Phil, is the Cooper alright for you? If not, you're welcome to the BRM.  Fine by me, I'll take the Cooper. |

Thanks, that leaves the BRM free. Anybody fancy possibly one of the fastest cars around Brands Hatch? |

Phil but the little BRM could be a good weapon for you.
If you like I could try taming Cloyd's setup for you, in a similar manner to the Zandvoort offering.
Yes please  . Ive downloaded the Cloyd setups for Brands but they are a touch lively for me, the balance between the brake and throttle is critical (well OK it is the key to a quick lap but I've never fully mastered it). So if you can just make it slightly more forgiving it should be perfect. A bit slower turning in but more stable Jethro has given me the Coop but I could swop to the BRM if I have a better setup for that chassis. |

The small BRM is very similar to the BT11 (same engine I guess) and is just a little more stable I think...but I don't do "stable" so the Brab suits me better. But at Zandy on Wednesday I had my first try in that BRM and it seemed pretty good.
Err... Are you back on those funny mushrooms again? That was 65mod.  I'm from the "old school" of drivers!! I don't care what it is, as long as it has 3 or more wheels and an engine. I just turn up at the last moment and drive...sort of  You cannot expect someone of my age and mental afflictions to actually know the name of the ruddy machine?? never mind what year it was made!!!??  I leave those minor details to Arnold and Mabel Glutbucket, my trusty (!!??) pit crew AND it was a Wednesday anyway!!! so, I rest my defence.  |

But we do need another driver for either the Cooper or the BRM! Any takers? |

Guys,
I'll put the ADC server up for a connection test probably around 20.00 UK time on Friday, the password will be "Match" for this test only.
Worked for me. |

As a last min stand in for Ruud, I'm afraid I got black screen and then disco'd on the 3rd lap  Mind you by that stage both ADC hot shoes ( Paul & Stu) had sampled the grass so it will be interesting to see who wins. As I write there are 8 UKGPL runner and 6 ADC left |

Rats! Having a good battle with Augusta? (at the back of the field of course) then just clipped the bollards on the inside at paddock and lost the front wheel After 20 laps not a lot between the teams. Some good dices going on. Cross fingers for UKGPL. |
