Just to let you know, you can shortcut the track going into the funny chicane at the bottom of the hill by staying to the right of the bollard on the second part of the chicane (just to the left of the best jump in AC).

Yes, I can confirm. I went long there racing Phil and I could just keep going straight from 4a to 4b and go on.

Im fairly sure people can ensure they gain no advantage when they miss the chicane, its not like we need to be given a penalty simply to avoid wanting to cheat.

Yeah, we can do like in real life (should be): if you cut during a battle and it is not because the other left you no space and no choice, then let the other pass on the subsequent straight; otherwise, just go ahead.

General rule of fair racing is to not look for or accept unfair advantages I think, I had some races with Cherno last nite and we both let each other last after messing this up. There was no need tk discuss this before or even after as we just knew thats what shoukd be done even in a oractice race of no meaning. Yes you could stuff the entry then floor it and get a huge advantage. Everyone knows thats clearly an unfair advantage so its a basic choice to cheat or not to cheat. You would assume all in the league would always choose not to cheat in such a situation.

Racing here will be interesting as that really is a silly chicane maybe the 370 will be best over it as its the softest ride of this group and there is a big advantage in carrying speed through that section while still not cutting the chicane.

You still have to be reasonably careful in the 370 as well on those kerbs. They can really unsettle the car. Best to stay off them.

Skyline seems to be ok over them. Have to be a bit careful as the left hand kerb can throw you right if you hit it a little wrong. Mind you I'm not doing 1:12's though..... ;)
