Not my PB mate :-) just the best lap that session. But if you can keep that up consistently...and you will, you will be up there with the Aliens in no time. lets put it this way, come the race I don't expect to see you behind me! But I to hope you'll be spending more time in the pits than me :-)

Yeah I must have ran 30 - 40 laps that session, the best streak I had with out crashing was 7 Although i know how the pits work now and that I get fined if I don't do the speed limit.

LOL yeah, there are all kinds of nasties, keep an eye on the flags ignore one and it's a drive through or a black flag and race over. You can set up a pit speed limit button just to be safe.

Also watch the icons in the top right:
two rectangular lights (might be red/yellow) = stop-and-go penalty. You must ensure stop-and-go is selected in your pit menu and stop in the red box in pit lane. 99% of the time it's your own pit box (so if you don't adjust the pit menu your car will be serviced and not serve the penalty). A very small number of tracks put the penalty red box at the front of all of the pit stalls.
two curved arrows = Drive through penalty. Just what it says but don't speed or you'll be doing it again.
blue with a stopwatch and something else - Pit crew is ready. It will automatically come up when the game thinks you need fuel. Monitor your own fuel because on some tracks it's incorrect. When that icon isn't present you need to manually call your pits or you'll have a random delay waiting for the pit crew to come out.
blue flag, white flag, chequered flag - these are obvious.

I love all that stuff, tire wear, fuel strategy, flags, drive through penalty...all adds to the immersion. And if you think these cars are tough just try iRacing.
Not sure what my longest streak is without loosing it with this mod... probably about the same. But I've not put much time into it yet, got to find more time from somewhere or pull back on some other commitments elsewhere.

I plan on running one of the prototypes. I havent decided which class, but probably LMP2. Got some practice in last night on the server, and you're likely to see me testing different cars in the coming weeks leading up to the event. Spa was a great track choice!

Hey Paradox
Welcome to the fun! Once you have your car choice sorted out, let me know in the Car Choice thread and I will get it updated.
Cheers!

Good to hear Tony, so it looks like we'll have a couple of LMP cars zipping around. 3 classes. Yes!! Just what I was hoping for.
Cheers!
