Your spelling of Canadian is wrong. How do you go from Canadian to "etc"? |

All right guys....it looks like I will have to temporarily withdraw from the season. I might be able to pop in for a few races, but I will not be able to participate in every race. My shop is breaking down to two 12 hour shifts and 4 days on and 2 days off this way we get some time off and still can support any humanitarian task that come our way. So I will miss the Mugello race. I am not sure which race will be my next appearance. I am playing it by ear now.

So not to kick someone on the rebound, but I am not sure what WOTC Speed doesn't like about the ARX-01b. I just bought it today and just turned 20 laps at Sebring. The first 10 laps I beat his qualifying time by .200. On the second set of 10 laps I beat his qualifying time by nearly 1 full second which was 1:48.3xx, mine was 1:47.378. I am sure if I would have turned the 200 sum odd laps in it like I did the Porsches I would run the same times as I did before. Great balancing of the P2's Riot.

No sarcasim at all. I ran a 1:46.5 I think at Sebring in the #7 Porsche RS Spyder. All is well shifty. Just kicking a few back on my Irish heritage day that rolls into my birthday. Edited by C4pt4in 0bvious, Mar 17 2011, 06:26:39 PM.

I don't like the idea, I don't think that new guys should be gifted a title, I say, and will always say, that winning a title in P2 is the same as GT, and GT is the same as P1. It is the same level of achievement, and it means that you have been better than everybody else driving that type of car. I think if a new guy is good enough to win the title and deserves it, he will win it. I don't think that you should get a title just for being new. Thats the wrong way round in my opinion. I mean its not to say that there is no recognition for being the best rookie, of course it carries it's own prestige, and flags you as a future star in the series. Also about the P2 cars - I had them all within 4 tenths when balancing them, so I do hope they work in others hands! Thanks for the kind words Captain

On that note, anyone have a tune for the acura? I've been tuning it myself, but am not sure if I have made much progress. |

I agree I am one of the new guys I may not be the fastest but I don;t want to be in a group of so called slow people that would make me feel downgraded and unimportant. I have noticed a big improvment in myself since my first race at Laguna last year. |

Exactly, another good point is who is a rookie? Most of the so called 'new racers' came at the last race of last season, which would mean only a couple of people are true GT 'rookies'... |

I kind of question Speed's problems with the Acura too, as I own and drive all of them constantly. They've got some amazing handling balance, even with restrictions, and they don't look half bad either. Not to mention those nice, high-revving HPD V8s. |

Alright lets not turn it into a Speed bashing session, I was not questioning him at all. Just telling Captain 0 about my times at Sebring. |

I'm not bashing, I'm just saying it is a good car. Heck, probably should have gone with one of them in P2! Anyways though, all that is behind me, I'm focused on my job ahead at Peugeot, hopefully I'll get that design and tune in my inbox soon enough. |
