Seems slowish Colin. 1:51 in both the RX8 and NSX and a lot more time. Top speed a little less.
RX8 is a little faster so I'm bring this one I think

yeah it hasnt been tuned much except slightly lower ride height so could see a good improvement with a decent set up on it

I'm away till Wednesday evening, so had a few laps this morning in the RX8, 1:48.5 was my best with a top speed of 165mph, so I'm hoping for 1:49 or so during the race. See you all Wed.

hmm im a bit off the pace atm

I managed a bit of testing this afternoon, ending up with a 1'48.1 something, but I wont be about this week, and it's likely I wont be about for the rest of the season unfortunately, so take it easy and hope you have a good season chaps.

that sucks but hope whatever it is that it gets sorted out soon

That was a really fun practice session. I particularly enjoyed swapping positions with Colin.

Too easy.. so I'm not even going to bother.

lol

@viper

i raise your 2 spins with a drift that went from turn 2 to turn 4 then a 720 degree spin off the track, AMG style ftw

@mule

I'm not going to have a chance to practice until tomorrow night before the race so if I'm lucky I'll be keeping up with whoever is at the back, or I'll be the one at the back

what car you bringing tomorrow?

[CJ1987]

Alfanatic said:

The Brera.

oh nice, so you finally decided to use it this season

[CJ1987]

Alfanatic said:

Yeah, I'm not going to have time to find something competitive and since I wasn't in last event one of my cars is only going to be at two events, so it may as well be the Brera. I'm going to be slow anyway because I don't have any preparation time left, so may as well waste a Brera rather than something fast that I might be able to make better use of next season.

fair enough, least its in the hatchback class so you wont be battling nsx's for class points

[CJ1987]

great racing tonight guys and congrats to furball for his first podium finishes

Yesterday was again very enjoyable. It was fun to race against Furball and someone new. It was also fun on lap one in race two; there were some near misses but nothing serious from my point of view.

you mean today right?

FurballS2000 said:

No, it was yesterday...

you may be glad to know that in race one your best lap was only 0.079 off f1's time

right here's the results guy's:

[CJ1987]

i had the same problem last season in the evora where i couldnt get the same pace out of compared to others, i knew it was partially down to the other guys having more skill but i knew it also had to do with the setups aswell. Near the end of S4 i did manage to get closer to the other evoras in pace which made me happy but 4 podiums so far this season is nothing to moan about carmo

Was good fun last night!

Had some good place swapping with F1 and carmo, had a spin and got back to 3rd.

The reason is was wondering about lap times was that I was doing consistent 1:49.8's and wanted to work out if I could catch you in time or if I should take it easy

The plan at the end worked as I had to dive up your inside to try and avoid contact then the grass played its part!

grass + nsx = spin
