[norbs]

What times are people doing? I am struggling here.

[c.j]

depends on the track quality. In race trim on a dusty track I am 57's. In race trim on an optimum track low 55's. Qual is a second faster.

I expect the fast guys and/or if you know how to tune the car will consistently get in the 54's if the track rubbers up. I can't, I have played with the roll bars in lots of variations and ended up coming back to the stock setup. It understeers for me like an understeery thing, so I am pretty inconsistent with my lap times over the 30 min runs I have been doing. Lot's of crashing lol

[Shonky]

Wow, I'm a fair way off the pace, my best is a 59 something so far.

[c.j]

I have mainly been playing on Grobnik and Spa because I have never raced at either of them in my life. Where as I watch a lot of racing on Mugello and Cir De Catalunya because they are two of my favourite tracks. That said I apologies in advance for Wed for any random spinning across the track. Porsche are kind of alien to me.

Also my computer is being sent back because it keeps hard resetting itself under load. There is no way to predict it, some days 5 mins in, other days 2 hours in. I will take it back on Thursday and if it's terminal I will be out until it's replaced. I have been through my limited knowledge of things like drivers and updates etc, also playing around with the geforce 3d manager etc. All way beyond me at this stage. So I will test it in the praccy but if I drop out suddenly I apologise.

[Enforcer-J]

I clocked 3 laps in a row last night 1.55.13, 1.55.13, 1.55.15

I think ive peaked early

[Bails MacKenzie]

I might be a bit late for the first race, see what happens.
I'll take PCCA_77_MCBRIDE as my skin thanks.

[Santaria]

OK, count me in for this series.

Skin: cup_red_bright. Thanks!

[Syncanix]

Ill sign up if you dont mind, Ill find out what Skin ill take, Who do i pay =-)

[Dr. Pain]

I want the gayest skin available please. My theory is I'll be left alone unless you lot are going to come out during the race

[KNAPPO]

I wont be in round 1.

[Syncanix]

PCCD_06_SCHMIDT for me please
Shanks a muchness

[Boxhead]

track outlook for this coming wednesday:

Fast and dynamic
i.e. 98% +/- 2% laps to improve 20
Tyre blankets = false

[pixelboy]

Hey guys,

I'm sorry but with my sons soccer training on Wednesday now it's unlikely I'll be able to make it.

Sorry

[c.j]

Box if you have the server up Barbagello is good fun in these cars, just for online fun and as kind of a online toe in the water with these cars

[Cursed]

I was having a lot of problems with this combo, so last night I did a full-length run against a field of AI. By the end of it, I think I'd learned to drive the car smoothly, but at best I could only manage mid 1:56's.

My best bet will be to qualify down the back and stay out of the way. (I like how I make that sound like it's actual strategy and not a forgone conclusion)

[c.j]

Santa hit the 53's so that is what the fast guys are aiming for. Expect a low 53 in Qual for the aliens. Rest of us should be in the 54's/55's

I'll be joining you on the back row Cursed, low 57 was my best last night with the fixed set we'll be using. Many years out of the racing seat is showing in my ability to keep up with the pack.

[hylas]

PCCA_777_FOSTER I'll join Bails in the Bob Jane T-Marts

I will be there also mid 1:56's for me as well!!!!

I fluked the 53 and haven't been able to replicate it. One thing I'm consistent at is inconsistency. I'd expect mid to low 54s for me with the new fuel load. I pulled the 53 with the lower fuel load and better tyres.

Sounds like you short cut Parabolica again mate.

[Cursed]

You can change the tyres? I could have sworn that I tried to change them but was unable to.
