Oh, that is my bad... I copied the times from an old event and forgot the DST change! It's an hour earlier everyone! I'll change the times now....

Hi Scott, please sign me up. As usual, with the "parent-disclaimer", if kids or higher authority (wife!) permit. Due to the late time, I will only be able to take part in Practice, Qualy and Race 1. Thanks a lot for organizing.

So... I had a quick crack in these last night after we finished in the Caterhams and I had the same issue which is making me wonder if I'm missing something with AMS. I was locking the wheels really easily in the Caterhams and although not quite as easily I was seeing lock ups in the V8's at about 60% braking which doesn't feel right.

I didn't have the same problem in the formula inters so am I missing something or is it just a matter of adjusting to lighter braking in these?

That doesn't sound right. Are you practicing on the server or just doing a time trial/practice session? I'm just wondering if it's track conditions. I'll check the server date/time in a bit.

I was on the server, I'll try in time trial in a bit see if that makes any difference.

 

[Sanbone]

Balls, just realised I've got my weeks mixed up and I'm out for a curry tomorrow night so will have to miss this one unfortunately.

 

[Lloyd Johnston]
