AC Group C @ Road America - Weds 19th Feb 2020

[Medilloni]

Count me in with the Porsche ST please.

Welcome Patrick

 

[Medilloni]

Some one has to go with the Mercedes, so I throw my self in to
this hornest nest. New beast to try out why do I do this to my self
time after time

You're in Björn, I'm told you soon get used to the straight line speed of the C9

 

[Kek700]

I had a chuckle at that John, especially the bit about not “noticing”.

 

[Bobby Pennington]

It's a tough time of day for me, but I'll sure try to make it John. Thanks for stepping up to staff I had no clue, but I don't know much anyway with 1mb of storage for a brain

Yep, last time I saw @Geof at RA in a C9

 

[Kek700]

Just spent some time at road America with the C9, re-learning the circuit, trying the car for size too.

Boy is that car quick.

Edit
To tame that beast you need to be a professional Rodeo Cowboy.

The main thing is to figure out how long each straight is, find the halfway point and use it as your braking marker
That car on 90 and 100% boost is just downright evil and scary. I call it the Fire Breathing Dragon or............Satan's Spawn!!!!

 

[Kek700]

I would have driven it bobby, it was winding the boost up and down at beginning and end of every long straight, can you for example Put in 40% boost then press a button and immediately go to 100%.
Managed it quite well with a lot of care, it was permanently waiting to bite.
All that fiddling plumb wears me out.

 

[Björn Johansson]

Spent two evening practise with the C9 try to find some
desent set up ,its crazy can´t have 4-5 laps on the track
always lost it some where.
So I did try the Mazda std set up
and could have 15 laps on the track. but I have to change
car I go for a Mazda please

I see the <cough>'hard negotiations' went well ...the day after Valentines Day

 

[Reik Major]

Lol, yeah I know what you mean. Wish it was like you think but I just made a statement and she agreed. So nothing else happened.

[Kek700]

like I said at Daytona, I will doff the flat cap I wear on top of my crash helmet to every Mercedes C9 that passes in deeeeep respect.

 

[Kek700]

PS

if my memory serves correctly, I did when Craig over took, could not catch the thing either.

 

[Medilloni]

Hey John! First of all, happy early birthday! What better way than your favorite hobby

For me, I better sit this one out and let the body do it’s thing. Hopefully someone streams again though!
