AC 60's LMP @ Le Mans - Weds 9th December 2020

[Kek700]

Been testing gearing at Le Mans, best I can achieve in the Ferrari is 184mph,
( 296kph ), The best in a GT40 is 200mph ( 322kph )
Anyone achieved better that that.

Best I can get for the Ford is 318kph Ernie, Ferrari same as you, and the Porsche @ 306kph.

Despite the huge diff in top speed I'm much quicker in the Ferrari than the others, though if I can get rid of the 'snap oversteer' in the Porsche I'll give it a whirl.

The GT40... plenty of people are super-quick with it, but just don't get it at all, I must be doing something really wrong

Welcome Thomas, a Ferrari it is 'fer ya

Totally agree about the GT40 - for a Kunos car it should be so much closer to the other two in many ways

The AI is fastest with the GT40, about 2 to 3 sec per lap compared to the Ferrari. Are they cheating?

@Medilloni
I am, as you John, quicker in the Ferrari, Gt40 quicker on one lap but not
with a number of laps, and getting that one quick lap with the GT40 is very hit and miss, normally miss.
It is all going to come down to the long straight, that GT40 is going to eat the Ferrari. And were the Ferrari is quicker, overtaking is going to be very difficult.
I will give the Porsche a go tonight and see how I get on.?

PS number 1, the race-night is going to be very interesting.

PS number 2, would it be a good idea to remove the Ferrari BOP?

I slightly scratch 318 kph. Wonder how you achieved the other 4 kph. Zero toe front and rear? Higher tyre pressures? Less wing?

How do you test Han? Are you practicing with the AI or do you just let it run? I tried a couple of laps with the AI and they are bouncing around off bumps down the mulsanne for me. Sometimes sideswiping each other off the track! I think I'd be better switching damage off as there seems to be a lot of retirements.

Noooooooooooooooooo

I did a complete race simulation of 7 laps (appr. 25 min) with qualifying with 18 AI cars, 6 of each type. After the race I analysed the lap times of all 18 cars. AI skill at 97%.

Try lowering the aggressive percentage of the AI. I have it at 1%.

Are you sure you weren't on an open sever by mistake Scott?

I noticed the AI on my system was very generous (favourable) with the Ford's stopping distance, relative to the other two cars.

Yes, you are right, but with the GT40 the AI also lifts in the small bend in the last part of the straight. It is not necessary so with the Porsche and the Ferrari you can regain a lot of time there on the Ford. A human GT40 driver will not lift and will have the total advantage of top straight speed.

Is R1 a night race ? so I need to map light Button

 

[Stig Bidstrup]

Okay I read the post one more time--think I got it now

 

[adie_the_badie]

I'm in for this one @Medilloni !

TBC on the car...leaning towards the Ford but I have a soft spot for Porsches...decisions, decisions.

Oh, thank you very much mate! Hope to get a hand on it before the race. I'm very short on time...

Btw, I'm watching your progress in speed with worries since a while. You seem to be faster than me on some occasions. I hope we'll have some good fights before you disappear in front.
