After screwing up Le Mans, I did a run and got a 1:41.6. I got a brilliant set up and I should knock about 1-2 seconds off in the next few days. Edited by hammer fhb, Jul 4 2010, 11:29:41 PM.

Perhaps you could add a practice lap times bit in your op daza? and re-name the thread to "Road America Practice Times" or something? I've only started today but I did a 2:00.4... |

I had a few laps around Road America earlier and managed 1.40.5** Which was using the Nurburgring GP setup...i`ll have to tinker with the gears I think....not too sure! I think there will be a few of us LMP1 drivers around the same pace so there is potential for a good race....

I know I have the grip and everything! It's just I need to watch over revving my engine on the high speed corners other than that everything is going really well. |

Hi Dave, these are good times but remember that we don't run our LMP cars with all available mods ! On the Porsche for example, I have the restrictors removed but I have to run rims that are 44lbs heavier than stock ! I look forward to racing with you, I hope you'll run Road Am since Le Mans was too long for all you old men.....

That could be a real issue for you, you might be quick in qualifying but in the race your tyres might go off. I had no issue with tyres overheating.... |

Im curious, I'd imagine places like Road Atlanta and also the Nurburgring were bad races for the Porsche, with all it's self-harming of it's own suspension and stuff?? Also in GT2 we are having different issues with the tyres, personally mine are all working fine, but I know Jonny's weren't heating up quick enough... Also a 2.00.098 is my best, can't remember if I had mentioned that lol... Since then I have made a humungous change and the results are really positive, my best today has been a 2.00.958 ![]() It's going well
