Is it a front wheel drive?View attachment 563076 View attachment 563077 View attachment 563078 View attachment 563079
I just got home with this beauty. I'll be on in 5. It's heavy somewhere around 5 pounds when loaded. But it's hard to put down.

Yup.I'll try to keep more aware of the OOB. Was it mostly on exits?
Which is why I might not have lifted some of the times. Thinking I gained no advantage, lifting would be a mute point.As a general rule you don't gain time by running wide on corners though. It can happen but it's pretty rare I'd suspect.

@Mike Lobban If you get @aerolite to buy my plane ticket I'll give him whatever he wants
Hey Alex, we just had another one of those, huh?
Yes, of course the dangerous reentry rules always apply.That is true, but the issue with OOB is coming back onto the track when another driver is behind you.
"14: Re-entering to the track after running off:
A:
It is the responsibility of the car returning to the track to ensure there are no collisions so that no other drivers have to maneuver or brake suddenly to allow you to resume racing. If there's a chance of a collision, wait and be patient as other drivers have the right of way."
If you have gone off and are still maintaining a good speed OOB, you have obviously come into the corner too fast. Without losing much time you can re-enter track and continue on. But when another car is right behind you and has to take action, meaning a quick maneuver to leave the racing line to avoid contact, then the above is the rule and you need to lift to avoid making the following driver take any evasive action.
There might not be any advantage gained, but if the following driver has to do as stated above, a driver is in violation of the rules. Basically, if you go OOB with a driver behind you, you should automatically lift and let them by, then come back onto the track, it's as simple as that.
And btw, it is Lobban you would have to visit, the bet winnings he discussed were all his idea, I only want cash, lol.
Seriously just do what I do. I jump on at about 8:20 and run about 10-15mins of familiarity laps at each track before joining the room.I'm taking July off from all league racing. I'm having a tough time forcing myself to practice and don't want to be a hazard.
Racing with you guys is a lot of fun and you can bet I'll be back

I have time to practice I just never do. I'm sure I'd have done better if I did. That Clio had a steep learning curve.
Most fun I've had racing since I started this league,doesn't matter if it's for first or fifth or last as long as I'm racing with someone it's a blastMaybe that's the trick, don't practice, doesn't seem to help me, lol.
That three way battle for last place in the second Clio race was fun, @swjaxon got the better of us!
Yeah we did,that AMG was a Bi**h,hope to see you back for more bud,that was definitely fun@sxjaxon and I had some great racing all night, definitely some fun moves back and forth.
