Quite humiliating actually - he's never driven the Ferrari before, cobbles together a makeshift setup in the 11th hour, and while I beat him in qual, he thrashed me in the race. Guess that's the difference between alien and mere mortal..
To be honest Erling the Ferrari was dead easy to drive compared to the BRM I started with, far more grip & much better brakes. It was just a case of altering the brake bias, a couple more notches on the rear rebound & sorting tyre pressures & gearing. More time with the BRM would have got it fairly competitive but default setup is all over the place, nearly undriveable.
Although I have got faster over the years, I am far from alien. There are guys who no longer race GTL who were streets ahead of me. JohnW over at NG beats me every time & in certain cars you are far faster than me as is Ziu.
Yes you are right Geoffers, you are far from aliens because aliens are beheind you light years......and i m right when i say that you are an ace
I concur
Jokes aside; I'm not sure it makes me feel better if you're not alien - that only means I'm even more inept at driving the darn Ferrari I've been in for most of the series..
Cheers,
Erling
