I have come to the conclusion that this track is most definately not Viper cc friendly.....Yet another where the pork bellies are going to romp away with it... Lets have an ENNA soon

The lobby was down earlier so I decided for some practice on my own.
I started a 40 car race set at 120% strength. I hope you guys are not that quick as I got whipped, badly!
I like the track, it requires some interesting lines and braking points etc.
It may be tricky to pass, but it will be possible. If you make a mistake on entry to a corner it almost certainly compromises the next corner too.
I guess the technique will be not to try and force a pass between corners but use the momentum out of the second bend, if you know what I mean. The track does seem like a series of chicanes.
I think it will be fun

There was only 1 GT2 in the test race, 1:51:9 qually and 1:53's in race....I would expect the race pace to be closer to the 51's though on Sunday.

So very very easy to end up in the kitty litter here. Especially the last turn, where rear end is in danger if you brake early, and going off track by yourself if you brake late. Hope everybody, including me, are careful at this turn.
Can't really find a good brakemarker there. I've been looking at the red thingie in the background and when it goes behind my rearview mirror, but it's not a very good marker.
