Managed to get down to a 1:16 dead but I don't feel I can knock much more off that. I'm about a second slower if I want to stay on lap after lap!

That's where I've ended up mate, but I've taken 3 secs off my time, so I'm more than happy.

Hah, I'm slower than all of you Might get within a second of you with more time but I don't want to waste any more with this car, I just can't feel anything in it, its way to fast for me on the limit and I've not tried many cars that are less fun. Same with old and new builds. Real men drive Skippys Great version of Brands that. Have fun.

1:15.1 after tweaking Dan's setup a bit and taking all the fuel out - frustratingly I was on a 14.something when the fuel ran out with 200 yards to go. Going to be very tough to strike a balance between being quick and leaving some margin for error.

Horses for courses again!! I felt much more at ease out there in the Dallara compared to last weeks tank race!!! Banged in a 14.4 when I popped back later for another half hour. Don't know if I'll be there for the race yet though. I have told my daughter to get straight out of dance class as quick as possible. She wondered why and when I told her she asked if she could make up another reason to tell her friend who goes with her!!!! I'm sure our resident alien types will turn up and burst my bubble though!

I'll be quite late into the race, so I may even just start from the back. Fingers crossed for my connection holding up.

A 16.9 pb for me, but will be hoping to keep it in the 17's if I'm lucky! In fairness, I'm just hoping to last at least 10 laps

14's on full fuel now! But it's so easy to miss braking for Druids and spin. Well, at least I can drive the track

Incidentally I'm starting a bit of a love affair with the Mazda at the moment (women are in short supply around these parts) and it would be awesome to see some events using that if it's practical for everyone.
Yes, just the right balance I feel. Nice and simple, with not too much setup to mess about with, but still the nimble single seater experience, and easier to drive than a Skip Barber!!

I really don't like the Mazda either, just feels plain wierd like it's on rails. The one in the latest build is the worst yet. Has no feel whatsoever. The only cars I really like in the game are the IndyCar and the Daytona Prototype, although I did try the Vetta TDI at Brands on Gizmo's build (as the only Road Car I don't have) and that was surprisingly good fun. If anyone wants a setup for the IndyCar my Barber Motorsports one is probably pretty decent at Brands as they're similar circuits and as one of mine it's fairly easy to drive too. http://www.teamshark.org.uk/Pages/DriverSetups.aspx?DriverID=2

It's not up to me The decision was to go with the Skip and Dallara this season. As the above posts show, everyone has their favourites so there will always have to be compromises I'm afraid. I hope everyone will chip in their feelings/requests when we come to squabble over discuss S3.
