Ford?
Available Saturday AM and PM.
I might not have time to make a setup myself.

 

[Laiders]

Would be keen to do this if anyone fancies it. Tried the Merc, Audi and Ford so far and weirdly find I’m quickest and most stable in the Ford, but only doing mid 28s...

 

[m4nu]

@1185323118 and @Laiders for the gaggle?

 

[1185323118]

One bad race one good race for Academy Yellow team this weekend.

We originally planned to do the Saturday PM race. I failed to notice that the endurance race start earlier than the sprint race in-game, the track temp was slightly higher, but enough to move braking point earlier than sprint races. I spun on both Q laps, started all the way back in 39th, worked up to 21st after 40 minutes, but I misjudged the trajectory of a spun car and was collected by it, one slight tap destroyed the front right suspension and we are out of the race before @Laiders can get in the car.

Then we decide to attempt the race again on Sunday. A lot of teams signed up for the Sunday race, it ended up having 3 splits of small grid sizes. We were in top split with a 3311 SoF and our average was 25th out of 35 teams in the session. I Qed the car at 17th, benefited from mistakes from others, also saving fuel when coming across cars that defend very hard. I saved enough fuel to go one more lap than others and was in 9th before pitting. Then I had to leave for another event so @Laiders took over the car, he was consistent and fuel was on schedule, but the leaders were too quick and lapped us 2 times, we didn't get the chance to use our fuel economy advantage against other teams, we finished 21st at the end and both of us gained iRating and Safety Rating. At a track that is relatively easy to get off track incident point and some teams served a drive through penalty, we only had 2×, the least in the entire race aside of a team who didn't start at all, I'll call that an achievement
