should be a good one. The magny upper sprint a couple of seasons ago still goes down as one of the best. Here is hoping for the same with a slightly different result.

Ooh, rather exciting to start my first real GT1 race, shame I'm always pretty poor at Magny. Think the timing may be a bit out Dave, seems a 15 minute qually covers 8:20-8:45.

Shame you couldn't make the LeMans race Jeff, that Viper was made for those long straights.
I think I'll do GT1 sprint and GT3 enduro...I usually go for 2 championships as a good number. Not a clue what car to use as I'm still real busy. If I'm still not sure on Tues, I'll probably stick to the S7.

I think it will be another season of the Lambo for me, I don't really get on with any of the other GT1 cars at all. So maybe the Saleen.

Yes, it's got dreadful snap oversteer and I hate it. Not in my experience.

I will be dusting off the Legends Maserati to re-commence battle once more. Its been in storage for a season or so. Now got to re-familiarise myself with the speeds of these GT1 beasties. Seem to be on 1:34s race pace so far...any good? (forgotten all the GT1 laptimes)

I might join you for this one. Had a couple goes at GTR over the weekend, for probably the first time in three months. I can't believe we ever thought GTR2 was too easy. Starting to get the hang of it again, hopefully I can get around and stay out of trouble. Lapping in the 1:34s in race trim, which isn't bad, but with a bit too much lawnmowing.

Changing from the Lambo to the Saleen for this season. Used the saleen in my first season here, but couldn't drive it too well. Hopfully i've learnt a bit more by now so may be able to get more from it. Seem to be on 1:34s race pace so far...any good Ditto.

I think I'll go in Saleen this season. Not made a lap yet.

Damn, borked the PC last night so no practice at all, a complete reinstall of Windows needed, and pub after work today, so tomorrow after work is going to be a bit of a panic. Touch and go whether I make it I fear. That'll teach me to play around rather than just do some practice.
