Race #2 and it's the first double-sprint race of the season. This means that the top 5 of the first race do not qualify in race 2 and hence start at the back of the grid in race 2.

This is a nice track with a good slipstreaming S/F straight but a curvy section where overtaking is difficult. Patience and a good exit onto the S/F straight are the key for overtaking the guy in front.

See you all there!

Isn't that what happened in the first race of the season?

Fun track, seems like you can really lose loads of time if you bodge up the first or last corners...

First practice laps just now. 1:22:3 best time. Great track for trail braking and drifting through the last turn

Idont like the last turn

15laps practise and only 1.23.7

Red5 · #7 01-30-2010, 10:46 AM

I find it difficult to get below 23….
Was on track together with Remco and he was constantly doing 22

maeckie · #8 01-30-2010, 11:35 AM

it would be useful, if you write down some driving line tips&tricks ,, a laptime just won´t tell me that , no matter how i look at it....

No, but 0 sounds bad

0+0=0. And zero is always zero

True

I won't be able to participate. After the last race I discovered that my throttle didn't go to 100%, I tried to fix that, and -typically- in consequence of that the pedals are now FUBAR. Apparently I have a good chance of getting a free replacement from Logitech but it'll take 1-2 weeks.

maeckie · #21 02-01-2010, 02:28 PM

hey dominiek , in case u haven´t send your pedals out already and use xp ,, this tool might help http://www.wingmanteam.com/latest_so...DX%20Tweak%202

it lets u adjust your axxis,, so if your pedal doesnt go 100% ,,this helps !!!!

... i was hoping for another battle for last tonite .... everybody can start from the back,, not everybody can finish there

Thanks, but ever since I unleashed my extensive technical expertise on them, both pedals give a very constant output of.... 0%

. They're screwed.

I agree, that should earn extra points

vonRace · #23 02-01-2010, 07:02 PM

OO this could be horrible race, i don"t find any setup in this slippery track.Well let"s see what happens

Professor · #24 02-01-2010, 07:27 PM

As soon as 250SWB joined I had a loop and was forced to leave. Tried to rejoin but couldn't. Not sure what car he has but it is causing a problem
