Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 09 - Gran Premio de México

I have my own challenge (which is related). After this season with you all, I still have a few missing times for a 66 Total Rank. And I don't just mean filling in boxes - I want to post some reasonable times. I am just finishing Spa (as we raced on Spa67). I have all times below the target except fo...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 09 - Gran Premio de México

I chose the 2.7l Brabham, not because it's the quickest, but because I tend to crash at Mexico so wanted something nice to drive consistently. Amazingly I qualified on pole with a PB! I saw Paul on a hotlap as quali finished but he binned it in the final corner so I knew he would be challenge. In th...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 08 - United States Grand Prix

What a disappointment this race was for me! Qualified well! Did 3 laps within 2 tenths of my all time PB but still not enough to better Paul! Started well and held my place behind Paul and ahead of Enrique. We ran as a trio for 4 laps and then inexplicably on lap 5 I binned it at the loop! Why? I di...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 07 - Gran Premio d'Italia

I decided to run the Ferrari at this race as it is fastest in my hands and I was expecting it to be the car of choice for all drivers but as it turned out I was lonely in red! Got a decent but unaided time in practice, got off the line quite well and was racing the Honda ahead but I was too nervous ...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 06 - Großer Preis von Deutschland

This is the only one of the original 66 rank tracks at which I have not yet beaten the target time so I wasn't expecting to be that competitive. I was quite surprised to end up 2nd on the grid! I got off the grid well and was actually catching Paul into the first corner but I had no intention of pas...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 05 - Dutch Grand Prix

I visited Valencia some years back for a work conference - what a beautiful city it was and will be again!. We stayed in the old town and walked down the old river bed to the Oceanogràfic València for recreation. I cannot imagine how many peoples lives have been lost - I fear the number will grow - ...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 05 - Dutch Grand Prix

I don't remember what it is, but I think that it helps you to go faster coming out of the corners... Xug, It is the opposite to what you describe. On the diff settings the first number refers to when you are ON Power for example coming out of a corner and the lower the number number the more the ca...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 05 - Dutch Grand Prix

Well tagomago's prediction came true - I was indeed a Bandit - but a slow one! In a little practice for this race I managed, for the first time, to beat the GPLRank standard time so I genuinely wasn't expecting a good performance here. I chose the 2.7DWR Brabham - not the fastest but lovely to drive...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 03 - Grand Prix de France

Como dijo Paul anteriormente (principalmente), una gran carrera. Salí de la línea lo suficientemente bien como para mantenerme con el grupo delantero. Pasé las primeras vueltas corriendo 3º/4º viendo el entretenimiento que se avecinaba mientras Paul y Enrique luchaban. Incluso me relajé a veces para...

Re: 1st PDLR 1966 F1 Season - 03 - Grand Prix de France

I think it's the first time in all these years that we've had a draw like this. If I hadn't hit Enrique and crunched the nose of my car I would definitely have been ahead :D Buscaremos hacer una foto finish viendo la repe y los datos del replay We will look for a photo finish looking at the replay ...
