    Today I had a SEIRL moment (Sim Racing Effect In Real Life).
    While I was driving I started looking at the apex de la curve and calculating the speed, thinking if I change the tire pressure and ... no I'm driving a family van damn fool :confused:

    Don't worry, it will get worse with time. You will try to brake with your left food and reach for the paddle shifters on your steering wheel. Also, you start to wonder why the steering wheel in your car all of the sudden feels so big :D

    STUTTGART MOTORSPORT SEEKS SECOND WIN OF THE SEASON AT THE FOUR HOURS OF CURITIBA
    Stuttgart Motorsport arrives very motivated for the competition of the Four Hours of Curitiba, second stage of endurance Brazil, which will take place on Saturday (5). In addition to winning the GT3 category in the opening race held at Interlagos, the team returns to the circuit in which Marcel Visconde and Ricardo Mauricio won the first of four triumphs of the 2017 season, the year in which the Porsche 911 GT3 R was champion in the overall standings. Three years later, Visconde and Mauricio arrive at the Curitiba International Racetrack with a new Porsche, the namesake of what was piloted from 2017 to 2019. More modern than its predecessor, the 911 GT3 R 2020 showed its attributes at Interlagos, allowing Viscount and Mauricio to overcome gt3 opponents. "Winning in the debut of a new car gives an extra motivation to the other races, especially after having spent two years 'hitting the crossbar'. The new 911 GT3 R has already shown its competitiveness, but we still have plenty of scope to extract more income from it. And this will be important because we have strong opponents, who have also worked on the evolution of their cars", highlights Marcel Visconde. In the championship, the duo Viscount/Mauricio leads the score in the GT3 category and occupies the fourth place in the overall standings. The starting grid for the Four Hours of Curitiba will be set in the late afternoon of Friday. On Saturday, the start will be given at 11:30. The race will be broadcast live on SporTV2 and the Channel of The Empire Endurance Brazil on YouTube. About Stuttgart Porsche Stuttgart began operations as an authorized Porsche dealership. Between October 1997 and June 2015, the company was the official importer of the German brand in Brazil. During this period, Porsche significantly increased its presence in the country. Currently, Stuttgart Porsche operates eight dealerships in São Paulo, Campinas, Ribeirão Preto, Porto Alegre, Florianópolis, Curitiba, Rio de Janeiro and Recife.

    IN CURITIBA, SIGMA TEAM LIVES EXPECTATION TO REVIVE SUCCESS OF THE 2019 RACE
    Jindra Kraucher, Aldo Piedade Jr. , Ney Faustini and Fabio Fogaça form trios and share the cockpit of the prototypes of category P1 and P2One of the exponents of the new generation of national cars produced especially for competitions, the Sigma P1 team arrives in Curitiba for the second stage of the Brazil Endurance Empire, this weekend, focused on repeating the success obtained on the circuit in 2019. Last season, the racetrack in the capital of Paraná hosted the closing of the championship, with a race of six hours, two hours longer than the duration of the race on Saturday (5). And the squire of the car of the same name was the best prototype of the race, behind only the powerful GTs coming from Europe and ahead of all the very strong AJR models, even though they competed for a lower category. To repeat the performance, the Sigma P1 will face the curitibana round on two fronts: in addition to the same car that won among the specific cars of competition in 2019, with Audi V8 turbo engine, category P2, the team of gaucho origin will have a new bolide, developed for the P1, main class among the prototypes. A bold design: the engine, four-cylinder and head of the Hayabusa motorcycles, was built by Sigma itself at its head office in Araricá (RS), as well as the vehicle's gear. The debut of the new and advanced model was scheduled for the opening of the championship in Interlagos in early August, but was suspended due to delays in the development of the car, caused by the pandemic of the covid-19. Over the weekend, over the course of the four-hour race, drivers Jindra Kraucher and Aldo Piedade Jr. will be present on the crew of the two cars. In the new model, category P1, they will have the company of Fábio Fogaça, driver who competes regularly in the Truck Cup. In the winning car in the 2019 race, who completes the team is the experienced Ney Faustini, ex-Stock Car. "We did two days of training at Velopark last week. It was able to make the car of P1 evolve a lot. It's a car that needs a lot of mileage, it's a whole new technology," says Kraucher, confident in the evolution of the equipment and, this time, lining up the full team on the starting grid. "We hope to go with both cars and finish well," he adds. For engineer Pedro Fetter, one of the designers of the car alongside the engineer Evandro Flesch, the race in Curitiba will be more solid for the Sigma P1 team than the São Paulo stage. "We had set up the P2 in a hurry for the Interlagos race, so we had a lot of problems during the race. I think we're going to have a clean race," says Fetter, still cautious about the results that can be reaped by his newest creation. "P1 is quite experimental. As much as we have trained, it is still too early to say if we will be able to perform legally. But you have to slap it," he says. The Four Hours of Curitiba, second stage of the 2020 season of the Empire Endurance Brazil, takes place this Saturday. The start is scheduled for 11:30 am and the race will be broadcast live, in full, by Sportv channel by television and the official channel of the Empire Endurance Brazil on YouTube.

