Nope, most of us went with an NSX. The highest I got was 186 which was lower than expected given I was drafting and could get 185 by myself :lol:

Edit: can I get clarification about the first post please? It says 'should be 100pp away or provide very different splits'. What constitutes enough of a difference if I go with the split for next week?

hmmm.

Well as long as the total PP is 100 away then half of the split can have some overlap. Not sure we need a hard and fast rule. But if one week is 2000 no split then the next week could be 1900 with a split of say 1050/850 but I would not want to see a 1900 split of 1000/900 as that would mean running the same cars.
 
Since my original choice has been destroyed by joby's rules :P ....I'll go with no split and 1580PP. So average of 395, low of 375 and high of 415.
 
Ah I missed out, my b. How did Sarthe go ? Did anyone break 200mph down the straight ?

We waited for ya. But there was no blood on the track.

Joe jumped out to a big lead then spun out on the second lap. Tez and I then battled for the win.

@88GTA Next week sounds good to me. I don't even have a lineup made for tonight. So I'm good for some practice tonight if anyone wants to.
 
Shall we just postpone tonight until next Thurs then ? That's my suggestion, as I like the car groupings so far. Give everyone some more time to test/buy/grind, etc.
 
I Updated the race details. Also here are the new track groupings. I will update post one with them tomorrow
