Oh great, another car I can't get the hang of! 

Nothing against Porsches, I just can't drive the damn things  :'(

[Legzy]

Balls. I'll be missing this one, which is a shame because it was one of my old favourite GTL circuits :'(

Wise words Can't refuse a chance to drive a pink porsche and start at the front after being away so long, hope to join you for this.

[Mike Miller]

I'm sorry to say GS, but having not made a single start lands you at the back. While I do know your performance level, the concept behind new drivers starting at the back is to guage their performance level. I'm sure you will do very well regardless of where you start.

only raced here once before in the F1 79 cars so had to learn all over again. Tricky combos of roller coaster corners!

1:39.0 for me so far

[Clive Loynes]

1:38.356

Some of the curbs are a little on the treacherous side!

Think my setup is a Donnington by MJ 

[Mark J]

1:38 eh?...you swine sir, i shall do my best to beat it 

[Mark J]

Sorry Clive, new gauntlet firmly thrown down...1:37.659 

Am sure someone like Paul, Mike or Ginsters will be along soon to pee on my parade with a 1:36 or something

Managed a 38.7 so far. But not really my fave cars, actually I hate simm 911s almost as much as simm 906s 
Can cope with the floating around like the back needs two weeks written notice of a corner, but so much as brush
a kerb or raised bit and round she comes. I am running 50/90 and have tried softening the front dampers, but it's
still painfully frustrating, just as you get into a rythm and start enjoying it a slightest lightest most gentle kerb touch and it's all over the road, rather spoils the fun for me.
ANyroadup, is the same pain for everyone, and as I'm away next week I will give it some effort
