Yanno, anybody from my neck of the woods would associate that with New Zealand.

We do share a statistic (ish) with New Zealand. There are more sheep in the two countries, than people.
Because we don't like sharing.
This is my sheep.
Get your own.

I must confess to squeezing somebody off the track just because their PSN was TheBrexitParty. Boris' face in my mirrors might trigger similar
Intentional punting? Tut tut, Max. That's not very sporting of you.
I wholeheartedly support your behaviour.

If you were driving GT3, I would veto that decision. As you're driving Group C, I'll only have to see it as it passes me at mach 3
That doesn't look like a sheep's shadow there to me............

I'll try and join the end of the practice session mate, depends how long it goes on for, as I want to catch the GP from Mexico.....I need to practice, haven't done a proper lap yet still!!

Practice session moved to the same time as the race. Less interference with the GP, for those who are watching it.

If there's a decent turn out tonight, we'll do a short ten lap sprint. Feel free to try different cars if you want. But, I'll need your choice confirmed by tomorrow. Just so I can make a list of the power/weight of chosen cars for the pre quali check.

Ok, I had a tough day yesterday, but... omg 1:50-52 laps? 
Started with 48-49 laps but after the 7-8th lap my brain just gave up the fight. I did 11 laps on medium tires, the left ones started to transform the car into a Understeer GR.3 car...
@Bivittavus88 you were on softs all along?

I was. In the 'Vette, or 911, I can make the softs last the same 15 laps as a tank of fuel.
Porsche isn't quite as aggressive on the tyres, though (less weight, and less power) so the drop off in lap times isn't quite as severe.

@Bivittavus88 and everyone, really sorry but it looks like I'll have to give the race on Sunday a miss...... It appear real life is going to get in the way, and I'll be out of the house for most of the day with the boss (the wife)...... Really sorry again! 
🤬
I hope someone streams the race, that was I can see what happens. Good luck to all of you on Sunday.

No worries, mate. She who must be obeyed, must be obeyed, after all.

hey @Bivittavus88 - apologies, for some reason i wasn't getting notifications when posts were being made to this thread so i've missed those warm up / practice sessions (and the sheep shenanigans). Plan was, last night.. get home from football around 9.45pm, cup of tea, a few biscuits, shorts and t-shirt on then get a custom race set up to see how i go... but oh no no no, nothing is that easy! Instead I was up till 12:30am trying to get our wi-fi printer to work so my son could print off his CV and job application forms for an interview he's got this morning.. the joy!!
Eventually managed to get on board and put a few laps in and it was noticeable that the fastest laps kicked in around lap 7 or 8 - tyre wear was slight but the fuel had emptied and the car was most solid. Really enjoyed it. I'll maybe be able to bring the better laps into play a bit earlier with more practice.
It also dawned on me that i need to learn the track... BIG STYLE! I've never raced there before and I was starting to enjoy it and get in a flow - the only other glaring schoolboy error was that I'd need to learn the track with no cones!! If I was relying on them for guidance, then the chances are that they'll be all over the grass the longer the race goes on and I'd be left at Puntsville Station when the train was long gone - much to the annoyance of everyone else in the race no doubt.
Really looking forward to this now and hopefully be able to jump back on tonight to get some more laps in - the dailies aren't doing anything for me this week so ya know... LMP1 all the way

@Qyn[/USER] with Mistah having to pull out, do you want to run the other TS050?
No worries, mate. I'll be out of practice by Thursday (off to London for a few days) night. So, I'll be running tests most of Friday, without cones, because I too need to learn not to rely on them.

All other settings are fixed/locked. I'm making this (and an upcoming series) as casual as I can.

That confused the hell out of me, the other day. Signed in, saw Resident_Knievel, and was sat there like "Who the hell is this?!"
Awesome. I'll add you to the list.
@Pigems, I'll give you a shout if we have any one else pull out. Assuming the Miata race is cancelled, of course.

Sounds good man!! It looks like it may be, we only had 8 last race and he said he will cancel if we don’t get 10 guys.
