Matt, there are three flavours of the 906-6. The basic 906-6, the fuel injected 906-E-6 and the longtailed variant. Are all three available for selection here?

I am away from home for two weeks so can't test. I was thinking all 906's except the -8 and the "E" variant, but I can't remember whether the "E" is particularly faster? The longtail can stay as it's usually slower except perhaps at Le Mans it's the "E" I am unsure of. Personally I like the 906-8 as it has a bit more grunt, but people don't always agree.
What do you think?

On paper it appears that the speed difference between the standard 906-6 and the fuel injected 906-E-6 is slight (10 kph approx). The in-game narrative states that the performance increase was minimal, it just made tuning the cars easier.
I'd say give the drivers a chance to choose.

Agreed. I have used the "E" and the others before and found little difference in my times. perhaps the"E" is slightly heavier? so people can choose any 906-6. Just no 906-8

Is this the right link? PnG link should be to the GTR 2 list of tracks?

Albert Park, Melbourne (v1.1.0.0) is included in list of GTR 2 track links, here:- https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=3356At least that's the one I think is right. I downloaded from your link a little while ago and it didn't work. When I checked it out today I found it was the GTL track. The GTR 2 track above works OK.

I always test the link I post, so it must have worked for me when I first posted it. this Amazon link works ok, so thanks for sorting it. if the link is dodgy I usually try to upload the track to my own web site, but I am workin away for 3 weeks grr mutter mutter, so am a bit handicapped. I am currently in Leeds next week so will be home for the races.

I commented on 906's being great @ Melbourne in another thread but totally forgot that I cannot attend this race.
Sry Matt if I influenced your car choice for this race.
Hope you have a good event tho.

Pahhhh! and I spent hours testing cars here.... Will not be wasted, I want a Ferri v Porch event somewhere if not here. This track is nice with the 906s though, blame Tony for this one.

This is quite a challenge. I'm worried that some may put it in the "Too Difficult" box and wait for something easier to come along.
