A message to all Drivers
If you run off track, you have to check and see that its clear before you re-enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits stay off the racing line until you are up to speed and do not race on your out lap. Let other drivers by in qualifying.
On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Remember, you've made the mistake by going off so let them by cleanly.
Golden Rule

1. Be 100% sure it's not your fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a complete lift of the gas please if it is safe to do so.
   You will be penalized if you break our rules

[Celtic Pharaoh]

70 minutes?

In all seriousness though, I'll take a Ferrari please. Thank you Bobby

 

[Bobby Pennington]

70 minutes?

Ok, 69 minutes

 

[Celtic Pharaoh]

Ok, 69 minutes

Perfect!

 

[Bobby Pennington]

Perfect!

Does this mean you want a 3some with 2 Lorena's

No no. I'm taking a break from being stabbed
I'll take a Ferrari this time.

You've got it. Man this track is tough for me

 

[Celtic Pharaoh]

Yep, it's quite technical in some parts. Turn 3 (long right) is probably the hardest to get down. I personally found double apexing it works well
And late apex the last 3 corners. That's where you can gain or lose the most time. Make sure to go medium to high downforce. You'll need it to keep the back end in check in those corners.

Yep, you just named my problem children Gonna take me a while to get it down. @Dirk Steffen and I ran some last night. He's really got good lines around the joint.

 

[Corey Rogers]

I'll take the AMG. I just love this car.

 

[InsaneOzzie]

Im in, no jewellery class this Saturday, at this point I'll take one of Enzo's Red Pack Mules

You've got it

It's still a jewellery class. We have rings and wrist pins

 

[Dirk Steffen]

I’ll take a Porsche please ;-) I really like this track quite a bit. It makes for amazing racing!

I started to build setups for several cars and once they are a bit presentable, I will share them here.

So far I have to say that I do not envy the people who have to take a AMG GT3 around here - you are going to need a lit of tires ;-)

The easiest car by a huge margin around here is the Porsche.

This version of the track unfortunately suffers from being unrealistically bumpy in certain sectors - set up your cars around that and you will be fine.

Did The Convict actually tell us that he is placing what he calls "Jewelry Class" over spending a good time with his mates?

Maybe our GOLDEN BOY thinks he is better than us …

Or did The Convict find out about HIS GIRLY SIDE during …
"The Neighbor Ladies Shower Job" ?

I love the AMG. I'm slower than you guys with any car even though I'm usually faster in the Porsche vs the AMG. But I figure if I'm going to practice driving through the field I might as well do it in style, not to mention the best machinery , and that engine note ...... music to my ears.
