Ran a few laps at Dubai last night (not been on it previously) - I actually quite like it. Looking forward to seeing how I fair in an 80 minute race after a couple of good showings thus far (sadly I can't make today and tomorrow's race but tuesdays will be fine from here on in.)

The big straights are going to mean that there's not going to be any issue of the GT boys blowing by the NGT's.

B'ah, i bet it was that horrible sandy rain that we get occasionally in summer....usually just after i spent half a day polishing the Porker Did it stay 'hot' and rain Adam ? or literally cool temps to go with the rain? I dont suppose its that intelligent ( ie region specific) in game, probably generic weather changes Be great if Spa had its own micro climate like the real deal.
