Damn, damn, damn .... qualified 13th ... and then the car stalls on the grid .... finally get it running and then teleported from the back to the pit lane .... everyone passess .... car locked for 1.5 minutes in the pit lane .... f#@% ... steam comes out of my ears ... slightly speeding in the pit lane .... 30 sec stop and go penalty ..... so I gave up. Also message about my pit strategy 'invalid 0/1' ?????? I had my pit strategy set?????
Don't know why the car stalls on the grid .... did have that before when driving with AI ... but never experienced it in a 'real' race. Also no clue why the game complaints about pit strategy, never had that before.
Advice on the subject much appreciated .........

Merry X-mas everyone and a happy 2021!

I have to apologize, especially to my teammate @T.rev.1
I had to quit race 17 minutes before the end. My wife needed computer, for some urgent job situation.

I am very sorry. I was at 10th fighting for 9th an 8th position.

You would have had me as well...

 

[kobusnell]

That was a great season. I'm definitely not as fast in the GT4s, but they sure are enjoyable.

Thanks @Ricardo Macieira , @Battenberg and everyone who got frustrated by my Merc's large behind. That was great.

Well, first of all, huge thanks to @Ricardo Macieira and @Battenberg . They don't get enough thanks for making this league work. Top job lads! Virtual pints all round.

I love Brands in the GT3, but I couldn't quite get into it with the BMW. I struggle with tyre temps, like most I think. I knew I could sneak into the 32's in qualy trim, so was happy with that. Race strategy was to go long in the first stint but the tyre temps just weren't there. I was about 1.5 psi down from where I needed to be, especially on the right hand side. Was able to sit behind @Battenberg for the first while, but @Josh blasted passed in the other M4 and there was no catching him. Stayed out with 40 minutes to go and changed my temps during the stop. Seemed to work much better and my first 4 laps after my stop were all faster each time. Got into a nice flow and went chasing after @Battenberg . I had some defending to do from @kobusnell but managed to hold off and get the tyres working again. Real shame that Tom spun, so I gained a place and finished in P5. Really pleased and a strong finish to my season.

See you all in the next season!

Brands Hatch, the last round of the season, it could have gone better if i didnt forgot to prepare my tires presure for pit stop. Doing an early pit didn't help having pressure way too low for the last 50 min. I survived the last 15min on a flat front right but i had the window to keep my position if i could keep the car on the track.

So qualy was hard as always for me, p14 with 1:33 i was expecting being in a better position. You guyz are fast!
Start of the race i take some positions, it was funny to drive with all the other porsche.

Some fights with the Aston and being lapped by the aliens were all the action that happened to me during this race.

Thanks to everyone who poarticipated in this great season, I really had a great time with those GT4
So next Porsche Cup Car?

Wiped the complete game from my computer and reinstalled it from scratch, all issues solved! No connection issues and car starts as it should.
So I am more than ready for next season!

Many thanks to @Battenberg and @Ricardo Macieira for another great season, although I missed most of it.
I practised for 4 races but only raced one... missed 2 because of technical reasons, so should have done a clean install earlier... but because I was new to the game, I first questioned my ACC skills.
Well at least I learnt 2 new tracks ... never drove on Zandvoort and Kyalami before.

Next time I will do the full season for sure.
See you all next year.
