2:13? Geez... I'm lucky if I can break 2:20...lol... Care to send your setup to try?

Kevin Ascher · Jan 1, 2011

Sander is close to 2:12.. :-O
I would, experience shows that a conventional setup would suit you as a beginner in the C6R better than the slippery one I use

You still can have it if you come to the server now or tomorrow

Sander Hogendoorn · Jan 1, 2011

I did 2:12.8 offline, but I got lost during improving my setup, making it worse instead :tongue:

The Silverstone fixed setup is pretty stable around here, not as fast but good to handle.

Joe Hubbard · Jan 1, 2011

Kevin I think that you are right about that. I had a guy tell me to try his setup and it was like driving on ice to me. Yes, he was fast as heck but I spent more time backwards if you get my drift...lol...

That's not so bad then. If that had been with 90L I would have been seriously worried. :tongue:

William Nowell · Jan 2, 2011

If you guys are backing out because of me, please don't, I'm really not that fast:wink:.

Just got home - 3-1/2 hours of 58 & I-95 at the end of holidays in the wet - feels like I just finished a double-stint at Spa....
