In all my sessions best I could Vmax was 3 @ 127 mph and 1 @ 126, and Jim only got 128 mph...like I said Shim, yours gets away down the straight quicker in a drag race, hence the 135 mph , and its not that im coming out of the corner with a slower exit speed...maybe I need a new engine !!

... good lap time ... that would be the one when there was no other fooker out wouldnt it !!!????

I banged out a 2:17 on the hankooks-of-win.

Not sure if everyone changed to slicks/cups in the afternoon or just get progressively better; in the morning I was doing the catching/passing and then in the afternoon it was all I could do to maintain a following distance.

Give me some cups or slicks and wow - it'll be an 'off' of spectacular proportions ;-)

Fantastic circuit though, truly epic. No need to trek to silverstone any more, this is just as good.
