In the 24hour game (Maybe here), I used the FCRX7 for many races. |
So I decided to enter the race-modified version in the Grand Valley 300. |
Game: 24hour Day: 114 Date: Dec 29, 2002 Race: Grand Valley 300KM Endurance Race Car: red/gray Mazda [R]FC RX-7 GT-X Qualified: 4th 1:45.364new (+0.873) Cr0 Result: 1st Money: Cr300,000 Prize-Car: black/blue Castrol Supra GT Results: 1st: *[R]FCRX7 GT-X 1-40:27.8 2nd: [R]NSX-R LM GT2 +103.178 (1-42:11.0) 1 lap 3rd: [R]R32GT-R'91 +107.646 (1-42:15.4) 1 lap 4th: [R]IMPREZA RLY Ed +184.657 (1-43:32.5) 1 lap 5th: [R]EXIV 200GT +317.839 (1-45:45.6) 2 or 3 laps 6th: [R]Lancer EvoIV GSR +350.864 (1-46:18.7) 3 laps Pits: 15,30,45 fl(48): 1:37.370 lap 1 1:46.995 slowest non-pit (8) 1:44.607 next (57) 1:43.096 fastest pit laps (30in) 1:56.649 (16out) 1:45.966 slowest pit laps (45in) 1:57.186 (31out) 1:46.307 |
Starting from fourth place, I moved relatively quickly into second place during the first lap (the NSX had its characteristic wipe-out on the run to the second hairpin, and I managed to avoid a collision with it). |
I slowly gained on the leading Skyline, and took the lead, but then had a mishap on lap 8 at the first hairpin which dropped me back once again. But I did actually manage to gain the lead on the road by my first pit stop. |
My first pit stop dropped me to second place, but I gained the lead when the first-place car (probably the NSX?) pitted. |
On my other two stop, I kept the lead. |
Towards the end of the race I diced with the second and third place car as I came up to lap them. I eventually managed to keep both of them lapped at the finish. |
This result was slightly slower (17 seconds) than a previous time I ran this race with this car. Considering that was over three years ago, that is mildly perplexing! I was possibly tired because this was the culmination of a long day of racing. Perhaps also significant was the fact that last time I took four pit stops instead of three. |
Once again, for your analytical enjoyment, I here present all 60 lap times... |
1 1:46.995 1:46.995 2 1:38.525 3:25.520 3 1:38.262 5:03.782 4 1:38.638 6:42.420 5 1:38.405 8:20.825 6 1:37.819 9:58.644 7 1:38.146 11:36.790 8 1:44.607 13:21.397 9 1:39.575 15:00.972 10 1:39.654 16:40.626 11 1:39.844 18:20.470 12 1:39.860 20:00.330 13 1:42.108 21:42.438 14 1:40.108 23:22.546 15 1:57.158 25:19.704 16 1:45.966 27:05.670 17 1:37.472 28:43.142 18 1:39.177 30:22.319 19 1:38.801 32:01.120 20 1:38.835 33:39.955 21 1:39.254 35:19.209 22 1:37.764 36:56.973 23 1:38.752 38:35.725 24 1:38.197 40:13.922 25 1:39.280 41:53.202 26 1:37.986 43:31.188 27 1:38.220 45:09.408 28 1:42.990 46:52.398 29 1:39.656 48:32.054 30 1:56.649 50:28.703 31 1:46.307 52:15.010 32 1:37.508 53:52.518 33 1:38.114 55:30.632 34 1:37.375 57:08.007 35 1:37.814 58:45.821 36 1:37.804 1-00:23.625 37 1:37.512 1-02:01.137 38 1:37.914 1-03:39.051 39 1:39.337 1-05:18.388 40 1:40.480 1-06:58.868 41 1:38.177 1-08:37.045 42 1:38.986 1-10:16.031 43 1:39.901 1-11:55.932 44 1:41.718 1-13:37.650 45 1:57.186 1-15:34.836 46 1:46.244 1-17:21.080 47 1:37.880 1-18:58.960 48 1:37.370 1-20:36.330 49 1:37.430 1-22:13.760 50 1:37.951 1-23:51.711 51 1:38.723 1-25:30.434 52 1:38.047 1-27:08.481 53 1:39.046 1-28:47.527 54 1:40.402 1-30:27.929 55 1:39.597 1-32:07.526 56 1:38.368 1-33:45.894 57 1:43.096 1-35:28.990 58 1:38.916 1-37:07.906 59 1:40.018 1-38:47.924 60 1:39.913 1-40:27.837 |
Actual total count, at 800BDB74, was 005BFA5B, or 6027837 thousandths of seconds. So the above is exactly right. |
Here are the settings. |
My Settings Tires S S max parts (TS3) Spring Rate 3.6 3.4 (max, max) Ride Height 105 105 (min, min) Dampers 4 4 Camber 2.0 1.0 Stabilizers 3 3 Brake Balance 14 12 1st 4.400 2nd 2.282 3rd 1.452 4th 1.035 5th 0.800 ----- FD 3.650 Aero 0.70 0.96 (max,max) |
Basically, most settings are maximized or minimized as appropriate. |
