Hello Everyone

Well the cars have arrived safely at Gotham Park and I have conducted a brief shakedown for a couple of the entrants. Stay tuned for some exclusive In Car Video to give you an idea for what is coming up!! No idea how to put the video up - have asked Phil Kalbfell to save the day for me!

Cheers

Bruce

Wow! much better than i expected!!

Rick, i think Davnic's car is the first of the MJK car, that is if you don't count mine, which is on Ortmans.


i think a car or two may be missing from that list, whats the go??

Sorry about that. Final car is missing - Pitlane Cupra. Qualifying time was 6.805. The car certainly looks the goods but the rear tyres wouldn't grip up.

5.6's are seriously fast times for GT cars on my track. Congrats to FCC and Espsix on building a couple of asbolute weapons.

Thanks, but it's only qualifying.
But it's allways nice to be quicker than the host! ;)
i was only expecting "mid field" in tassie, with the plan of going alot faster when the cars get to the "normal" tracks.

Good, it was found again.
It is that slow, that the boss was on the way out as it crossed the line.
As Brett said, time to get of the island.

Thats awesome! Had a bummer of a day got home and saw that i finished top qualifier in a round of my first proxy.Its only 6 100ths of a second but it still counts. Have to be happy with that. I am very wary of Espix car when it hits SA. I have seen mannimals ortman shod Aston at Silverzone and see how it annihilated everything in qualifying at BMR. So far this has been great fun and i am genuinely surprised at how well the car has gone on the Tassie tracks. I thought the car would of been overpowered and way too light but it seems to be not too bad.

Round 3 has been run and won,congratulations to ESPSIX.
After a few cars had been run some of the cars had no grip at all and could hardly be driven on some of the lanes! I drove on lane four and several of the cars seemed to be on ice all night,it was cold in the Batcave BUT not that cold. IMO one of the cars appeared to be leaving residue on the track. Small nils car in particular was the worst while Beejays Pauls tyres and Aastes were about the best on lane four.

Congrats to Espix on the round win. He looks pretty well placed coming to the ortmann loving enoch grey ferradore tracks here. I am a little surprised at any car able to leave a residue on the track after 3 rounds though. I would of thought any tyre goo would be long gone from leaving a residue so was it oil or grease or something?
