:lol: Expect me for Laguna or Tsukuba, it was fun when I was in. 👍

Balance wise the car is a little horror, but I know how I can sort that...

There's no way you can sort it. Its in its dna to be that twisty. Fortunately I found a setup which makes it quick but you need to drive on the edge - did say alfa would be hard to drive
 
Im very dissapointed with both my races tonight,lack of practice this week i will be back racing for decent pts at round 3.

I managed an understeering troll of a Lexus, when I was a far worse driver. Nothing wrong with a challenge.

Went right off race 2 turned into a tyre conservation test hard to find a balance for me spent 95% of the time watching tyres flashing. Didnt help that i sucked mind you concentration went to pot!.:ouch:

And Norman done me!!:nervous:

Just out of interest 24 laps for race 2 will mean it will last longer than 45 minutes?

Just checking 👍
 
I just wondered - might be a 2 stopper than, considering its the Nurb. Dont know time yet - but I'd be looking at 2 stops

I dont know whats for the best for me last nights feature race felt more like a tyre conservation test than a race i might be wrong?:dunce: Trying to find a balance is tricky for the record 24 laps will be a 2 stop for the ISF.:nervous:

Its about tyre management for race 2. You have lots of choices - go fast but wear tyres out meaning a slower and longer 2nd bit. I think its good:tup:
but maybe 24 laps is a bit long? Im up for it - but I thought the races were going to be around 40-50 minutes?

Ok maybe its best to leave it to toad leader to decide im probably not the best person to decide considering my beast struggles on tyres. What toad thinks is fine by me.👍
 
The laps are the laps.
if a lap count has been set then thats what we will do,weither its 40 mins or 1hr 40m.

Andy a lap is around 2mins 2x24 laps= 50-55 mins not much diff.
 
Just out of interest was 45 minutes for race 2 decided somewhere if so i apologise??:dunce: We used to run 30 + lap races back in the day fairdoos was a bit long then but anything under an hour i figured was ok considering we only meet up once a week.:nervous:
