IN Mick Osborne / micko39 / Honda #18 I am happy to give up my place if you have a full grid. Thought you didn't plan to run the ovals, Mick? Not complaining though, you had a ton of speed in the test. It'd be awesome to get that run we had to the front going again, minus the accident this time though! Lol

Due to a visit from relatives on Saturday, I don't know if I'll make it on time. If I do, great, if I don't, we'll have a good race. I'm still practicing anyways

I wanted to post this question in the general chat post but it seems to be locked for the moment being so I'll stick it here;
Pit strategy-
I want to have a strat setup to take right sides and fuel only but for whatever reason even when I set the strategy to do so the crew swaps out all 4 regardless. I have set the change tires option to all but put none in for the compound choice on the left sides. Does anyone know if the game allows just changing tires on one side? I know you can do just fronts or rears if you choose but I would really like to be able to do a rights-only stop. I might try setting it to recommended and see if i can get them to do just rights, but knowing this game's track record of botched stops because of that option being selected I'm not sure I want to risk it. When I pit in after a full run I've got at the minimum 2/3rds life left in those left sides so I see no point in changing them if I don't have to.

You should be able to do this Ian but the pit strategies do seem to have a mind of their own and it's always a bit of a lottery when you come into the pits as to whether your strategy is adopted or not. I've had many races ruined by an incorrect strategy being used by the game in the race and have yet to work out why this happens. Just one of those vagaries of the game that has never been resolved unfortunately.
I will see if I can test this for you tonight when I hope to get my first bit of practice in.

If I have to do 4 tires every stop its not the end of the world but it would be nice to have the option to take two. I'm gonna give the recommended option a try later tonight after work and see if i have any better luck. If you try it out let me know what you come up with!

Unfortunately I didn't manage to get on tonight so wasnt able to test out the pit stop strategy for you Ian. Just haven't managed to squeeze in the time for it this week 😒

Just haven't managed to squeeze in the time for it this week 😒 I had to stay late last night at work so I didn't get time to try it myself either unfortunately. i get out of work about an hour before the start tonight so hopefully I can get home and give it a try myself quickly before we start. Luckily 40 laps goes by fairly quickly here so it should be doable
