Woke up too early today, to make it such a long day Next week Joeri.. we only race fortnightly in most of our series. Never mind if it'as the same next week you can join me in the race of the driving dead then I am going to be racing half asleep for a while I think

Already thought so, but the topic says today, therefore was confused. Next week my girlfriend works the nightshift and as I am still home bound for work, I will just start a bit later. Normally wake up around 6:00, but will shift the clock a bit, to wake up at 9:00 Sign me up as guest, these cars are great fun to drive Joeri / joeriRSD / #33 car (don't know the name)

Anyone been getting in any practice for this one yet? I never find it easy to get on pace here with those damn long straights taking up such a huge chunk of the circuit. I tend to be much better at the more technical circuits where you are constantly searching for grip through the corners. This one could well have me asleep at the wheel more often than Zolder with so little to do for much of it lol

Karl / XRFniblips / Lotus #1 In. I've had some running. This car is quick and agile here. Should be a fun one if people are on the same pace.

This one could well have me asleep at the wheel more often than Zolder with so little to do for much of it lol I’ve done 2 laps and 20 times the Mulsanne straight to test my top speed and adjust gearing on tuning. Best time of those 2 laps was 4:05, but I think it can go down to 3:59 - 4:02 (just a guess based on my errors in that lap).

I'm around the 4:00-4:02 minute mark myself. I can get sub 4 minute as the fuel loads lessens but I think i'm a bit of the pace tbh. I've never been great at these circuits with several huge straights but I really enjoy the final third of the lap with some challenging corners.
It should be fun here but I think how close we all are depends on whether we can stay in the drafts as that makes such a difference here.

Maybe a stupid question but are we driving the vintage circuit or regular circuit with 2 chicanes on the straight.
Picture of Tylers tweet shows the regular, but as we are driving vintage series, I have doubts 😂
