    You did well not to swear. I had 2 moments at the last turn 1 costing me like 8 secs and another on the second last lap which i knew i was going so i spun it across the inside of the turn to not cost so much time

    Yeah i got pretty close to swearing my tits off lol. But getting angry just makes you lose focus and in turn makes you slower. I try to use mistakes as learning expirences so i can enjoy my driving more

    Yeah , I know what you mean , but thank's to Killer and a few other's I'm starting to get my head around as to why I've spun off , it can be as simple as adjusting right rear tyre pressure or some thing else .

    Question regarding the Sunday nights. With current entrants and your desire for multiple rooms there would only be about. 10 per room. Is this what your aiming for to have a smaller rooms just for the sake of having 2?

    We are aiming for as many entrants as we can get, room size will be determined by final numbers.

    We have just barely enough now for 2 average sized rooms, over the next few weeks while we sort it all out we are hoping for more to come on board with recruitment drives at other forums and word of mouth.

    Hey @Giant slayer or anyone for that matter have you actually ran a full race distance yet? I fear that we'll run out of fuel. Always thought the car appeared to be very thirsty earlier in the week but never crunched the numbers. With update 3.0 you get an estimate of how many laps you'll get with your chosen fuel load and its suggesting only 34.6 laps with 45 litres.

    Have you tested on how much fuel you are using a lap for those figures for you it has work out you must be using 1.3 litres per lap but in my testing just now and before the start of the season I was using just under 1.1 Litres per lap at those figures with 45 L in the tank you should make it to 40/41 laps considering it only 37 laps you should be right
    But if you're concerned I suggest go out do some laps and report back on how much fuel you are using per lap

    Just did a 5 lap race and used 5.8 litres so 43 should get me across the line. So 37 is fine but definitely a lot less left in the tank than the other races.

    All the races besides the rain race and we should've been finishing around the 5 L mark

    Not sure what is going on. But since patch 3.0 I can't keep my front left tire under 140 degrees at Donnington. Within 3 laps it's overheating. It's like I have one wet tire on. All the other wheel temps are fine. Looking at telemetry tells me I do indeed have all four slicks on. Played around with tire pressure to no avail. No extreme settings seen in overall setup either.
    I didn't have this problem wednesday night in our fun practice/races.
    Anyone else have this problem?
