Thanks for the info Mark. Wonder what the turbo lag is like? Might have to just go with the R51  :-[

I would like to say sorry to SRW and FREX for ruining your race!

No worries Larry, just a minor misunderstanding when I thought you were going to stay over to the inside. And you didn't ruin my race - I had a great race!  ;D

Shame you spun early on Mark, would have been a good battle. Pulled a bit of a gap to Matt and Pete behind, but always seemed to end up back behind again..! Clipped the barrier near the end which dropped me back once again, but lots of fun, enjoyed it.

Congrats Matt and Pete.

no worries Larry, I don't think it changed my finishing position.

ended up having a good battle with spanner, he was a bit faster than me early on but fell off a couple of times, and it looked like he was struggling with tyre wear at the end as I managed to pass him on the final lap.

Never gelled with the car at all, understeered horribly into the slow hairpins and so on the power early and the back end slides. Don't remember these cars being this bad >:( So even setting the second fastest time I was still changing the setup before the race start. Softening the dampers did gain a bit more mechanical grip and help reduce the braking a bit, but was still sliding the rear tooo much.

Knew Dieter would disappear int he race so was a bit surprised by the early braking into the chicane and had to avoid by passing! But ended up spinning a few times during the race as well as hitting the barriers a lot! Once I could calm down on my own I could just about hold on but as soon as I was pushing or had someone around me to unsettle me I was struggling.

Enjoyed that one. naturally as I ended up winning  ::)
Dieter was quite a bit faster, but had a couple of offs, and he slowed
at least once to let me past, I assume because he wanted a "race"  ???

If he hadn't have let me through he would have won, even with his attempts
to re shape the walls...  :D The car I used was supposedly the least powerfull
but I could outdrag Pete down the straights it seemed.

I'm not sure the 1HP extra I was meant to have would have made that much difference. Seeing as I'm a setup numpty I was running what the game gave me so I suspect there were other reasons to  :-[

No, I had just got past you after your car appeared to veer into the wall at the last corner. I hadn't felt any contact, but I had been very close behind and the odd direction change worried me as it made it look very much like I might have nudged you. So thought it best to give the place back again.
