This is a really difficult track, very technical, getting the power on at the right time in those combination corners is so difficult, my lap times are varying by up to 2s per lap. Great feeling when you get them right, most irritating when your line is wrong or you hit the gas too early and power understeer off the outside of the track. Had a good practice, paricularly in the Mk2 sofa, down to 47.3 in it and 46.1 in the Elite, both of them eating their front tyres.....gonna be a long race. Ignore the AI times, they have mad apex speeds, something's gone a bit loopy with them here.

47.0 in the lightning bug, 47.2 in Jag, and 48 something in Elite, jag is a whale compared to the other two is terrible in a knife fight, little cars drive round it in corners, goes well in clear air though, will be messy if the small ones are not very respectful of the old beasty, high speed braking is cronic, 1st slows it down in tight turns well enough, but is likely to get shunted up the inside into turns by frustrated baby cars

Most of us in the 47's & 48's last night & in all three cars... so that's a good sign (I think ) I managed to sneak a 1:47 in the Elite before having a quick go in the Abarth. More work required on that.

Yeah Ade was a bit awesome last night! I'm now quickest in the Abarth 1:46.8 (I think), but it really doesn't like touching kerbs I'm almost as quick & certainly most consistent in the Jag with a 1:47.0 & I was up on that a few times. Need to have another go in the Elite tonight as that was a bit slower for me so far. Will be on the server from 10pm.

Standard Abarth?
Yes. The '131 Abarth' could possibly manage two laps for every lap of the other cars Also, just want to draw everyone's attention to: Track: Jarama download here (This is not the same version of Jarama we tried once before!)
