UKPnG Season 8 Sports Car Series - Spa - Oct 17

[Mark J]

Not so sure about that, Mark. I've got into the 37's in the GT40, so if the Italians are doing the same in the 906 then it sounds pretty close.

Heh just my lack of skills with them then  it was the 'fast' Italians online and I was full race fuel so that may equalise a little but not 7 secs worth. I saw a pantera do a 37 so that's also quick. I really fancied taking the gt40 but looks like I may have to drive something I'm more competitive in.

Watch this for inspiration tonight, very cool

Anyone got a decent setup for the GT40? Don't know what works well with it to stop it feeling a lumbering beast.

Nice, I get the same feel from PnG as that poor sod was suffering in the real thing.

If that was his qually lap then I think that he has a case for claiming that he was impeded by all those prams!  Full marks for out braking the Porsche into Les Coombs though.  But it's a shame that they didn't position the windscreen wiper a tad lower!

[Geoffers]

Just out of interest, the fastest lap at this year's Spa 6 Hours was set by Kenny Brack in a GT40 at 2.45.494. His pole lap was 2.44.195. So you are about on the pace MJ!

[Mark J]

Hehe, great always knew I could do as good a job as Kenny 
Though that means some of you aliens are even quicker than he is 

...so is it stiff springs and soft abrs or the other way around for the gt??? Full power diff? It's like a bus at the bus stop chicane! 

[Clive Loynes]

Haven't a clue MJ but your best bet is to get in the Pantera as you are probably about ten seconds off pole at the minute.

[Mogget]

I am way off a 2:37 after my first quick test, but then I was using the R106 tyres with an 80L fuel load. Nevertheless, a 2:37 will be impossible with me at the wheel, and I reckon I'm a half decent GT40 driver.

[Clive Loynes]

I can manage a 2:41 in the GT40 and a have scraped under 2:40 in the Pantera.  John can take the GT40 and pull away from me at something over two seconds a lap but would apparently be closer to Geoffers.

The thing is, I see the GT40 as being  there for those aliens who want to self handicap themselves against us humans.  But I expect that the front of the grid will be full of Panteras and, from my experience, following them is difficult because you can't see for tyre smoke!

It is racing after all, and in my book that means getting yourself in the best car and going as fast as you can, alien or not!

Great vid - here some more GT40 from the Six Hours Spa 2013 (especially around 7:00):

Nevertheless I'm even more uncompetitive here than usual in each of the cars to be selected, so I'll skip this one.

Have fun racers

Apologies to Postal for hitting you. I simply couldn't stop the car. To be honest, I was in two minds whether to bother racing tonight or not. I guess I should have done something else.

[Animal Ed]

Is damage sensitivity on server set to 120000000000% or that Panty have bug because it was ridiculous - barely touched the wall and I was ready for barbecue ...

Thanks for that John.
Maybe it could be in the 1st post for the next few weeks Matt

Good race, good fighting all race long, plenty of close stuff & not one bit of contact... till the very last turn, I caught Federico robbing him of the chance to drag race down to the finish line with GT. Sorry chaps.
