Thanks Parcells. That matches the sheet and unless one of the other drivers chimes in w/ a challenge, no need for the replay.  yes

Adjusted the tune for the Renault, and in 6 laps I put in a 1:10.888.  No idea whether that's good or not as the LB's are chock full of faster times from full PI cars.

I assume you meant 2.10.888 which I can see Pap eeking out. I think others are in the low 12's so high 11's from a capable tuner/driver isn't too far off.

That's your handicap this week Knight...you run the long course while Parcells runs the short track. I can almost taste the victory.

 

Boza/Fitzy: Hows our Renult looking? Still haven't played with the tune you sent me Fitzy so if there are any improvements you'll let your favorite privateer racer know won't you bud.

Are you on my FL Parcells?  I sent the tweaked Nurb tune out shortly after the Maple Valley race.  I can send you what I did if you didn't get it from Fitzy.

Fitzy sent me a tune awhile ago for Nurb but I don't know if it was updated or not.   The fastest I can get is a 2:11.898.  I need to practice if your hitting 2:10's Paparaazzi!!  Anybody going to be on later who wants to run some laps??

Think your safe this week Parsells, last week was a track I could drive with my eyes closed and I fully expected a good result...This week not so confident so, given a slower car and my lack of confidence, if you don't beat me it's time to retire...no pressurelaugh

Welcome to the Honda team mate! Give me or Steviegers a ring when you're on Forza next. We've been testing tunes to try and get the Honda to be competitive on this track.

Clearly you need the power reduced more if you're still averaging that time. Or we'll all get lucky and your wife will be in labor swearing at you for putting her in that position! ;)

Boza and Parcells the tune I sent you is the most updated one, I can get into the low 2.11s with it. There is a 2.10 in the car I just need to string a good lap together. I ran with Church And Gizzie when they were running with their power reductions they are losing nearly 2 seconds a lap on this track. I might be on later for practice. Mass Effect 3 is keeping me busy right now.

Parcells, what do you think about starting the Privateer race a few minutes late (5 maybe 10)...just to allow the factory teams time to pull in the backups if needed.  That way we can hopefully avoid the calls coming in to pull someone up when we are already 25% or more into the race like Race 1. 

 

And on that note, Factory Teams, please try to get your calls out for the Privateer fillins early.  We were almost halfway through our race when I started getting hit w/ messages to join the front lines.  Unfortunately, I wasn't about to throw away a race I was leading 18 laps in....

Excellent point Sherb. There may be a couple people out from room 1 tomorrow so delaying your start is a good idea.  Once, I get Room 1 set up I'll invite you to a private chat and let you know what's up.

 

I actually wanted the Factory teams to run the liveries provided.  While I understand that the privateers have their own liveries it would be nice not to have a hodge podge of different looking cars in room 1.  But, I guess I'll just have to accept that part of it.
