Is it possible to have a rolling start on SSR7? I just think it would suit the track more given that it's really just 2 big straight lines without a proper grid.
 
Like i said, the start makes nearly no difference on that track so do what ever you like i don't care.

Edit: wow i really need some practise with the new car. but since it only was the very first time i drove it i guess i shouldn't give up on it yet. at least managed a 1:11:2 on tsukuba after a while.. much to gain still.

SSR7 would be hard to set up a Rolling start in, as the outlap would be like 7 mins long. We could do something like, all cruise for 20 secs then floor it on 0:20 or something, but I don't think position is important there, just clever drafting. So, people who fall behind will just have to latch onto someone and slip past.

Hehe. Hopefully these pictures will help attract more interest!
 
Tried some more with my sileighty on tsukuba and i really can't get under that 1:11.4, i can do that time many times but not under :P I can't see where i will gain another two seconds.. although in my private lounge i can't seem to get the tires hot so that may make some difference. I'll have to test with you guys to see my real pace.. how much i really have to catch up. (let's hope it's not more :) )

I'm sure you'll be fine. Even if you don't pick the pace up, it's only one of the five races! And sumo, thanks a lot, that last one is now my screensaver :)
 
Here it is.

That picture's really nice, too bad i'm not in it or i would have used it as well. :)

I think i'm gonna do some practising now, is anyone else practising at the moment?
 
Eclat! You haven't changed my car in the driver register yet. Hop to it!

I am repeating this to you! Remember I've switched to the FC, the Skyline I have in the drivers list is now old hat!
 
Me and sumo had a little practise of our own yesterday. It was a tiny bit comforting that he could only do 1:10.2 at the moment and that i could get down to 1:10.8.

I don't wan't to talk about the races we had though ^^
