ffs guys! I'm going to get mullered again

BTW, it's not Copperhead we're racing on, it's Boomslang

Arse. I got down to about position 350 on that

Be interesting to see the tuning routes people take - high power versus lower power and more handling mods...

Don't worry, doing a good time trial is not necessarily much help in a race. Boomslang is small and doesn't really have any straights so I'm expecting a "Touring Car" style race

I'll probably increase the laps to 10 or so instead of the usual 5.

Don't forget if we run it as a series then the number of laps applies to every race in that series..

Ok, I'll see if I can find 2 other short tracks to go with Boomslang. Otherwise it'll have to be only 5 laps of Boomslang.

Hmm, mugello has a really long straight. may have to be a compromise I think.

How about 10 laps of: Maple Valley Short Mugello Short Boomslang That should be a bit of fun The first two are around 1 minute laps and the last is around 30 seconds per lap.

[Shep]

They sound good. (although if you change the tracks now, all the extensive testing and tuning I've done on Maple Valley and mugello will go to waste... ) Getting my excuses in early.

Is your VX220 ok? It's just that I thought I could hear it misfiring.

You had plenty of time behind me for a good listen last round.

Hehe, I'm running it this time

Ever raced a standard VX against everyone else in B700 VXs?

[pure]

Mmmmm, usual time tonight? Ive been away and got back this morning, pretty shagged out! I will have to get my vx tunned 2nite (time permitting). If I am not online, i will have fallen asleep but I will try my best to get there.

Good racing

I lead the first race for about 5 laps which I was chuffed with:


Second on Boomslang was pretty tricky as it was so tight:


Dodgy move by Coco


Race 4, I don't know what happened. I assume my connection was laggy. From my point of view, I took off from the line, had a clean race and came in third after Coco and Tif. Watching back the replay though (I saved them all), everybody else seemed to be doing this off all the walls:



Got all the replays saved and photos of the final results if anyone wants them

[tifosi V8]

Good photos Jase Some great racing last night, I had a lot of fun chasing down Jase on Mugello Short! It was interesting to see the upgrade routes people took to be quick, made my races interesting.. Shame about the laggy episode on Maple Valley Short If I'm running next weeks races as Crimson said, I think we should go with A850. Tracks TBC.. (will confirm later!)

[CocoPops]

Had a couple of good races with Tif, suzuka was interesting.... I had the power on the straights but he had the grip through the corners.... one too many slides (which were held interestingly enough) and he nipped through on the inside. Overall I thought last nights racing was very well done, very clean.

Some great saves Coco, I thought you were heading deep into the gravel but you pulled it back well!!


Just to confirm..

Next weeks races up to A850

on..

Mugello
Sebring Short
Sunset Infield

I would expect these to be 5/6 laps each.

Indeed, top night as usual. Was gutted on mapple valley as jase suddenly appeared indise my car pushing me into the wall and ripping off the front splitter and making all my internals yellow / red. Meaning I had to limp around half a lap and pit in. Race was over for me. All part of the fun tho :-) A850 next week sounds good to me, already got a decent setup A850 VX so hopefully just be able to do a little tinkering and it will be sorted. Gonna go for the Slicks next time as they didnt half make a difference. Top pictures, I like that 1st one where I am going past you Jase @ mugello. :-)

[CocoPops]

A850 you say.... goes to start planning
