Hmm, think I'll give this a miss after all. Turns out I'm hopelessly under-prepared in terms of setup, oval etiquette/rules and I'd be nothing more than a liability to those who are ready.
GL to all who do participate.

It was quite amusing watching you run up into the wall behind me over and over last night.  I'm still undecided about whether to race or not, but if I do I'll be running a megadownforce package and tooling round waiting for safety cars. |

Didn't stop anyone last time  Maybe get a few more laps in during pre-race practice Brendan? It should 'click' at some point. There's only 2 turns, how hard can it be?  I had a good session with Bernie early on (unfortunately I had to bail), I seemed to have more success running the outside line that I had previously. As there won't be a huge turnout, I'm hoping we'll get some really good green runs, I'm really looking forward to it. |

Whats the right way to join the track when coming out of the pits ?? Do you have to drive under the line until after the first turn?

Surprisingly, it's legal to join into T1 according to the pit lane info...
I doubt it would be safe to do so under green though so I'd recommend joining on the back straight after T2 .

Ok thanks Pops.....Its quite tricky to drive round on the flat under the first turn with the way the car is set up and that big bump . Watch out for the bump! |

Dont think its a good idea to drive round under the line when leaving the pits, i can see it causing havoc , Its way to easy to spin unless your doing 20mph. |
