Can't make practice tonight, but looking forward to driving the C6-R tomorrow. If anyone's in need of inspiration, don't forget the real thing this pm and tomorrow  http://www.gt1world.com/gt1tv |

Finally got some laps in here. Tricky, very technical track with all sorts of corner and camber challenges. Until you put in a fair few laps you feel disorientated as to where you are on track and still easy to forget what corner is coming up if your mind wanders  I will probably dust off the Legends Maserati if i can make this. 2:02 with race fuel for me so far. Problem with the massa is it needs loads of rear wing so i will probably get trumped on the straights. Cool car though |

I've managed to get into the 2:00's in the C6R ... but the F550 felt good pretty quickly too. |

I've done 6 laps in all 13 cars (I quite enjoyed practising this one  ) & managed to get under 2:02 in all of them except the Viper/Marcos/CR5 (old Vette)... Have not quite broken into the 1:59's yet  |

Can I assume it's the C6R that is 1+ secs quicker here Busi? Any idea if it's still 1sec quicker at somewhere like Valencia? The idea of balancing is to be balanced over a selection of tracks & including pitstop requirements... before we get too far off topic  (There is a next season balancing thread HERE, where I'd love to hear the thoughts of  's like yourself) |

C6R faster than Lambo, yes. And I know about that topic, my post was only about this track in particular (where the difference could be a little higher than in other places). After this race though I will try to test both cars again in Valencia as you suggested, maybe tomorrow, and will post test results in there |

A good race on a track I'm starting to like. The width of track and the long tricky corners certainly provide an opportunity for some good close action. I started the race ok but made a big mistake during the early laps and ended up towards the back of the field. :'( I then joined goldtop as we both worked our way back up to the midfield pack. Some great clean battles throughout the race. At one stage there was four of us all fighting for position on the last two corners. Congrats to the podium. Thanks to all who raced tonight. |
