Thanks for the practice tonight. Got three of my granddaughter's staying tonight so kept the comms off while they were watching a film in the front part of the living room.
Would have been nice to have seen more of the newer guys on the grid for it so we could all get some time on track together before the season starts.
Nate looks like he's going to be tough to beat in this series based on the two early practices.

Alien fast.....
I’m gonna spend some time with that car on the tuner. I did manage to get the downforce down to 13/15 with some diff adjustments. Haven’t looked at suspension yet though.

Yeah i've still got plenty of df I could remove to get that top speed up but fairly happy with where I was tonight for a first run out.

Maybe we should have more practice today rather than carting?

Willow is gonna be a struggle for me. I don’t know if it’s the changing from the Xbox one x back to the standard one or it’s the jumping from PC2 to iRacing and back but the Xbox feels really light on turn in compared to the P.C. It may also just be a seething thing that I’ve over looked in the consol to consol transfer.

If I remember our pre-season testing correctly, I was about the slowest man on the track there so youre still faster than me mate. Switching to the chevy and learning it should still be fun for me though.

That said it’s going to be a great event and a good start to the season

It’s great to see that a few people have taken the images for their Gamer Tag, my wife is working on some more and those should be ready in the next few days, as before they’ll be available for anyone to use for GT pics

niblips XRF Lemarrrr ReadingRich CUkills @xjoshdigglesx dazp95 Nate Michael drbl4ckout formularex55966 XRF Formula1 railer Uncle De4dly (Ian) __ An interesting but also confusing thing on the tyres.. I chat regularly to the dev for rsDash and he said the HUD in the game shows 50% tyre wear when the green on the tyre displays is gone. For me that makes sense based on how I find the tyres but of course several of you could only run them for 15 laps at Willow!! Did you actually feel they lost grip at that point or was it just that you got rid of them because the HUD display indicated no more green?

Mine were green in PC2 HUD but just a sliver left. Grip was still good.

Can we do a Saturday testing at COTA I feel like racing in a group could prepare use for the first lap so we don’t have a safety car right off the start. That turn 1 hairpin is risky.

I will tell you this much, I know at a race at Watkins Glen in another league, I couldn’t keep it on the track when my tires are gone

We tend not to run online practice sessions during the season, but you can set up your own lobby and fill it with AI cars to simulate a race 🙂

If I'm around Saturday I'll happily run an hours practice session with you. Won't be much point running an actual race to test the race start but it'll give you a bit of time on track to get a real online feel. I agree that the start at COTA will be tough, one of the most awkward first corners on the calendar so it will require a lot of discipline and sensible driving tho make it through without incident.

I’ll be on from 8pm to 10pm Uk time and I’m hoping to improve my times and side by side racing.

I'll try and make it to this practice session and help. Maybe we could go over your wheel settings too. It really makes a huge difference.
