AC Mazda MX5@Brands Hatch, Wednesday 6th April 2022

Hmm, I quite like VIR, even though there's the possibility of flying off into the grass and taking a long time to rejoin.

Maybe it's because one of my earliest RD races was around VIR.

The track I dislike at the moment:

Nordschleife

NLS this weekend is canceled because of lack of snow tyres

Who would have guessed that the Eifel Shows snow in April

Hi guys,

Unfortunately i've been struck by some bad luck and ended up in the hospital for some surgery. Without going into detail, i'm doing fine but having some pains which refrain me from going racing.

I will not be racing for a few weeks, probably. Hope to recover soon and be back on track!

That's bad news, Geert Jan. Take care and get well soon!

Oh noes!

Good luck with the surgery and I hope you recover well and soon man. Focus on that. Maybe @Chris Down will be streaming tonight's race? If so you can at least watch it while resting.

This is going to be some race. Qualifying alone is going to be tight.

All the best for a quick recovery.

Geert Jan, wish you a speedy recovery.
Somehow missed the conversation as of yet, just loaded practice server with the Audi. Glad to have seen the thread in time, OK, all mx5 now. Actually I like Brands Hatch, but guess with the mx5 this will be a tough one for me. Cu later.

Hi Thomas, that exactly why I ask everyone to register as soon as possible so we know how many Audi/Mazda there will be.
Maybe we would have had enough Audi drivers after all.

ltnordb · Apr 6, 2022

It's been a while simce I last raced with RD, but think I can make it tonight. Any free slots still available @HF2000 ? Oh, and I would need the password too

Good point, I will register earlier next time.

Hey chaps, I was thinking that with 21 Mazdas qualifying could be utter chaos so, how about we do an 'alphabetical split' with surnames and do the first half (blue) the first 10 minutes and the second half (yellow) the last 10 minutes? Is that an idea Han @HF2000 ?

P.S.1 : I went non-dutch with your surname @Casper de Wit, hope you don't mind.

P.S.2 : New sign-ups can join the last 10 minute stint.

Ernebro · Apr 6, 2022

Thinking of joining this actually! Password?

I think you'll find the track plenty big for 21 cars to be honest

The Almighty Snark · Apr 6, 2022

Don't worry about my name Dzul!

I am fine either way, I think the track is big enough for 20 mazda's. Been driving it a lot in ACC with the GT3 cars and that is usually no issue either. Besides if you go off, you are properly off and beached anyway
