Boeren - yep good tyre info for people thanks. Why are you using Hard - Soft Assymetrical rear? Surely as most wear is on the right you should Soft-Hard

The issue I have with not reducing the laps to 15 is: Will it ruin peoples race and make them whine like a dog who lost his tail? When they run out of fuel because they don't understand how to manage it ??  (I don't know for sure how effective fuel saving methods in race will be in this game) We have a broad spread of people here and my main aim is to provide a fun race.

16 laps would be my choice - just over the edge of normal consumption probably just needing a little conservation. But everyone running out just before the finish line will make for a tide of angry protest even if I would find it funny personally (maybe not if I was in the lead tho ) 

I will go run some more tests......

[Napalm Nick]

OK so going normal I get 1.36L/lap
Fuel saving by shifting up between 15-16k brings fuel/lap down to just 1.16L/Lap at the expense of laptime of course

further saving can be made by 'lift and coast' expense of laptime of course

all round fuel saving can be made by raising drivetrain/gear ratios to keep revs down expense of laptime of course

Interesting 15 or 16 laps boys?

[Blackheart]

I would say 15, because with the "windbreak" fuel consumption get up 

[Napalm Nick]

Slipstream - interesting point.

You could use that to be pulled along at half throttle though to save fuel too hehe

I tried a lot of configuration to save some fuel and the way of saving up is to lower(to go down) the times of 2 or 3 seconds to tours even more and feel(smell) changing my stopwatches the economy is of 0.05L / lap+-

If we fall in a tour the consumption increases of 0.07L / lap - and with the full tank of gas the motorcycle consumes the more and the more the reservoir empties and less it consumes.

We can save tires more easily than gas consumption.

15 lapses is very good decision because many pilots are not going to finish the race and after this championship we could make a long-distance race with for purpose make a long distance that to make of stopwatches.

let's go racing and not save such a nonsense as gasoline.
round go much gasoline will bear on and off.

[Vini]

16 laps would be fine IMO

[Napalm Nick]

Thanks Yan you have done some good work.

I think for the sake of simplicity we will go 15 laps this time (and no more nonsense lol). Endurance races still to come anyway.

Race changed to 15 laps

[Vini]

alright, even better

[Boerenlater]

I'm upgrading to windows 10 and I hope everything will still work for tonights race.
