Spun fugged up the floor. Nice trips upside down Monaco.

>wake up
>toyota 6 is derp
Damnit.

>You now remember the Nissan Deltasad.


youtube.com/watch?v=jDLm-4D5UlE

>Toyota wants to win with Jap drivers
>inb4 Jap drivers fuck it up
>fw

>yfw kaz bins it

no i don't need these feels

Toyota #6 will finish 2nd trust me

>yfw nakajima choked.
ready the seppuku watch

>been up for 24 hours now

Who else?

holy shit she is bad at the bad
>hitting the inside walls of corners because going too slow and turning too much
this makes me mad

SHUT THE FUCK. EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE.
TOTSUGEKI IS ON COURSE TO VICTORY. WE CAN DO THIS.

me..with the help of a ton of sugar and Red Bull

>mfw somebody found out they are exactly the same

fin pls

does this mean the #5 will crash?

Are they actually driving with that view or is it spectator mode?
see also twitch /audiusaofficial

awake already from your 12 hours of rest from eating five cows and six sheep?

...

18 hours here

...

>Are they actually driving with that view or is it spectator mode?
she is driving like that.

...

almost there. not doing too bad

Been up for 29 hours now.
So caffeinated I can't even pour my coffee

youtu.be/R_lmacEmy78

Someone tell her that she will do much better if switch to hood camera

Seems like theyre driving like that since the game is not in spectator mode.
It seems like they just invited random streamers to race, because pretty much all of them seem like total shitters

stop

Is Ben Bowlby the Peter Molyneux of motorsports?

patrick dempsy is regretting sitting this one out

cockpit cam or nothing senpai

You French or just IP address French? If you are a real one whats it like living there btw?

3:51.582 new lap record in GTE Pro for Ford #66

Nah, Don Panoz is

Thanks

tokkan

when will ferrari field the la ferrari and porsche the 918?

I said perform good, not look like professional autist

>driving line
>still crashing

fugg at least when GT6 was alive, we could fill multiple 2 class race lobbies with no traction control and ABS and still manage to drive clean

>tfw now the gt6 lobbies are just impromptu drag races, SSX top speed and shitter 1 lap sprints

I dunno if this is a joke, but I had like 3 hours of sleep because I couldn't see shit.

Stupid sexy Dome.

#31 back out again, 98 out with broken gearbox (I think, was reported to be stuck in sixth gear)

not even about appearances i dont understand how people drive without cockpit view. cant feel the car rotating from 3 feet behind

Correct, shouldn't more of those vettes be kill?

The sad thing is, she is the average forza online racer...
The online is fucked beyond repair in that game.

i swear eurosport if i have to see this hairdresser commercial once more i am going to go crazy

The feels are mandatory for a proper Le Mans race.

only the 64 retired

I just noticed this gap
muh dig

...

It hurts
He is not a capable driver

French, and not far from le mans.
Living here is fine, as long as you stay the fuck away from Paris and the south east.
Don't get into politics/polemics/whatever, learn to not give a fuck, and you will be fine.
Life can be pretty expensive, especially in major cities.
I'm back from a year in Bulgaria, and on my way to NZ btw, being French makes travel a lot easier.

Never move to the US lego maker.

Theres still alive online racing in Forza 6 where good racing is still possible.
They recently had a leauge for GT cars that had full damage on slightly longer races that would take about 20 minutes each.
good times

Agreed, but hood camera gives you slightly better view without those problems

Feel? Just look at where the car is pointing. The rear camera is objectively the best point of view because you can see the entirety of your car and its relative position to everything. More information eliminates a lot of the doubts and unknowns present in hood/bumper/cockpit views.

No, the 57 had some offs but is still running

DELETE THIS!!!!!!!!

What are Giancarlo's chances of killing the Ferd?

>Plus on top of that the cars are homologated for several years at a time with only moderate changes allowed between.
>In terms of bodywork there is currently only three approved bodywork packages in DP and one of them is a minor variation of another. When said bodywork was introduced it all had to meet the same drag and downforce figures and the existence of a factory body kit means you can't run that manufacturer's engine without it.
Technological development isn't the point. The point is any manufacturer can walk up and hand IMSA a sack of money to get their styling cues and badges on a DP. It doesn't matter if the bodywork has the same drag and downforce figures. I wasn't trying to argue that DP is somehow superior or interesting in any way. With DP you could at least have some manner of manufacturer representation, which IMSA needs to survive in the North American market. The current spec of P2 would have helped take that a step further, given its more open chassis and engines rules. The 2017 spec P2s, however, are nothing like that and totally incompatible with manufacturer presence, which is the only point I was trying to make.

But good job reading "P2" and nothing else and then getting mad at nothing, like you do in every single motor/sp/ort thread.

>The test day is mandatory you paint eater.
Only if you have a rookie driver or a driver who hasn't run Le Mans in a number of years

Well, i slept through the last 5 hours, but i read the threads so i know what happened.

Which stream should i watch for the last 2 hours?

The m3u8, the ustream or another one that´s working better?

how can toyota be this good?

or is it that porsche and audi sucked this year?

In Forza you are forced to use 3rd person view in online races, since everyone is always trying to ram off people instead of clean races, and the extra vision can help you dodge those fuckers.

Fisichella in the Ferrari closing the gap to Ferd

Toyota is using their engine for 2017

iRacing or nothing. Forza 6 MP is absolute trash. If you are in front you can be sure the guy behind is going to use you as a brake.

youu.mooo.com/wl/wat-live.html

the p1 should be heavily modified versions of the road cars

Audi
>r8

Porsche
>911 or 918

Toyota
>prius or rcf

Guys, was there a year up to date when Audi didn't finish on podioum?

>g-drive p2 not allowing to be lapped by alpine p1
kek

sry m8 im tarded, i need the interior view

hood is an ok substitute as is gt roof view
>tfw local multiplayer only has exterior and bumper cams

you wot m8
not touching online now

that was GT1.

It's harder to perceive the direction when camera is rotating around the car, like in Forza. That's why in Gran Turismo and many other sims rear camera is fixed.
It's easier to perceive drift angle though.

m3u8 strim, use a 10000ms buffer for minimal lag

is your chat not working?

>not far from le mans
Mad Jelly

>Paris and the south east
I get PAris but why the SE?

>I'm back from a year in Bulgaria, and on my way to NZ btw
What was Bulgaria like? Also why NZ?

Sorry for being nosey, just a poor burger who can't afford to travel.

forza 6 is simply survive first major crash and cruise to top 3 victory easily

>VAG shareholder

It is working fine, blame ustream for beibng shit

m3u8 is best for me

They talked about it on RLM. 1998 I think but haven't fact checked.

It's a GT championship, not a supercar championship

Not bad for a 2.4L V6 turbo engine. But if they're already using the 2017 engine and Porsche is still keeping up with them, I can't wait to see the bloodbath next year when Toyota gets absolutely BTFO'd by Audi and Porsche.

Do you think Dr. Wolfgang will commit saurkraut after this race?

>tfw people crashing BEFORE the first corner
i honestly dont get how people are this bad

>LMP1 Prius

South East is highly populated as well

yep. 1998
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1998_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans#Official_results

and wasnt it amazing?

Thanks!

Is it 50fps by any chance? i´m seriously considering using an eurosport acestream for 50fps even though i will get ads all the time

There was clean racing lobbies (on shuffle mode) in GT5, racing was wonderful. Good days.
Does anyone plays with swinging external

>prototypes should be GT cars
