Congrats fellas! What was the total incidents for your car? Bassett’s car finished P9 in third split so at least our other car did good. :)

At some point we let it go. Or at least I did. Was fighting with P14 for roughly 1 stint straight away, he always cutted blanchimont and the corner before to try to escape.

Thats when I started to not care as much anymore. And our setup was waaay too understeery in the slipstream.

Anyway, C 1.05 it is for me :/

Can we sue them?


We do not own the name RevolutionSimRacing therefore I don't think so.

We could say we were driving Top Split haha

Why not? Sorry for asking so bluntly - idk what the cost would be, but I'm just interested if anyone has already gotten into that matter.

Btw: Congratulations on P10! :D

You guy's should skip to 1 hour 22min 29s to see us battling hard for position in a huge train of cars. Was quite fun.

Puh, time has passed and what can I say?? P10 BABY!!

I never imagined we would possibly end up in Split 2 which is in a single class race quite an achievement. @Dutchtastic was starting our race and holy moly, those first 2 hours were pure enjoyment to watch. By the end of his stint, he already gained like 10+ positions. We even renamed the bus stop to "Dutch Stop" because he could overtake literally everyone there.

First double stint for me, I was super nervous and just hoped I would not bin the car away. As always I struggled the first stint pace wise, my second stint was better and by the end of it I could finally kinda "match" Duchtastics lap times. No contact, No spin, no drive-through penalty, goal achieved!

Next on the list was @Imthecrabby and although he kinda vanished from RSR for quite a few months his performance was outstanding. Fast, steady, no wild maneuvers, perfect!

After another double stint from @Dutchtastic, it was finally time for the all-time RSR alien @Puffpirat to get into the car. Same as crabby, nothing negative to say about his driving. Although I was quite happy that I am at least in iRacing quicker than him :p

Many people keep asking me, "How is it?" or "Why are you driving 24 hour races?". It is really easy!

It is all about the experience. The experience with 3 other drivers working for a common goal. Or the fact that you have to fight for position at 3:00 at night. Or if you bin the car, the race is over... for all of you!


I can't thank @Dutchtastic, @Puffpirat and @Imthecrabby enough. It was a pleasure to share a car with you. Those were funny 24 hours, I enjoyed every second of it!

Also a big thank you to @grobi0815, who convinced me to continue racing in iRacing in general, who gave me the motivation and fun back. You took over the iRacing section with 2 people left, nearly dead, and look how your work is already paying of.

Thank you guys, Le Mans is waiting :)

A small compilation of a Dutchstop :D
That's how to gain 11 positions in less then 40 minutes
