Sorry chaps, had to change car as after the last race it became very apparent I couldn't drive the Lambo (felt like a Porka to me
) with constant corner entry spinning was no fun.
So downloaded the track @7:45 tonight, figured I'd go with the Panoz that I've not sat in since 2011
though I knew it would be a bit of a barge round all the corners here & started working on a race setup through practice & qually.
So was quite pleased landing it about 5th/6th on the grid, knowing I'd be able to recreate the times & hopefully better them in the race.
Did what I could through the corners & used the power on the straights, managed to get fastest lap (at time of writing
) on about lap 5 & found myself in 2nd & gaining on the leader Apex. But my medium tyres were already shot away & I was having to put the power down so gently or I'd get corner exit oversteer spins. I didn't have the skill, but I know what to tweak to improve it for the next race hopefully.
Ended up with an early bath as Quicksilver had spun ahead & while trying to get out the way, span himself round & back across the track unfortunately. I had a puncture & suspension damage, him the same I assume
Still a nice little warm up for back here in the GT1's next week
