Title: Re: UKGPL Season 39 (Autumn 2021) 1969 F1 - Zeltweg - Dec 10 Post by: Rainier on December 08, 2021, 10:23:40 PM +0000 I think GPL does not take into account the wings design.
The most important are the settings for front and rear wings. Title: Re: UKGPL Season 39 (Autumn 2021) 1969 F1 - Zeltweg - Dec 10 Post by: Cookie on December 08, 2021, 10:29:52 PM +0000 I would take 5-7°

My 69 races have a habit of ending up with twisted & bent metal. I had been trying to keep further left as the momentum takes the cars wide on the exit. I thought I had squeezed you into the barrier so I retired my car. On checking the reply I see what happened. No hard feelings - these things happen.

But the race was very exciting. Had some good (for me anyway) close running the entire time. Thanks all for the experience!

Figured I was a goner. Moments later, BINGO! :(

lots of action in the last laps and I suspect someone discoed or left the server and took all other with him there is a gap of 2sec in the report where the server seems confused...

If I'd got to the flag, well then, a P11. C'est la vie...

It was thanks to the car's good top speed I didn't drop as badly as I could have.
Sorry to Leo and Dave for the collisions. Title: Re: UKGPL Season 39 (Autumn 2021) 1969 F1 - Zeltweg - Dec 10 Post by: Doni Yourth on December 21, 2021, 04:28:23 PM +0000 All the races have been summed and Yannick emerges as our Champion. Well done. Andreas nails down P2 in the standings with some outstanding performances. Bravo, AG. And Cookie earns the final honours with taking P3 in the final placings. Good job, Axel.
I'm very satisfied with my P8 in the title run considering that I used no aero-assisted rides. The Eagle/Climax was a stone, of course, and I could barely make the 110% cutoff time for qualifying at most races. I ran the car as a tribute to Al Pease whom I saw race at Mosport a jillion times in production sports cars and was a force to be reckoned with. The Brabham BT24 was handcuffed on most circuits with a premium on corner speed but I figured it would come into its own at Spa and Wegberg. It's quite a bullet in a straight line and this proved the case at both those venues. Could have even challenged for the win at Wegberg if I hadn't got caught up in the much-feared mega shunt. A fun season all things considered. My thanks to the club for hosting and organizing. |
