Me, qler and juan drove around some just a while ago. This for sure is very different to melbourne!

I managed to get in one exellent lap, mediumish fuel, at 1.33.317 . 32s should not be a problem with a better setup

Well up to now, 1st night, long time didnt race on that track, i did 1:36.XXX, but on full race setting, with 18laps of fuel for the practice. Im still having the same prolem on 2 blind curve, trough years, i never like those 2 curves, and still same today

. Still place for improvement.

Doing 31,4 but its quite hard to get a clean lap in here. Setup is not optimized either yet so i think i can knock off a few more tenths.

Hi guys.

Long time no see. I check the forums every now and then and I can't help being envious on you guys. I really miss racing with you! My guts really want to race but I can't find a time to do it.

To comment on Flow's statement: Flow I have, or at least had, some problems with one or two tracks regarding setups and driving style. My major problem was always Albert Park. I dunno why but I just can't get it right there no matter how much I practice. Ok, I get descent times, like top 5 I believe, but never on the top. We can't be good at all tracks and I know NA (Except for Brad of course) have problems with Sepang. But try to get a reasonable setup and make it to the finish line and everything will be just fine. Score some points.

Ok, take care all.

Yeah Kaaly. nice to hear from you by the way. My fight will be to get the finish line in top 3, but im pretty confident. I hate that track, but up to now, i only did practice race setup. 2 blind corner are killing my rytme, braking too soon or too late. I found a reference for one of blind curve, but the other one, i cant have reference on braking point, but im starting to feel the curve, and its getting better, but alot of practice will be needed.

I only did 2-3 laps on qualif setup, and manage to get a 1:33.2XX.

Track is wide, alot of place to pass a driver, so i will concentrate more on race setting. I expect qualif in top 4 i think.
