    44 SECONDS?!? HOLY CRAP!

    The plan is to have a really good start
    to jump my fellow Div 2 runners and hunt down the rest of the pack, 2 out of 2 maybe? Can't wait!

    67 seconds wow lmao, 23 seconds after division 2 as well this is going to be difficult the key is to not a make a mistake.

    This was my best race pace wise I think and given I'm starting in front of the other div 1 runners it could be a good scenario.

    67 seconds is gonna be a crazy amount to try and make up, but we'll see how it goes. I will be running the #6 for the race.

    Will have another look at the handicaps as soon as I get back home on Wed night. Didn't change the handicaps for the first event and it turned out to be pretty accurate. So don't hold your breath of them changing much.

    Told you the biggest surprise was here. Tovey should in theory start just behind BJ being in Div 5, but his pace puts him behind Div 3+4

    no need to change then tb, as I think you've done a good job. It's gonna be a tough and good challenge to chase down those gaps.

    I think it will work out just fine TB.
    The drivers from the lower divs are probably more likely to make mistakes....and it will only take a few small or one large error on-track and the gap will be gone....and once gone there's no way the lower div guys will keep up with the Div 1-2 guys.

    Fingers crossed it goes right down to the wire on the last lap or two, though I suspect the fast guys will catch up well before then...

    righto then. Handicaps will stand as they are. As has been said, The higher the division the more likely they are to lap consistently close to the same times, so will make up the gap. Unless they fight amongst themselves.

    Who is hosting? I am happy to put my hand up. Things seemed to run fairly smoothly in div 3 when I was hosting with fixed host.

    We could do a test run one night if everyone wants to?

    Also, is 21 laps correct? Making it about a 30 minute race?

    If you could host that would be awesome. Probably our best option stability/lag wise.
    If possible can you get the room up around 1/2 an hour early, around 8:00 AEDST?
    21 laps is correct, as is it being around min.
    I'm home now so can keep a closer eye on things in the lead up too.

    I know it may be short notice, but with only 14 confirmed entries, (waiting on Sik) should we open it up to a couple of wildcars or just leave it at 14 (15) in favour of room stability? o_O

    If you think yes, then nominate here.

    I reckon if Sik doesn't confirm soon, we should add a wildcard entry. I know razor in Div 3 was keen to race in this event, but lost the championship in the final sector of the last lap, despite missing the first 2 events!
