Watch out on this track - there's a black patch on the road surface which is a hole that gives your wheel a big jolt.

That Ferrari looks horrible, so glad we’re not driving that! How big a pothole are we talking about Wally…..? Oh and where is it hiding?

I think it's at turn 6. It's relatively hard to miss. It's a black rectangle in the middle of the track. There's two - the first is solid, but the second is a hole. Give it a go and let me know if it's a show stopper. I think it could be.

Sorry Wally, I've not had a chance to test yet, but was thinking about looking at it tonight, does this patch fill in the pothole?

I would presume so.

That's not an easy track! Touch a curb and you're done for. I cant do more than a lap or two without crashing,

Yep, those curbs are evil!

Our only chance of a win is if those kerbs attack Joe and Brad.....

I doubt it, with so many blind corners I don’t want to use the word ‘guess’ but can’t think of a better one to describe my turn in points for most of this track. I’ve never seen this track before and it’s a real challenge to be consistent…looks like that patch fixed the hole as I hit the black patch several times and there was no issue. The jungle grass off the circuit is an issue as there are some places (most of it) where it’s like quicksand! Tyre wear could be an issue if you push too hard so it’s going to be a real challenging night.

Shows how intense that last race was. Not sure how I kept that pace up but impressive that Brad was doing the same.

That was certainly intense Joe, however my lap times were not as close to each other as yours.....turns out I backed off far too much on that last lap. I'd had a couple of close calls and was fearful of a repeating my race 1 spin if I kept pushing sooooo hard.
