2 hour endurance championship

[Cerberus90]

Unfortunately the cost of most of the cars was the biggest problem for me.

After buying the Ferrari I was pretty much broke.

[alwayzsidewayz]

having spunked lots and lots of cash on the GT40 I would be loath to give it up, but if you want I could change to something else?

[idlewillo]

don't worry about boys it was always a risk that the cars would be to expensive. still looking forward to tho.

[alwayzsidewayz]

I am really looking forward to this, although I am a bit stressed at the full damage bit..

I think it will be a very tough challenge to keep the car intact for all that time.

Mine was undamaged....






























For the first 20 seconds

good job theres a start delay at least we have a chance to make to the second corner

[sidaorb]

I wish you could watch races as a spectator as this is going to be epic tonight with classic racers (cars and drivers!) reduced to 5 mph as they limp back to the pits

[idlewillo]

Just to add to the drama here are the gaps that need bridging

Postion	gap	laps down
1st to 2nd	17.74 miles	2 laps
2nd to 3rd	0.63 miles	0.07 laps
3rd to 4th	1.68 miles	0.19 laps
4th to 5th	10.52 miles	1.19 laps
5th to 6th	1.14 miles	0.12 laps
6th to 7th	2.06 miles	0.23 laps
7th to 8th	7.81 miles	0.88 laps

all worked out on the back of a fag packet with a bit of rounding up here and there and a bit rough so no pointing out the mistakes but its roughly right ish.

[Curry Burns]

oh the stress...must rebuild miura with more grunt!!!

[alwayzsidewayz]

Right so to maintain Alex's position in the championship I have to beat Mark, tim and Rob...


No biggie then ... jezus.

had a quick play with the fezza this morning changed afew things, it is now only doing 188 down the straight, i seem to have made it worse!!!!

[idlewillo]

Well after my straight on at the end of the Mulsanne incident last night I have bottled my high speed tune and gone back to the handling set up figuring that been able to finish the race with as least damage as possible will be the key to victory. 198mph Max for me now but safe round the bends.

[alwayzsidewayz]

Damn I really wish I had been online last night. My have to re think the tune and kit the car out with bandages

Hence why I'm reluctant to change the gear ratios, . I always seem to make it worse.

[alwayzsidewayz]

[tim2100]

[Cerberus90]

Great race.

Can't believe I had to pit at 1hour 55 mins.


Thanks Idle for a great championship, best I've been in so far, and I was pleasantly surprised by how well I did.

[Flyin Banana]
