You won't regret it anymore when you'll be the GTU champion

Now Paul would need to move to GTU for the duel to continue :raclure:

I Have a feeling that Frank and Franck and Yannick and Thomas and everyone might not agree
with you there im just making up the numbers

I Would love to continue the fight with Paul but i have a feeling he will be very
reluctant to give up his beloved homeland Corvette

@gui: how reliable is the 911S engine and how good can it handle high RPM? Is there the same problem as with the RSR? i just don`t understand these engine files...

combien le KG ??

the difference between GTO's and GTU's are of app. 5-6 sec.

I made 1:58:7 with the corvette and 2:03:00 with the Capri

With the time you made with the Capri, you can make 1.53 with the Pantara.

Well it's hard to say.
If you open the engine file, which is the Porsche911lm_engine.ini, here are the most important lines :

RevLimitRange=(8400,252,3) which means the engine max rpm setting is 8400 + 252x3 = 9156rpm

LifetimeEngineRPM=(8160,84.8767691780865) which means that above 8160rpm, the engine's lifetime is being damaged each time you go 84,87.. rpm over it.

LifetimeAvg=64000 which is the engine lifetime in seconds
LifetimeVar=67200 which is a random factor of reliability. The engine lifetime can be between 64000 + 67200 and 64000 - 67200 seconds (yes that means your engine can be dead even before it has started, well done to the modders ). That factor changes each time you go on track.

So honnestly I can't tell you how reliable this engine is without doing a big amount of testing. It has an huge random factor. I think it can be dead after 2 laps or be completly unbreakable, but it can also be normal when the random factor is not too big, but its random, you never know ...

It is not the case with the 911RSR engine. About the RSR, I was looking at the wrong file, Tiago was right, the engine is being damaged when you go above 7500rpm. Compared to the others cars of the GTO class, the RSR's engine lifetime is much smaller, I dont understand why did they set it like this ... But its random factor is very small.
Like I said before, lots of drivers blew their engine last year in 2 hours races, but those who took it easy managed to see the chequered flag.

I really don't believe the corvette is 5 sec. slower than the pantera

@gui: thank you for these explanations! perfect as always! i have to test the 911 S on wednesday. after that, i may be change to GTU. but this high random factor is horrible. you`ll never know. the modder of the Historic GT must have been a ferrari addict

Bienvenue en GTU Carl !
C’est sur que la place est recherchée !
Et que ça va bagarrer. :raclure:



Yannick

Heu Guillaume, j'ai édité plus haut pour la voiture en GTU. Comme le directeur sportif m'a dit que je n'étais pas capable de conduire une Porsche RSR en GTO, j'ai pris la Porsche 42 en GTU, un peu lente la bête mais enfin, avec le vent dans le dos parfois ça peut le faire.

J'avais bien installé le skin-pack mais toutes les skins ne se sont pas installées... je vais encore devoir faire appel à vos aides je crois bien...

Je comprend pas comment il peut te manquer des skins, soit tu les as tous, soit t'en as aucun si tu n'as pas installé le skinpack
Tu es sur que tu regardes au bon endroit pour les skins ? Pour les Capri par exemple, choisis la #52, et cliques sur l'onglet Skin ou Textures ou Peintures ou que sais je, ça dépend de la traduction. Et normalement tous les skins doivent apparaitre.

Et pourtant c'est bien ce qui s'est passé, en installant le skinpack, les voitures avec les dossiers "skin" ne s'étaient pas installés... j'avais un le dossier "Vehicule" qui provenait du skinpack, dans le dossier "Vehicule" de mon installation de rfactor... (je sais pas si vous suivez...? un vrai bordel ).

Enfin j'ai fait des traveaux manuels et tout est bon maintenant j'ai les voitures et les skins qui vont avec, ouf...

Si je comprends bien je garde ma Pantera pour le championnat, Gui

Ok Phil

Oui si tu veux garder ta Pantera, c'est bon

Hello,

as I can see those two categories are still somewhat unbalanced as for number of participants (20 to 12 aproximately).
So I'll take the weaker Porsche 911S - #35 please.

I hope few more guys will come to join us in probably close and breathtaking contests in GTU class...

Adam

Cool, another Porsche

and another one. will also move from the RSR to the Porsche 911 S #36 and strenghen the GTU Class

Thanks to all those who made the move from a category to another !

Yup, now the field looks very cool

18-14 nearly an even split ...

Why are you thinking of moving

All we need now is Ludo to predict who is going to win this one

Haha no I wouldn't exchange my lovely Capri even for a Pantera ! And I love Panteras !

I like to hear that Frank

Nice signature Carl. But I don't have much time since I'm overcrowed with work until...well..until July at best.

One thing for sure. I'm damned slow. I'm driving the RSR even slower than the GTU guys...something's wrong there. 2.05.1 is my bes and I really don't how improving it

Well educated guess in GTO it will be a fight between Corvette. I've seen no twisty tracks so the US power will prevailed so we'll perhaps see a revival of the CFC between Carlo and Guillaume with Vincent and Tiago as referees . And all who chooses the RSR have gone wrong as its modelisation in the game is hillarious (how could the most reliable car this era could be so fragile in the game...can someone tell me?). It's also underpowered for the fast tracks we wil race on. So that's definitively the very bad choice to do. The Corvette should be the ultimate weapon on such tracks, then the BMW then the Pantera.
For the GTU it probably be a duel between Joe Dalton and Frank. I don't really know the cars so I'm not establishing a hierachy there.

Ludo why dont you drop the RSR and get the 911S
come and join us in the GTU its nearly as quick as the RSR ....
Silly question but who is Joe Dalton

The RSR #9 is a personnal skin Carl. I've done it last year for the ECGT. Can't let it down anyway as it's my mascot

Joe Dalton is Franck Labedan

ma caisse est libre bon champ
