(ATCC) Australian Touring Car Championship | NW48 & Aaroh007 Are Your Driver's Champions!!!Finished

[Pubs16]

UNC Motorsports has just had their first hit out in QP1! Quite pleased with the results! Two more to be able to crank out something spectacular maybe in the closing hour of Pre-Qualifying!

 

[NW48]

I might go have another shot at Pre-Q for some practice since I haven't had any!

 

[Com Fox]

I do agree there was the other way but we still don't know if they are going to race. (I don't think anyone said they'll race but not Pre-Q. I personally prefer the dedication of racing even through the rough enemy known as time over dedication on who's fast but. Of Coarse though, this is yours and I don't actually mind Pre-Q, like I said before.

 

[WanganGhost]

I agree that people should make an effort. Even if you don't think pre-quali will help. I set a time on Thursday. Came back a day later and was already going faster. Racing helps you think about how to do things better.

 

[Hayden]

Will anybody be hosting a practice before the scheduled start time? It's been a while since I've done any close racing and I wouldn't mind getting my feet wet before diving in.

Assuming my Pre Q lap will get me In to the pool that is.

Edit: which doesn't look very likely at the moment

 

[Pubs16]

Last two sessions completed! The #16 Nissan improving in each session . Results to be revealed after deadline!

Didn't realise how close I cut it, time wise! Just in the nick of time haha.

Sadly this will probably be as much pre-event practice I'll have , into the Lexus now for B12H.

I'll probably have one up at about 20:15 GMT+10.

I need to be more consistent with my times so I'm suspecting a battle with the mid to rear pack for Group A.

 

[Com Fox]

I'm suspecting myself to watch the Group B action and wait for an opportunity to pounce .

 

[Tijee]

I'll try to do a Pre-Q with the new Lexus regs just before the race. Where can I find these new regs?

On the specs/parts post under the driver list on the first page.

Looking at the times of Group A. Anyone could win, the times are soo close.

It'll come down to strategy yet again, it should be a stellar first round.

 

[lxmmy]

Same goes for Group B. It's going to be a battle of BMW and Lexus with the Hyandai ready to pounce on anyone's mistake.

 

[Com Fox]

Just curious, is Race 2 , Grid Based or is it another Q?

Reverse Grid of Finishing results.

 

[Com Fox]

Wait does Group B start ahead of Group A .

 

[WanganGhost]

Be helpful with the SC. That way we can have a rolling start. And the group a cars can jump ahead really quick.

 

[NW48]

Wait does Group B start ahead of Group A .

Unfortunately since we don't have the Safety Car and we have a tight schedule, yes they do.

However, we can get around that by doing a group reversed grid. It just means that everyone needs to listen carefully, follow my instructions so we can manually set the grid.

 

[David Talle]

Another solution regarding the PreQ is to have one round every 2 weeks... But that means the season will be quite long.

Good luck for round 1 every one !

 

[Com Fox]

When do we start again?

 

[mustafur]

10:30pm NSW time

 

[Tijee]

1.5s more with the new Lexus regs

[NW48]

I'm a lot further down than what I wanted to be, but that's what I get for not practising.

Always practice, kids!! 👍

 

[Mikey24]

1:41.6 did seem a little fast compared to those other times to be honest.

 

[Mikey24]

By the way, @Pubs16 that's a great time! 👍

 

[NW48]

So at this point, those listed above ate the only ones who are allowed to race in an hour's time. Providing no one else joins and topples them off.

Free Practice room open now!

 

[Tijee]

We just did a Pre-Q session with the new Lexus regs:
- @Aaroh007 1:43.228
- @gkgamer 1:43.298
- @Tijee 1:46.803

Just a silly question: did you get similar times than with other group B cars when testing the new Lexus regs, or are they just supposed to slow down @Aaroh007 and @gkgamer?
And are we sure that these regs are ok for the other tracks too?

We had similar times when testing the other Group B cars. And hopefully these regs will be good for use on other tracks.

 

[Tijee]

OK good, now I'm sure I'm slow
