H & TCL League Round 6 - Salzburgring 2009 (August 10th)
Salzburgring 2009
The race track was first opened in 1968. Lying in a narrow, alpine valley, it has a rather simple layout, with two long straights plus the sweeping and fast "Fahrerlagerkurve" ("paddock turn") at the bottom, and the narrow "Nockstein-Kehre" on the top. In spite of its simple layout, it garnered a fearsome reputation for the high speeds reached on the straights and the "Fahrerlagerkurve". Michael Doohan describes the section between 7 and 10 as his all time favorite piece of racetrack, likening it to "threading a motorcycle through the eye of a needle at 180mph whilst banging fairings with your competitors with armco barriers on each side". He continues "Sure it was fast and dangerous, but also enormous fun. To me it's what motorcycle racing is all about".
The Salzburgring track hosts touring car races like the German ADAC Procar Series, Deutsche Produktionswagen Meisterschaft, Deutsche Tourenwagen Challenge and Super Tourenwagen Cup. It was also the home of the Austrian motorcycle Grand Prix from 1971 to 1994, except for the 1980 and 1992 seasons. Giacomo Agostini and Angel Nieto are the all-time leaders in motorcycle Grand Prix victories at the circuit, with six wins apiece. Sidecar motorcycle races were also held at the venue. The track has also hosted the Oldtimer Grand Prix as well as during the last years a "Rupert Hollaus Memorial" organized by Ex-Grand Prix motorcycle and sidecar racer, Wolfgang Stropek. In 2008, the circuit played host to the then one-off European Touring Car Cup, with the event being won by Michel Nykjaer.

I find it helps if I try keep the car as straight as possible going over those bumps.
Also try slightly lift off the throttle a little when going over them.

I set the front springs to about medium strength, to cope with the high speed corners, saying that the Dino is a completely different car.

Re: H & TCL League Round 6 - Salzburgring 2009 (August 10th)
The capri and Alpine A310 probably would be a good car start off with.
There both a good all round car, but its great to have a variety on track, that why I chose the Dino.

POSTPONED!
Due to issues where people were getting DQ'ed when going to race, we will postpone tonight's race.
We will run Salzburgring (2009 version) next week with TCL, and go back to Hstorix at Salzburgring the following week.

Re: H & TCL League Round 6 - Salzburgring 2009 (August 10th)
Sorry about that Chris, it was a pretty decent tap, not enough to send you off but must have given you a little rear suspension damage or something ?
My car seemed a little better in the second, had an awesome battle with you guys up front and 3 wide into the hairpin and going 2 wide at the end of the back straight was unreal, top night
