Hi, fellas!
So sorry to have missed the finale at Mexico but I can report now that my computer has come back from the repair shop and seems fit & ready for GPL action in 2025.
Best of the Holiday Season to all!

Hi, fellas!
Sorry to inform but I'll be MIA for this final round. The computer went 'tits up' last Tuesday and it will be some time before I have it fit to run GPL again. Hope to see you all again soon! Have a great race in Mexico!

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - International Gold Cup
A lucky win, to be sure, but I'll still score this one a full 5/5. Only one '64' lap when, in the slipstream of Paul's 12-cylinder Ferrari, I got such a tow that I went off the road briefly in Knickerbrook. I didn't slow down fast enough. Is that proper English? A curious blend of words. Dunno... :)...

My records show that I've used the following GP66 cars at Oulton Park... Brabham BT19 Lotus 33/BRM Lotus 33/Coventry-Climax Eagle T1F/Coventry-Climax As ever, I'm keen to try a car not previously used. Looking hard at the Dino Ferrari. A few laps to pin down the gearing seems to have the baby Ferrar...

Re: Temporada 2025
Hi, Tago. A 9pm CST time translates to 4pm my local time here in Oshawa. CEST would push it to 5pm but of course, we adopt time changes here that pretty much neutralizes the difference.

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 08 - United States Grand Prix
A fine win for Paul in the Honda! Well done, sir! A most fortunate P2 for me as both David and Ricky fell victim to the dreaded 'Loop'. Ostensibly, Tago & Xuggy, too. Just to make it all but one, I stuffed it hard into the barriers there on the last lap pruning off both front corners. Colin was ...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 08 - United States Grand Prix
Oh, WOW! Thanks so much for posting the images of the rock concert at The Glen, Tago. To tell you the story... I was booked to attend a three-day course at The Glen with the Jim Russel Driving School slated for late July, 1973. This was the first time that the school held sessions at The Glen. It ty...

Bumping the start time ahead by one hour? OK here.

Hola, Tago!
I would support a move to Thursday events. Quite frankly, I've been disappointed that we didn't pull more drivers to the Monday races.

The Lotus 43 is my intended ride for the Glen. Can't be a bad choice. It won!

In my post, I neglected to mention how Xuggy was well and truly in the mix up til his unfortunate trip into the sand pit on Lap06. Fighting back, his efforts came to nought with a blown engine. Bad luck there, Xug.

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 07 - Gran Premio d'Italia
That was a real ripper of a race! Very happy to have been able to run with the lead serial and even lead a lap. Qualified pretty well with a time on par with my pre-race trials. My last lap in the run looking really good til I bungled the braking going into the Parabolique to spoil the lap. Started ...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 07 - Gran Premio d'Italia
Hello, Clive... I can't say for sure but I would seriously doubt that the original Papy version and the new '67' model are identical in the track layout. One would also need to compare the track length as displayed in GPLRA and for it to be metre-to-metre exact is a bit of a stretch.

Hola, Tago! My one and only trial thus far with the Cooper at Monza has me down with a best of 1m34.52s so it looks like you and I are in for a fight.
