Global GT Challenge Proxy - Official Results

I'm just watching a few of the races... I'm going to have to watch through because Sam D Corvette lost a lap as the car crossed the line a fraction of a second after a track call. 
That extra lap makes a big difference to his score, should be 37.47 laps just ahead of Bangers BMW Z4.

2:37:25 into the video

I'll check the rest...

I'll check the xls file when I get home as every single lap is recorded and missed laps will be easy to spot I e. anything over 10 seconds.

Only that one missed lap, 13.11 seconds, heat 36.

   

So here's the corrected Pro cars results:

Car Inspections
I had a look through the cars after Round 7, these issues were noted.
Oxo Cube / Sauber Merc - rear wing had become detached again. This time it is to be left out next round.
RoadRunners / Toyota GT-ONE - Rear wing has become detached again. This time it is to be left out next round.
Demon Tweeks / Lambo- lost rear grill fittings on the back. Not in box ?
Green Star / BMW LMP - wing mirror off. 
Bangers Racing / Audi R8 - wing mirror off.
Paint Horse one / Viper - wing mirrors off.

The wing mirrors will be retained along with the wings in the loose parts bag.

The wing on your Toyota GT-one was off when it arrived here, it stayed in it's allotted hole in the tray all the while your car was on track.

Andy's Lambo rear details were missing when I took it out for the car previews...

I had not noticed they were missing before, worth asking Andy if they were originally fitted perhaps ?

Kevan, thank you for the review…. To answer a few questions, yes there are 2.5mm float screws on the front of the Viper and standard size on the rear.  11 tooth BRM pinion was added as I added 7 grams of weight to the chassis.  The rear was lowered  1/2mm with shims while the front was lowered .25mm. The tires are 25 shore Revoslot versus 30 shore, It has been shocking as everything on the Viper just worked perfectly….The 333 was set up differently so I could learn what may work with these cars as I’m a huge fan of Revoslots and feel they can race with cars outside of the brand when set up properly. 
I’ve been experimenting with the brass screws also that are equipped on the Texas Viper. They are a Revo/BRM part that allows for body float and has marks for settings.  They are highly recommended.
