Thanks for uploading the lap. That’s a second quicker than me.
I noticed the difference comes from you being able to apply gas much earlier than me. For some reason I get more wheelspin than you.
But yeah, enough off topic

There is a danger, that I will not be able to return home to the race today. We'll see, I'll try

Sorry Sick, due real life changes I won't do it tonight
I'm sorry I couldn't make it last night. I've sent this message to @Sick Cylinder on PS as well but if there is space for me to replace somebody the safest way to communicate this is throught PS messages app as this is the only way that reaches me during work or meetings. This website and straight invites don't.
Taking a look at the lap times I could have been quite competitive here based on the practice I ran tuesday. Can't see who used which car though on this results screen.

Many apologies for the short notice, but I can't race tonight. Perhaps @rj5992 could host, or if not then perhaps @John Wells could host tonight. Normal service will be resumed next week!

Hope all is well Sick. Not the worst race to skip to be honest, I had a practice for tonight's race on Monday after the enjoyable Ginetta race and Oulton really exposes the Lotus' shortcomings – won't be sad to see the back of it!

Great video Rj, imagine if had keep the original track, but with all the safety. Kept it more like Le Mans, but without, the houses and other danger.
What was track settings for Wednesday.

Wow John, those photos look stunning. I especially love the one of the #74 Red Ferrari braking into the chicane.
Race settings were:
5am
5x Time Progression
3 Weather Slots: Clear, Light Cloud, Heavy Cloud
Weather is Sync to race.
The idea was that we would be racing the sunrise with it coming up fully about 5 minutes before the end
The season in our race was Spring if I remember. I'll double check tonight. It's actually important as it appears to affect the sunrise times. In a quick trial I did earlier I think I had it set to Summer and the lighting was perfect: it started with a purple dawn sky and when the sun is fully up you get the light streaming through the trees on the way to the last corner. I think it was changed in the race though due to the 1970 date, meaning that it started with the stars out and ended with the sun just peeking over the horizon, seemingly an in-race hour behind schedule. Still worked out well though I reckon.

Thanks Rj, reminded me of Sick's prototype series, sun rise at Le Mans.
Sick why is the Lotus 51, harder to drive, had a go with it, kept spinning

It does indeed prefer to face backwards while heading forwards - if you see what I mean. I've had to learn a new driving style to try and master it. Just about got the hang of it, unless someone taps me then it's gone again!
The Lotus 25 is a delight as usual.

Oh god, looks like I've got some practise to do then. It's a shame, I adore the 25. I should have got myself demoted so I could drive it
