It is such a missed opportunity to move this race to later in the nations cup (maybe the finale?) and use the new hypercars... When I saw Le Mans, i though for sure it will be with the modern hypercars but to my dismay its group C. Is it just me or is this just a really stupid decision?

Yeah I honestly thought it would be the new cars as well. Definitely a missed opportunity with LeMan this weekend
I just entered to e first race, it said 0% water on the track and the radar showed no rain. There was rain sound coming through but I went with the radar and it was wrong. How can you tell if it's a wet start? It was raining so next time I'll ignore the radar and track wetness and go with what I see
WOW, first time I have ever done a race in the dark! Not sure what is worse, rain or darkness!
Qualifying wasn't bad, got on the track as the 3rd car and had a good enough gap that I was able to qualify in 3rd position with a 3:21.098 lap time.
Start of the race went really well, no pushing or ramming.
Pitted on lap 7 using the same tires, no rain in this race! I thought I had enough fuel to complete the race so didn't bother getting fuel, that would haunt me later on! Lap 10, had 1/4 of a tank of fuel! Made lap 11 till Virage Porsche and then the fuel alarm came on .9 of a gallon left! Had to pit and 2 Mazada 787 B's passed me. There was no way to catch them so I settled for 5th place which isn't bad in the Porsche 962 C '88!
I did two races. In the second one, I started from 7th position and finished 5th.
I made one pit stop.
The race started after it had rained, but the track had already dried out. I started on medium tires, as expected.
At the end of lap 7, I pulled into the pits, topped off the gas just a little bit, and switched back to mid-compound tires.
There was no rain.
The race was clean. No incidents.
Both the first and second races.
after an unnecessary contactq in qualifying round started at 15th with no time - but just before race start, I've checked weather forecast, thought it will rain and thought everybody will get on wets, but only three people with wets :)
just in 2 mins with start of race, it started to heavy rain, I was 3th & finished 2nd - getting 8th or more would be the best but unexpected 2nd place was a great gift to myself :)
