Well, if I'm awake for this it'll be that I'm STILL awake .. I hope I can, but I'm just not sure.
Sometimes I really really hate my body and brain <sigh>

If you cannot sleep, take a shot or two of brandy and go lie in the bed. Should work.

No, it's not that I cannot sleep. It's that I've just been sleeping TOO much, and with no "schedule" per se. Kinda all over the place really.

 

[Arne Dopudja]

A-ha, so it just doesnt align with the race. Mayba quick nap before the race? I sleep for an hour or two before the race, race, go back to sleep, go to work the next morning.

LOL that'd be nice, but merely napping rarely works for me. i just end up sleeping fully

There is that thing called alarm!

 

[Sven-Arne Andersson]

Sign m up please.

 

[Dennis Phelan]

Here's a "schedule" for ya

 

[Stefan Beemsterboer]

Don't know this track but would like to try it!

Is there a spot free @ grid ?

 

[Dennis Phelan]

 

[Dario Baic]

im gonna have to withdraw

 

[Vaughn Stegeman]

Just now ran my first ever laps on Mont Tremblant. ...
HOLY CRAP MAN!! This circuit is no freakin joke!! .. It's like a paved rally circuit!
I can't believe they actually race(d?) F1 here. Wow.
Helluva circuit. I like it!!
set that fast bump and rebound LOW LOW LOW!!!
you can check out my setup if you like =D ... ... I wouldn't mind input on it either

 

[Justin Swan]

I've gotta bail too, sorry. Seems to be a regular thing lately.

 

[Dennis Phelan]

@Vaughn Stegeman ,
I tried your car= about .5 sec slower than my Alfa
My setup in your Seat= 1 sec slower
Your setup in my Alfa= .4 sec slower than my setup

Anyhow, nothing much soft in this setup

 

[Arunas]

I've never driven this track before. Great track!
Done several laps with default setup and it looks quite stable (as always for me).

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

Yep, in 68 and 70. In 68, 22 cars were enetered and only 6 finished. in 70, 20 started and only 1o finished. So I guess the track was bumpy as heck back then too!

Indy also ran here. 67 and 68 sanctioned by the USAC and again in 2007 under Champ Car sanctioning. From 02-05, Grand Am ran a six hour race here.

 

[Gijs van Elderen]

Sorry Dennis, i have to withdraw. I've still some work to do at home.
I was really looking forward to racing on this track. I like it a lot!

 

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

Just got an SMS from Roy Magnes, saying that he and the plumber works as fast they can, but he thinks it's unlikely that he'll get here in time.

And yes, it sounds like a script from a bad porn movie! ;D

 

[Roy Magnes]

Just got in the door back home. Missed it by minutes by the looks of things.
I have to have the plumber back to the house I'm refurbishing, but I'll let him wait until saturday now

Yikes, what a comeback

While my 3G connection behaved alright, I barely had time to practice - and I paid the price for that. Actually managed to put in a few good laps in P1 & for Quals putting me in P4 but I was lacking consistency. Screwed up T10 in the first lap putting me back a few places, but it was T7 a few laps down when I was a tiny bit too fast, hit the grass, spun out and damaged my suspension & left front tyre as well - tried to make it into pits but the car wasn't that steerable anymore which led to me hitting the wall in T10, damaging the car irreparably and leaving me with my first DNF at RD ever

Here's to hoping for better times - Thursday's internet day. Hopefully. Now back to spectating - there was a fairly nice battle going on between Arne, Arunas and Andreas

Edit: live coverage time!

• Pit stops put a bit of a gap in between the "Triple A" group and pretty much everyone in general
• Ouch, Nelson just hit the wall in the first sector puncturing his tyre, too - it's gonna be a long way back
• Andreas seems to be gaining some time on Arne but still has Arunas lurking a few seconds behind him
• Dennis is slowly getting closer to Blaz, will the remaining ~10 mins be enough?!
• ..Matthias might have finished the race already, by the way - he hasn't been seen by other drivers for quite some time
• Dennis is now within 2 secs of Blaz while P2-P4 are still a few secs apart each. Sadly, Nelson has since been forced to retire from the race
• Both Arne and Andreas have just lost a few seconds while lapping David, but neither having a real advantage, so I guess that's fine
• Andreas is now really close behind Arne now who managed to catch his Chevy just in time after hitting some grass on the hill
• (very likely) final lap!
• Matthias wins!
  
• Arne saves P2 with Andreas going into the last two corners too fast, spinning and finishing in reverse gear!
