I've not run a mixed class race round here thus far, but on the Legends forum the consensus is that there's a world of trouble waiting for us between turns 2 and 5.
As such - can I ask for as many of you to turn out up for the Saturday evening practice session so that we can get a handle on what we are all going to have to do to ensure a race with as few incidents as possible.

I had a look on the world records page in iRacing - you can get a good feel for the times you should be hitting. When I set up the champ I took the P50 time of 1:17.268 as a marker for the lap times at the sharp end of the grid.

Same time as always (by always I mean when I don't forget to do it ...) It'll be running 6-10pm. I "should" be in there for a while - but it's my wedding anniversary ... so I might get a talking to if I'm driving for too long .

Hmm, Not feeling the love for this track in the Vette, I can't get any kind of comfortable setting yet. Off the pace again, everyone is getting faster and I'm not

I'm having the same in the Mustang... This is one of my favourite iRacing tracks but I loathe it in the Mustang. Every corner I'm bouncing, understeering and oversteering all at once. Maybe we can swap cars Mike?

Just to remind everyone - the password for the race isn't the same as it was for the first half of the season.
Hoping we get a good turnout this evening, but it is going to be a tough one for sure.

Sorry guys, I'm going to miss this one, I've had some kind of virus all week and although I think I'm (finally) recovering it's knocked me for six so haven't been able to turn a lap all week.
Have a good race all and I hope to be back for Silverstone.

Sorry to hear that Pops - I think we're all going to feel like we've been knocked for six after an hour and half mixed class action around here!
I'm with Shark, something tells me those times are coming regardless Mike - just apply the Radical driving mentality to this beast and you'll be well on your way...even if it perhaps isn't quite as responsive!
