Had a very quick blast (couple of laps each) and the Elan seems a little too quick in this company. Maybe the Cobra in the right hands can match it, but I'd be interested in seeing some other laptimes.
Elan 1:08ish
The rest 1:12ish
The Merc incidently seems to be around 1:12 too.

Thanks for the times GT. For comparison these are the times I managed.
Cobra 1:09 E-Type 1:09 Elan 1:10 Healey 1:11
Love this circuit though, It's like a mini Goodwood. The last two turns that lead onto the S/F straight are awesome.

Nice track choice Tony. Had a quick blast round tonight: Cobra 1.08 Elan 1.08 Jag 1.09 Healey 1.13 There seems to be a problem with this track in that any race run on it finishes after just over half way. e.g. race ends 11 laps into a 20 lapper, 3 laps into a 5 lapper, etc. Might be worth checking this out online before Tuesday.

Thanks for the heads-up Phil. As soon as I can get my missus off my desktop pc I'll check that out.
EDIT: The track on the server was an older version, which had a race length issue. I have now fixed that by installing the correct, latest version.

Down loaded this track and deleted my original HAT file but still get a "Bill MMM pukerohe.gdb mismatch" online.
Advice please.

If you are getting a missmatch message then your on the wrong revision.
Please try downloading again as the one that was available here was in-correct.
Your track should be V1.02 (check the readme in the track subfolder)

Thanks I have V1.0.1.0 dated 6 Jan 10. Will sort out. Done but now the track is missing from the server, so I can't check it.

Penney's just dropped. This is my NZ team mates home track. We raced three different TC-65 cars here in GTL but here's the catch we ran in the opposite direction.
This seems to be one of their real life quirks - they suddenly decide for safety or some other reason to race in the opposite direction after a number years racing one way.

Not missing Bill, but probably turned off whilst another race takes place. Check back soon and it should be ok.
