I think it will just take a little while for us to get used to the car again, and get some good setups nailed down. It does seem a little more diabolical this season; less of a warning before it snaps. Hopefully we can dial some of that out with setup.


Side note... Tom, you never told us you used to race F1

Hi All,

Interesting start to the season, can't complain with my results. Made the basic mistake going into turn one of following the car in front of me instead of the track. Managed to stay clean after that and worked my way up to 6th (by way of attrition). Thought i'd maybe have my best finish ever until i noticed that Justin was behind me and gaining rapidly. My first hope was that we'd run out of time before he caught me. Not my luck, knew i couldn't hold him off so there was no point of trying. My rear tires were going off and i lost it going into the bus stop and had to crawl around for a lap and a half to finish.

Rolling starts are fun but am holding off judgement for a few more races. Mosport should be a real challenge next week.

See you all soon

George

I love Mosport.... I live 20 minutes from there and did a trck day there once. The elevation changes are challenging. Should be a great race

I do, I just picked it up a few months ago. 07 S220 with BOE tune, pulley, and some other minor goodies. About to do the "after" dyno of those mods next week.

Totally forgot. Just checked it - looks like the compile failed.

Recompiled, uploading to YT now. Says 455 minutes to complete. Check tomorrow, should be G2G.

Half a lap in, everybody disappeared and then it booted me out (network throughput). I hope I didn't mess anybody up when it happened as I had cars all around me at the time.

You bumped into the rear of my car, it didn't do any damage. It looked like it sent you for a spin though.

Sorry. I didn't see or feel it. For a while I was driving all by myself even though I knew there were people all around me (not a good feeling) and then it kicked me out.

Ok, which one of you was the guy in the red and white car who hit me not once but twice in the first corner, propelling me into some innocent bystander the second time?
