Quoting for @glenn88Got my internet sorted (or rather, my internet sorted itself). Shame there's no race this weekend though.

What would be a competitive lap around Silverstone national? Currently running consistent low 1:10s with a 1:10.034 best.

You're clearly not doing too bad. The worst one is the corner that would be Maggots/Becketts, but the road veers off to the right. Really hard to get the braking right for a good line there.

My average is 10.7's, so I'm not too terrible but I'm not happy. Silverstone is one track that I don't know how to navigate, it's got such awkward lines that you need to take.
Edit: The car feels very funny here, the front right seems like it lifts off the floor, and I'm not sure if it actually makes acceleration better or worse once the car straightens up. I think I have a line that helps me better through Maggott's, it's just weird on the power. Sometimes it feels like burying the throttle through onto Wellington helps me loss less speed through cornering and accelerate better when I zero the wheel, but then sometimes it doesn't and I actually lose acceleration on the straight! Copse is still annoying though...

No, we wouldn't mind at all!Would you mind if I joined? Another beginner to fill the Am class a bit. 5 or 9 BST is fine for me. I'll race the Honda if it is.

We race at 5 BST because that was selected as the most popular timeslot.Anyways, thanks to everyone who held down the fort in my absence. Take solace, I was faster than a few serious sports cars (almost beat an STi, did beat several Scion FR-S, a Camaro and even a Fiesta ST or two.
I took fourth in my class, only 4 seconds down on the fastest STi... In a 2.5RS wagon. Quite an accomplishment today. I feel great about my performance...
the class had 8 people, and mine was the heaviest and slowest of all. I might be put into a different class... Or maybe Steve; the STi guy and Snokhana friend. We've battled before, and my little N/A wagon just didn't have the power.But, if I'm transferred to a slower class, I may win the championship.
If anyone wants to see video, start a conversation. I'll send you a link so as to not clutter the thread too much with personal racing stuff.

Yes, nas. I took part in an Autocross. That was the race, today.
but, no, you did not miss a race.Relevant story: one of the guys I talked to was actually part of a Canadian Touring Car Championship winning team. It's relevant because the CTCC has a B-Spec class.
in fact, however, most of the cars today are faster than the B-Spec cars, 
including my own!This is uncommon: I can legitimately claim that my real life car is faster than my PS3-based race car.

Perhaps you should consider entering a series with a higher level of competition then
Perhaps you should fund this endeavour.
Umm, midnight in Perth... 2 AM in Hobart, for example.
👍
Of course.

Can I ask a couple questions?
First: Who do I add for the race?
Second: Is it SS or RH tyres, or choose between?
Third: Are we racing Silverstone or Motegi on the 29th (round 2 or 3)? 👍
1. Add @ITCC_Andrew for geting into lobbies.
2. We usually race with SS tyres. We haven't used RH yet.
3. It'll be Silverstone for Round 2..
