Nice to finally see the Ford actually have a decent run tonight, on a track with low tyre wear. About time after the Ferrari has smashed everyone this season.
 
Just like last week my race was over as soon as it began. Took a lag shunt at the start giving full front damage. I think a new room should have been made the race shouldn't have been started with multiple people complaining about the lag.

So then half way round the first lap racecar pushes me off into the gravel. Was happy with the recovery drive to third though, probably didn't have the long run pace to beat the cobras anyway, just as usual.

I think my championship challenge is over.

I agree, we should've probably also made a new room after 2 lag wrecks on the pace lap.
 
Didn't do a single race-costing mistake in this race, so what it took to knock me off the podium was a colossal 🤬-up by another driver, of course...

🤬 this race.

I did make one...............again.
 
This is first weekend this season the Ford has actually been fast...

Sounding more like "my car isn't fastest for one week, let's complain".

Yup, this is ToCA now. It's not fun anymore. I could've raced today and probably would've won either class but just didn't give enough of a 🤬 to.

Rofl wasn't really near the pace at Eiger either. I'm not surprised he was that far off.

I was faster than Furi at Eiger by .2 seconds comparing fastest race laps, here I was 1 second slower on average.

I was slower than everyone by over a second at Eiger when not being rammed.

Hmmm... so you were faster at a handling track yet slower at a power track. In a car that is less powerful but lighter. Now that one's really racking my brain.

Exactly, so why should the Ferrari then lose a further 10hp when it would be off the pace anyway?

By that logic the Ford should have 525hp from before Bathurst.

Because Monza is one track, there are others on the calendar.
 
Ford ha struggled badly at the tracks more demanding on tyres. Even Jammys PM results show Ford at a power track has worse tyres than anyone else.

Bottom line is some people here have turned into CORE-style complainers who think that you need a scientific degree in every calculation to work it out.

Someone here forgot this is for fun.

I have won around HSR and Monza, 2 power tracks so does the Jag need a power reduction?

Answer is no because I have struggled at the handling tracks.

I've said it in our PMs, the Jag would be faster if it were possible to make it faster.
 
By the way. We are 12 races through 15. 25 hours done roughly, and 7 and a half remain in three events. It's been a crazy season.

And tomorrow i'm sending invites for the race :)
 
Ha ha ha bet I sent ripples across the WSC pond after getting that provisional pole position in GTO
