Ok.. I was bored last nightcoffeeand did some long endurance races. Set up a race against the computer with a full lobby set on pro. Do we all know that you can only have the following laps for a race…..10lap – 25lap – 50lap or 75lap. Managed to get 17laps out of the Porsche around road Atlanta before needing a pit stop people were pitting from lap 13 to lap 17. Its a pity we couldn’t have a 30 lap race because I think that would really mix things up a bit with needing a second pit stop or not on some of the longer tracks, however think the format should be 1x 10 lap sprint race followed by 1 x 25 lap endurance. The nutter in me wants to do a 50 lap race but think that will be too long. Race time was approx 30mins but road Atlanta is a reasonable quick lap time. Think we should have ‘dry run’ for the endurance race and see what happens before we go for real. biggrin

Agree with all that 100% thumbup

I think that is where we went a bit wrong with the GTi championship, we should really have done a few dry runs and saved a couple of weeks finding out the didn't go up hills!

I'm up for a dry run just about anytime as I'm only at clients all this week. biggrin

Was a good laugh messing around with you guys in the GT's around Laguna.
Especially so as I won! wink

I'll keep an eye on this thread, as I quite like the idea of an endurance race.

Yeah just a bit.
I had the most appalling start as well! biglaugh
Although it's fair to say I didn't keep out of trouble for the later races!
