I think the same as we will on thursdays 8:30pm GMT - 9:30 CET
 
Don't forget: Monday March 5th, practice at 9:30 CET - 8:30 GMT

4 short 15 minutes races on the choses tracks.

Looking at the tracks, I saw that a complete warm-up lap is not always the best idea and that, in order to avoid incidents, there are better points where we can place the real start.

Starting points:

Monza: exit of chicane 2 (the one before Lesmo)
Nurburgring GP/F: intermediate 1
Laguna Seca & Francorchamps: exit of last corner (means the straight can be used for passing)

We will test this, if it does not work, we can change it.
 
I have to say that yesterday testing has been interesting. I have the feeling that when you're ahead it's easier to drive carefully, if you follow someone is very difficult to keep up and find the good spot to pass expecially in Nurb GP and Laguna. Turbo you impressed me on Nurb GP, excellent pace!! :)

Anyway I love the way you have to accelerate carefully out of the corners with this car/tires!! Very realistic 👍

Indeed, and that's part of the realism you are speaking of.

Turbo you impressed me on Nurb GP, excellent pace!!

Unfortunately, that's the only track on which I can follow the pace of the faster guys. On Francorchamps (my home track!) you were 3-4 seconds/lap faster than me.

What lap times was you running?

You should ask Gippone, but as I can see (remember):

Monza: Gippone was certainly in the low 1:50s
Nurburgring: I did low 2:08's; Gippone was probably faster, but he didn't keep the car on the track.
Laguna Seca: Gippone must have been under 1:30
Francorchamps: Gippone was under 2:30 I believe.


Number of laps for the races:


Monza: 25
Nurburgring: 22
Laguna Seca: 30
Francorchamps: 20
 
Yesterday results:

Monza:

1. Gprili
2. Cobrius

5. Jackargent
6. Allascato

Nurburgring G/F:

1. Turbogeit
2. Gprili

5. Cobrius
6. Allascato

Francorchamps:

Nearly the "Grand Slam" for Gprili
 
My best lap times during the races:

Monza 1:52.794
Nurb GP/F 2:07.609
Laguna 1:31.083
Spa 2:27.710
 
Yikes, Gprili, if you're consistent with those 1:52 lap times on Monza, I'm in trouble! Looking forward to this, gents.
 
Watermelonpunch, I think you should buy a second PS3 such that you can both participate at the same time in races :):)

I hope everybody will be there this evening, because it is gonna be exciting.
