Theres 2 straights at the ring, 1 has a slight kink mind.
I'm game, as long as we can use RS's

Let him use the RS's if he wants? surely they'll burn up after half a lap anyway?
If you can do 2 laps on RH - I think you could beat someone on RS anyway... that has to pit each lap.
- I'm up for the ring GT500 race.

I could probably do that but not for 60 minutes. Especially if we're starting at 9pm. 8pm and you've got a winner - Top Gear is just repeats now anyway.
Was good racing Sausage and co in Cunningham's touring car races the other day I would have had a chance for 1st if I didn't keep pushing too hard and making silly mistakes  Didn't appreciate being accused of purposefully ramming Cunningham's mate off the track though - he needs to watch his mouth and tone it down a bit.
Either way, pitting was crucial as my tyres were below a quarter left at the end of 15 laps without pitting

im pretty sure i did some testing a couple of patches ago and i got these results
RH, RM and RS all have the same wear propperties (or fractionally different) but RS's are much gripper than RH & RM meaning they are the tyre of choice.

Yeh don't worry I don't think he is very good and won't be getting invited again mate.
Very good racing with boost on low people don't drop out after a spin as a lap later and you have caught them back up and positions change alot with very clean drivers not hitting the back as they go into corners

Cool, I didn't think he was doing that well myself either tbh. Did wonder how I managed to catch up after a big off and then be challenging for 1st again Didn't realise the boost was on - I was thinking I was lapping faster than Sausage  Deception.

i didnt realise it was on allso but had my suspicions .. you were catching me on old tyres and i was on quite fresh ones as i had pitted ... cant say i like boost .. you get the lead then cant make any progress then on. .. was fun tho but i assume cunninghams mate was in the other red alfa? .. cvnt started to block me delibrately at one point

RH's last a little longer than the RS's but on such a long track they kinda run out half way round the track then become undrivable.. probably best to stick with RS's and just get the fast laps in and change ever 2 laps.

Hadn't realised you pitted  That would explain why you and Cunningham were still battling it out and I was struggling to keep up
Yeah that was the guy, I had just hit the grass so had dirty tyres, slid into the guy which then knocked him off, apparently that means I'm a dirty driver
