I'm assuming:- In no particular order;
Means they might not be in that order. |

I'm on me hols from 1st August to 18th August so I'm possibly going to miss the first two rounds. I don't expect the schedule to be arranged around me but I'd be happy to miss Silverstone and VIR and I'm one of the few who like ovals! |

The Milwaukee mile CAN be great fun when racing with the right people but on the other hand it really can be the worst race ever.
With not racing much lately I've not had to buy Zandvoort as yet, but will do.
Daytona road? Does anybody like that track?

Are we not the right people Brian?!! Hopefully! Milwaukee is easy to drive alone but requires a lot of skill, attention and care whilst in traffic. Obviously here one mistake can wipe out a lot of other drivers and I'm reading too often people including in their race reports about lack of practice. I just hope people don't take it too lightly and put the practice in with other cars. |

It is all about making the tyres last and being in position for the final 10 or so laps shoot out!! |

Didn't I read that Milwaukee was no longer on the official Mazda rota?  Not a problem for me as I already have it, but for people that don't oval it large style, would it not be worth using what ever oval the Mazda is using this season? Of course I could be wrong about all of it!  I won't be at Laguna as my PC can't handle it & I don't own Daytona currently. So if we're doing a phone in style requests show here, I'd be happy to see either of those on the 17th August  Looks good though, like the track variations. |

Yes, they are using Pheonix I think, but I'm happy doing Milwaukee with SROU. Pheonix is supposed to be a pedal to the floor flat out track, whereas Milwaukee does require a slight lift, at least for me. |
