That was great fun, what a cracking combination  tt1

Had always held 70's f1 drivers as ballsy heroes, now I know they are a piece of cake to drive  laugh easier to handle than those group cars last week anyway Shocked
Pretty sure a real f1 driver would lap at least 5 seconds faster mind  Wink

Got reasonably up to speed quite quickly and managed 4th or 5th on the grid  Shocked and what a grid it looked on the Brands Tarmac  Cool
My race start was very cagey as cold tyres and heavy fuel were an unknown entity, but I gradually picked up my pace and chased the two ahead for quite a while. Had some brief tussles with Fmg but both of us took it in turns to run wide and he retired after anyway to give me a quiet run to 5th. Not until after scaring the bejeezus out of me down at graham hill bend with his near stationary car!  scared

Didn't see the back guys for whole race ..where were you?  Wink Grin

Love the handling and grip of these with nice hints of controllable slide, I can see a masters historics series brewing  Smiley
Congrats to Jeff Lauda and the podium

Results posted (see above) but for some reason the old ACLogParser I've been using for the lap charts barfs when processing the file.

I was well off the pace so how I ended up 5th is beyond me. I will have a look at the replay tonight.

The setup I was using was terrible, should have just left it stock.

Other than camber tweaks I used the stock setup. Prob not the fastest config but with only half hour praccy under my belt it was the safer option  Smiley

 Smiley All my usual off track excursions resulting in a good many very close laps behind Sutol. Very enjoyable, would love to use these wonderful cars again in the future.

Stay tuned for next week then Bob as I intend to run the F312T somewhere, possibly zandvoort once I've done some testing  Smiley if zandy is too bumpy then probably an Italian circuit for bella macchina!

Haaa, that sounds good.

And then we could do a mini series 312T vs 72D vs Mclaren M23.... Grin