    LUIZ OTÁVIO FLOSS LEAVES FOR HIS REAL SEASON DEBUT OF THE BRAZIL ENDURANCE EMPIRE IN CURITIBA
    Gaucho driver will share the piloting of the AJR in the 4 Hours of Curitiba with Alexandre Finardi and Rafael SuzukiThe Brazilian Endurance Championship – or Brazil Endurance Empire – will take place in its season next Saturday (5) at the Curitiba International Racetrack. It will be the second stage of the competition, which, like the vast majority of motorsport championships in Brazil, started late because of the Covid-19 pandemic. And The Gaucho Luiz Otávio Floss will have the opportunity to make his debut in the season, since in the first stage the team Kia Power Imports had problems in the car that prevented their drivers from going to the track for the start of the four-hour race at Interlagos. Floss, 20 years old and with experience in karting, GT4 European Series and the Endurance Empire Brazil itself, where he competed in 2019, will share the ajr ride with Alexandre Finardi and Rafael Suzuki in the P1 division, the fastest and the main of the championship during the 4 hours of the race, which will feature 37 cars already confirmed on the starting grid. "Curitiba has a track that I like a lot and this makes a rider always more confident, more comfortable", explains Luiz Otávio Floss. "We had problems in the first stage, but it was something very punctual, now is the time for our real debut We have the potential to seek a great result and that is what Alexandre Finardi, Rafael Suzuki and I will go. Our expectations are very good", he concludes. The start in Curitiba will be at 11:30 am and the race will be broadcast in full on SporTV and the Channel of the Empire Endurance Brazil on YouTube.

    FELIPE TOZZO LANDS IN CURITIBA FOR SECOND STAGE OF THE BRAZIL ENDURANCE EMPIRE
    Alongside Renan Guerra, driver will go in search of the podium in another long-term raceNext weekend, on the eve of the Independence holiday, the Curitiba International Racetrack will host the second stage of the Brazil Endurance Empire. After the fierce dispute in Interlagos, 37 cars will occupy the grid in the capital of Paraná, among them, the Ginetta #57 of Chapecoense driver Felipe Tozzo and his partner of duo - the São Paulo Renan Guerra - who will go in search of the podium in the GT4 category. Ready for another challenge of intensity and endurance - since the race will last four hours - Felipe recalled the performance in the first stage and designed, in a positive way, his participation in the second official commitment of the category. "The first stage was very troubled, we had a lot of problems in the race and the track did not favour our car, which is better on low speed tracks - which is not the case with Interlagos. Now the second stage will be in Curitiba, on a track that does not have as much difference as Interlagos. In addition, the grid was subjected to a performance swing, an equalization, and some cars suffered some restrictions - which was not the case with Ginetta. Because of this, we believe that the dispute will be more balanced. Our expectation is to seek a better result in relation to the first stage." The commitments of the driver at the International Racetrack of Curitiba will start on Friday (04), with free practice and qualifying. The official start for the race will take place on Saturday at 11:20 am, and will be broadcast live on SporTV2 and the Youtube channel of the category.

    First time I've seen all these beauty AMS cars on a real track. Now, these cars not only 'a car to drive in a sim', there's more a relationship because now I know they're existing and running in real life!
    And there's something new to spend time with.:)
    F1 is mostly boring and with next year no more in free TV (in Germany).
    Thanks for advice!
