Server is up
I am happy to change this round to the new highlands park track if it will be more fun and maybe safer as longford has a hole here and there I think

Do pit stops work OK at this track? I don't think I've ever tried to pit, but the pit boxes are a bit...wonky?

Then why not use the new track from assetto  and do 8 laps of Highlands long, or 10 laps or so of the other version of it.

I have been thinking, I know, don't be surprised :0,  but would the short version be easier to learn for Thursday, I have not driven any yet so not sure if they take much learning

I can test both this afternoon Phil and get back to you, being a slow learner I should be a good judge of which is best.

Would also be good if only minimum ballast is needed, I think in trying to be fair you have made a sacrifice in your enjoyment of this series, by ballast allocations to yourself.

The long version isn't hard to learn, but a lap is 4 min+, which might be a bit long. Maybe an intermediate layout would be better.

I do not think the F40 would manage the long version, it would go flying into the hedges at the long straight bumps  ;D

I have done some laps on the intermediate version, 8km long, lap times will be about 2.35 to to 2.40 and I think perfect for all cars with only small ballast to even things up. I also drove the F40 on street tyres , I think this will be a good track to finish on and may even change some peoples minds about the F40  ;D
