GT Sport Season 15 Division 2

I'm not feeling very confident heading into this round. I lack the accuracy required to stay off the walls and maintain a decent pace so it's going to be tough. The only plus side to this track is the tyre wear, which is quite low.

Hmmm, not a lot of discussion around here lately. Nobody wants to give away any information it seems.

Drive faster than everyone else

I wont be able to make it tonight, got family staying with us and I can't get on the rig tonight....Goodluck all

Can't make tonight. Good luck everyone.

@Hatfield i should be home by 8 tonight. Can I please race in div2 tonight if I can make it.
I only just learned track in TT, have not driven the car yet, have no idea about tyre wear or fuel. All I know is what Bang just taught me. I will lap by myself in D1, their too fast, I should slot in somewhere in D2 field for some ok racing hopefully, or come last.

I’m coming

So sorry GT , car in front braked early, before I even had my foot on brake, I had to bail out, so accelerated then braked and weaved, thought I had got through, piss poor driving on my behalf.
Ursine, bank transfer will be fine.
Thanks for the racing tonight everyone, i had a ball, sorry for being rusty, 1st race in months basically.
Hope I can make it onto the grid again soon.
Congrats to Ursine, GT, & Tubby.

First Div 2 win! Very happy with that. It was always going to be one of those races where strategy played a big part along with a bit of luck on what unfolded around you. I got a bit lucky at the start to lead the medium runners after @Apex_64 had thoroughly cleaned the rust out of his brakes (bad luck gt). It was then a matter of putting in consistent laps and managing the gap to @gtkingx behind. He was gaining through the middle, then maintained a 2 to 3 second gap for a while before pulling away again ever so slightly by the end once the tyres started to wear out.
Also well done to @groover33 for the cheeky FL! You know you lost more points from pitting than what you gained from the FL point right? Bragging rights I guess!

After qualifying well on RM, only just missing pole to Josh on RS I got off to a reasonable start outbraking him into turn 2 and had the inside line. Thinking this was my chance to take p1 and get a gap from Ursine, my race was going great ..... cue a flying Apex lol. Managed to get going again in 5th and then a clash with Johnnoclint through the tunnel put me into the wall and back to 7th. Not a great first lap!!!

After fighting my way back to 2nd I had 4 seconds to catch Ursine, managed to pull it back to 2.5s before the damage to my tyres from shenanigans during the first few laps started to bite and i knew there was no catching him from there. So i settled for 2nd and just had a leisurely drive home

Great drive @UrsineSaturn9 it would have been a really good battle between us if the 1st lap hadn't happened the way it did

Coming in hot!

The soft tyre should be mandated in the regular rounds so everybody pits once. It would reduce the spread of the field without compromising the strategic aspect in my opinion.

I wouldn't call last night disastrous because it wasn't, but this track should go in the bin. My expectations were very low after a poor showing in the qualifiers and I knew that I'd be at the back. But I wasn't going to pussy out; I wasted too much time practicing and I wanted to get some points on the board. Which I did and I wasn't last! I made up 2 places somehow despite my lack of pace. I never want to see this track again because it's pathetic. Interlagos however is not pathetic and should be a permanent fixture on the ROOZ schedule. It's way more fun and there's more room for actual racing, not slipstream battles.

Yeah you were catching me mate. Got me down to 3.5 seconds while I was conserving tyres. I managed to gap you by over 8 secs within the last 3 laps to make sure I kept 3rd place.
Well done to Saturn and king!!!! Way to fast for me!

Disagree here. The RM is mandated with no limits on sets, the RS is there as a limited option if you want to use it. I personally hadn't considered the no-stop as an option for the past round but managed to qualify 2nd on the RS, stretched them out to lap 12 and came home in 2nd place on the RMs. One stop worked for me. The winner in D3 won from 8th on the grid on a no-stop. I reckon had we top three not battled so much at the start the result may have been different.

You rolls the dice and takes your chances.
