Now I am very confused  For what ? I have no idea what that means OK I explain, it s for say that if I could drive McLaren I can do something of special as did John at Bridgehampton or Ziu at Mosport. We use say so sometime. |

Nor I... must be like "White Pig" as one of Manteos friends once talked about. Or like "Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs" (An obscure Lancastian saying for being surprised)  |

I think my car record may be inaccurate. I drove a Chappy at Road America, but dropped out early
I drove an M1B at Mosport as well.

I tried a few cars this afternoon, and I can just get the M1B into the 1:05s but I am hardly doing Turkish things.  The Chappys are much the same times, though I like the little one better Not sure which M1B Ziu means? either way I am not going to be seeing 1:02s in it. I hope Ziu appreciates that he is responsible for adding yet another weird and wonderfull phrase into the english language |

About M1B, mine was a prediction and I repeat M1B need be balanced well and this not easy. Who think to take M1B and get immediately speed and lap record, he wrong. The only one that can understand what I m saying is John. Anyway here the Turn4 decide the setup and on this track with CAN AM cars not possible have a perfect balance.

Just a heads up guys; this is one of those tracks where the black tyre marks on track disappear under race & qual conditions, so anyone relying on those for braking points and/or corner lines beware.
Cheers,
Erling

I shall be leaving my own black marks at each corner, most of which will be heading into the adjoining countryside. Therefore, if you do see any black marks and use them as a brake marker, it is probably too late and you can join me in the undergrowth!!  . |

Plenty of sand about, but cannot find any bags to use.  Having looked at my remaining car choices, I think I will have to grapple with a Chapperal and the unfamiliar 2 speed or 3 speed gearboxes. My record with these beasts is not very good, even in the easier to drive cars. TBH we have this group of cars over at GPL and I am no better at driving them in that sim! I did a couple of laps last night, just to check that the server/cars/circuit setup was OK and found that judging the braking without locking up and ploughing straight on ( should I be reducing the "brake efficiency" percentage?), or feeding in the power without spinning the rear end around in a complete 180 were the biggest problems. Also, one of the biggest issues for me was the engine sound on the Chapp. The engine note via that gearbox always seems to be too slow and unrelated to the speed of the car, and getting used to such huge torque with such low revs when exiting corners is taking some time to get used to. Hope to get a few more laps practice in pre-race this evening, but lap times of 1:04 or even 1:02 sound like complete dreamland from where I am at the moment. With such a short lap I hope I can keep out of the way of the leaders as they lap us lesser mortals and keep the beast on the grey stuff until the flag.............maybe get my first finish in Can Ams??!! |

Can only lap in the 2:16/15s, when I try and drive faster I have insufficiently delicate control and feel with my left foot and ankle!  So I actually weave/spin and hit a barrier or flip over it wrecking my car. Doubt I'll last long tonight.  |
