It's tight at the top of the Team's Championship, with only 2 points between PTR Aero Dynamics and Magnaflow AAR. Privateer leader VVV Slim isn't far off WWR Chillz' outright Driver's Championship lead.

Qualifying is 5 minutes, not 1 hot lap.
I believe the last two races we decided to remove the 5 minute rule as it was unfair to the guys starting at the rear of the grid.
The new rule was 1 out lap, 2 hot laps and then meet in turn one.
So, it is 2 hot laps, not 1.
See you all tonight.

[Richy59]

I totally forgot about this so better get some testing done.

[XTI Jon Snow]

I signed up to race today. Probably only going to be able to do this one race, are the cars allowed to be tuned? i know you cant up grade them

[CQR Rogue]

Hey Patrick,

Yes you can apply a set up for the v8's.

Let WWR Aero aka Chris know you intend to race tonight as well.

See you on the track later.

[XTI Jon Snow]

Thanks duncan

[Matt]

Everyone, we are only using the opt out system on the site. So you are assumed to be racing unless you tell us otherwise.

There's no penalty if you can't race, just if you are online you'll get an invite

[XTI Jon Snow]

I put the holden as a first choice because i think the fords are taken. am I right to assume this? dont wanna paint the wrong car

[AMR JSlim]

Not at all looking forward to tonight. This track is good for TCC but not for this, although it will probaly be close...good luck trying to overtake.

[Matt]

If you're entering as an Indy then yeah Holden would be the best choice

[WWR Chillz]

Ah man. This will be awesome, as long as people can keep control of their beast. Looking forward to it, but I agree overtaking will be difficult, but not impossible. What times you doing slim?

[AMR JSlim]

Quickest clean is 1.10.3xx, just about get into the 1.09's but I'm about as consistent as Phil Mitchell on crack round here.

[WWR Chillz]

Quickest clean is 1.10.1xx, but can run consistent 1.10.4xx's with the occasional 1.10.8 thrown in for good measure.

[Y22 DJH]

hate the track, will see how we do, i agree about overtaking though

[XTI Jon Snow]

Gr im actually a maybe on this, apparently i may have to go out around 20:00

[HCR generaltso]

1:10.863

[ckBrenneke]

Apologies on the discrepancy on qualy, I copied from a previous version. Yes, the qualy will be 4 laps.

Outlap, 2 hotlaps, stop on the final lap to collate times.

[Richy59]

That was good fun, we had a few bumps and scrapes but overall we had some good racing I'll get some pics up soon.

[Britracer]

Well my first time of tuning a car and I managed to knock off a couple of seconds so I wasn't completely uncompetitive. Overall, pretty good

[AMR JSlim]

Why is it everytime me and Chillz are on for a good battle, some thing happens and robs us of a good race.

I was slowly catching you Chillz, only for your damned Wheel to play up again. All race i was trying for a clean 1.09...i kept going .2 up on a 10.1 and then losing out and coming across the line as .1 / .2. I ended up being pretty consistent though.

[WWR Chillz]

Well done Slim. Maybe next time we will have an epic battle. I am looking forward to it. My wheel has cost me a few races this season.
Also well done to Aero for winning race 1.
