Division 2 season 10

Hey Guys, exactly how early is the early start for the race this sunday. I didnt realise till now that i have a gig to go to (on a sunday night!!) and that i wont make the race. but if it starts at like 6-6:30 (brisbane time) then id probably be able to make both. No need to make it too early just for my benefit though, ive gotten used to missing the enduros for many seasons....

it's 8PM im pretty sure, which would be 7PM for Queensland.

i think 8pm is normal time, so i would think 7pm (6pm qld).

Stu/ mods - can you confirm and advertise otherwise some ppl may miss the early start

I think we decided the game offers enough fuel to get to the end if the fuel/tyre use is at normal. Since we are on fast, you need to calculate for yourself

looks like you guys have a edge on me at this round, no matter how i go about it i can only manage 2.08.5's and i got a 2.07.9 under draft - i think stu was doing 2.07.1's !!!!

all good - btw, i'll be missing out on autumn ring next week as i'll be in Cairns so - best of luck!

with this week not looking too promising, missing next week, that only leaves laguna seca which i suck at, so while i might be leading now, i think i'll finish about 4th/5th....

i think cob, joe and CJ are looking good for the premiership (er, i mean championship, damn footy seasona about to start lol).....


N64 - what are you doing mate!? get up there, you deserve to be on top.
CJ - wow man, you're really starting to show some pace in the latter stages of this season - good stuff!
Cob - keep at it, very consistent, and that'll take you there!
Joe - likewise, keep pluggin away, you'll be a top finisher!

Cheers Beanie.
Not sure i could do to many 2.07's in a race so your 2,08's will be just fine to keep you in the mix.
This season is still wide open as far as i'm concerned....40 laps here , geeez, anything could happen!

Stuff Cairns beannie, GT5 is more important! Beannie you'll get to drop your worst rnd anyway, so the Autumn Ring race may not be your downfall. I plan to get back up there, still need to find time with practise with all my school, homework, my job and Mus' glitch cars are all keeping me busy!

thanks bean. the problem with 207's is the tyre wear. i think given this is an enduro.. the driver pulling consistent 208-9's and conserving their rubber will come out in front. ive done a high 206, but its a tyre shredding exercise and would quickly see me drop to 210's within a hand full of laps. but thats just me.. im sure the boys in the higher divs can pull 206's all day long.

No CJ you go for it mate....shredd those tyres...i won't mind at all

I think this is the case too, there is soo many corners on this track that are high speed corners which is the worst type of corner for tyre wear, the last sector especially, i already sorted out my two different lines for both qualifying and saving tyres for race distance, i also think 2 stopper might actually be a good option here.

Yeah Mus..1 stop gives you too much time on cooked tyres - plus the pit lane is not that big so any gains made by staying out will quickly be eroded....but then again?

Ill put up a server tonight with 20 lap race we can save our replays and do the number crunching, that should help everyone decide.

Oh crap, means I will have to find time to do some testing. I calculated how much fuel I need to add to finish, but now I need to work out whether one or two stops is better.
By the way, I could do with the practice, my best is a mid 2'08. Will have to try and get consistent and see where the lap times go. Soooo easy to drop 2 seconds by botching certain corners..

Don't let your mrs know your practicing with those losers again

:lol: She seems to have softened a bit lately, probably since I play way less. I think she still rolls her eyes a bit on Sunday nights when I ignore her and whatever is on TV after 7.30

stu, certianly not sandbagging i don't know what it is, can't find that extra second!!!
