Early cars have been put in the Garage EU just for testing purposes.
Once we have them close to each other we will sell them for FOC from my storefront - All will be locked as its near impossible to keep them close otherwise lol
Now don't go opening up the gates to just anyone there Fitzy. We have a strict immigration policy, and require proper documentation and the requisite waiting period before declining entry

Sorry Pap but we have already let Parcells in, kinda shows our low standards.
Parcells is the classiest thing you bozos have in the Euro club. But generally speaking Fitzy is right, the standards are pretty low across the pond.
Standards? we have standards! no one told me nothing about standards. I'm going to have to think about that...Okay thought about it and I think I can get under them...Phew.
Now to get on with the testing, 1st up for testing will be the mini and camero in the garage.
The plan is to test them on silverstone international and get them even, once they are even there we need to find tracks that are similar so the mini will gain every thing on the infield and the camero will gain it back on the straights.
I expect you to be sitting in low 50's by the end of it :)
But a good time. i'll have a proper go to give people a guide and stick up a replay.
- I got the camero within a couple of tenths last night, still not quite right. :)
Heh, I am never sure how far to push practice, there have been the odd race where I have somehow managed to get in a freak lap during practice that raises expectations, but unless I can consistently do it... low 50's hmm should be doable with your replay, there is a couple of corners or sets of corners, that the line you take can make a huge difference to the time, That last hairpin for a start, not got that right myself once yet I don't think.

Race your ghost when your learning, because it will show your fastest ghost and that way you can see what was faster. Practice as much as you like, you'll get quicker eitherway.
The last hairpin is tricky, you want to be tailing off the braking just as you start to turn in, then your going to be on the power a little.
I do exactly that, I have a routine I now adhere to. First if it is a track I don't know I just pull out the controller and put the gears on auto and run the track until I am consistent. Then I set the rig up and race that ghost and work on what I think are the right gear changes and carry on until I am consistent again. Then I look for a ghost that is a second or so faster and look for were his lines are better or I can break earlier or later..rinse and repeat until I hit the wall (figuratively rather than literally) My next target is to remove the breaking line, I don't follow it, but use it as a permanent marker like the braking distance markers, except it cant get knocked off.
how did he end up with a silver though?
I will swap him out
He did not run that many races, trust me this boy is scary quick.
Phew well done Fitzy, It's tough enough in there for us new arrivals

Some of us aren't in the EU---
That's your first mistake...
Tourni: you may want to stick them up on your storefront.
Just keep in mind that they are in the testing phase and subject to change.
You could move.

What time will the normal event run? Is it every week on Sundays? Thanks.
it will always be at 8 gmt which is the time slot for the EUSL :)
Will be kicking this off the 1st week of may.
i can do a couple of session if there is more needed boss.
Looks like we have a good set of them so far, I'll keep an eye on them and let you know.
Thanks Gizzie

1st Test session will be tonight :)
I'll be online during the day on Friday and Sunday this weekend Tourni. Saturday is a no go this week because of wife duties
excellent :D
So practicing for qualifying today and sitting at 1:51:8xx Seems about right looking at Tourni's time.

Few of us ran around in the stock Beemers. Tourni, where's my damn tires!!!???
I did a clean 1:54.something, btw simply a clean lap appears to be an accomplishment, and some freak of nature ran into the 1:49's...
