Ready for 24hours of Masters of Endurance
My3id Gaming will be represented in both classes. We are racing FZR in GT1 and XRR in GT2.
As you know I'll be racing in GT1 alongside Tomek, Joni and Jarno and this is going to be my first MoE GT1 race in a very long time after our runner-up season back in 09/10 with GT2 squad when we managed to take victory at one race. This race is a special treat for us, because none of us in GT1 squad managed to win a MoE GT1 race yet, let alone 24 hours!
The GT2 squad is consisted of our iRacaing guys mostly, Hugo, Jack, Jesse, Dave and Joe from LFS. Of course all of them go way back with MoE, but GT2 class is a new challenge for them as they did their runner up season back in 09/10 in GT1 car, when Jesse used to race with f1rst in their title winning season. Of course Joe was still in diapers at that time, haha, but nevertheless he's proven his qualities thru IGTC.
Today we've had a 60 minute qualifying session and Tomek drove it for us since he is currently holding world record on the given combo. He was leading all the way until last 5 minutes when Reno from spdoRacing, who used to be with My3id couple of years ago before we split parts, pulled a stunning lap in XRR to take pole position with margin of only a 0.05sec. He managed this with help of a more aggressive strategy in qualifying, which consists of heating tires massively and letting them cool down to a more perfect temperature after which you have only couple of laps to post your best time. However we are still looking strong from 2nd on the grid with two huge straights after the start. Speaking of our old teammates, next to Reno is Rik, who recently split parts with My3id, to finish their line-up, there are Mihu and Egon making a strong effort for victory for sure. Behind us on the grid are Sonicrealms in XRR, who I believe just had a lucky lap in quali and will be looking to stay on the podium.. Then we have LowLandLions, which will be starting exactly behind us and with Matti, Simon, Robendo and Alen in FZR, they are looking very strong candidate for victory next to us and spdo. Further down the grid, we have Polish team Conquest making a strong candidature for podium with our ex teammate Piotr and nFinity with legendry bawbag and Denis Lind, also our ex-teammate.
Hugo took a clear pole by a 0.15 in GT2 class from Marius who is racing with Rapotor gaming for this event. Also worth mention is Genuine racing, but I think our GT2 car is a clear favorite here if bad luck doesn't strike them.
All I can tell you about strategy is that I'll be racing over 6 hours. To find out more you'll have to wait until the race which starts at at 16:00UTC and you can follow it live over stream.
Big thanks to Bose for renders.
