I'm going to miss this one. I'm back at work for the final few weeks before it's over.
Without even trying the combo I'm guessing it's a handful to get the Indy car around here?

I didn't think I'd be available for this, but it turns out I will. I'll see how practice tomorrow goes before committing.

Christ, this is like running F1 on a karting track  There won't be many finishers, are they really crazy enough to race these things here in real life? I have just got into 1:21's on a full tank. But so far not for more than 5 laps without a spin or crash I'm probably trying too hard in some places, but it's not quite balanced yet. Very tough. |

Unlike some of the other tracks, a lot of Infineon has the barriers pretty close so if you do go off, most of the time that will mean a reset. They certainly do race here in real-life; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcvrgxkMhHM...and look what happens at T2  iRacing is SO realistic  |

I've yet to run a lap round here - real life has been getting in the way of racing for a while now. I'll be running on the praccy server this evening, but I must say as it stands I'm closer to skipping the race than making it.

Managed to sneak home at lunchtime for a rapid 10 laps or so. Best I managed was 22.2, but at least after the first 3 or 4 exploratory laps I was able to stay in the 22's consistantly.

Quickly did 3 more using slightly different setup and got a 22 dead. Setup didn't feel much different really, just you try a bit harder when you make a change, don't you find?!!

Love the Indycar but my chances of surviving, let alone overtaking anything safely are slim and none. Gonna join the GTL Turbo boys @ Silverstone - enjoy, see you at the next one . |

That's why I start races in the pit lane at this circuit because those first two turns are asking for it. |
