I'm expecting pole to be a high 1:09, race pace will probably be low 1:11's, dipping into the high 1:10's.

Well I'm into the 1:16s (without ballast) so the fastest drivers will be 2s+ better than that...

Dave's right - A high 13 is certainly possible in qual trim and no ballast. I like the track in some ways, as it poses quite a few technical challenges, although I think it will be hard to race - the straights are too short and seem to end with kinks, which makes a pass on the brakes tricky.

No practiceserver? And Zacari sounds right about the times. Without weight I did a 1:09, but with the extra load I'll be happy to do 1:10.

If GTC cars are going that quick, they are not going to me that far behind, possibly in front of me!

If GTC cars are that quick....they are using different GTC cars than me...I know I'm not the fastest, but can do 'competetive times', usually in qualli trim. Best I have been able to do in the 360 Modena is 1:17:1
I know 16's are possible...and maybe 14/15's for the aliens....But 1:13's.....about the same time as GT1's managed in the test race....eeek. Something feels wrong with that somehow.

Well, I can't imagine me bringing the Mosler or 350Z down to the 13's. Again, especially with the extra weight.

I should add that I haven't had a 13 yet, but did get a 14.1 in the Morgan, and with a cleaner lap, a better driver than me and a more suitable car (I think the RS will be quicker) a 13 must be possible. Anyway, I won't be doing 13s either tomorrow given the 50kgs of extra weight I'll be carrying. The fact is that on a tight, twisty and technical track there is more scope to make up time in the corners, whereas somewhere like Monza only has a handful and they are mostly about being precise. Valencia was another good place to make time in the corners. Oh, and Zacari had a 1.10.5 for pole in the test race, and I'm sure he will be faster this time round.

Indeed, I'll be 30Kg's lighter and have Michelins this time though I've not practiced yet

BTW, could everyone please practice the pit entry before the race as it's a tad tricky, doubly so if your garage turns out to be near the start of the pit lane. Don't want any spinners on the entry road!

The pit exit is also a bit of a pain - right on the racing line and with no chance to see who is coming from behind. I suggest people try to stay to the left of the pit exit when passing if they can.
