A massive big thanks to copes24 for taking the time to help me improve my driving

Was good fun Brian. The car takes a little getting used to and can quickly get out of shape but was a fun few races. Thanks for running the room.

All the races in one day?

All the races in one day?

Yep. Should take about 4 hours.

 

[Bry_St3r]

Hopefully I can make it, but with it being Easter W/E I'm not sure what the wife has planned.

 

[JohnScoonsBeard]

Sorry, we've all been ill in this house so I completely forgot I said I might get on Tuesday. Again not around on Saturday..... one of these days.....

Strangely although I'm subscribed to this thread I haven't had the reminders come up with the posts from the last few days.

 

[Eyeseeh50]

Looking forward to this challenge. I've bought the car, painted it and put my number on but haven't driven it yet so no idea what it will be like without ABS. There seems to be a bit of confusion about start time as I've seen it at 12gmt, 12bst and 1bst!

 

[JohnScoonsBeard]

The car is great to drive.

Edit: I guessed wrong. kick off is 1pm BST (midday GMT). It's now corrected to show that on all mentions within the club.

Ok Bry. You don't have to do all 8 races. If there's space in the room you can join whenever. The points just add a bit extra interest for those who stay in the room the full session. When I post the final results I'll show how many races each person completed for reference.

The car is great to drive. copes24 has been opening shop at midday recently and I think in putting BST that's what he means to do. Last week would have been 12:00GMT as the clocks hadn't gone forward. So that's 11am GMT. It's now corrected to showing as 12BST on all mentions within the club.

Sorry for the time confusion. The first race will definitely start around 1pm BST. I will open the room around 12:30pm BST. When I've been opening the room at 12 the first hour has been quiet and I don't want to start this with only 2 or 3 people in the first race.

See you there Dan 👍

 

[Eyeseeh50]

Here is my entry for the event.
Had a quick drive of it this evening and it feels good even with all aids off. It's going to be interesting managing the hybrid power on this car.
Hope I manage to get finished work on time so I'm on for 1pm Sat.
See you all there.

Hi, I´m new in this place, I would like to say hello everyone.
My car has number 4 (I can change it at any moment if you want), the car is painted white and the wheel rim are red "Umbrella Corporation".
I haven´t had time to taste that car but I will try. See you.

Just purchased the car and had a Quick run out and what a fantastic car it feels solid and appears to stick to the track (although this will not be the case on race day )

 

[Eyeseeh50]

Two orange cars, picked this colour because I thought no one else would!

All my cars are painted orange taken from the Ford Focus ST3 but its not all bad at least my race number is 89

Looking forward to this event, had a quick play on Laguna Seca & I to like the car. Nice one copes, should be in lobby for 12:45.

So I'm using the same orange too, hmm may have to repaint the car, then again..........
