Was going to ask who'd be first into the forty-second bracket, but Corty's already done it!

For such a simple layout, it's a bit of a mission to make speed here.
Looking forward to the races.

Yes I had a crack last night, its not easy to pull the sectors together here !
I think its the bumps in the critical parts of the track that makes this track a little tricky. 
Did a few in the air fist pumps when I finally cracked into the 49s 

Wonder if Matty C can get into the 48's ?

Hey guys I'd like tio join in the race tomorrow night but getting hdv error on the cars. Anything I'm missing?

All good now!!

Cheers!

Looks like 49's are coming easy now if Chris and myself can get em..

hahaha 49.4 is on the cards for the ferrari 456.

i was doing 53s in practice, but struggled to get near that pace on race day.

I tapped Pyro into a spin at the first corner of the sprint race and wrecked both our races.

I felt so terrible about it i was like Misss Daisy at the start of the feature race. I tried to race with Pyro and Nuty, but i just wasn't quick enough and trundled around at the back.

I don't think Pyro had a good night...

was on a car cruise and had got caught up at a mates place having drinks after  shame i missed it as it looked like you were slow last night!

You missed out on the exploding Brake Rotors that affected myself, Worm and Growler (and I think Fez).  I limped home to an 8th place finish.

I took myself out of contention at my pit stop because I couldn't access the menu item to "Repair Damage" as it wasn't displayed due to the res I was running in windowed mode.  Sat in the pits for an additional 25 odd seconds fixing some minor door damage.  I was happy enough with my race pace though and got down to a solid PB of 50.4, but the brake rotor thing stuffed my night.  Good racing with Supa and Growler for the most part .  Good fun gents!

I got the Porsche setup pretty well for this track, but still had to be careful with the slide coming out of corners.

Was a bit off with my qually time but still managed 3rd, so very happy with that.

Race 1, I was having a good battle with worm at the start of the race for a few laps, but I couldn't quite setting in a rhythm quick enough, also when a car is in front of me, my car handles a little off (but that may be just me ?), as I always manage to spin it behind when following another car.
Anyway that's what I did, send me back to 6th or so, but got back to 4th by the end of the race.

Race 2, When WORM behind, I knew I had to create a gap before he got through the pack, so I managed to get past Stevo quite early and made a decent gap, but the time WORM got through it was out to 6 sec or so, then managed to push that out to 8 sec.
WORM went in for his pitstop, I did a couple more laps, but they were pretty scrappy, so I did mine and come out about 5 or 6 sec in front.
Took a little while to get the pace back up, had a couple of slides which put WORM right on my rear, so the fight was one !!
I think we must have done about 10 qually laps in a row with the gap staying between .200 & .700 of a sec LOL, sadly (NOT, hehe) WORM had a brake fail with a few laps to go, which allowed me to cruise home for the WIN 

Very surprised with this one, as this Mod is really a "bogey mod" for me !
Still trying to get my head around them.

90min around SPA is going to be a mission !!
