Thursday Nights fun racing / Re: Thursday Fun Run - 10-05-2018« on: May 10, 2018, 11:17:55 AM »Gonna be tough in the Abarth, being around 10% off the pace. Does not bode well for me, I was just staying ahead of Phil with me in the MX5 during a quick run yesterday. Felt like he could pass me at any time he wanted. That Abarth is quick on the straights! 512

Was a good race up to the point of disconnect with 7 laps to go
Up to that point I planned on finishing a one stopper softs then hards which would have been touch and go on tire life, poor Phil was bearing the brunt of tire conservation driving, sorry Phil Overall I'm glad we doing these cars, its hard work but really satisfying. 513

Team Maki will be supplying SNRL Racing Team with cars for the coming season, with the understanding that they should not hold up any of the factory team cars of course

Again, I'm still a bit of a sim racing noob...and I don't have any real racing experience either. For me increasing the rear ARB made the car a lot more stable with better grip out of corners. But yes the car seems very sensitive to setup, more so than many other cars and there are no electronic aids to help. So stealing one of the alien's setup will be a good idea, Bacchulum''s setups are usually good 516

Australian Assetto Corsa League, Tuesday nights / Re: Test run - F1 1975 at Imola« on: May 02, 2018, 01:08:30 PM »but I didn't feel like doing a full race blue flagged There where no blue flags in 1975 as far as I know, so don't actively defend but no need to jump out of the leaders way 519

Enjoyed the race, not quite as lonely as the Ferrari test. And it certainly paid to be accurate and deliberate with the gear changes, no flat shifting!
A slight touch to Kcender (sorry) on the first lap left me some way behind the pack struggling to catch up, the soft tires was definitely a help on full fuel. Pitted early hoping for an under-cut which did not eventuate. But spend 17 laps chasing Wally, slowly reeling him in by 0.2s per lap just hoping his soft tires would fail before the hard tires I chose during the pit stop. But just as I finally got by Wally I picked the wrong side of a spinning car (Keith? ) to give the spot back to him. Fun race 520

The car is fairly easy to control as long as one remember to brake early enough, drum brakes and marie biscuit wheels makes for slow retardation.It was part of a poll once, if I remember correctly. Except for the part where trees jumped in front of the car, not so flowing then! 521

From memory we tested the cars on quite a difficult mod track which may have scared people away from the car? 522

Maybe we should use the Lotus 25 for Tuesday season? 523

Us lesser drivers would never have a chance of winning a sheep-station prized Tuesday season but with Flattops Thursdays we all have a chance of competing for a championship 524

Forgot to ask, who was Daniel S? He looked like having the pace to keep Kcender honest!
