Other cars just don't get a look in with me when the 906 is up for grabs. Had a dozen or so laps and I'm down to low 35s but hopefully that will come down with more practice. I wonder if anyone will get below 1:30?

Not driven them yet, but based on my memory of tests for the previous race the 906 ought to be the class of the field.

Pace wise i had a quick race session with the AI at 115% and the first 3 places were taken by GT40's followed by 906-8(not allowed here) and then a mixture of 906's and GT40s. I didnt have cobras in the mix so cant say what times they can get but the pace setters were on low 1:33's down to 1:35's.
I did a 1:35.5 after half hour praccy in a 906, so hope to find more time with more laps.
ps server is still on Barber.

"I want to do a load of practise again so that my pc can freeze on lap 1 of the actual race" ROTFLOL And I want to do loads of practice to increase the chances of being locked out again.... Let' try subliminal messaging.. (the server is at barber, the server is at Barber) |

Did some laps on the server, and all I can say is the offline AI drivers must be pretty nifty with the GT40 and rubbish in the 906. Best I could manage in the GT40 mk2 was a 34.3, compared to a 31.8 in the 906. I tried the GT40 mk 1 earlier offline and it felt slower than the mk2 although nicer to drive.
I'd be interested to know what a good 'tank' driver would make of the GT40 as it doesn't like to be hustled too much (which I tend to do). Have you tried it Mike? Ian?

What a shame - first Bill says he will miss this race as he is going to an ice show, now you prefer a bag of chips at a bus stop. Looks like I'll be 'really' on my own You youngsters spoil your women   Laurie |

I haven't turned a lap yet, but based on your times the 906 looks like it will be tough to beat here. I expected that.

Hi guys ! I'm new here, and from what I can tell, not quit on your level as to laptimes. Still, I would like to join the race, and I will try to stay out of the way of the fast and furious racers.  From what I understand, I don't need to sign up as such, is that correct ? I've been on the practice server, and I have no mismatches ect. If it OK for me to race, how do I get the password for the race day ? Hoping to see you on the track Stig Ravnbøl / Hotkeys |

Welcome Stig, sure you'll be welcome on Thursday. They maybe fast but very rarely are they furious |
