JB and Gedi...

The track list in the first post is final in its make up and order yeah?

Looking at track list (there's a typo in Indy and Daytona road COURSE ;) )...
Tracks

1. Fuji GT - Old classic. I like it
2. Suzuka - ARGH
3. Circuit de la sarthe 2009 (with chicanes) - OMG My all time favourite track!!!
4. Daytona road coarse - Racing it in IROC this weekend. Set up will be interesting
5. Monza - Lotus and Ferrari all the way.
6. Grand valley speedway - Hell.....
7. Indy road coarse - Frantic
8. Tsukuba - YIKES
9. Nurburgring GP - No Nordschleife? :(
10. High speed ring - Love it
11. Autumn ring - Techies favourite
12. Tokyo - My pit strategies will conquer all!!!

All the tracks were numbered and put in a hat, And my kids picked them out in that order,So it was done at random.

Like the rundown furi, If i remember in S1 at tokyo your pits didnt work out that well.

I gained 4 spots on the final lap through you guys struggling. Considering my car hated Tokyo I was impressed.
 
From testing so far the Ferrari seems quite good at most places, I don't know how this compares with other but it seems ok. Monza and HSR will be tough though.
 
We could make a vote. I would love to have a rain race or a race with possible changing weather (not fixed conditions).
Either Suzuka or Monza have this oppertunity.
But if you don´t want a rain-race => no problem xD
 
Wait and see!
Its not as fast as lotus top speed but it handles them corners lovely!

So does my Lotus. And I have a 458 I use in Ferrari Seasonal and Lotus blows it away...

Yeah, but I was slower then you in qualifying and race 1, but I finished 2nd with a normal strategy.....
 
Yeah but I fried tyres. Now I understand how the LSD and toe work I am a lot quicker and better on tyres.

Ahem, may I remind you of my early season tyre woes?

Yeah but are a quicker driver than me, not as much a gap as before though :sly:

At Tokyo I was miles behind you, who you would have been close to RacerPaul had it not been for the tyre woes. I qualified 4th or 5th, and you qualified 2nd. Your strategy was bad, no offence, this season could be good for you though.;)

I did some maths actually during that race. The strategy worked but I was not quick enough.

I pitted around Lap 8 if I remember out the group with gedi, jb, and several others. When they had pitted I was 20 seconds faster than them. I was gaining by 3 seconds a lap at the end, 1 more lap and I would have gained another position or two.

Also I had never done a two stop before.
