Not easy to get ya head round i have faith though you are a Gedi after all.:sly:

Might have to clear my head before I attempt it.

We still going with 10 jb points wise?
 
Part of me is tempted to switch to the Mazer, but the stubborn person in me wants to tame the wild cat!

I run the Maserati, and if you still dont like the Jag you can join up with me :)

MY S3 SUGGESTION[/B

Come the 13th i dont see things being any better in my humble opinion lag black screens weird frame rate stuff (really yuk:yuck:) All increase the bigger the room (if you dont agree would have been handy for you to turn up at the test night!:grumpy:)
So i propose 2 divisions of 8/10 (Carb dont panic if quiet we can join up:)) we qualify during the week (whoops poll:dunce:) we will note the times and log them. If you qualify for division 1 you get 2 points extra for race 1 and 4 points extra for race 2 in total 6 bonus points(may be a lttle low edit is will also discuss 10 bonus points perhaps) an incentive to qualify as fast as possible 2 hot laps rather than 1 may be a fairer way to go can discuss further.I would also be inclined to qualify under sprint conditions tyre wear off so you get an even shot at 2 hot laps.
There will be no need for 2 division tables everything can be updated in one as one week you may qualify for div1 the following week div2 this keeps the competition nice and mixed each week rather than racing the same guys week in week out.💡
We do a 1 lap "race" parade lap (kings idea) in order of Q then a false start grid for the sprint race.
Race 2 We reverse the grid as normal add a lap a do the rolling start or alternatively we just stick to the false start grid system.

My suggestions alone clear as mud.:crazy:

Are people happy with this concept?

Yeah Im happy to be a host if Im ever in Div 2 :)

And is Jhodas on now? I might want to spy to see how well he is doing....... :sly:
 
How are you guys going to divide drivers into these divisions then?

I think I want the same with my big rivals, neljack and akmuq, who need to learn not to get under my skin all the time. :D
 
It will be 2 divisions with a twist Carb based on midweek Q results all will be revealed soon. I think Andy is coming round to the idea all be it slowly.:lol:

I really like it mate :lol: At first its a bit like "ok....odd" But it should make the drivers fight for the extra points

Really clever well done to whoever thought that up 👍
 
If qualification is wednesdays I can;t do it...

Furi long as you grab a suitable witness or 2 you can do qualification in the week gap between races it dont matter 10/15 minutes is all the time you need set aside.:)

Andy cheers its taken a while we like being a little different here mate.👍
 
I've decided on Camaro, not quite sure if it will be quick enough round sarthe now it's running less bhp but fancied a change from M3.

Fuji on RH 1:41.8xx so far.

Now i know why i don't like Fuji, i'm only 0.6 quicker on RS. :scared:
 
Right so I'm going to go ahead with it all and update tmw morning.
Shouldn't we have a host watching ppls Q laps? I don't mind stepping in for 15mins.

I got into 1.39's on RS's stu, we should compare setups maybe.

No maybe's I need help. Pm me your setup if thats ok. Think it's more than setup, there's a couple of corners i can't get a good line through. Tried putting the driving line on for a few laps and still don't feel good with my lines. :dopey: Fuji has just never been a good track for me.
 
I will miss Tokyo, but other than should be fine for all the events. 👍

Idealy i think yes were both flexible just give one of us a shout.👍

Furi look forward to it.;)

Details up tomorrow.
 
As I mentioned ealier JB, I thought I'd try the Lexus...

1.9 seconds faster than my best M3 time at my preferred test track

Clearly a fast car, but I hear it has tyre-wear issues so I need to look at that

I thought the extra litre might be good 👍

Oh crap dont tell me we got another car that needs pegging back.:grumpy:
 
Lexus is quick in the straight stuff but sucks in cornering :lol:

Hope ya right mate i was busy adjusting to the gearbox tonight didnt do it total justice, still say the Lex will die a death come the feature race will see i spose.:nervous:
 
Good session last night, I think I got one clean lap of Fuji in... god I'm rusty.
So it's on record:

Team: SimTek.
Drivers: Strawman Andy & Jhodas
Car: Maserati Granturismo.
Colourscheme: Green (Red Wheels)
Hilarity factor: High.
Chance of Smoke: Very high.
