    Ooooh yes, been there, suffered that!

    @incey thank you for you for the comprehensive low down. @Tristan Jones been on NBN since Feb 2017, and touch wood, no major issues with the actual service delivery yet not withstanding errant garbage truck drivers.

    So tomorrow is meet n greet all!

    As you have been doing, please post if you can't make it or will be late.

    During meet n greet, try to gauge your pace with your surrounding competitors. (B drivers gauge yourself against other B drivers)
    If you find yourself off pace, ask for assistance, watch and learn from the quicker guys in your group.
    If you are still massively off pace with assistance, we can look at dropping you into the division below.
    Mid-season dominating drivers will be promoted if need be.

    Generally meet n greet is just quick 5-ish lap races on the season tracks so get some experience driving around each other and seeing how our connections go.

    Good luck and have fun!

    To the new guys, I've send a friend request to. @Mojo_2000_ I've been unable to send you an invite.
    You will need to be my friend for the race lobbies.

    Should be final, aside from the new lads or someone doing flying laps beyond the division they are in.

    I won't be at the meet greet tonight., only a reserve anyway.

    I will be on but just gonna be running laps alone to keep myself occupied. My partners mum passed this morning so not feeling great.

    I won't be available for round one either, going to NZ for The funeral tomorrow and won't be back until next Sunday night.

    It is going to be a tough season, in this monster of a car. I feel that we shouldn't drive faster than 3rd and most of the time using only half throttle :)

    More like he didn't stuff up every lap like the rest of us did.

    I did so many hours practise for that...not to mention the 3 hour race itself...

    Also the last two races I did were TCR and REC at Monza in the off season - watching the other divs lines as they overtook me. Turns out I might have learned something there, I got down to 1:21.5, though only a couple times, but can now get low 1:22 repeatedly, did 1:23 for qually though.

    Had great fun last night - now I know how emmo and incey felt being in front - it feels so tenuous, despite looking like a clear lead! This car is great when you get a good flow. St Croix is so deceptive, just as you get comfortable...wham another slow corner.

    I have been using TCS0, even tried launching without it. You all pulled away quicker, but im learning!

    Maggiore was hard in this car, Interlagos was surprisingly easier than I expected.

    @T F Eccles had good pace! Will slot in to our division nicely I think, will certainly give me a challenge, as the others no doubt will too.

    I think the amount of practise we put in from here will make a hugh difference - I have a jump start on you all, but i'm not sure I will get much improvement from here.

    I plan on being on your heels, or in front as was the case with Maggiore.

    100% agree that @T F Eccles will be suited to our div. Just a pity that numbers were so low.
    I'm planning on some additional practice to make it a battle, already got the missus in my corner saying, practice all you want!!

    This car does not like slow corners, so learning how to deal with that will be the deciding factor in most of the tracks this season.

    Bring it @Tristan Jones !!
