You want to run for the Daytona Roar 2.4 hours? I’m down.

 

[m4nu]

Don’t know yet which car honestly. I’d rather stick to the GTE’s though. So whichever GTE car Manu likes we will run. Ferrari is easier to drive and can be quick but the Ford is strong here as well especially through the bus stop.

Okay I try to be serious now. Lets go with the piggie

@Gxbbs, do you know if you will be driving this one?

 

[Pamellaaa]

Looks like we have another car sorted (#66 if available) in myself, @Corbs, @Bassetts and @ramiboo.

Edit: Car TBC, but one of the GTEs

 

[Tom]

Strong line ups all around so far

@Gxbbs, do you know if you will be driving this one?

I'm going to try to. If nothing pops up that weekend I should be able to come home saturday evening

Oh yeah I am in just hook me up with any team and car

 

[Alex du Plessis]

Done my first testing at Daytona with default weather 100% track wear with full tank and I am quite happy just need to get the bus stop sorted as I am losing quite a bit of time there. Other corners can go slightly better and I think I will hit 1.42's although not sure what is a good time with the Ferrari GTE.

 

[falcon2081]

High 41’s to low 42’s is the target time.

 

[Puffpirat]

Do you have a baseline Ford setup for Daytona?

 

[Alex du Plessis]

Brilliant thank you Falcon now I know what to aim for.

Do you have a baseline Ford setup for Daytona?

I tried this one: http://iracingsetupsync.nickthissen.nl/Setups/Index?teamId=263&carId=576&trackId=29
It is very good. I was able to to drive low 42s out of the box with this one.

[EDIT]: Of course the race setup

 

[grobi0815]

Can someone tell me, what the best tire temperature is for the GTE cars? And the ideal oil and water temperatures?

on iRacing you don't have to look at water / oil unless you are doing oval races.
As for the temperatures, you have to check the tirepressures although we've been checking out different pressures the past week and compared them with tirewear. In general with 117-125-ish you should be ok.
Pretty sure if you drive under the RSR banner, the setup wizard Falcon will assist

 

[Corbs]

@grobi0815 @Puffpirat that set has too short gear ratios too race with, so i've just uploaded the modified set i raced with at daytona last season these ratios are not perfect in the low speed corners but top speed is good. As dutch said oil & water temp dont matter unless you get damage and cold pressures of 117-127 kpa are about right. I've done a 1:41.9 on 100% track state and average is low 42's

 

[F1-Masa]

setup work i say high 40 is possible.

 

[grobi0815]

We will practice a bit for 2 hours, if someone wants to join.
