2011/1 RD Touring Car Championship (STCC)

[James Fellows]

I hold the lap record round here in the S2000 class with a 2:31.325 done in a dry qualifying session in a Honda Accord 2008. Dan Allinson has the fastest race lap with a 2:33.932 also in a Honda. For that event there were variable weather conditions so I am not sure if that is a dry lap or a damp lap.

Time since last night:

 

[Dubravko Vučković]

Damm i didint drive 8-10 days but i i think i drive 1:35.xxx in dry condition (38-39 wet ) and that is what my set allowed me ....i hope tonight or if not tonight than one hour before race to practice a little and see if i can be faster than that...

 

[Ivo Simons]

Its all about track knowledge also. More laps you drive you faster you get. And the track so long you easy win 1 sec suddenly, just by knowledge.
I for example raced the track alot before in rFactor and RACE. So the first flying lap was already a 34 for me and thats just because i knew the track

 

[Dubravko Vučković]

Yes i know..and that is second problem that i see track for the first time..and this 2 weeks are hard for me on job so i didnt have to much time to practice...i never have good setup if i not "stole" from someone...but than i practice a lot and get some ok time..this time ufff..but track is fantastic...very very nice...

 

[Jadran Dimic]

On dry condition I have 2:32.2xx and posible best 2:31.6xx with 30 laps practice but on wet condition in 13-15 laps I have 2:35.200.
So need more practice

I guess I'm up for that also!

 

[Bruno Sousa Ferreira]

I've praticed and I'm still about 6 secs off those times shown above 0_0

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

done my 45min. now on a damp RD server, I thought I was quite fast until Hugo turned up churning out laps 10 secs beyond my time with an alfa literally glued to the track while my back was all over the place, lol. Still looking forward to the game, this track is really nice, kind of a pocketbook Nordschleife (once you've figured out how to remember all 22! turns and the danger each one holds).

 

[ufunacaoenn]

Omg I will start practicing tomorrow and take for a first time my peugout around the track and I am not looking forward to a pocketbook of Nordschleife.
"Oh.... Georgios Davakos is of the track for the 100th time"

 

[Andreas Löffler]

Sorry guys i don´t want to race tomorrow, i´m simply "overraced" and don´t want to ruin anybodies race cause unconcentrating and no training . I need a break tomorrow and make something else then simracing.

Do not worry Ryan, as long as there is a video coming I think most of us or not all of us would be very happy.

I was so looking forward to have a battle with you Andreas.
I hope you get the break you deserv.
