Please discuss any pre-race issues here........
I doubt I will get much practice for this event, I am off to stay in a log cabin in wales for a week......which will be nice :)

Don't much like this track. The FZ5 will obviously have the advantage however. Should be a good race.

First corner is amazingly scary in the RAC. On the opposite direction RAC is quite nice on we1 but on normal direction the track really brings out the worst of it. In a way this track is a bit similar to BL1r in some ways. The corners are all quite similar which means to learn one is to learn them all. Hope I can find time to participate, haven't really got any decent results from westhill yet...
EDIT: other things cancelled, I'm in if I has a spot!

Ok, did a little practice this morning, race set and race fuel load, getting high 52's, low 53's consistantly, attached is a WIP setup.

LFSWorld sayz I've done a whopping seven laps on the combo - God knows when. Current PB 1:55.07 so I got plenty of secs to shave off.
Looking forward to the event, though the track itself isn't my favorite.

Personally, I think Westhill is mis-read, I like it, on one side, it feels easy and boring, but if you are really "on it", it is quite challenging, and I like the way each corner flows into each other, plus the last corner can be taken in many different lines, so it's a clear overtaking place.

I have mixed a few sets and attached the result.
Haven't tested it yet, so perhaps you can reply after testing, if it works or not.

Did a new pb. Nothing to joy about as my consistency is awful. Laptimes between high 1:51 to 1:54 :x
Managed to find time to race :tilt:

I'm managing low 1:56's, Jack is catching me up for pace :thumb: but Benj tweaked my RAC set, more oversteery, but I'm just not used to backing off the throttle:D. Hopefully I'll be in the 55's after my testing tonight :D

I'm not going to be able to race tonight, sorry guys - something's come up. Haven't had any practise so I would be propping up the back of the field as it is.
Have a good one!
