I sent in my car today and the training was going on yesterday. Will I still compete?
yes, it still on pre-season test and no deadline yet
Itās in Britain for a reason. 
It will be a nice mixture of weather conditions, but it wonāt rain in every single race (probably).
07CobaltGirl thanks for info! Btw nice fight on the track! 
haha yeah we traded places several times!
What a waste of pitstopā¦ luckyā¦
Iām actually surprised. My fastest lap in race was less than a second off my test laps. The last laps showed how much worth are good tactics iRaptor.
In a surprise turn of events. LHE, unable to fund the development of a scratch built race car for entry in the 1966 BRC, shared plans with Baltazar for a new chassis. Baltazar in turn was kind enough to supply LHE with a purpose built racing engine to replace the their ābuilt for streetā X8M 90-degree OHV Vee-Eight used in production cars.
The new design has been tested fitted to the '66 Orbital race car with shocking results, mated to a 5-speed transmission the Baltazar engine and transmission combo is less expensive then the timely process of modifying the production variant used from the assembly line.
(this is allowed, right?)
[size=200]Itās story time, time for story[/size]
I spent almast full freakinā day trying to improve my timeā¦and I failedā¦I was frustrated so hard that I deleted all my files for my previous carā¦
I give up, Iām going to keep this rolling piece of metal that I sent so Iām making a revervation for the last place in every race.
If you notice, his car on inters was three to four seconds faster while the rain was easing up down to only 41% but the moment it picked up again to 50%+ the wets were competitive once more.
Also I totally missed my second regular stop the first time watching the video. If I had known I probably would have skipped it to see the performance degrade by running the same set to the end.
I donāt think trying to out last people on tires and fuel is going to work out for me. Iām just too slow to make up the time in the pits, which is really short overall. The pit stops are faster than a Modern NASCAR stop. I wish I had gone for the 0 stop strategy to see what would have happened.
Can I also ask for a refresher on what the numbers in the tire wear indicators mean? A link to the appropriate little dev update will be sufficient.
By the way, the new BRC tool (you should add a version number) still picks the wrong car model if I donāt empty out my folders. Trim and engines are correct but the model is completely wrong.
I have 25 car models in my folder (so 27 total with old/thumbs) and it picked the last one alphabetically in the list.
thx for the screenshots 07cobaltman 
anyhow. whoās skipping inters altogether? and how did you do?
@koolkei: Ask me after the next pre-season test.
Quick question to Der Bayer: if you take a pit stop for rain tyres, does that count as an emergency pit stop for scheduled pit stop purposes? I want to make sure Iām minimizing pit stops as effectively as possible.

Well it took me a while to realise I was on inters. I thought I was on semi-slicks during that 40% rain period 
I have yet to finalise my strategy. Iām eager for the extra training session. If any of you played racing-related strategy games on the web that is complicated enough with the strategies, then I can assure you will have an advantage against those who never did.
Hope the last deadline wonāt be too soon. Iāll take my Friday night looking at the wear and such.
But Iām quite surprised that people were a whole lot slower than what they were used to.
Time to invest that extra 1K now. 
Sorry, another question, too: if you pit in because you ran out of fuel, does that count as an emergency pit stop for replacing scheduled pit stop purposes?
i want to confirm something, how āreplace regular stop within % race timeā work? say if im already do irregular stop before 40% arce then it will replace the next pit stop for certain amount?

- make a copy of your automation folder and put it in a safe place
- delete all of the models, trims, familyās and variants that aināt used by the car you want to use in the competition (remeber that you have made a copy of your whole automation folder)
- brc tool
4.? - PROFIT!
Alternatively:
[ol]]Copy your Cars and Trims folders into a new folder./:m]
]Delete all the extra models &c. just like UMGaming said./:m]
]Unzip the BRC tool into its own folder in your new folder./:m]
]Run in the new folder./:m][/ol]
