I can say with certainty that Veloci's pick is promote closer, more dramatic racing. Danger's won't.

What?!
On a track where the only way to pass is to divebom....er "out brake" your opponent?
I look forward to getting punted. My door panels should need replacing when it's over.
I much prefer Autumn Ring to these confining courses that promote "Pace Car" racing.

I will admit, of all the city tracks, London is the worst for passing. I would rather had seen the C30 at Eiger, honestly. If Veloci wanted a city course, I would've rather seen Monaco, Rome, or even Madrid.
On the other side, in D4, for both races at Eiger, there was a big gap between first and second and second and third (and I got second in one of those races, and I can say it wasn't enjoyable). I see the same for the first race in D1. I haven't seen the other numbers, yet, but I expect the trend to hold. I don't see that getting better just moving from Eiger to Autumn Ring. I think Danger should've kept Eiger and picked a different car, like the C30 or DC5 (or the EK, even the Spoon if you really wanted to, unless that isn't a premium
). If the online dealership were an option this week, the 240 or 280Zs would've been freaking fantastic at Eiger (as would a few of the others). If Danger wanted, a street Lotus would've been better, though I think any of the small sporty FRs would've been fun and closer, too, like the new 86. Something in that ballpark.p.s. I'll never win, so it is a moot point, but I can promise you: my picks would never be a one-and-done.

Autumn Ring Rev is very technical and you need to have your racing line down. D2 is always close racing...very seldom does someone (me) race by themselves (myself) unless they (I) make a mistake 
London should not even be in the game it's so bad. I'd rather run Beetles at Route X

If the division has more than ten drivers, the directors will simply split the qualifying into two sessions (just like we did at Tsukuba Circuit with Motorcycle Chicane).
You aren't talking about yourself are you?

I agree! The only problem that I see is that London does not have a pit lane like Tsukuba so when you enter the London track you are on the track not in a pit. If we have to split qualifying , the first group of qualifiers will enter the track and the second group will have to wait to enter the track.
There is only one place that the first group can hang out while the second group qualifies , in between turns 3 and 4.
I'm sure we will figure it out Wed. during practice.

London is fun, a myriad of corners and some awesome scenery
This will be a track where patience is paramount. Forcing things here will cause you and/or your victim(s) to visit a store front, not the S.N.A.I.L. way. Will it be a problem? Only if someone makes it so, we all have choices ... make the right one.
Isn't there a large area on the left before the right onto the main straight?
I'm looking forward to these races, should be good fun 👍

Yes, they are different, but with the Lotus, I think the results will be the same. Racing will not be close.

I could be wrong. Maybe D4 and the one race in D1 were exceptions. Like I said, I finished second at one of the Eiger races. Well, I say races. It wasn't really racing. I was by myself until the last lap, when I forget who it was got disconnected.
And, also look at it like this... if we change the car and keep the track, that means everyone will have another week's practice on that track, meaning the racing should be even closer.
Still, my point is, racing will be closer at London that it will at Autumn Ring.
And yes, I'm not a fan of London, but Kaz is a dick. Whachagonnado?
