I will definitely try to make this race.
But... 40 min race = approx 20 laps. At 5x fuel multiplier I'll need 52 gallons to go 10 laps (half race). Car only holds 30 gal. Do you intend for us to pit twice for fuel?

For some reason the car doesn't shift as fast on online as it does when I drive in single player. I didn't set anything in my JSON files, they should be default. The slow down-shifts are screwing me up. Can we speed that up a bit? Also need some rubber on track. I have a good Realroad file if it will help.

Rick the problem with the downshifts is that autoblip is not enabled .
I was going to do this one but it clashes with the England match , maybe next time

Hi Rick, these Tuesday night "fun" races are test races for the next endurance series due to start in the Autumn. We are using the test races to try out different cars and fuel/tyre multipliers so that in addition to just driving, you also have to make fuel tyre calculations mid race...just like real endurance racing.
In this instance you probably will be need to make two stops and also decide whether or not to change tyres.

Yup as Deecee pointed out we have disabled auto-lift and auto-blip on the server so everyone has to do "proper" gear changes. Also you should note that mechanical failures are also enabled so again like real endurance racing, you also need to look after the car.
