yea reset was on last time and will be on this time as well, usualy if you reset it incurs a drive through penalty but as this track has no pit box as such resets are on without penalty.

no praccy here yet.. this weekends job...should be fun!

haha... well, I feel much better now. Me and wildboy have been practising alot, rb4 is a ripper round here... I cant keep up. Should be good race besides tyres... Those who can save their tyres will be in it for the win I believe ;)

just did some laps tonight....yea tyres are a biggie, reverse is more fun i think, but got to really watch those walls!

need to smooth out my driving a bit more, havnt got a rythym yet. interesting that rb4 is quicker, is it the drive through/out of corners?

hmm not sure exactly maybe it just appears that rb4 is faster only comparing against one of each car, not that im saying Chris is slow in the xrt we all saw how quick he was in the last round. Id say it has a fair bit to do with getting the drive outta the tighter corners and up the hill but doing it consistently without destroying the front right tyre in the normal direction will defiantly be key. Reverse is a different matter, i just cannot get a good rhythm and do fast consecutive laps without shredding tyres, the most ive gotten out of a set is 13 laps before the car just refuses to turn

Yeah, I think your right, the rb4 is quicker because there is a small couple of tight corners, and the drive from the rb4 really beats the xrt

yea it doesn have good drive out, but it does shred tyres, you have to get drive out of corners on later and later otherwise it just tourqe steers.
