Had great fun in the HPD last night, feels great around Le Man. Think I'm going to run it next season.

I've had similar thoughts, but they are 75 minute races with a pitstop. So s bit of a slog on a warm evening.

They are 60 minutes now by the look of it unless your counting quali as well? Doing the BES I've got used to doing long runs now, even did a 3 hour race on my own lol.

At the start of the last season, somebody linked to a season overview pdf that condensed the schedule into a handy 6-page document. Has anyone got a link to whatever iRacing forum thread I need to find similar for the upcoming season?

Many thanks.

Really enjoyed the HPD the other night, although I've a long way to go to be fast.

The track list for ProtoGT this coming season 4 looks interesting. I wonder what the participation is like for both weekdays and weekends, and what timezones prove most popular?

Thanks for that, but not what I meant.

I found the link to what I was referring to - https://www.reddit.com/r/iRacing/comments/4mc7de/iracing_season_3_light_and_easy_schedule_road_for/

I'll see if I can find one for this season.

After a bit of a break I'm back for the new season.

Any recommendations on what series to drive?

What do you have and what have you done before? A few of us on here are going to give the HPD a go this season but it's 60 minute races. I'd recommend the skippy, great fun to drive and usually decent racing.

barmyllama · 13 Sep 2016 at 14:25

Quite a few of us bought the HPD to coincide with the Le Mans track. It's actually a fun car to drive so I'm certainly considering the prototype series and I think a few others might as well.
