    Yeah I like the challenge of the A but I would hope it wouldn't scare people away. It does take a bit of practice to get it right in that car and if people don't have time to practice they might walk away.
    I'm hoping to get on for a little while. On pcars that is

    The A last night is just manic....really struggled in it and having 2 buttons to press for kers and DRS is well above my pay grade ! I didnt even realise it had both to use till DJ mentioned it ! Bathurst was just crazy !! Pretty good fun, but i needed a valium to slow me down before bed !!

    I still think the B will be a better league car on the right tracks.....

    I actually thought it went really well. Going flat in 6th across the top is heaps of fun! I did get air off that little bump coming down into Forest Elbow though, straight into the barrier lol.

    It's pretty full on. I was actually sweating after a couple of races.

    Yeah i struggled around spa but seemed to have reasonable pace on most other tracks. Need slightly larger grids to try the A and B to see what its like imo

    if we can get 16 would be perfect......will set a room up at about 9 tonight and run 2 or 3 tracks with them both back to back....lets say a 5 min qual and 8 lap race in each.....

    if drivers could reply availability and interest would be great so we can make a final call on the car and i can start to get the track list and regs sorted...is a big job so more time the better....

    Did some laps last night in both the A and B, and both were enjoyable for different reasons.....thanks to the guys who ran as well.....The A is a qualified maniac while the B can be a handful when you get to the limit. I also found the A last night to have a weird dead feeling when i lost front grip....

    If everyone can make a small change to both and save to all tracks so you get the default fuel (80L) would be good....

    I also think that the regs will pump up the tire wear a little as both are pretty good on the wear, so it becomes something along the lines of a 1 stop for meds (run to the end) or 2 stop for softs and run 3 faster soft stints.....i havent checked what the options are for the A as yet....
