Geezers and Friends Sunday Races

Good morning chaps. Room will open at 08.00 US ET. Racing starts at 09.00 (14.00 UK time)

For the first 4 races we will use the GR4 Toyota 86 BoP on, no tuning. First venue will be the Redbull Ring short track for 10 laps. 3rd place finisher picking next track.

Then we move on to any GR2. (I need a bit of speed in my life) BoP on and tuning open.

Well done, Luiz. That's a great time, better than I've managed, but you guys in the Americas have it easy. That time would put you P75 in Europe. Too many damn aliens this side of the pond for us geezers to be getting near the top 10.

You beat me to it SM! I've only managed 1.06.200, but it's still given me 9 wins so far this week - I have to keep going back to it to make back the SR points being lost at Le Sarthe. Nobody overtakes in the traditional way there, they just try to drive straight through you for some reason....

That's a cracking time, Gary. Even in Europe you'd be top 20.

Thanks Dean in the last section i'm +.150 slower. Can't seen to get close to the top time. Not sure how the 2 top times are 1.200 second better. that's -.400 per section better. pretty hard to believe ? also they don't have a replay videos and the top guy has a top ten place in the "B" Race too and no replay
??? lol
 
I've watched a couple of top 10 replays now but they didn't help much. I can see a couple of places where my lines could be better but they were very different styles. One guy, 1:05.5, was using ASM and kept it floored through the esses. The top guy, 1:04.8, was using no aids and feathered the throttle much more. The weird thing was it looked like his brake pedal wasn't completely releasing. There was a constant flicker on the brake indicator and the abs light kept coming on. I don't know how accurate the replays are but how can anyone go that fast with the brakes dragging?
I've only just realised that you can only watch replays from the first screen and not once you've started your laps.
