Had fun today, even if I was at the back. Thanks for letting me but in. Sorry I had to cut out early though. Look forward to the next one!

No worries mate, it was fun despite two disastrous races for me. That was one hell of a track and passing was really hard. I wonder what the hell kurupt will come up with for next week...

Hi Guys!

Just out of interest, what sort of times are you setting on Rockingham?

I know the track from the BTCC but I've never actually driven on it... until tonight that is and it's a hell of a track to learn blush

I've only done about 30 laps on it so far (2007 Honda and Seat), but it would help to know a ballpark figure for lap times yes

TIA,

Mapo

There is no pressure man, not till you win...then you attract attention LOL...If you have already done 30 laps your way ahead of most of us, that's probably the maximum I will do with a couple of mock races with the AI to get an idea of overtaking spots. Trouble is too many races demanding practice 78

Shut it church!  I am going to have to really focus now and get under 1.50 at least.

After getting my wheel set up properly I managed to set a 1:49.990 so I'm sure you'll beat that by a good second or two Church cheeky

Well I am in trouble LOL don't like this track at all and am off the pace by a couple of seconds...will need to depend on staying out of trouble and hoping that my habit of picking up time under race pressure works for me.

I downloaded a setup from the online files section (not sure if this is permitted) but I've not tried the car with the default setup - I'll give it a try later and see what time I set. I was using the 2007 Seat to set times today.

I would rather use the default setup if it means everyones times are going to be closer 16

Use what works mate, Kurupt can tune so you could say that puts him at an unfair advantage over those that can't, so if you find an online tune that works for you use it. I usually run with the default but the odd time have used a downloaded tune.

I am with you Knight.  I am having trouble getting the hang of this track and not sure how i can beat my 1:51 because when i try to squeeze a little more speed into a corner I go into the grass. But perhaps you are onto something with adding time in the pressure of the race. I seem to have the same habit too.

I call all out disaster on turn 1, that crazy chicane is going to be a nightmare to get through clean.

True, or maybe it is part of my elaborate plan to make you all think I am going to be slow this week and you all focus on somebody else.  55

I will be happy to just finish this race, let alone win.

I managed a 1:48.700 tonight, but with the right lap I think it's possible to break into the 1:47's!!
