Not to mention being cautious. Once again Ineed to thank Stephen fur the reminder of bonnet view, I hadn't even thought to look for the key in these cars. (Assetto I have been emmursed using the dash view)Over drive must of the night and squandered my lack of ballast Next week!Finding it a little easier on the hands with lighter steering FFB but need to get a balance where I still have some feel. ..Thanks for the races all. Pleased the results didn't show I cause to much trouble. « Last Edit: February 12, 2014, 08:15:43 AM by Flattop » Logged "I refuse to be what you call normal."

Really enjoyed last nite, had some great runs down the back and up the front of the field.Finally started finding a nice consistent groove in race 3 trying to hunt down Liam with his light weight! I'm sure I'll have taken a fair hit of ballast due to it.Missing XGN NKP to much! Might see you next week.... but the way things have been... Probably not!

Sorry Wally for the hard hit up the rear in race 3, think I just braked a bit too late there. I would have still made thecorner without You there, but should have been a bit more cautious. I realise there is no benefit in readressing here, but I still feel wrong just continuing after smacking someone off.Can't believe I selected the F1800 in the Poll, these cars are great fun to drive, glad You made the final correct choice there Wally.

Glen (again) & Liam in race 2 (first half), some good back and forth until 'the seas parted'. Liam (again) & Tim in race 3, a fantastic couple of opening laps. Now I have to brush up on my Flemish....

Best to just carry on and enjoy your race and let the points do the redressing. We all have to be careful to allow enough braking distance with these weak brakes when the car in front is loaded up with ballast and has to brake even earlier.I agree - these cars are a heap of fun once you get the front/rear balance right and they can slide beautifully through corners.
