That would be good 9YaTaH

I will be on comms at turn 1.1 at the bottom of the straight and will be wearing a VMCI hat.

I will be waving like mad at all the minis too at the end of each session with the non-mini loving flaggies thinking I am mad so mini drivers better wave back!

I hope some of the minis have a video going on board too.

PS: Just booked the last room at the motel we will be at, they are starting to run out so be quick.

It is the way the rules are written, "limited extendability" is what it says.
Leather straps do not stretch, bungies do.

9yatah,

The Under 3ltr HTC "race" is 55 cars, Commen sense would suggest two hands !

1.1 is actually the mid apex and alots happening, I must admit, In the 10 years Ive raced at the island Ive never attempted it single handed !!!!!, Maybe time for a change, Just dont mention it to CAMS !

Meeni,

have you got yourself a full sponsored Carrera Cup drive for 09 yet ? I hear the boys in Cup cars take 1.1 single handed ? and even 3 abreast ?

2.5 Water Pumper ! From my experience even in a 944 1.1 is not possible single handed !, but i'd love to see it ! Did you decide on Aussie racing Formula Ford or Gt3 Challange or sticking to 44 challange for a few years ?

Gt3 Challange, 1st year $150k (including the car), Gt3 Challange 2nd year $60-80k, before ya get pushed off, Carrera Cup 09 current rate before ya crash it is $40k (9 rounds, $360K) per round and you just leasing the drive. My suggestion. Buy a house !...........

But, it all about FUN at that level Im sure !
