DaBirdski / #15 / Renault-Elf
Had a chance to do a few more laps tonight and I agree the setup is much improved. After 10 or 20 laps I my fastest was was a 132.2 running default fuel load and I feel like there's probably at least another second or better to be had with some more practice. I'm going to sign up but I'll be at my brothers for the weekend and will be on different network, chair, beer, etc. I've never done very well when racing from there but if I can make it in between family goings on, I will. As aggravating as the F1's can be, These could be quite fun if we can keep em on the road and off of each other.

With the boost set at 1, even 48 laps worth of fuel might be more than enough. I'm going to run a simulated race length sometime tomorrow if I can, so I'll let everyone know a decent fuel level.
Ran 25 laps tonight in one run and it still showed 30 something or so laps of fuel left in the tank.

Hi all, I am really interested in joining this, and the timing looks ok, but I am afraid, that myself being inexperienced can ruin your race. I will try practicing in the upcoming days (hopefully wont be alone on the server), but I understand that being able to do fast laps is far from being a good racer. What is your opinion on this? (I am not totally noob, played a lot of races online with Race07, but I am new to Rfactor.) I completely understand if you tell me that I need more practice, I just do not have enough experience to decide, how bad it would be for you if I join .

There is a practice race tonight if you are interested. I am sure you will be most welcome. This is only supposed to be a fun race so I would think that makes it an ideal race to start racing with us.

...but I am afraid, that myself being inexperienced can ruin your race. I wouldn't worry about that...we usually do enough all by ourselves to ruin our races.
