4/9/2024 0 Comments Imola track rfactor 2![]() ![]() If you have Imola 1963 in your collection, you will not have to delete it as Imola 1960s takes its own directory in your Locations folder. Look out for this if Imola 1960s goes well! Currently I am playing around with google maps to see just where I want the circuit to run and for how long. If I get strong ratings then I will have enough motivation to make my second Manhattan circuit, which I am currently dubbing "Midtown Manhattan GP". Hopefully the sim racing community will like this one. Not to mention the poor ratings and screenshots at rfactorcentral of my old circuit (1963). It is based on my original track Imola 1963, but since I deleted everything (including height-maps) I consider this an entirely new track. I have been working on Imola 1960s on and off for 2 months. Imola 1960s 1.0 should be arriving at Nogripracing and Rfactorcentral very soon (hopefully as soon as the 15th of December) for all of you to play. Upfront, it would be yet another win for Kurt Polter who takes the early points championship lead in the GT3 class.After much deliberation, I decided that this was unique enough to class it as a totally new track for rfactor. Tyler Campbell would continue to climb back up the order along with Paul Hamilton and Douglas Ritter, but the gap from those three up to the front four was more than they could overcome in the time remaining on the clock, and at the end, Marc Johnson would finish in third place in class, with C Michael Parker in second place after starting fifth. Behind them, Marc Johnson would recover from early trouble and move into third in class, with Nick McLaughlin not far behind. The battle behind was intense with Tyler Campbell and C Michael Parker in second and third places respectively until Lap 15 when Campbell would drop out of the top 3, and move Parker into second. The GT3 class would see quite the battle for the lead early, with third place started Polter move up to the class lead by the end of Lap 2. Out of the 20 GTE class cars that took the green, 17 were still on track at the end. When the checkers fell on Justin Hess, he would not only take the win and the season points lead but also make a statement with his nearly 47-second gap back to second place! With Stephens’s misfortune, and being close enough to take advantage of it, Kris Hudson would go from a fourth-place start to finish in second. ![]() Late in the race while running in second place, Brett Stephens would get caught up in an accident out of the hairpin, but he would continue till the finish taking third place with a very ill-handling car. The battle for 5th place between Larry Ford and Steve Boyer eventually gave way to a charging Jason Lundy who would work his way from the back, winning the hard charger award for the night. There were a few first-lap incidents relegating many to the rear of the field and working hard to recover ground, all the while the front four would hold their positions for most of the race. StartĪs the field of 31 cars crossed the line taking the green, Hess would begin to slowly march away as Stephens worked on holding second place. With 20 cars taking the grid, a great qualifying lap would prove to be very important. ![]() The GTE class pole was easily won by Justin Hess, last season’s GTE class champion, with a lap of 1:38.173 which was nearly 0.8 seconds faster than second-place qualifier Brett Stephens. This class would be competitive, and it was apparent with the top 5 qualifiers within a quarter of a second of each other! In the 2 lap solo qualifying session, Tyler Campbell would take the pole position in the GT3 class over second-place Marc Johnson, with last year’s GT4 champion Kurt Polter close behind. Janu– With two months off between seasons, the atmosphere was electric as the new season of sportscar racing took the green flag, kicking off a six-race season of multi-class racing! In what has been a staple at Champion Motorsports with their Wednesday night iRacing series, this season saw a change with the GTE class cars on track with GT3 class cars, where patience and cooperation were key to a good night of racing for all.
