I missed out on the session I had planned, just got home too late for the EU-session, and will not be able to do the OC-session tomorrow... Will have to let this one go without me, then...

Similar for me. How about a session tomorrow afternoon?

 

[Roy Magnes]

I would need one very early in the morning or on Wednesday in that case, Senad
I think I just will have to leave it this time and move my revenge to next week instead

 

[Erik Tveit]

What kind of car is this?

Doesn't even drive on the road for me...

 

[Sion Williams]

That was pretty fun, most of the stages I forgot how to drive RWD though lol. No DNF's but a lot of CFH's esp. on Rally Poland, car was all over the place and bouncing everywhere!

Last 2 stages found some rhythm had a few big drifts one or two unfortunate slides near the end of Diamond Creek 2 but enjoyed it!

Thanks to all

Sion

 

[Viesturs Priede]

Sounds fun, Senad, are you going to make a session this afternoon then?

 

[Tero Leppanen]

Could not make it yesterday so I´ll join Warren in OC session

 

[Tero Leppanen]

Well that was pretty difficult and still so much fun I wasn´t fast and lost very much time to Warren even when I didn´t do any mistakes Great job Warren. Thanks everyone.

 

[Warren Dawes]

That proved interesting, and actually fun. Roy served us up a rather tricky car which often seemed to have a mind of it's own (especially if you tramped the throttle too hard ).

I expected to have a lonely run in the OC Session, but was surprised to see Tero and Andrew F had joined. Thanks guys, always better to have company.

I think I went ok, hard to tell with this car. At least I kept it clean (ish) most of the time, but was being very careful of that viscious throttle bite.
Maybe I was too conservative, but I really wanted to avoid the red ink this time, after my disasters recently.

Tero seemed to be keeping things clean and tidy too, except for Diamond Creek where I assume he had an "incident".

Thanks Roy, it was certainly different, pity you weren't able to join and get your revenge.

 

[Andrew Fearby]

I downloaded the car, did a small recce and did the event, and then realised I forgot to register, , details!! Was fun though, tried to change the setup out of desperation for some speed. Softening the car helped heaps... except when I drove off the road and when I did an extra lap in Versme!! Yikes.. time for bed.

 

[Warren Dawes]

Lol Andrew, I did that the very first time I ever drove that Stage, practicing for the RDRC last year. I've learned to listen to the notes very carefully there now.

I'll add you to the starting list Andrew, so your efforts aren't in vain.

 

[Senad Subasic]

Sounds fun, Senad, are you going to make a session this afternoon then?

Wasn't going to, but if you need one, let me know the time.

 

[Viesturs Priede]

Wasn't going to, but if you need one, let me know the time.

Well, 18:00 GMT would be nice, I guess. have you done the rally already? Maybe you tell me what time suits you so we can do it together then?

 

[Senad Subasic]

Tuesday, 18:00 GMT EUY created. Haven't done it yet, no time. Might join you, but not sure.

 

[Viesturs Priede]

Thanks, hope you can make it

Viesturs Priede - Viesturs - EUY

 

[Martin Matus]

I might also join EUY since I was occupied yesterday...

 

[Viesturs Priede]

OK, just finished setting up the RBR, hope its gonna work

EDIT: OK, it should be working, even got my latvian co-driver to do this with me He didnt seem happy about it but meh. Just now checked the stages that Im going to drive there, havent done a meter with this car. Gonna be interesting. My arms are really aching so that might be a bit of a problem with the FFB to stay on the road. Hope someone will join me

 

[Martin Matus]

I´ll join EUY, but with no time to setup that car or even race with it.. Well, it won´t be very good.
