Looks like Alexey is about to beat the RSR WR already 


I'll try and get some laps in tonight...

What is the lap record? And was it set cleanly or while drafting?

Want to know if I can beat it

3:05.777 set on a hotlap, so no drafting, but using the lowest temps for max power advantage.

17 peoples was in fight in this combo on RSR . With gap 20+ seconds. Very popular combo! 

[Mark J]

not the most scintillating combo to practise admittedly! would have been great with 15+ cars dicing and drafting on the banking, but there you go, i've banged my head on the desk enough trying to get people to race.

Good news is that most of us mortals appear to be withing a few tenths of each other so the slightest lift will see a drafting opportunity or overtake  Just dont put it in the wall or any damage will severely hamper your top speed.

I love this combo. It's brings something like nirvana feels . But yes, Mark. Better to avoid any contacts. I will try. Better to loose 0.5 sec avoiding car contacts than have a continues problems with all other lap  speed. I hightly recommend you guys to training a starts here. It will help a lot. As i trained a start enought , there is no need to use brakes by default in 1st turn. Just be smooth and lift off in 1st turn begins. The 4th gear in 1st turn will need only if you have a cars extremely loose speed in front of you there. Other things will be a slipstream actions! I love this intriga. 
And keep in mind that warmup lap in qualy will need a 1.5 lap to go

I do have a school meeting tonight, but i think i will make it...

[FullMetalGasket]

You should pay more attention to your own signature 

[Stefan aka Postal]

Yeah, thats why i stated that i think i will make it

Guys,   my apologies for the major mess on race 1 

I was the jam in the sandwich and just tagged the rear quarter of stefan and we got stuck together and went off,  then the bushes were a bit more solid than I thought and bounced me back across the track and managed to hit 2-3 more cars...  what a 

[Mark J]

Quite enjoyed that tonight, different experience with the famous old banking  

The cars looked superb on the grid and tearing around the banked curves  

Qually 4th race finish 4th. Fairly lonely thanks to the T1 spills that affected half the grid   but I enjoyed watching Alex and Kimi duke it out ahead.

Race 2 much closer racing and I had some genuine lol moments when drafting and fighting Fabri, Pete and Stefan. 3 abreast into the banking at 130mph and my car decides to go into oversteer   luckily I recovered it but lost a lot of momentum dropping me back. I then over drove it to catch up, clipped a wall and started losing 2 secs a lap thanks to the dented Alfa panels  
Finished 8th  

Good fun though, well done all

Haha best race summary ever 

[MaxVeloce]

I was sat watching in the mirror, it looked amazing - all the time thinking if one of them got free I was stuffed
