    A few drinks would be an awesome idea! I should drag you ... and a your missus, if you have one ... up to the forest for a few bongs and single malts ;)

    But drinks in the city would be cool too ... I wouldn't mind seeing the big lights one more time before I go all wup-wup-ville :lol:

    And I'm tellin' ya man ... just count ... it will give you something to think about, if that's how your mind wants to work ... and it will give you the vehicle to hold your rhythm ... just count out those "1"s ... :cool:


    (Edit) Re Drinks -- Or, we could throw a shout out to all Melb (or near Melb) Rooz, and see if anybody else fancies a few drinks ... maybe even take in a game (whatever code), or is there a race day somewhere close in the next couple of weeks? ... just an idea :)

    Qualified with a 1:52.7. Optimum is down to 1:51.8. Pulled a 1:52.9 with full race trim (60L of fuel) in a prac session just now... even bet a couple of optimum sectors.

    Pole is a 1:50.7!!!! But that time above has got me 5th in Div2 (12th overall), missing 4th by a bees dick. So that guy on pole is alien as bro. :p

    How would I ever make it out of the forest, I could leave some breadcrumbs. I'd probably eat them.

    Melb ROOZ drinks sounds great. I'm going on holidays from June 8th. How does June 1st sound? Everyone who attends needs to write their screen name on their forehead in black marker so we know who is who :D

    Thanks mate... :D Nah unfortunately the one race I had time to sign up for on the weekend didn't go official.... :/ only one or two sessions per weekend do by the look of it.

    I did get a race in the Caddi in on the weekend. Gee wizz. the Caddi should NOT be a rookie class car, rookies cannot drive it!!

    I must admit I had my own moment due to a lack of testing off the start line.. but, with little practise in this car, I became 1 of only 2 drivers, from a field of 12, to actually finish the race and consquently recaptured the win. The other split had a similar result with, from memory, only 5 drivers of a similar or larger field finishing...

    With that standard of driving I don't think I'll be racing the Caddi in official races much at all.. a pity, because it's a fun car that could make for some good racing.

    The 1st sounds fine to me. We should have a few pints, then find a arcade with 'Super Sprint' (the ol' 80s Atari game) and get a league going ;)

    Yer real tough on my setup. Just did a race in the second split of the Americas V8 race and had pole with a 132.6. Had 56% left on the front right tire after 13 laps in the second stint. Had to fend of second place in the last 3 corners to get the win, just got it with a few bumps from behind. Need to work on the race setup to get a few more laps out of the right tire.

    Its on the NTM now and they have reduced the 4x penalties. Some didn't notice it was on the NTM, but those who drive the car a lot say its feeling good. Might give Sam a ring, I see he been on it for most of the day.

    Getting sent home now, been coughing into the office air conditioner return duct all day and sending emails warning of the danger of office transmitted influenza through sealed air conditioner units. Took a while but it worked.

    For anyone that was unlucky enough to not escape their cave today.... iRacing has signed Bathurst with them coming down late 2012 to scan and release in 2013.

    Can't wait.
