MULE switched to D2 points table.

Qualifying input sheet cleared and ready for Laguna.

No-shows deleted from registration list.

👍
 
Shaved my time off to a 30.19, but the car is still sloppy as are my times. Bigger concern is these tires take far too long to warm up, so qualifying will be a big problem for me.

Turn the ABS off and lock the wheels for a second or two. ;)
 
haha, what a ghetto way of warming up your tires :P

I really think it just comes down to confidence. Look at what Aderrrm does on cold tires, he'll probably hit your best possible time on optimal tires with no fuel on his first flyer then destroy that time even more on his second.

At least you can warm your tires up aggressively seeing as tyre wear isn't a problem, even on the 2nd flyer.

Edit: 20 mins more practice: 29.6. Definitely know where 2 tenths are.

Never had problem before but turn 2 or 3 if you count the kink on the straight, is kicking my ass this time round.. Urrggg

Hard to be confident when the car's nervous and your feedback's at two.

Unfortunately, a wrecking loose setup is how I got my PB, but I can't see how I can race with it without crashing. :ill:

I'm losing time on entry, but my car just can't go in that fast. Otherwise, I'll be eating dirt.

Rainey Curve (see below) is where I feel I can go faster if the car was predictable.

Oversteer... it's what's for dinner.

I tried running something similar to that just 1/2 as extreme and it scared the pants off me :scared:
(granted I still was jacked up in the front by +5)
 
It's over-steery yes, but it wears the tires evenly (for me) and goes like stink. :)

Joining practice room.

These are probably my final tweaks, still haven't connected a great lap yet.
 
*Groan* The best I can manage right now is a 1'14.xxx. I'll have to try a few tunes later, but sheesh that a tall order.

Do you mean 1'34.xxx?

I sure do hope so. If not, CB is at the wrong track.



I called Brembo and Porterfield to get some brakes for my skittle but they just laughed at me. I really wish PD would have given this car a proper set of hooks. Outlaw and I ran a boatload of laps last night and I have concluded that I will forever be competent on the first half of Laguna and atrocious on the second. It should be a fun race though.

I need to qualify sometime before Saturday as my full day of drinking will commence at 6:00 AM and persist until I pass out or die, hopefully sometime in the late evening. Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

:lol: That must be something to do with the paint. I can beat outlaw in the first 2 sectors but then I bleed .3 in the corkscrew and another .2 in the last corner. :crazy:

Pretty typical for me; the corkscrew and turn 11 just kill me somehow. Although I'm fine in race pace; I can just never manage to qualify well here. :grumpy:

btw, if you want to qualify tonight I could go too around 7PM EDT
 
Whoops! Sorry folks that was indeed 1'34.xxx, it was a late night for me and I must have not proofread very closely.

I seem to be the reverse with a caveat. With CSL's setup, I'm better in the first two sectors, but I lose it all in the last sector. :ouch:

I'll have a room open around 3 PM PST. Might as well Q this jalopy with stone cold tires.

I do, however, warn everyone right now about the exit to the last corner because many that I watched were using too much track. If I see this during the first flier, I'll have to DQ your second flier by default so BE CAREFUL.

(In theory, you can reverse track and re-attempt the corner cleanly to avoid a DNQ, but I'm not sure if that's allowed)
