Aye I will have to get a mic sorted for next time myself. Ah didn't know that will try when I get back on tomorrow. How long you been racing? That was my second day on the game really even though I subbed a few months back I never gave it anytime.
Only a couple of weeks mate started first week of April but started to get into it more last few weeks. Im a quick learner and have just listened to all the advice everyone as given me.
Yeah thanks guys was great fun, Spils big thanks to you too been practicing a bit more tonight. SMOOTHNESS IS THE KEY! And thanks Aknor for hosting it. Maybe next time we can do a public practice but i cant make it tomorrow night sorry guys i think the gf will play hell maybe friday night now.
Again cheers everyone that was a very enjoyable 2 hours and learnt a great deal!

Just stick with it Dean we managed to get your pb down lap after lap think we took nearly 3 seconds of your starting time. I no you all got into the 1:00 dead that lap time will get you a host of wins in the Lower splits. Im racing the top split every night there over 20 laps at lime rock i average 1:00 dead do 59s on a good lap and thats good for a top 3 finish.
Just remeber slow is fast in the mx5 and stay within your ablity. Your never get fast by over driving the car all that will do is keep you with a rookie licence forever.
Also Ill set up another sunday night this time as a qualify and race. You can all try what you learnt in an enviroment that doesnt matter if you screw up, as we are all friends there.

Just getting this downloaded now, Don't know much about it, I hoping it's all clean racing & good racing.
How many cars can race at once?
How many cars can race at once?
From what others have been saying the Rookies may not be the haven of clean and good racing that they once were unfortunately, however once you're out of Rookie level stuff it gets a lot better
The number of cars on track depends on both series (if official series, or what the host setup with hosted sessions) and the track itself (different tracks, and even different configs, have different numbers of pitstalls, generally in the ~24-40 region)
Rookie sessions are quite low numbers of cars (12?) whilst it goes up to 25+ I believe on some series.
Just seen he got a 12.6 with it, that's silly from a 26 rear wing, looking forward to trying it when I get home later

Right no Mx5 Racing for me tonight. *Specially after the one I did last night* 2nd to last due to an idiot 
Did a session with Pete last night G think you'd gone to bed managed about 30 laps without going off, keeping Pete behind me. I was averaging 1:16 and 1:15 on a really good lap with race fuel on board I was running 13.1 gallons
Started to get used to your set now mate and what the cars going to do in each of the bends. ******** myself for tonights race think ill start from the pits.
Skill and Gravey if by any chance you becomes magnets to me I apologise now. Ill try and stay predictable when your passing me and let you past where its safe.
One thing I've noticed I loose concentration to much specially going into T2 forget to brake and just slide down that hill off the track and into the tires.

just had an epic race LOL
and this is why you start from the pits in rookie
probably my fault that i contacted with that guy although i was faster so thought he might leave me the inside
i was in second place on lap 10 then i hear my 7year old son fall down the stairs...
so i go and check hes alright and then i come back and im still in third place :O caugh the second place guy up and over took him but finished 20 seconds behind the winner...
just looked how much time i lost when my son fell down the stairs
10 02:13.355 off track
could have been such an easy win

Jesus, I never saw driving that bad when I first started!
Ah, the old Ragequit Gravey 
That was a tough race, great start, then you made the mistake and I knew my only chance was to gap you asap, which led to me spinning like a n00b at Moss
Finally got sorted, calmed down and after you span infront of me into second and settled down to trying to catch up to Maurice, some good laps, some bad, but I almost made it, was 0.9 over the line going into the last lap, 0.7 by Moss and I was consistently getting better exits from Moss but in my eagerness to get it perfect I went in too deep and just got half-off-track but ruined any chances of getting the win, ah well...
I definitely think 26 is the way to go, so much more stable that makes it easier to recover from the mistakes, of which I made many, and it's definitely capable of staying with a 17 set due to the tow, just still not sure of the other way around, if you get it right you might be able to get enough ahead before the exit of Moss but it'll be stressful
