Woohoo, muscle cars . Bloomin' heck you're quick, I literally this second posted this event! Are we going to do the same as we did tonight Simon ...euh...that sounded different in my head Would be fun Jeff! I don't think I'll keep up with you in the yank tanks though. Maybe if you take the Mustang and I take the Falcon I may have some chance of keeping up. Have to say this is a great little circuit for drifting these american cars big stylee!

Mustang it is then, will be awesome Edit: Supertrack version. Small, but not a Mickey Mouse version. Indeed, good for these cars!

The last track was a home race for me, and I got last.
The outlook is GRIM!

Yes, what are the top times going to be? I've done a couple of 30 minute practices, did a 1:29.3 in the Mustang and then later a 1:28.3 in the Falcon (with better track knowledge) - I'm guessing the difference is probably half a second in reality, but I prefer the more stable handling of the Mustang (imho). I didn't like the track at all at first, used to the old Zandvoort from GPL, great track. This one's a bit schizophrenic, mad long straight, awkward technical slow bits at the back. But it's grown on me once I got over the fiddly-ness of the back section, you can actually flow a bit through it and it's a forgiving track for small errors. Should be a fun race.

Im hopefully going to make this one BUT it all depends on whether my geforce 6200 can handle it. Have sold my Geforce 7600gt as I want to upgrade. anyone else running a geforce 6200.. Hopefully see you all later. Ant

My interweb connection is playing silly buggers again. After last week's disaster I think I will sit this one out rather than put myself through the wringer again!

To finish first, first you must have fins.

Argh. The beggining of the race should have told me of things to come. I got rear ended right at the start, but luckily the tank didn't seem to be affected by it. What got me was an absolutley crazy Stop/Go penalty. My front driver's side tyre grazed over the rumble strip and I got an instant Stop/Go penalty. Not even a warning. Kind of sucks cause I was having a good race too :/ Watched the top 3 battle it out for a while. You guys looked like you were having fun!
