Hello drivers. I have completed 130 races on SRS, although all of them have been 20-minute races and I still consider myself a novice. I'm looking to get into the hour-long Audi TT RS races in the new 6-week series starting next week. I understand that these races have a mandatory pitstop and they have accelerated fuel usage (170%). May I ask you all some questions so I don't embarrass myself my first time out? Apologies if the answers seem completely obvious to you.
- Does the Audi TT RS have the push-to-pass feature that I need to map to a wheel button, or is that just in the TT Cup?
- Do you replace your tires during the pitstop?
- When do the majority of drivers take their pitstop (on average)? 20 minutes into the race? 30? 40? 50?
- Does anybody do a pitstop more than once (besides if they're severely wrecked or they made a miscalculation on fuel)? Is a 1-stop strategy the most ideal?
- What determines how long you have to stay in the pit? How much fuel/repairs/tires? How do I know when the pit services are completed and I can exit my pit stop?
- Is there anything you were unaware of before your first hour-long race that you wish you had been told?
