I found a spare half hour to learn the track, 1:33 in the Pants-tearer so far.  hard braking isn't its strong point  Edit 1:32.1  |

Umm was so long ago I planned these tracks I'm not sure I meant the new one with the nasty chicanes
I haven't tried the old one with these cars I will give it a whirl and if it's ok we could change.

And I can't find the old version handy anyway. You'll have to deal with the kerbs, I must have intended this version, perhaps I was feeling masochistic  We will keep the version 2006, I have updated the link Thanks for the link post CLive. |

It's the sand I can't cope with! My normal line at the last left hander requires dune buggy tyres. |

I'm almost glad I'm missing this one! LOL Well as the car choice becomes ever more restricted I expect the next be be equally as challenging! Will increasing the "draw distance" let me spot the damn marker boards earlier? The first board is 200 meters from the corner but I have to brake at nearer 400 meters. At that distance I can't see the first board clearly so it's a bit of a guess. EDIT: Just tested track draw distance at normal, far and very far.  Can't tell the difference. Trackside characters doesn't help either. |

The kerbs are shockingly bad on this track, obviously designed by someone who's never been on a track These are more like the concrete kerbs you get around car park ramps! But then I guess they are the temporary type as it's an airfield  |

My pedals are playing up. Had a niggly feeling something not right for awhile now, and the throttle pots are definitely on the way out. I do have some spares already to hand, but won't have time to fit them tonight, although maybe a quick clean and recalibration will help temporarily. Hopefully be in the Elan if I can get them workable again.

I expect that the Albi chicanes will bring on the usual curb-cutting-farce, set against a chorus of "I was doing my best to stay on the track". |

As always, putting a wheel up the kerb is not a problem, putting 4 wheels up or over the kerb is.
