Daytona or Jag time I would point out that the Jag is the slowest of this bunch, but it's there so that the aliens can choose something slower and still be the same pace as everyone else.  |

I'll be there in a Daytona or E-Type  Is the E-Type really that slow then Simon ? Only used it twice and loved it, and it certainly gave Jeff a hard time in his yank job at A1-F1 |

The yank-tank never really got to stretch it's legs that much - and the GT350 is not that rapid in any case.
If the E-Type is going to get a kicking I'm happy to take the Daytona, new paint job and all.

Indeed, the Gt350 is one of the slowest in it's class, but it's a blast to drive, and that's all that matters |

BTW, do we have to remove the old folder skins? Or we just can put the new ones to the GTL main folder?  |

So...what sort of times are 'normal' for Spa?.....never driven it before so may be inclined to take the slower but familiar E-Type....unless I learn the circuit well enough and I may go for some thing a bit quicker...so I can keep up with the other jags...  |
