You know that they're not any cheaper when you order them in bulk, don't you?

Righty hit on a good idea of encouraging MP Race practice given the issues we had in Rd 1;
So what's everyone's thoughts on having the practice server set up for the next combo as just 5 lap (random grid) races with no prac or qual?

Probably a very good idea.
Getting used to racing close online is a skill not easy to attain, the more practice, the better!

Will it be passworded, so that just ARSE members are on?

Hadn't thought that far but easily done & probably worth it.

I can tell you so far these have been way more expensive than the first one.... More scans, Dr visits

Have not even bought new pram, new car seats, 2nd cot yet...... All that being shopped for tomorrow :(

Damm binning it on the last lap and not taking advantage of the carnage cost me :(

Bloody hell. Seeing that I looped the thing about 40 times in round 1, I'll take that. Must keep the practice going for the next round. I don't love the McLaren at silverston. Hopefully I can get a setup that's easier to drive consistently.

:yes:

PS If this was LFS, I'd probably be going soft on the front and medium at the back. ;)

I went hard and they took too deep into the race for me to have any grip. I had meant to run Medium's.....

Exactly what I did with the same result.

I mentioned to norbs this morning I wish the ARB's were mappable for in-race adjustments... to help with the slippery last few laps. ;)

I ran on whatever is on the default set. I got 13 laps or so before the understeer meant that I had to brake a lot earlier for the corners. It seemed perfectly manageable to me.
