The in game race start time has been adjusted and weather added to.. should have been 13:00 not 15:00 and there is some cloud cover in the middle of the race. Cheers for the heads-up Sean. Thanks for the update. Clear for Qualifying? Yes I think that was the weather for that so we'll leave that as is.

Anyone here going to be on tonight around 830, 9 ish Eastern standard time? I know it's late for you guys over in the UK but it would be cool to get some runs in with some of you guys beforehand. I managed to get the day off saturday, so no sprinting home like a mad lad after work to make it this week 😂
I've managed to get my car turning in a bit better in the slow stuff, but I feel like it really shines in the first two sectors. Could use some work on consistency through the hairpins though, that's for sure. It'd be nice to have someone to bounce ideas off of, I've always struggled with tuning in this game. Asking the engineer helps, but I feel like they're better for more general fixes, less so for fine tuning.

I would love to but I'll be at work for another 3 hours... Is tempting to just leave though, been quiet enough here today!

Just finished a full length test, here’s a clip of last couple of laps Nice one Micko 👍 I haven't had a full race so far but have managed to get in some practice over this week. Struggling with consistency and getting in a long run of clean laps still though. Are you running the soft tyres throughout? That's still my plan at the moment although the hards do keep a more stable temperature from the short test I've done on them so far. How are you keeping with all this going on?

The reserves for this race have now been moved onto the starting grid and we are at full capacity for this race.
Any further sign-ups will be added to the reserves list and can take a place on the grid if
there are any no-shows on Saturday night.

Hi Peter, I ran this test on Hard Tyres and once they are warmed up work quite well but still have to be careful on the rumble strips as they will throw you off very quickly 😒 Still not convinced which way to go (hard or soft) for night part of the race! I'm fine in 70+ self isolation.......no Golf boooooo. I had my hair cut earlier in the week and said to the Hairdresser.....next time I see you I'll have a ponytail 😂

Very pleasing to have another full grid for this event and I’m looking forward to racing with all our new friends, if you newer guys enjoy this series and how we run our race events then please get involved with the Indycar Championship which will be the next series after the WEC Cheers Dave

I was reading info about the Vintage F1 series, but I cannot join midweeks due to the time (zone). Saturdays are fine to stay awake past midnight, but my alarm goes off at 5:15AM every day. Will check the info about Indycar. Never driven those cars on PC2

I had my hair cut earlier in the week and said to the Hairdresser.....next time I see you I'll have a ponytail 😂 I'm still on the fence about what compound combination i'm going to run too, i'm thinking softs but I remember the winner, Daz, saying something about running Hards for the majority of the race here last year in IndyCar, much to our suprise. Hang in there micko, stay safe! Try not to do too much race driving and porn lmao. There are a crap ton of dumb Americans over here that could easily mess things up worse for everyone. I can't even articulate it, so so dumb lol As an introvert, nothing has changed for me over in the States except that my daughter is home during the day because no school.

Will check the info about Indycar. Never driven those cars on PC2 Seeing as I’m going to have quite a lot of spare time in the next few weeks I’ll run a few test events in the Indycar so people who don’t have much experience in those cars to get some laps under their belts, they’re fast and great fun to drive, we’ve had a lot of great racing in that series

Uh, Pete? You have forgotten to add yourself to the grid signed up for tomorrow.😲 Oh crap!! That's what I get for trying to do too much this week with everything going on with my work doh!! Oh well, I've already said the reserves are on the grid so only fair to stick to that and if anyone doesn't show i'll take a spot then 🙄 Sod's law as i've had several practice sessions this week. Finally think I had decided tonight to go with the hard tyres for a more consistent run. Times are a bit down on what i've seen posted here but was fairly happy with 2:06-08's.

Good luck with the restart boys. I'm gonna call it a day. Maybe one less guy will help.
