Nice 1 think i'll be there making the numbers up, looking at those 1.29 lap times im gonna be 3/4 seconds off the pace.:grumpy:
 
I got bad news guys...i wont be able to make the first 2 rounds of the season. There is a SLIM chance that its possible i can make it, but that will be known at the last minute, maybe a day before the race. Will keep everyone informed.

Nooooo big shame.:grumpy:👎:ouch:
 
I see the other V8 series is finding the Lexus is destroying the field we may have to implement a weight penalty(hope not) for the IS will see how Monza pans out.:yuck:

Well done some testing with the IS and cant see the problem yes its a good package but not significantly quicker than the others mid/low 148's i was pulling and that gear box takes some work so ignore my pessimism its unfounded at this stage.👍

Too early to say the least. As the season moves along, one could tell if the Lexus is really more powerfull. But than again, one has to look at the driver as well. Say MrMulsanne is ripping the field apart with his Lexus, which i doubt he will, than just give him another car and see how he performs. Simple as. Its an example though, but you catch my drift. Only time will tell though.

Like i say testing today didnt cause any worries really, perhaps the other series simply have 1 or 2 really good drivers who happen to be in the Lexus not overly concerned. Damm shame your gonna miss the start of the season Moeom you best throw a sicky!!!:sly:

Here's the lowdown. My rostered schedule is from 11:59pm until 8:00am. So in BST Time, that is from 9pm until 5am. Seeing how the racing starts at 8pm, i might even be able to make the Sprint Race. But i can always find a way to go late. They dont give a ****. haha

He may be fast but his tyres will let him down! as i keep saying.

I know that mate! but him going like he does around the track...his tyres dont last!!

Like i say its not a concern was reading to much into the US series my fault.:crazy:

In case you hadn't noticed, I ruin tyres. And a quick car at Monza may suck at say Monaco. Set-up is key.

That too playes a big role. Its the reason i said that for the moment, one can't read too much into a series until the season is over. And to add on top of that, one can't judge a car by itself, one has to look at the driver as well.

In manual..yes but furi said he uses auto.I think i would aswell if i had 8 gears to use.
