In fact it's only showing default helmet and suit as well. Okey dokey, will try that, cheers.

 

[2scoops]

Nope, still not working.

 

[ramiboo]

re-install the trading paints app. I had to do that a week or two ago.

 

[2scoops]

Uninstalled, reinstalled, nope

@ramiboo @Bassetts @2scoops please set up the teams tonight and invite the drivers you need.

@ramiboo, a team #65 exists already but @Yorkie_065 is the admin of it. Make sure that @Yorkie_065 invites you and makes you an admin. Then you should invite the other 3 drivers. Kick everyone else out of the team.

@Bassetts @2scoops you have already a team with the number #66. Same procedure for you, invite the drivers you need and kick everyone else out.

I do not want to run into any issues again like in Sebring *hust* @Yorkie_065 *hust* I will sort out team #64. Once everything is done I will hand out the liveries to you.

We hope you like them, liveries are finalized!!

Is there an updated Pit Crew Suit for the event. Mine is currently the Daytona set. From the look of it, you don't apply that to the team so I assume the crew suit is just loaded from what each driver is running, can anyone confirm that?

**EDIT** found it here

 

[2scoops]

How do you apply the livery to the team, had a look, must be blind.

@GioVtec made updated versions with triangles like our livery. But those are just locally visible.

The one you took are outdated

 

[ramiboo]

You can't, as the team owner at the moment I've done it. The Livery is assigned to the Team ID so Trading paints on your system should pull down the livery for that ID.

Ahhhhhhhhh,

I'll try to find the Gio Suit.

They are not online in the forum. Try his trading paint page maybe.

@2scoops what works 100% is if you have the .tga file rename it to car_PersonalID.tga and save that in the iRacing - Cars - Audi R8
After reloading it should work fine.

Make sure to also put a local copy of the livery in the iRacing folder. In case trading paints does not work you can at least still have the livery show in game.

 

[GioVtec]

I'll do small tweaks right now to the suit.

Renamed it and put it in the paint - car folder, still showing default scheme.

 

[Soulah]

Did some testing with B wing, where do I lose most of my time?

 

[falcon2081]

Stick with C wing. It will give you a more stable car while only losing a little bit of time.

That's the oddest thing ever.
Normally you bypassed everything by adding that .tga file in the cars folder which forces iRacing to load it.

Did some practice qualifying and did pretty well today. Surprised to get that 8:11.622. Hopefully I can break into the lower single digits. I also recorded a video of that 8:11 run as well as overlaying the throttle/brake inputs for you guys to watch and analyze as it was requested of me. Video will be up in the morning sometime. I'll update you guy's when its done.

@falcon2081 @ramiboo i checked VRS driving stats on my yesterdays stint. Actually i did outlap+6 full laps and had 14,82ltrs left at the start finish line. That means that it is possible to do a 8 lap stints if you save little bit of fuel. My max consumption was 15.11ltrs a lap. If i do 8:30 a lap my 7 lap stint would last exactly 1 hour (excluding pit stop time). That means 8 lap stints are not that necessary. But maybe we should refill to ~110ltrs instead of 120ltrs to save some weight and refuel time?

Do not go this route^^ We tried saving fuel last year and it gave us literally nothing. Just drive your stint and refuel by the end of it to 120L

You need 105L to do 7 laps with ~15liter/lap, fueling up to 110L saves a bit of time in the pit & weight on the car since you said it yourself "saving fuel gave us nothing".
Doesn't sound much but over a 24 hours race it'll gain you well over a full stop.
