Final race, final lap…last turn

 

[SomnusMor]

Just wanted to hop on here and apologize to the grid. I don't know what was going on with my performance last night. I'd been running 2:08.5xx for almost all of my practice sessions throughout the month and couldn't best 2:09.1 in qual or race which was very frustrating and discouraging which festered in to the terrible performance. I apologize again to everyone on the grid.

Also confirming for the next race at Road Atlanta

No sweat. It happens to all of us.

Road Atlanta is gonna be hectic. That track is much more physical than St Croix. Should be fun.

 

[Worst_Driver]

Photos from last night. I grew to appreciate that variant of St-Croix...but that is the only one I like

@SomnusMor I ran high 2:09 to low 2:10 with some good laps in the high 2:08. No worries, its all about consistency. Last in the first race but in the reverse race I managed to finish 5th with a 494 HP tune.

First race

Reverse race

Pretty pleased how that shot came out. I changed some settings, panning mode 3 and boy it's a game changer.

I'm really looking forward to Road Atlanta, wonderful track for the series finale. Huber racing FTW

The first event at Daytona went pretty poorly for me, but Laguna was even worse. Race 2 I started in first, went off track on Lap 1, and finished 15th. My other 3 events have been pretty incredible. This series is on a whole other level when it comes to tight racing and competitiveness. Welcome to the series and good luck at Road Atlanta!

I was finally able to get some practice in at Road Atlanta last night….gonna need some serious practice for this one, but pretty happy with my first outing.
Was able to hit a 1:18.6 running with @Phlano099 and @Yugofan (Thanks for the practice guys). I’m not sure if that’s a decent time or not….whats everyone else seeing for lap times?

You will be fine, your pace is already good, my money is on you or Nova for this race.

Post Race Report and Scoring
Event #5 at Saint Croix B​

Not much from my point of view for this past event. Lack of preparation showed how far you can fall off the pace. Great job to those who put in the work.
I'm hoping that someone will take the Race broadcasts for this event to be available for viewing, but you can view the actual replays through the search tag: snailgt3cup. Feel free to elaborate on any battle/exchanges you may have shared in Event #5

Very minimal to non-existant lag/jittering was present across the field....great night for racing

Congratulations to @Phlano099 on the overall Win on the night. Well Done

Event 6 Race Details

Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta
Evening, SO7 Humid and Pleasant with a Few Clouds
24 laps/Race​

Below are the details for Event #6 at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta on Friday, May 10th, 2024.
Drivers are encouraged and reminded to confirm their attendance status as soon as possible to secure their spot on the grid for race night or Reserve Priority. Be reminded, this series runs on a "first to confirm" priority. First 16 drivers to confirm are guaranteed a grid spot. All additional drivers that confirm thereafter will be marked as Reserve drivers with priority based on order confirmed. Be sure to confirm your attendance as early as possible. We are currently sitting at 12 drivers confirmed for Event #6. All additional drivers to confirm outside the first 16 will be on Reserve status for this event.

I will be hosting practice sessions in the afternoons periodically over the next few weeks between 4pm-5pm est, and am sure there will be other rooms open during the evening prime-time. Get those laps in and be ready.

Date: May 10th, 2024 at 9pm est
Track: Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta
Conditions: Evening, SO7 Humid and Pleasant with a Few Clouds
Laps: 24
Target Lap Times: 1:18's
(See Section 1, Tab 1.3 for Lobby Settings)

Track Map and Boundaries
View attachment 1251701
Keep 2 wheels on or within the white line where curbing is not present, or on the curbs where they are present at all times, except where it is specifically noted otherwise. The white line and curbing is considered legal track surface. Failure to comply to track boundaries could result in penalties if infractions are witnessed and reported.

Road Atlanta Exceptions:
Turns 2 and 3 Chicane and Turns 10a and 10b:
Any solid painted curbing beyond the checkered curbing will be considered legal track surface. 2 wheels must remian in contact with the painted surface/curbing at all times.

Turn 5 (T5)
View attachment 1251702
For this corner, Turn 5 at the end of the S's the large checker curbing will be considered track surface...2 wheels must remain in contact at all times. In this instance, it is obvious that you would want to keep all tires on the curbing to avoid contact with the gravel.
Beyond the curbing, where the tarmac runoff is past the white line, will be considered legal track surface up to where the grass begins. 2 wheels must be on or inside the white line where the grass starts at the exit of the corner.

Wow, it looks like there’ll be some tight points battles throughout the field and Road Atlanta should not disappoint….there should be a lot of real close action and I can’t wait!
And Chris, this is a testament of all the hard work you put into this series, and all of the series’ you organize. It still amazes me how you keep the field so close on race nights, and in the points battles.
Thanks for giving us all the opportunity to enjoy the racing, the way it should be. Hats off to you Sir!
