Jeremy....Mr BARacer very well done!   Your car is a great car, feels very balanced and a confident drive.....expect more results that give you a pleasant surprise!  You finished in front of some very good cars.

The video link won't embed, a shame it's not on Youtube.

I embedded the race video at the end of my post above.

The race that will forever be known as "Trackmate-gate" © where the race software didn't accurately present on the screen what the cars did on the track. However, with the race being videoed, the organisers were able to validate the results with some manually counting of laps off the vhs tape.

So for me, a solid qualifying performance got me nowhere, whilst a solid race performance got me up to lower mid-table. 

OXO Cube had a welcome return of tyre traction between qualifying and the race and slotted in one place above me in the results.

All very interesting, and valuable data for future builds!

VHS tape! Come on nobody's used one of those this century 

For that reason all proxies should be on video as automated lap counting has no brain as we've seen in a couple of Graham's proxies in the last 12 months.

A bit of a 'flat' round for me. It's a technical tracks with plenty of changes of direction which exposed the handling weaknesses in my car. So I ended up back at the tale end of the pack roughly where I started in Round 1. OXO Cube held his own despite what appears to be degregating rear TS tyres. But to put it into perspective, the cars at the front are breaking track records at each round, so it's going to take a lot more time and effort to get up those rankings. But we threw the dice when we entered, and every result and driver comment provides a return on our investment which then needs to feed back into the next build.

Because there's no max width tyre rule you need 14mm wide NSR Supers or Ultras to be competitive.

---

RE: GT3 Proxy 2024 - BAracer - 20th-Feb-24

The leading cars do all have 13mm wide F1 rear hubs (although not all the cars with 13mm F1 rear hubs are at the front of the field).

Doesn't seem very GT3, but they are not breaking any rules for this series.
