    I'd better reserve my spot then..
    At this stage I don't have anything else that would stop me from being there. I'll still be in the Nissan R390.

    Edit: I'll try join you for practice today too.

    When I made my car choice, I forgot that the XJ220 sucks for power & only a 5 speed box. I would like to change car if no-one minds?

    Thanks for joining the prac run Rumbles.

    After 1 hr it didn't rain at all....I think the 50 and 5 weather setting will make the race even more interesting.

    In the CLK-lm '98 on RS tyres, 2nd lap I got a 3:41.XXX. Just putting it out so we all can gauge our times...

    It is a bit behind ay but in a long race that difference isn't much I think.

    Just checking, did you give the engine stage mods too? I wish we could do those and weight reductions while in an online session...

    What time did you guys practice? Noone was in a room when I looked.

    Anyway, I had an hour session of my own and I think I'm in a bit of trouble here. Im struggling to get a decent setup, in my hour I couldnt put together an out-lap and a timed lap without messing up somewhere. So I havent even set a lap time yet...

    Gonna need a miracle next sunday.

    No engine stages available; it's already maxed out due to being a race car :(

    Here's hoping we get a couple more from GTP if not from here,will make for a more interesting race :)


    Same here Flood, such a jumpy track makes it hard to get the suspension right. I was in Seido's room from about 12:!5 EST and left quit approx. 1:45 EST.

    Really? a lot of other race cars usually have the engine stage mods available to do.... some, turbo also.

    Yea it's a tricky track, even today I was still tweaking the suspension, LSD and aero.

    So you can update the first post, I've decided on the Panoz as my car of choice. Have never driven it before and it actually felt well balanced when I did.
