Looking forward to this one. Great circuit but very difficult to stay clean around here with those walls so close all around. That nasty bump halfway down the start/finish straight caused me no end of problems in practice last year but in my first practice last night it didn't seem to have the same effect. Still a big bump but hasn't spun me out so far. 1:10.3 is the best lap so far after 10 laps which is about 1.2 seconds off my best in race conditions last season. A long way off Time Trial mode though.
Anybody else had any track time here yet?

No track time yet, what do you guys do about T1? All the way to the wall on entry or to the pit exit line, like in real life?

As Pete said Daz, we try to keep things as realistic as possible and to that end we have the Pit Exit penalty option activated on the race day, as you can imagine , any pit lane shunt with a car at full racing speed would be quite an off

I’m running high 9’s to mid 10’s but there’s plenty left in the car, got some holiday this week so I’ll get some practice in in the lead up to the race

Managed another great session tonight and found the time I was missing last night. Got my race trim time down into the mid 1:08's with a best of 1:08.334 with traffic on the final few laps of the session stopping me getting into the 1:07's. Around 1:07.8 looking possible from that. Just need to do some fuel, tyre deg and primary compound testing next. Love this track. Enjoyed some good dicing wth the AI throughout the session.

Hey guys I was referred to you by Karl AKA: niblips interested in getting in with you guys but I'm not sure how to sign up and if you have any slots available for the Indy League... I'm in Oregon USA so my time I think would be like one in the afternoons I can make most of those. Hope it works out and we can race together that would be a blast I haven't got in the 108 but I can do 109s I probably could I try to race clean that's my main concern...thanks Phil

Might have to do this race on the Blacks, the Reds still make my wheel shake before the end of the stint.

I'm in the 1:10s on Primes. I haven't run reds yet but I think I need to get better at the circuit first.

I'm in the 1:10s on Primes. I haven't run reds yet but I think I need to get better at the circuit first. I always run first on the reds and then once i've settled on pace and consistency I bolt on the blacks to test for pressures, temps and how the grip compares to the reds. I've only run a handful of laps on them up to now but so far i'm finding they are roughly 7/tenths off the reds in lap time.

Guys I’m a maybe at best on this. Very busy weekend ahead of me so I’m not sure that I can carve out the time. I haven’t been in game for a few weeks now so I’m not prepared for the race, though I don’t think it’d take much. If all goes well I’ll manage some practice tonight, get up early tomorrow to clear my plate a bit and manage the couple hours needed to do the race mid day. If I’m not online and ready you’ll know I didn’t pull it off.....
