That to is a joke by the way.

Well you actually made a good point, so I did it anyway

We're always open to (sensible) suggestions and improvements - that way the series gets better
I'm curious to see scotty's times, so i can calculate how many laps behind him ill be at the end.
Your safe. Im slower than most when the restriction is on. Im lapping around the 1 min mark.

Can I use it without the restriction please.
Would anyone be interested to do a practice race in FP1 or FP2 on Saturday/Sunday?

I think we can start a race when on the server like in FP1 for Round 4. I'm not sure to how many laps it is set at the moment but it wouldn't be necessary to do a 32 lap race - a 10 lap race would be sufficient.

At least for my part, I would rather practice racing than hot-lapping - after all: We all can practice fast laps offline
You can have a practise race anytime you like... name your time.

Personally (though I'm not a competitor) I'm always online (well, nearly) at around 1600-1900 GMT. If you like using ventrilo (like I do, it's boring to type everything) you can "spy on people" here
I finally went below the 58s mark yesterday with 15 kg ballast. Hopefully I won't get more ballast. The car behaves like it's on rails now

Haha - well - I hope I can stay out of any crash this time. I guess I like slow cars on short tracks with tricky corners. I remember that famous roll-corner in Round 2 heh.

I'm sure you'll be hitting the 57.xx as well - can't really believe that I'm faster
mm did a little practice again yesterday and managed 57.49 with a crap first split

best possible lap is 57.23 i think
but meh its hard to be persistent on this combo

gonna try 32 laps tonight, see how that goes
57.23? My best is 58.63! Although it was with the base set - any tips on how to tweak it (to improve lap times - obviously)?
im using the default set too o_o
havent got the slightest idea how to make it better
That really makes me feel better! lol

I know where I can improve, though. I might be able to get under 58 seconds with a bit of practice. I haven't had much free time, so I've only done about 25 laps!
The gears need doing for a start, and i think the suspension too. The tyres and downforce are okish i think
What? Did you not know that a fast setup makes you 65% faster?? It's all down to your setup!

Look, don't you worry. I say there's always going to be faster people than you around, it's just a matter of how many. Hell, I'm supposed to know what I'm doing, but I doubt I can get below 58 just by practising...
Quote from J@tko :The gears need doing for a start, and i think the suspension too. The tyres and downforce are okish i think

Really? I just left the gears as they are haha.
Well yeah they're ok for some people, I just prefer not to be smacking the rev limiter on the way into T1
i ended up getting so lost with my set... running around aimlessly doing mid 58's. thinking: hmmm, midpack is not gonna be fun. then i realised that my FF was turned down to 5%. so i cranked it up to 50% and guess what... 57.96, 58.12, 57.88, 58.02 and 57.80...

with ballast and 10% fuel

now im running consistant mid 30's 1st sector...

BUT... im tired already, never gonna last 32 laps on that setting.
Haaa - see. You're already faster than me :b I just managed a 57.88 once (although I haven't practiced since and it was with 15kg instead of 9). This might get a really interesting Round. Really looking forward to it.
Here is my skin - i was to lasy to make it myself this time, so I will use a very very classic one : a replica of the Gold Leaf Team Lotus team, made by Bean0(yes, i know, you have already seen this skin 1000 times on Single Seater 1...)

Hope you like it, and by the way, I will use some personnal skins for the two last rounds ! So just be prepared to watch some hidous colors, like flashy green(remember R3)...

Can I come and join you?

BTW, on the start time, we had kinda decided, but then Deko had something else on, then he went to check something and still hasnt come back on IM yet - as soon as its confirmed one of us will post the starting time.

I can confirm however that it will NOT be at the earlier time advertised, it will probably be as normal at 7pm GMT
May as well show you my/gerdoner's skin! (I couldn't be bothered to take an in-game screenshot.)

Don't mind the quality, I'll redo it tomorrow. Although would it be alright if I used this skin at this crap quality? How clear do the numbers have to be?
