I'm hoping to be ok for this but as my daughter is off for a school trip to Paris this weekend me and the missus may take the opportunity to get out and about.

I won;t know for definite until the day so best put me as a Maybe.

No worries mate.

I'll be there.
Currently going slowly though. 1:39.5 is my best atm.

Can i join for this race?

Been Practising done high 1.38's but man the chicane is annoying with no traction. Literally clipping the first part of the kerb and it spins

Yeah should be fine

I've been getting in some practice even though I may not be available. Struggled initially to get below the 1:40 mark but a bit of setup work and I am now consistently in the 38's in race trim and hope to get to the 37's next time I am on track.

I think this track is more of a challenge than any of the others we've raced so far, maybe because it's one i've not raced very often but there's definitely something more needed to get a good time around here

I have to admit I'm really struggling to get a decent time on this track. Not sure weather it's the slow corners or what but a high 1:40 is a good lap for me at the moment.

What's the weather setting ?

Managed to get in a couple of practice races in the last couple of days. Best of 1:37.901 so far with a race average of low 1:39's.

I really hope I can make this one as I am really enjoying the challenge of this track but it's looking less likely at the moment.

Maybe.

out sorry

Weather has been updated to LIGHT CLOUD.
And the In/Outs has been amended.
Looking pretty thin on the ground this weekend.

Nice to see Rebel posting though.

No backing out this week I swear

Maybe, as received a soccer injury today to the ribs. In a bit of pain, see how I wake up.

Hope you better soon mate.

Not going to make it back in time im afraid.  Sods law the race clashes with a rare kid free weekend so been out in Camden Town all day with the missus and now having some grub and drinks before going to the cinem and won't be back until 10ish.  Have fun guys..  Loving this track and had some really good pace here but got to get some quality time with the missus while the daughters away...

I won't make practice. Hoping to make quali....

No worries mate, enjoy your night

Apologies for the "rage quit". 1st corner mishap, hit view button, fumbled to remember which button was mapped, paused, not it, wrecked, and got fed up. Not my proudest moment.

Thanks for the race guys. Had a good battle at the start with OctoberDusk, but with my 3 year old deciding to show off his juggling skills with a light globe which didn't end well getting me distracted and then the dad call of keep clear of this area so no small feet became a blood bath! Anyway I held in to get a 6th last place. Bit battered from my soccer injury (Over 35's against a bloke that didn't know how to stop and bold me over twice during the game didn't do my ribs any good, think he thought we were playing rugby), great to see the mid pack have a awesome race. As Hurt said it is a track hard to overtake, but such a good track in my opinion.
