You seem to be under the impression TT that it was going to be something other than dry? I'm sure Dave said he was only going to do dry and a few constant wet ones.

Guys mind if I join you for this one? I haven't raced GTR2 in years, but I'd like to dust it off and work on some modern sports car setups.

Yes. GTC. Don't worry Ian. I'm rusty and Brno isn't one of my best tracks. I'm sure I won't see you as you'll be way up ahead.

Can someone confirm the start time is 20:00 UTC? I am a bit confused with the subject heading of this thread refering to 3:30PM +1:00 and 20:00 in the message body not showing a time zone.

20:00 UK time - 19:00 UTC. The only thing I can see with a half hour is the weather, but that's just the time when the weather report was last retrieved.

Thanks Dave. That clears it up for me. 20:00 UK (BST) = 15:00 Connecticut (EDT).
I'm still working out strategy for this race. I love the endurance events because it puts so many options on the table for you to explore. I started to look at running hards without taking tires, but the only way for me to make them last is to slow down or to modify the setup by raising tire pressures to help with longevity, but that in turn slows me down. I will experiment with mediums next. I don't think I'll have time to fully sort the strategy, but will get better as I get more races under my belt.
Looking at Ian's fastest laps here from the past event in the Spyker is quite humbling.
