UKPnG Season 8 Grand Touring Championship - Barber - Oct 3

[phspok]

Cars are final, (Wot Walter said)
The Alfas are there for people who like a challenge.

[Legzy]

Hitting 1:36 race pace in the RS1600, competative?

I managed a high 36 in the Escort 16000, but if things are normal, the top guns will do 1.34's :-))

How about the Porka-gang, can they match the two Ford cars I wonder?

I installed the track for the first time last night. My first practice session will probably be no more than an hour before the qualifying session tonight. I have not seen the track at all, so my choice (Escort RS1600 or Shelby GT350) will be based on whether it feels any good in a muscle car!

Looks good to me, I couldn't better mid 1.37s last night in either the Escort or the Capri. Mind you I never have been any good at this track 

I may be wrong but I would think the 350GT was well outpaced here, Boss 302 would be more likely to be on the pace.

[Mogget]

If it is, then it's another outing in the Escort for me!

Same for me. Capri seems quicker than the earlier Escort but eats the left front tyre. I think an ordinary person who wants to get anywhere near the podium will have to drive the newer Escort.

[Mark J]

Woohoo, good news, for once the bad weathers worked in my favour and postponed my eve out. So I'm free to race this eve bad news is I've not turned a lap! Will take the beloved 911ST for the fun of it 

[Walter Conn]

The 911 ST is a really nice drive around this track, but I am not that quick in it.

[goldtop]

Had manflu all week so haven't done a lap yet. Sounds like the pork might be a bit slow then, but should be a nice drive even if we are outgunned by those pesky Fords 

[Clive Loynes]

Combination of jet lag and man-flu here.  The latter hit yesterday as I was unloading the car after driving from the airport.

Don't know which pesky Ford to go with yet but not expecting to figure too strongly in the results.

[Mogget]

I can't see the server in the lobby.......

...and I have just realised that this is one of the tracks that I hate. I think I will put on my Clive costume, and start whinging....

[Stefan aka Postal]

Just got back from a couple of days out riding my motorcycle in the Harz Germany. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone: Very bad and ultra dull roads, schnitzels are too small and the beers are too small too. Not to mention it was swarming with cops! 
So i am glad to back and will fire up the gaming PC in a couple off minutes. Ill try the Escort as it seems a good drive. See you in a minute!

[Legzy]

I was really enjoying that, then all the cars disappeared for like two secs (which led to a rub with Geoffers) & then half a lap later, everyone was gone & connection lost :'(
I was on for some good points there


p.s. sorry about the nudge earlier too Geoffers, not looking to overtake, just got it wrong. Was very pleased you held it!

[frex]

I was enjoying that too.. ..running close laps with Geoffers, Legzy and Otto, but then suffered another pc crash. Probably left my car frozen on the track - really hope it didn't cause any problems for those behind me.
