I've only seen four so far.

 

[Slider]

You, me, Ken, Deb, Reid.

 

[Slider]

The setup is...

As I mentioned to Deb and Matt, I won't be in next 2 days' evening practices due to night shift, but have done FFS today (JRT broke, no data) and during the days before the race.
