GTR - Automotordrom Brno

[_dobbo_]

hey guys, in anticipation of Monday's race I've had a bit of a go at Brno - can anyone give me an idea of what sort of time they are running in GT/NGT cars?

I can run a fairly consistent 2:01 in a Corvette, but only about 2:07s in an NGT (f360). Suspect I am a way off the pace, but would like confirmation, trying to decide on the move up to GTs.

Nope, if that's what FWDs list says then I've been practicing the wrong track, not you guys. Boll and indeed ocks.

Best get at enna then!

ok so judging by that I am about 10 seconds off the pace at Brno.

I remember playing Toca online a lot and one day I had an epiphany, realised I could carry much more speed through corners and was suddenly faster and started winning races. Just have to hope for the same thing to happen in GTR I guess!

First go, lapping at about 1:34 in a 550. Reckon I've got a bit I can chop out of that.

Seems it's all about the kerbs at enna - and avoiding those tyres!

Thanks for this Jimmy / FWD. after another hours practice this morning I can now manage about a 1:32.4 hotlap, and my race pace is in the low to mid 1:30s

However when the sweaty palm pressure of monday night rolls around, who knows what will happen. Plus a tiny lapse in concentration at either of those two chicanes and it's goodnight, game over.
