    Looking at the entry list doesn't fill me with much hope. This going to be challenging as keeping as close as possible to the front is the key to a good result here and Deep Forest has a lot of places where you can come to grief.

    Just out of interest I tested the Nissan R390 GT1 Road Car with a mild tune against my RX7 at Deep Forest to see what I am up against. The R390 is a jewel to drive, very stable and great in the corners. It is about 4/10ths of a second quicker in sector 1, the RX7 gets that time back by the end of sector 2 and then the RX7 is about 4/10ths quicker in sector three.
    The upside for the R390 is stability, it will be able to be pushed quite hard without biting while my RX7 maybe about 20 - 30 kmh quicker on each straight bit but is a handful on the corners. It will be a challenge for me to do 4 races without an incident while I think the R390 will be a breeze to drive. My tip is that Benny will take this easily.

    The other down side is that the Lotus Evora that I traded in really loves this track and is about 1/2 second quicker than the RX7,
    it's replacement, the WRX is about 3/4s of second slower than the RX7.

    I suspect the R390 will only make me competitive, where before my WRX has only been competitive around really tight tracks. Wouldn't stand a chance against the Lambo at full power.

    I'm not sure about the KTM or Lambo on this track as I haven't tested them. Deep Forest needs both good handling and power, The KTM and Lambo should handle well but whether they can cut it on the two straight bits is yet to be seen. i know that the RX7 walks away from the R390 on the straights. It will be a tough night for me, 32 laps without a spin will be a big ask. The RX7 has massive corner entry oversteer which if caught can be a plus but if let get too far really slows the pace.

    come to think of it, I should probably ban some of your current cars because... I can't think of a reason

    Check here for cars that are taken, then make a post there or here to lock in which car you want to use.
