What about changing the final drive gear? Should help you catch him without changing the class of the car.

do they have to pit?


Two driver teams have to pit for 1m 50s, as a single driver I have to pit for 2m and get out of the car and close the door before getting back in.

I'm on 888's and R1R for wet so I'm not skimping on tyres, I'll buy the tyres that are necc, the final drive will be changed by Donnington. Didnt really need the mirror in this race but I'm sure I will in subsequent races. I know its big Steve but it really doesnt weigh much!!! :P

You and me both. The last 3 pictures of that sequence didn't even feature your car as I had my eye's closed and was starting to duck. :lol:

Great stuff!! I'll see if i can pop down to Donnington this month to watch. Impressed with the rattle can spray job.... I might even concider doing it to mine.. The more races you'll do the quicker you'll get too.. It's all about shaving the odd seconds off here and there...
