Gracias, Xug, thank you!

Toma de contacto con Gaiz ... la pista se aprende más rápido rodando con él
Boreham's contact with Gaiz ... you learn the track faster riding with him

Gaiz con el Vanwall 1:40.s y mi Lancia bajó hasta 1:42,s
Gaiz's Vanwall 1:40.s and my Lancia went down to 1:42,s

Pista preciosa para retomar el contacto con los bólidos del 55: ancha, con espacios que perdonan los errores; de trazada que uno debe afinar vuelta a vuelta; de gestión de frenos para poder así disfrutar de las vistas que este circuito ofrece dentro y fuera de la pista
Beautiful track to get back in touch with the '55 cars: wide, with spaces that forgive mistakes; with a racing line one must polish lap by lap; with enough brake management for one to enjoy the views that this circuit has to offer both on and offtrack

Primeras referencias (setups por defecto):
First references (default setups):
- 1:41.4 Gordini
- 1:40.9 Connaught
- 1:40.5 Vanwall

¡Nos vemos en pista!
See you on track!

It was great to be back on track with PDLR last night.

Sorry I had to leave early. It is a very difficult track to get right for more than one lap!

I was getting some huge "kicks" on the steering but I don't know if it is track related or a sign that my G25 is not long for this world.

[Gaizka]

Buena sesión de entrenos ayer
No conseguí bajar tiempos pero sí encontrar el ritmo para la gestión de frenos en carrera.
Muy útil también el haber podido practicar duelos y paralelos (el último ángulo antes de meta es criminal ) y la gestión de frenos (¡una vez más!) rodando en tráfico.

Nos vemos esta noche en las sesiones de libres

Great training session yesterday
I did not manage to improve my laptimes but I did find a race pace that kept the brakes alright.
It was also very useful to practice being side to side on different parts of the track (the last corner right before the finish line is a killer ) as well as brake management (once again!) in traffic.

See you in tonight's free practice sessions

P.S. Para los que tengan dudas con la elección de coche para esta noche, he aquí un listado según su rendimiento:
P.S. For those of you having doubts on the car choice for tonight, see the ranking below based on performance:
1.- Mercedes W196
2.- Lancia D50
3.- Maserati 250F
4.- Mercedes W196 SL (#1 in pure speed tracks like Avus, Reims, Monza, Tripoli, etc)
5.- Ferrari 555 (same engine than the 625 but lighter chassis)
6.- Ferrari 625
7.- Vanwall (only 4 gears but brake disks)
8.- Connaught (only 4 gears but brake disks)
9.- Gordini (only 4 gears)

I was getting some huge "kicks" on the steering but I don't know if it is track related or a sign that my G25 is not long for this world.

Those "kicks" are normally internet connection related.

Server ready for free training sessions

Drivers welcome

[Clive Loynes]

I was wondering if Gaizka could actually detect any advantage from the disc brakes?
I certainly have never noticed the slightest difference.

Sesiones de entrenos muy animadas ... 7 tiempos y la visita de Quico
Lively training sessions ... 7 times and the visit of Quico

Para hoy se espera una emocionante carrera por la igualdad de tiempos y porque el circuito permite trazadas diferentes, paralelos y rebufos
Today's race is expected to be exciting because of the equal times and because the circuit allows for different lines, parallels and slipstreaming.

Muchas gracias por el setup Clive ... en la última carrera y gracias a rebufos bajé a 1.41.09
Many thanks for the setup Clive ... in the last race and thanks to some slipstreaming I went down to 1.41.09

[Clive Loynes]

You are welcome José, SBRC must stick together! Send me an email if you want to discuss race and qually approach.

Last night was good fun but tonight will be intense. It would help if Gaizka and Paul could take themselves out at T1 again.

I had a good battle with Sergio in the second race, which we didn't settle until half way around the last lap.
The first time that I managed to pass him, it used all of my brakes and that allowed him to come back at me. Good stuff.

[Mezcua]

¡Muchas gracias por volver a organizar el campeonato!

Mi carrera se resume rápido en 3 líneas:

"13m44.770s
Jorge Nieva55 - spotters reporting:
the engine has exploded."

Y a otra cosa, mariposa.

Enhorabuena al podio, vaya ritmo llevaban los dos de adelante... Está claro que será un campeonato para pelear por el tercer puesto del podio, jejeje.



Thank you very much for organizing the championship again!

My race is quickly summed up in 3 lines:

"13m44.770s
Jorge Nieva55 - spotters reporting:
the engine has exploded."

And to another thing, butterfly.

Congratulations to the podium, what a pace the two at the front had... It is clear that it will be a championship to fight for the third place on the podium, hehehehe.

primero que todo, muchas gracias, por la invitación acá a mi vieja liga del PDLR
son muchos años sin poder intentar correr una temporada completa, pero esta vez lo intentare.
una gran carrera, tuve poca practica, pero logre mantener un buen ritmo, una espectacular lucha con tagomago, que solo la linea de meta nos vio pasar con una diferencia de medio segundo, gran trabajo tago, me divertí muchisimo con esa lucha, también estaba clive en ella, y con un sobrepaso un poco arriesgado, que me obligo a abrir el auto para no pegarle, pero tago no me pudo esquivar y nos fuimos al pasto los dos, después a luchar por ese apreciado 3 peldaño del podio, ya que lamentablemente clive le empezó a fallar el motor y no pudo seguir con nosotros esa bonita lucha....
también una gran batalla adelante entre dos monstruos del gpl, felicitaciones señores.
la próxima llego mas entrenado y tratare de pelear mas fuerte aun
long live gpl

first of all, thank you very much, for the invitation here to my old PDLR league
It's been many years without being able to try to run a full season, but this time I'll try.
a great race, I had little practice, but I managed to maintain a good rhythm, a spectacular fight with tagomago, who only saw us pass by the finish line with a difference of half a second, great job tagomago, I had a lot of fun with that fight, I was also I climbed into it, and with a slightly risky pass, which forced me to open the car to avoid hitting him, but Tago could not avoid me and we both went to the grass, later to fight for that hard-pressed 3rd step of the podium, since Unfortunately, Clive's engine began to fail and he could not continue that beautiful fight with us...
Also a great battle ahead between two GPL monsters, congratulations gentlemen.
Next time I'll be more trained and I'll try to fight even harder
