I wouldn't be too eager to say that!

Thanks Jason!

From one extreme to the other now, with Sam it was just trying to make the grid to beat what Sam did, now..........Pole is the only acceptable with JR's car

Bah ...

Bah indeed

Can I request a change to the #34 car please.

Again, well tested back to back with the E72 chevy....I'll miss the sound and the excitment of trying to keep it pointed forwards outta corners.

Do I get a badge for most unsettled driver/biggest pain in the butt??

One to go....

Okay, Mick is now in #34     I think Richard has an avatar you can use. 

Free cars are:

#30
#51
#89
#94

At the request of Paddock TV, who need enough time to draw up images for the Time Trials coverage, the entry list will be locked at 18h00 Paris Time on Wednesday May 20th (tomorrow).  At that point I will send them a final spotters guide for Time Trials. At the same time, I will release the Time Trials schedule showing everyone's time slot.

Here you go Mick, A nice avatar for you!

Thank you very much Jason............much appreciated. My sincere apologies for being a pain in the butt. It is often I dont appreciate what is involved behind the scenes. Considering what I started with, I am very fortunate with what I have ended up with.......settled

And thanks for Avatar, Richard......now all I need to do is turn my brain inside out working out how to use it......

The first setup I gave you should work, just change the front wing angle to 20 or so. I'll upload it to the web later tonight

It does indeed, thx Albert. I used it in my back to back test, with a bit more front wing. Thx.

There are two decent cars for Alessio to choose from And even the other two are probably better than the ancient Eagle

I'm not going to win the Indy, so I want to try the heroic task of qualifying 33rd in this shit box Besides, the car will likely go unused for ever otherwise

Oh well, good luck with that

Now THAT is a man with hair on his chest...and a lot of sweat on his brow flying a crate 4 laps.

The HSO version of the musical chairs

But he better not try too hard and qualify it, or he will be sitting on that shitbox for 2 and a half hours

That is literally the case because it only appears at Indianapolis and that's it

Well then it definitely has to be used this week

The car actually drives very nicely, just no downforce and an engine which lets me hit 200MPH for a millisecond

Bonjour a tous,
après 1 an d'absence, j'aimerais savoir si je peut participer avec la Mc Laren #89?

Salut Philippe ! Ca fait plaisir de te revoir dans le coin . Allez hop hop réserve une Trans-Am aussi ! A priori pas de souci pour la #89 ici mais c'est Jason qui validera définitivement

Salut Frank,
moi aussi ça me fait plaisir de revenir un peut par ici.
Je voit qu'il y a toujours autant de monde
Pour la trans-am, je dit pas non, mais je ne suis pas sur de pouvoir faire beaucoup de course donc je vais attendre un peut avant de m'inscrire.
J'aimerais bien essayer aussi le mod proto de chez VLM, mais n'ai pas trop le temps de participer a un champ en ce moment, donc je verrais plus tard.

#89 goes to Philippe

Free cars are now:
#30
#51
#94

Merci

The entry list is now locked for Time Trials.

The qualifying order can be viewed in the first post of the Time Trials thread.

Entry list is unlocked again, as we are post-qualifying.

We have a full 33-car field and 1 race day alternate.  If more than one of the qualified drivers do not appear on race day, we will allow non-qualified drivers to fill the back of the field on a first come, first served basis. Drivers joining the field in this fashion must have a car booked here prior to race day.
