Put me down as a maybe again for this, i'm also happy to give up my spot (only for this practice session) for a newer driver that wants in if we're full. Right now I just want to concentrate on Dubai for this Saturday and the GreenHell for next Wednesday before I worry about the following Sat.

Work is swapping duty’s around left right and centre so I’m not 100% sure I will make it. Currently I will be home about 15 mins after practice starts so I may miss the start but I’m still aiming to join you guys.
I’m currently working on a setup and out of interest what sort of lap times are you guys running on this track?

Hi Wayne, just join the party as soon as you’re ready and we’ll get you out on the circuit 🙂 Sam and I did some testing at Texas last week and I was running mid 24’s , what times are you getting? Cheers Dave

Cheers Dave Dam I best get some more laps in. I was getting high 24/low 25s My right hand tires were toasted after 20 laps so some more setup adjustments are definitely needed

I'll be able to make it to this one, thank god. It'll be nice to get some practice on the ovals, I don't think I've ran them at all on this game, let alone in the indycars. Can't wait!

What's the dates and weather going to be set to for this? Are we just going to go off of the real world dates? I'm going to try my hand at the ovals now before work, (that third shift life... Gross) I'll update this in a couple hours with my first impressions
UPDATE: Right... That was interesting! Definitely DIDN'T back it into the wall once... 3 times... Lol
It's hard to calibrate your brain to the speed of these damned open wheel cars. Found a good hotlap/qualifying setup online and tried it, works okay on longer runs but predictably starts to overheat the right sides after about 5-7 laps. I made a couple small adjustments to take some load off the tires which helped that a bit, but now it's overheating the tires after about 12 laps instead, and is slightly loose off the corners. Managed a 30 lap run, times were all over the place between mid 24s and 25s, my best was I think a 24.2 when I got a tow behind an A.I. car down the back. I will definitely need a lot of practice at Texas though, my consistency was terrible, and racelines weren't much better. Will definitely be looking for some tips on saturday!

I didn't mean it as negative towards 3rd shift workers, it's just not for me anymore. Maybe 5 years ago when I was a teenager and making... Oh, let's go with "questionable" life choices I could do it but I prefer to sleep at night now lol. Only have like two a week and it's hopefully gonna be temporary because it's killing my circadian rhythm, and I struggle to keep a normal sleep schedule as is
