*IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ*

Historic racing is famous for the gentleman racer era and that is the kind of atmosphere that I'd like to foster in the club. Please take time to read these web pages and try to get an understanding of what racing in this club is/should be all about.

Thanks

Hi guys!
Finally my mega-time-consuming project at work is up and running, so my work there is done for now.
At last there'll be some time for racing again; I've had to pass on too many nice-looking events recently.
However, after some practice earlier tonight I'm afraid this combo will be a bit too much to dive in rusty and all.. This track is great, and while I find the car's handling to be... well... interesting I'm afraid I'll need a LOT more practice to be able to keep it pointing the right way all the time.

So you gents have fun and I'll be there next time!

 

[Jim Carvalho]

So I'm finally available to race on Thursday and you're taking a break! Good on ya mate. I'll keep an eye out for the next event.

Won't be long. Work is busy and club racing is super quiet but that'll change very soon.

 

[Daniel R.]

... Can't wait for it to change!!!

 

[Denis Betty]

It's not unknown for club racing to pick up in August. Maybe I should post something for next week. But what though? Something we all enjoy.... not too tricky. Hmmm... I'll have a think.

 

[Daniel R.]

Let's do the Cortina at nurburgring...
Its great!!

 

[Denis Betty]

I don't have Nurburgring. Too expensive and not sure my PC would run it on triples.

 

[Denis Betty]

Server is up for event on Thursday 5th August. I will post the event thread tomorrow evening.

Mate, I wanna practice a bit on the server tonight. You have time to join? Looks like a nice combo. Maybe @max1966i will be with us too...

Sure thing. I'll get some food and post the event and then I'll come on. It's a long track so we need to learn it. Maybe we can steal a march on the army of quick guys who will doubtless be signing up.

 

[Denis Betty]

just eating now.
will post the event and jump on the server in the next hour
