1.54.654 didn't use any run off in the last sector

Must of just been the other sectors you cut all the corners then.

karsten was racing with me when i did it so no. Why are you so hostile? Instead of criticising me practice.

I watched you putting constant 55's in earlier and you were cutting all the chicanes, at least 4 wheels over the white line on 2 or more occasions. On the odd laps you did use the track correctly you hit mid 56's.

I also watched the replay of Mondays race and some of your racing and the things you did were pretty bad, I'm no saint and occasional moss corners but I'd be embarrassed If i drove like you were.

i'm now doing 55.1 - 55.4 not using the last sectors run off because you like complaining what else do you want?
 
On the last lap of Mondays race why did you completely fail to even attempt some corners, instead just straight lined all of them? I'm not even talking just cutting a curb, it was like 5 car widths off the track.

drive silverstone in the Garaiya at 5pm on tyres that were on 1 and 0. Never criticize someone if you've never experienced yourself. I even let off the gas a considerable amount, i tried to make the corner if you watch it.

Everybody else in the race managed there tyres or pitted enough so that situation doesn't happen. It was your own fault for bad race management and in my eyes you cheated to keep your place.

ok karsten put me down a place or give me a time penalty to keep this person quite for the rest of the week
 
Would someone a bit more experienced in enduros, mind giving me some tips on tyre, fuel and pit strategy. In particular what are the best tyres to use in a race like this, I'm assuming softs or mediums?

Hi Kalem, is seems on this track soft tyres last at least 15 laps with good grip , and my guess is that everyone's fuel will only last 20 laps , so it would make sense to run the 1st stint as long as you can on softs keeping a good time Then put and put required fuel in for 15 laps and new soft tyres then same again so 3 stops of 15 Laos each looks best maybe running longer in the 1st stint as the tyre bug will penalise people after 1st pit stop , but try avoid pitting when everyone else is as I've heard cars can bump into each other in pits on auto drive , and most people will probably pitting same sort of laps .
 
Hi Filo and Flank , come on guys , dont get bad feelings here , we are here to enjoy this , not get bad feelings.
Flank , i have to say that i am struggling at Monza , and cant get below 1.57 and for the life of me cant see how people can go 1.55 , however i ran silverstone and could not see how peopl ran 2 seconds faster than me when i felt i was on the edge, but but they can and they do and i have watched them , and yes from time to time they put all 4 wheels outside of the legal area, but its such a fine line between legal and illegal , even for me at Monza on a 1.57 , when you arrive at these corners at such high speed , its hard to be accurate with your line every time , and i have to say that the Garaiya is a real handful if over half full with fuel.
I try running around at 1.57 and you dont have to do too much wrong to make the perfect line into an illegal line through the chicanes.
I dont think the guys that are running 1.55 are doing it deliberately at all, i think they are pushing the limits and not getting it right all he time, but most of the time they are , which is annoying as when i dont get it right i end up in the gravel or spinning .
I do think that you are being hard on Filo, and you just have to accept that some people get to grips with some tracks more than others . i think you can say that i am stuggling here at Monza a lot , and it makes me think how can they do that time, and for me , especially for me its hard as he has the same car , so it embarrasing as well lol.
Dont forget that the track does include the kerbs , and there quite wide kerbs at the chicanes , giving a good time advantage if you get it right .
On the 3rd chicane there is more chance for cutting the corner and running illegal , but i try so hard not to do it but i have turned in a fraction too early and cut throgh the apex there a fewe times without meaning to , that also then can out you high on the green kerb on the middle part of the corner , but in all that i would not be gaining time , more like going into panic mode.
anyway Flank, its good to say your piece mate, but you dont have to do it in a personal and aggressive way mate , i am sure Filo does not desrve that.

Untrue, i did lose from 5th to seventh on 40th lap, and i totally couldn't take one of the last corners. You can ask ekke and logic. I did lose like 6 seconds in that.
 
I'm in 56s as fast lap risking life on all corners. So little hope for the race.

Concerning filo i saw him pull ot low 55s on 100% clean laps. And he did a couple 54s too, i was too distant by then to check but i do not think he cutted around.

After all It is a Garaya track.
 
today was my first time driving the GT300 today and i got down to 1.57's really quick, within 15 minutes, so I can see that it is definitely possible for a high 54 with a flawless lap.

And @Stephen Vann , thanks for coming to practice today, sorry for driving like a noob, first time in the car and had no idea on braking points


EDIT: DOWN TO CONSISTENT HIGH 1.56'S NOW

Well i am in a Garaya and its certainly not for me LOL , until the fuel has run down about 30 litres it just wants to spin, i have no idea how Filo does it , its making me cross LOL we were running together for a while in practice yesterday and he is so quick, i am beginning to thing something is wrong with my car, but its just me and thats tough for me ?
 
i remember in my pre-season test that the garaya was the fastest at all Hp ranges i tested so no surprise for me. I wonder how will lexus perform.

Gosh thanks Kasrten, you make me feel even slower lol
 
oh don't say that, i'm feeling so down and demotivated lately; in all serie i'm in i'm getting uber beaten by my teammate and i'm unable to bring home any decent results :P

home things will improve this week. BTW on monday i'll have a load of issues during the day with workers caming to start working on my water boiler how it is called in english lol

so i'll probably be on track with little training, no dinner and in the cold :P Sounds sweet doesn't it? :P

In my hands the same as everybody else it seems (56-57), Skeg will be a better prediction on how the Lexus will perform but it's not a track suited to the car due to lack of straight line speed.

Hi Kalem,
i am afraid you dont get an option on what car you run at this late stage, Karsten has only a few places available with specific cars tha would have to be used.

Well he said to test all the cars as their may be multiple spots available with several different cars. I'm not expecting to get the exact car I want, I will wait and see

You sure your running the Lexus/BRZ at the right spec? 1.8 is a massive gap
