GT3 Fixed at Daytona - iRacing Acura NSX GT3

[@Mumwaldee]

I really hope iracing fixes the start system soon...

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

For sure. Thankfully it’s easily protestable.

[@TravisRhoads]

I might be in the minority...but I am ready for something other than Daytona! The start system really needs work, those guys that hold back and then blast past right at the green more often than not crash into folks, I know I have been taking out many times by one of them.

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Absolutely! Daytona’s great, but it’s really annoying when everything is at the same track all the time.

I’ll be missing out on the 24 as I’m in the process of moving

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Don’t you love it when life gets in the way? Good luck with the move!

[@vincentvoort7494]

I didn't do the Roar, I did the 6hr race at Daytona in the Porsche GTP with a teammate and won! The 24hrs I'll do in the Corvette GT3, but that proves to be a challenge still. No idea if we stream it. That red Porsche at the start deserves a report!

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Congrats! I’m definitely going to try to run the 24H next year. This year I’m hoping to do a few more special events, but we’ll see haha

[@vincentvoort7494]

@BobGiaquintoRacing not sure if you like it, but Watkins Glen is quite a nice event and easily done with 2 people

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

@ that was one of the ones on my list haha

[@Mumwaldee]

How do you like the Acura? Apparently it's made out of cardboard

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Aside from the wet cardboard rear end, I’m a fan. Feels about the same as any other mid engined car.

Page 23 of the Sporting Code. 6.8.2.9. Drivers are not allowed to approach the start/finish line as a race transitions from pacing, for example under yellow flag or at the start of a race, to speeds that are well beyond the pacing speed or speed of the leaders in an attempt to time the green flag to unfairly overtake other cars. An example of this would be to come up behind and catch a pack of cars pacing at 80 mph under yellow flag conditions at a speed of 150 mph in the vicinity of the start/finish line just as the race goes to green flag, and passing those cars. Just in case anyone was wondering. Definitely against sporting code. iRacing really should just stop it from being possible and issue penalties automatically for being out of place or for speeding pre-green flag.

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

Yeah definitely a BS move. I’ve had successful protests against this kind of thing before.

[@plutop]

these acuras are so fragile, i had minor contact to the rear in IMSA earlier today, and got 7 mins required as well

[@BobGiaquintoRacing]

I feel like that shouldn’t be the case. I had such a light tap for me and it destroyed me haha
