I did a handful of laps around here last week and didn't get anywhere near 1:34's. 1:36's were more the mark I was hitting.

What is the setup you are using here Tyler? Over just tried running with aero at 5/5 and I can get more easily into the 36's but still cannot see a way to get another 2 seconds off that. The back gets so loose going through turn 1 and Ascari that's it's too easy to end up spinning out.

I do know I used something like 2/1, 1/1, 1/0, or 0/0 for the areo. |

I was running some laps using 2/2 aero last night and it felt a little loose at times. 5/5 felt great but the lap times were slow... in the 36s and 37s

Definitely the lower aero is the way to go. Managed a best in the mid 32's with it last night and I'm pretty sure 31's are possible if you hit everything right. I'm finding most time to be gained through the Lesmo's and most danger to be had out of Ascari.

Great event everyone, Congratulations to Peter for the win and Team Lotus for the 1-2. I couldn't keep up with them and didn't get into the 32s until the last handful of laps.
Thanks again to Neale and Mike for their participation in this series.

Yeah good race tonight. I was enjoying the battle up front Tyler. I seemed to just have the edge and be able to gradually pull away by a couple of tenths each lap but never enough to be confident of the win until you had your incident. It looked like I was going to have a cruise to the win after that with a 45 second lead over Karl but too much talking led to me losing focus momentarily and touching the wall on the outside Lesmo 2 and picking up 11% left front suspension damage. Pitted straight away and it took over 20 seconds to repair and I came out just ahead of my team mate. We were within a couple of seconds for the next few laps until coming across Greg and Mike's incident. After both nearly crapping ourselves (and laughing at the car with the hay bale on top of it lol) we got through unscathed but the gap was now just over 5 seconds and stayed between that and 7 seconds until Karl made a little mistake at Parabolica (I think) and the pressure was off then as the lead jumped to 15 seconds. I eased off for the last laps, taking no chances and crossed the line about 8 seconds ahead of Karl in second.
Been a long season for Team Lotus and I think that's our first one-two this season, something we got used to in the previous seasons. Hopefully we can put in a strong last leg of this season before we move on to the 72D.
Well done everyone on taking up the challenge of this car. Good to see Neale and Mikey join up with us and hopefully will stick around for the next season too.

I'll try to get the results and standings updated over the next couple of days. Been very difficult to do so this past month with very little time for personal stuff at work which is where I've always done the forum updates in the past.

The races are always more fun when everyone has at least one incident. I propose we add that to the rules....LOL
