And again maybe 14 dry laps and two with clear traffic and even then only really one clean run at B2 where I always seemed to catch as car (some of the closing speeds were scarey)


Really need that end of day 2-3 sessions to get 20 laps in with maybe 8-10 clear ones to make the best times, but I'm starting to think firstly sub 2m 50 may be a little optimistic and secondly it is always gonna rain now whe go there........



Thanks for the pics Jim,

The ford monkeys are useful for something at least

I agree about the track time too, I spent my time trying not too brake through eau rouge, which for me was a real mind over matter job, plus with my little mind I found it even harder maybe one day I will get under 3:33
