Which tune is that one Mikey? I'm currently hitting high 1:27s.

paul, its the one you will find in your Inbox this evening. An all new build I worked on Tues and Wednesday.

Ah ok, I look forward to trying it   

Really enjoyed this tonight. It's just a shame that this was a one off for me. That Civic was awesome to drive.

Awesome! The result doesn't show it, but I had a blast in both races!! Too bad my steering wheel did it's reset thing in the middle of the race 2 just as I was in the middle of a great fight with 3 or 4 others, including Paul. I managed to get it back, but dropped back to the group behind and again was fighting with 3 others. Awesome clean fights! I love this series!!   

Watch out A lobby next week Hurricane in the Mazda into the 39's.

Another great nights racing (even if I did get a big shunt in turn 2 in the 1st race). The new tune that Mikey sent was fantastic, had some great racing in race 2 with JRacer until his controller malfunction then a great battle with Hilli. I was all over him in the corners but he just kept hitting the nitro button on that back straight and then a 10ft gap would be 80ft in seconds!!

We did 6 laps around Sedona after and the car feels great around there too.

Broom, use that tune that I sent called Sedona v1. Just be sure to dive low going into turn 2 or the car will hit the wall. I'll sent it again just incase I forgot to send it.

Then again I am happy how things worked out today. Here's how we finished up as a team overall/in Lobby:
A Lobby-
7th/6th- paul299
10th/9th- JRacer NL
11th/11th- SCR3WUGUYZ

B Lobby-
13th/1st- D4RR3N 3579
14th/4th- S1lentRaven
15th/2nd- Flyin Mikey J
16th/3rd- v Hurricane v
17th/6th- Windcharger8199
21st/9th- XB6 Broomzke

We owned B lobby!!

Mutant send me some tunes for sedona and tips after watching me Q this morning.   

Mutant's a good guy. Too bad that TORA Staff pissed him off so much in the LeMons race... but I am glad I talked him into giving TORA a second try.

Its a shame that was a one off for you, and that you couldn't connect and take your proper place in the A Lobby. By the time I worked traffic, you were so far gone I had no hope of seeing your car, let alone catching you.

And I did a stupid... I Q'd last week's tune/build. With the stock trans, that thing was a pig around Sebring. Practicing 1:27s and qualifying a 1:29 was quite embarrassing. But I did have fun chasing down and passing all my Ax4x mates, and that was probably the most cars I have passed in a TORA meeting since my win in the MMTCC race during Winter Heat 2012.

No wonder it seems that I was always racing an Ax4x teammate    That kept me on my toes, as last thing I want to do is wreck any of my mates, so I had to be nicer than usual  

wish I was there

You wouldn't have wanted to be in B lobby during race 1. I managed to take out everyone that got close to me   

^ ... and yet I managed to avoid the spinning Civic. I may I have soiled myself, but I missed you by a whisker.

Speaking of Brown trouser moments I remeber my first Tascar race when Erebus took out Hurricane ( that my job lol) and Hurricane was spinnig wild arcoss the track. Just in front of me and Soundwave just missed him. Also found out yesterday that Erebus uses simulation steering. I thought that was hard so I treid it in the utes and had a few tank slappers. Which I never had before maybe he should not use simulation steering. Just my opinion. Any thougths I may be totaly wrong.

what do you mean?
it all depends on the car and track, yeah, if a car gets sideways it is a little difficult to catch, but most of the time it's fine

39.987 in the Celica

Not having a go at you just not sure if simulation steering way to go. Just wanted some other opinions. It may help or it may hinder but no harm.

I had a wild 39.82 in the Civic.

I managed to mess up my braking and take out Broomzke and then as I spun down the track I collected Hurricane.

OK, I'll play ball on the laptimes. Managed to get three 39.1's in a row. Fastest was a 39.128. Can go full throttle for the full lap, but have to take exactly the right line through turn 2. Even with letting off for the end of turn 2 I get 39.5's. I completely changed the build from Sunset and Sebring.
Will also give it a go with those builds, but they were meant for more downforce, so don't think they will be quicker.

Also tried the Mazda, but could not get it quicker than 40.2.
