Thank you my friend!

Hey this is a reminder for everyone to keep practicing in their spare time.  The race is just over 3 weeks away.  Everyone should also make sure to send me a Friend Request if we're not already pals :P

If they are interested, are racers from the TPRA welcome to participate in this Enduro? If so I'll ask if Kartracer and some others would like to join in. I'm thinking that I'd like to run, too.

We Tuna are like the Swiss; we love chocolate and clocks.  And anyone is always allowed to play.

Yes they are welcome.  and Swerv, good to see you over here!  2 spots are available but you know how it goes; someone (or 2) will probably not show up so we should be able to accommodate more people no problem.

Finally managed to get some laps in the Z06 ....

As long as I hit the bus stop the way I should:
Fast Lap: 1:43.9
Avg Lap: 1:44.2 -- 1:44.6
Lap 11 Time: 1:46.1 (Green at first marker- red at second -- screwed the bus stop = screwed my time)
Top Speed (front straight): 193
Tire wear: Even, except for a tad more on RR .... end lap11 = 1/4 wear, but getting real slick exiting corners.
Brake marker change: Around lap 8

Theres more to be had outta this Vette ....Another hour of tuning, and I'll be ready.   8)

General reminder that this race is coming up fast!  Less than one week till go time fellas!

I've decided on a lap count of lap count of 67.  That should put the race length right around 2 hours.

As another reminder be sure to check your tire longevity!  After the latest GT5 update the tire wear has changed drastically and I've found you can go much further on a set of tires than before.  :o

Indeed. Anyone want to turn some race laps I'm in. PSN PM and lets go. I see my 1'45's will be off pace and I need to find some time.


Also, a big yes this race is this coming Friday.  8)

My car handled the same as before, though I suppose it could vary a bit depending on how much downforce you're using.
