Tony for sure, I will send you an invite on Thursday night, not back home unti then. Will check with Chris and Stephane to set up a practise session either Thursday or Friday just to go through driver changes and set up.

If we all end up in the same split, we have to make sure not to take each other out!

Just remember it's a 24H race. Don't get greedy. Over half the teams in our split didn't make it to the end.

After that... just pray you don't get taken out by some dumbass.

My biggest concern for the race is how well the faster LMP cars will be able to judge passes into the braking zones without making contact....

Assume you are getting divebombed every time. Consider it a bonus if the prototype is patient. It's really only the bus stop where I find that I get caught awkwardly by the HPDs. The only other really tricky spot is the kink if an HPD wants to go through there side by side. I generally try to force them to go inside by establishing my line early and then lift so they are clear by the apex and I don't have to slow down too much. If you can't get to the apex of the kink, you get revenge by crushing them as you slide backwards through the horseshoe.

^^^ Valid advice.

Just assume they're going to be a d-bag and divebomb you at every opportunity. Chances are they probably will.

Default Final standings for The South USA Championship

Pretty close season and would have been even closer if everyone got the 5 races counted. Don't forget that next week is Laguna Seca. I'll plug in the schedule and top up the account.
