Rooms up 👍

 

[Jonnio]

Might be running a 147 GTA!

 

[hobbsy]

Snap...! Although I haven't tested it yet . I just love the Alfa's

edit: thats tonights task

 

[Jonnio]

Can't remember what time I got to in it, was a fraction faster than when I tried the Lutecia V6. Bit easier to be consistent too lol.

 

[hobbsy]

I think i managed 59's, but the more i keep testing the quicker i keep getting.

Jumping back in the Focus RS i've managed a 57.4

 

[hobbsy]

To all attending, tonights race will be 2x 20 lap races, open quali for the first race, and reverse grid for the second.

You are free to change your car for the second race, although i would only advise this if you find yourself struggling or quite far off the pace.

Hopefully see a good turnout tonight, if you are definate and want to let me know so we can keep an eye out, drop a post here. 👍

Laters, H

 

[MC-Chase]

^I'll be there for 9 if not earlier^

 

[hobbsy]

I hope to open the room before 9, so that people can start practise.

 

[Cu3e]

I'll be there!

 

[Jonnio]

Should be in the room by 9!

 

[Jonnio]

Can we change wheels or not lol?

Rooms open

I feel like it was a good start the series (racing wise). Some close battles, and some lessons learned.

Hopefully we can build on the numbers, and have even more excitement on track. I personally had a cracking race in round 2. 👍

hope that others had a similar experience.

Just a few pics from the second race...

 

[Jonnio]

Round 2 was great, took a lot longer for everyone to "settle" into position.

I did try and get some pics last night but the HDMI cut out for some reason so will have another go at some point.

I have to admit the devil went into me when MCChase accidentally (I hope) smacked into my rear corner. Frustrated, I turned in strong to block the outside. He did not spin but I guess I kinda ruined it for him since then. Sorry dude...

Don't worry about it, you can afford to be aggressive with FF's for the most part and I like to think I tend to push people quite hard when I want to overtake so it was probably good to get some back in return!

Good racing for the most part, both cars I chose seemed to be entirely outclassed on the straights making holding a pass quite a task to achieve. Stowe makes you work quite hard and it seems like the only place I've been racing recently , looking forward to Brands-Hatch.

 

[Cu3e]

Brands Hatch: Honda Integra TYPE R (DC5) '04 - 0:54:420

edit: offline and low grip reduction (always forget to change that)

 

[Jonnio]

My pictures from last Wednesday...

...seems I forgot to take a picture of my Alfa!

 

[MC-Chase]

Some fine pics, nice job!

Looking forward to Brands-Hatch? I should start testing some cars!

 

[hobbsy]

Good job @Jonnio, keep em coming 👍

That reminds me, need to get the car list up and laps set.

 

[hobbsy]

Car List linked in on 2nd Post (should you need any clarity!)

👍

 

[Roflwaffle]

I'll see if I can get in for this Wednesday to compete, internet was playing up last week

Oops, I assumed Honda Integra TYPE R would also be on the list. Just curious, what is the difference between it and the evo and impreza that are on the list

No biggie, trying the Civic tonight

 

[MC-Chase]

Nothing says 'Touring Car' to me more than a Volvo (I grew up when BTCC was good )

That being said I'm a big fan of the Blitzen designed Legacy, so I'll probably end up using both for either race.

That Legacy deserves a premium model amirite?

 

[Cu3e]

BTCC

Got it, I used to be huge fan of the TOCA series on PS1

Its not a saloon car!

 

[SpeedyMcQueen]

Sorry for my misunderstanding but, 450pp "salon" car?
Any changes in "car list"?

You might know Saloon cars as Sedans Speedy? Saloons are normally 4-door and designed to move 5 people about comfortably. They have a separate boot that doesn't lift up the rear window like a hatch-back would.
