Yandards 0 Posted November 26, 2009 Think my current ring time is 8:56, but that was with faults and need to do some more practice, I agree this is going to be hard track to race on but then if we just did easy circuits it would all get a bit dull. This race is going to be about 35-40 mins long (4 laps at around 9 mins a lap) so it's more about consistancy than some of the tracks. I think we stick with 400 PI, 425 gives you just a few too many options to play with so 400 keeps the tune more focused, also the more you open up the tuning options the more likely it is that someone will just produce a monster that destroys everyone else. Might try some numbers on my car to see how it looks, although being the only yellow one it stands out a mile off anyway! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-=Kris=- 0 Posted November 26, 2009 we may even need to pit for fuel and tyres! that will be quite interesting! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattnorgrove 0 Posted November 26, 2009 Around 7 laps of the ring equals a tank of fuel, tyres tho, I think that'll depend what you're running. Alex, 40 mins too long ?! You wuss! ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There seems to be allot of ppl who wont to race but where to late for the sunday nite League and im getting itchy waiting for another race! i was thinking of an endurance style event over allot of laps to force pit stops and tyre changes ect. If anyone's interested linky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swiftkid 1 Posted November 26, 2009 think its going to be a close race, just deciding if i want more torque or bhp on this track. managed to stick a good lap time in but there are a couple of corners that i keep catching and barrel rolling so im fairly 100% sure im going to end up with a wrecked car at the end of the race.

Jim Bowen 1 Posted November 30, 2009 i was out of the action the whole race but didn't really have many accidents. Think i need to address my tuning options to get more speed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
