Mugello won't go that well for me. I can get into the 1:29s pretty easily, but 1:28 is pretty much out of the question. I dunno what it is, but much like Catalunya, I just can't get this track.

I know how you feel ;) But that don't rule out a good finish

Also your idea for track records was very arousing, I'll get right on it

Well, hopefully I can improve my idea by possibly adding a track record sometime this season!

Good idea for the lap records bit. I'm guessing it's just for qualifying though as some practice times were faster. It's impossible to remember them all though, I like it :)

Well, that's generally what lap records are taken from, I'm sure most of us have been uber quick in practice only to not pull off that dynamite lap in qualifying, a la me at New York.

yeah, like one of my laguna practice laps was 0.3 quicker than venom's record but I couldnt do the same time in qualifying. FML.

Well, the pressure is on in qualifying, people are watching, you may know others times and be pushed to beat them, or you may just have a bad session. Regardless, it's not all about the qualifying, as I think Ablou proved by taking victory in the Aston at NYC.

Do you want me to refine it more? Did the car feel like it was oversteering or understeering?

I haven't turned a lap for at least a week and the break had a positive effect on me because I just went back at it and turned my best lap after four 6 laps stints :

1.32.047

Well, with the car set to the restrictions in stock garb, I'm running right around 1:30, so with Hammer or Jester's superb (or so I'm told) tune, I should be able to get it down into 1:29 territory, perhaps even pull a banzai lap like I managed in the Mazda at Sebring and crack 1:28.

Regardless though, I'd like to give a big thanks to the guys at Team Total Peugeot for giving me this opportunity. I'm hoping I can keep up, score some points, and perhaps even nab a pole or podium along the way. My goal in the FLMS was to end up with a factory P1 team, and Peugeot has given me that chance, so thanks guys, it means so much to me :)

I know I've never been appreciated much around here in the series, and people surely don't envy my mediocre driving skills, but I aim to prove that I can get out their and run with the best, because after all, it's not about whether you win or lose, it's how you run the race.

P.S. Canadians don't have splitty heads and British accents. contrary to what South Park has told you.

There is nothing wrong with British accents?

Not sure what it is or if it's dangerous but I've only done it once and I thought Sesame Street was downstairs.

Jam ran a 45 in the GT best I can manage is a high 48.

Wish I could tune.It seems I have it feel good then try to adjust it one way it gets worse and when I go back it gets even worse.
