Simone there is a Porsche season pass which gives all 3 a little cheaper and it also auto downloads each pack as it gets released. PP3 is out later this month only pp1 and pp2 have been released so far.

Also good to hear its been raining, must be pretty tough repying so much on the weather. You should move to Melbourne as we get all seasons most days so whatever weather you want you will get at some point most days.  ;D

To late for Simone, but don't forget you can purchase all 3 together for less . .

What a race.

Race 1- I did a faster lap in prac than in qual by a second, as usual.. 2nd tuesday in a row that's happened to me.  I got a good start and kept up for a while, managed to swap positions with some of the ferraris battling in front of me and then caught up to Seanus in his vette. Couldn't get past him down the straight but managed to get right up alongside in the corners and bump some panels and get through as he struggled with throttle out of a few corners.

Race 2- adjusted the rear toe and that helped my cornering and surprisingly my tyres lasted longer.  I did a PB of 201.079 which is slow compared to most of you but I was happy with that for a joystick that atm is not centering and the car wants to drive left slightly...  I was behind ley ying lo, I was 10th.. but got too close and went off trying to avoid hitting him. Ended up last and got faster and faster to my surprise and managed to catch him and pass him to make up for my mistake.

Was a bit of fun tonight even though its a smaller then usual turnout but thats kind of expected in fun runs and this time of year.

Race 1 was fun as I knew Phil was quick in the 919, I tried to stay ahead and save as much battery as possible to defend against all his kers inspired attacks. This worked well and in the end I went to charge mode with manual kers to use as much energy as needed in all the key areas that he could have attacked. We stayed pretty close all race and it seemed I had overall more luck in the traffic then he did. This let me get a bit more of a gap and save more energy for the end of the race to defend any attacks he may have thrown at me.

Race 2 I went for the GT cars, I was going to get the BMW but half way through qualy I saw there werent any corvettes. In practice I was quicker in that so I decided to not set a qualifying time and try my luck from the back in the c7. Lap 1 I was fairly cautious but still managed to get into the lead pack. This was a bit of fun even if it felt like going for a casual Sunday drive after the 919, I had a bit of fun picking off the top 3 1 by one but then Glen had a few sideways issues giving me the lead. I then extended the gap a bit until a few laps to the end I had a brain berp and spun it. This got me close to the pack again and a couple laps later I got rear ended by a proto car but seems all the others had issues too. 3 laps to go I also saw that I was .3 of a lap short on fuel so I spent the last few laps coasting home to the line. I ran out of fuel about 50m from the line but lucky I noticed I was short early enough or I would never have made the line.

How well do you think it would work as a season, compared to the ducktail/911 & DTM classes?

I think it may be more popular as a season, but I would wait until after the toyota and audi lmp1 cars are released. Mostly as gt cars are probably more popular then the dtm cars. The modern lmp cars also offer something fairly different in the racing.

The older cars are also fun to race though but id favour modern mostly as gt2/e cars were close to being the top season in a few polls. This way they can be added to a mixed class season to give us something different.

was a lot of fun, the 919 could be boring just hot lapping, but racing it is awesome with the strategy
