Lets talk some racing! Oh the grand valley, where dreams are made, shattered, sliding in dirt, in front of all the grandeur that is grand valley, where tires shred in the SCP cars faster than anything I've ever seen! Seriously, I'm not sure if I'm gonna race, but practicing this track, I see that the tires don't like the road. Reminds me of Sachsenring with the shelbys. Who knows how it is going to be with the grand am's and group C. at least with group c, I'll have some downforce.   |

Server is set with Grand Valley, happy testing guys!! @ Ucrdoh racing the SCP cars at Grand Valley is a blast, with any type of car heading towards the tunnel with the slick dirt can be scary, use some extra caution.  Smoke did a fantastic job with this track, also take a few slow laps around the track and enjoy all the great scenery. |

The tires shred quickly at first, but even out by lap 11. They don't go orange or red as I feared they would. I remember how to deal with the dirt from the three shelby races at grand valley east. Should be fun for sure. |

Well, I haven't done much for practicing or for that matter racing online, but if someone would like to take a quick spin later during the week at least we can get a bench mark time for everyone.. If anyone's up for a quick 30 minutes practice session let me know, and I'll find the time to get online. |

Subtract a few less seconds to that time.. Slight chance I may miss this weeks race. I've been invited by a couple of my buddies to go attend a race at one of our local tracks in the area. Depends on the weather thou. |

Was really hoping to make this one, but it looks like I'll be at Pocono.
I've gotten a best lap of a 5.2 in a Ferrari, and a 6.5 in a Porsche. From what I've run online a lot of time can be lost if you dont hit the sweepers after the first turn just right, most notably the second left hander down toward the hairpin.
For this, I'm in fourth all the way to the hairpin. On the Right handed sweep i hug the line and let off the gas toward the end, avoiding the bump as the track goes down hill.
