I was looking forward to joining in, but can't make it this Friday. Although I have created a setup for the 650s, and it should be good for 2:03s.

If you want to share that with me, I would be very happy :D

I've got a 6hr race at watkins glen this weekend, so all my practice is going towards that. I'll just have to try do this Friday enduro like the last one, with next to no practice.

Damn it. I thought I'd done pretty well to crack into the 2:04's on softs in the GTR.

I should probably start looking into this set-up tuning caper. It all sounds like black magic to me.

I hadn't tested with soft tyres yet, the mediums seemed like a good race setup.

The only reason I created a setup for the 650S is because the default setup was terrible for anything more than 1 lap. :eyepop:

Here is the setup. :driver:
astro-mclaren-650s-silverstone.ini
I haven't spent a lot of time on it, so it has room for improvement.
For it to be legal, you will need to be running tyre warmers, or you need to bump the ride height up a bit.

I'm almost in the same boat. I've done 10 laps and the Toyota was a bit tail happy in some turns so I need to play with down force. I think I will try 2 or 3 hours testing this week to maybe get something right.

It almost feels like homework and you don't do that shit until the last minute :rofl:

Looking forward to this one. Squeezed in some practice, looks like the LMP1's will be doing 1:45-1:50 making for around 50laps. Will be a one stop again (no promises)

I found I have to run an external camera view in the Toyota at this track. I cant see the apex of two left handers that have the orange sausage curbing and it put me so much doubt. Smack them and it's painful.

But an upside is, I'm comfortable doing 47's in race trim and high 45 in quali fuel. Just that camera change alone will have me feeling very comfortable in what was going to be some sort of 90 min nightmare as Norbs gimp or something similar.

You're not alone there. On mediums I'm running 2:05's and 2:06's so far.

I've managed to move some things around, so I'm all good to race Friday... Apart from the lack of practice that is ;)

For some reason I'm imagining tonight not as much banter as last time and a whole lot more groaning and bitching during the race. It's going to be awesome!

Ill be honest, I would like a lot less banter during the race. It is hard enough to concentrate at times for that stretch of time, but with you bitches chatting away like it is a CWA meeting... well. :)

*Ahem* The players should be thankful they have a job and get paid for it.
The players should be paid less.
People have died doing this, they should be paid more.
They put in a lot of work,they deserve better pay.
The women's league puts on a better match and they don't bitch about this shit.
The Herald Sun are cocks who keep writing articles picking on the players for taking their holidays with their girlfriends during the dispute, with the Sun forgetting that both genders are allowed to work these days and people are allowed to spend their own money.
*Some joke only Victorians will get*
*Obscure Boonie reference*

That's about it, anyone else got any other arguments they want to have before the race to save time?
