GOODWOOD FESTIVAL 3X

Race 1: The car was a harder to keep on the track than others. 7 tries
Race 2: Compared to the car in race 1 it understeers a lot. 5 tries
Race 3: Easiest of the three although the car is ssssllllooooowww of the line. Need to keep it in the powerband.
***** CHEVROLET CORVETTE STINGRAY RACER CONCEPT '59 AWARDED *****
***** GOODWOOD 4X OPEN *****
NATIONAL A - NA SPORTS SERIES
Car: Corvette Stingray Racer Concept '59
Mods: None
Note: The car tops out at 200kph. Pretty much every other car in this compo has higher top speed. It is all about exit of the corners and late braking.
Race 1: Very Close. The Z06 will breath down your neck on the final straight
Race 2: Very Close. The Saleen one streaks ahead and is hard to chase as it has so much grunt out of the corners.
Race 3: Very close. The fastest of the three tracks. Everyone tries to pass in the straights.
NATIONAL A - TURBO SPORT SERIES
Car: KTM XBOW
Mods: None
Race 1: Very Easy
Race 2: Very Easy
Race 3: Very Easy
NATIONAL A - MR SERIES

NATIONAL A - FESTIVAL ITALIA
Car: Lancia Delta Integrale '91
Mods: None
Race 1: Easy. There is an old 500 that gets lapped :-)
Race 2: Ver Close. If you get the Stratos in the line up it will give you a run for your money in the straights. Photo finish.
Race 3: Easy. There were three 500s in the line up this time... all got lapped :-)

NATIONAL A - CLASSIC MUSCLE CAR SERIES
Car: Corvette Stingray Concept '59. Tried the Challenger '70 but it tops out at 176kph and it is a wild tank slapper.
Mods: None
Race 1: Challenging. The 427 Cobra is way faster and has no hesitation in giving you the pitt manouver. Has to be blocked in the final straight. It is important to not hit the rev limiter in the long sweeping curves as it unsettles the car and gives the Cobra the perfect chance to pitt you.
Race 2: Challenging. With two Cobras in the lineup you really need to watch out for the pitt manouver.
Race 3: Almost Easy. Of all things the Cobra basically gave up half way into the last lap.
NATIONAL A - MISSION RACES
Couldn't gold them in the first go. They are getting harder. Most take a few tries with race 3 being the hardest for me.
****** NATIONAL A ALL STARS BMW CONCEPT 1 SERIES '07 AWARDED *****
GOODWOOD 4X
Race 1: OK. Wow what a gorgeous looking car... pity it understeers like crazy.
Race 2: OK
Race 3: Car tends to oversteer but gentleness of brakes will get you there
***** CIZETA V16T '94 AWARDED *****
INTERNATIONAL B - TOUR OF JAPAN
Car: Lancer Evo VI '99
Mods: None
Note: Most cars in the line up will mop the floor with you on the straights.
Race 1: Very Close. The GT-R '07 hounds you on the last lap.
Race 2: Challenging. If you get the ZZII in the lineup you will have to drive the perfect race and block him in the final straight. One small grace of the wall is passable but only once!
Race 3: Easy.
***** MISSION RACES OPEN *****
INTERNATIONAL B - TOUR OF GEMANY
Car: SL 55 AMG (R230) '02
Mods: None
NOTE: In a faster car for a change. Very easy wins
Race 1: Easy.
Race 2: Walk in the park
Race 3: Challenging. Mostly because you race at night in a brand new track.
INTERNATIONAL B - TOUR OF AMERICA
Car: Corvette Stingray Concept '59
Mods: None
Note: Uderpowered compared to the competition, it is all about clean lines.
Race 1: Challenging. Clean lines are the key. Every time you slide or cook a corner cost you dearly. Took a few tries.
Race 2: Close. Laguna seca has been in GT for a while, if you know it well this is fairly straight forward.
Race 3: Close. Indy road in reverse. Keep the lines clean and it is an easy one.
INTERNATIONAL B - SUPERCAR FESTIVAL
Car: AMG VGT
Mods: Left it tuned to 560pp from a previous race
Race 1: Very close. Everyone is faster than you in the straights.
Race 2: Challenging. If you get the FXX in the lineup.
