Now just have to figure out how to double that and go heaps faster...

But nobody else is allowed to swap cars. « Last Edit: March 04, 2016, 05:49:32 PM by rooshooter » Logged social media is the tobacco of this century gawaterman RestrictedRacing Sr. Member Posts: 407 Karma: 17 Re: Round 2? - Date: March 10th Interlargos « Reply #6 on: March 04, 2016, 06:24:10 PM » Looking at the practise lap times at Longford it would be pretty hard to pick the slow cars from the fast cars, cos the times didn't vary much from car to car. The Sierra was quickest but that was a Sierra track.Driver Vehicle Time Gapslideways ford_sierra_cosworth_rs500_dtm 02:27.6540 -XGN-Phil.8 bmw_m3_e30_dtm 02:27.8580 0.204humper ks_mercedes_190_evo2 02:28.1920 0.538-XGN-Phil.8 bmw_m3_e30_dtm 02:28.2860 0.632slideways ford_sierra_cosworth_rs500_dtm 02:28.6020 0.948-XGN-Phil.8 bmw_m3_e30_dtm 02:28.8800 1.226lenore9 ford_sierra_cosworth_rs500_dtm 02:28.9110 1.257Also, are we going to make rolling starts the norm, if the Sierra's get on the front row every time we are going to get some chaotic starts. But then again that gives them a big advantage.Sorry Bruce « Last Edit: March 04, 2016, 07:02:55 PM by gawaterman » Logged slideways Sr. Member Posts: 371 Karma: 3 Re: Round 2? - Date: March 10th Interlargos « Reply #7 on: March 04, 2016, 07:14:51 PM » Definitely hats off to the non sierra drivers, I couldn't get those times out of either of those other cars.

Just takes a bit of practice.
