These start times are a little early for me these days and I can see me missing a lot of races I have the same issue. Anything before 8:30 is difficult for me sometimes, due to family life. Traditional midweek race start time has been 8:40 for as long as I can remember...

Would be a lot of rushing and no warm-up

Mike, as were trying to increase grid sizes it doesn't make sense to possibly exclude folk by using early start times, does it? One half hour might make all the difference between some racing or not. Whatdya say

Did not realize the time issue. I'd be happy to adjust it.

Practice Server Started with Lotus Cortina Works
Times seem very close between the cars for me at least. Low 1:19s with either so far.

Just a shame that it's two crap cars and a track that I have never heard of!
Looking pretty promising then Clive I can't wait to hear what you think about the track

Always Mr Positive is our Clive. Ok, so it's not as sunny as Barcelona, but it does have inclines, down as well as up...

Looking pretty promising then Clive I can't wait to hear what you think about the track LOL Been too busy to even look. Possible that I won't make this. Depends on how much time I get to myself on Wednesday night and how other, more tangible, challenges are progressing.

I had a bit of a downer on this track from racing it in iR. But it turns out that it's really rather good in PnG (note to self - You already knew that iR removes all the fun from racing ) & the Falcon was also a lot more fun than expected. 1:18.2 in the Tina 1:19.1 in the Falcon It's most unlike me, but I think I'll probably go for the big brute & try to annoy a few squirts in the hairdressers Cortina (eh Clive )

Not sure the tyres are going to last and although it shouldn't be a factor, I think that I detected a pit lane speed limiter!

I'll be in the falcon to annoy the tina's on the NASCAR portion of the track. I added my Falcon setup to my setup repository. http://www.humyo.com/FSlWqtt/Setups/?a=oYct0BvPY54
