Congrats to David for coming second on a good fuel strategy.
I .. ah .. ran out of fuel, despite my best calculations -- that I
thought were very clever -- during the practice session. I'm not sure
whether Neil was lapping me, or whether he'd gone off in a serious
way, but we were having a great dice when my motor died at the end of
the Mulsanne straight. I was faster in a straight line; he was faster
in the corners (going in and coming out). It would have been
interesting if it had continued the rest of the lap.
Bathurst is going to take a lot of practice! No grip in the corners
and the car is bouncing all over the track in the twisty section. I
need a setup guru to come and live at my house for the rest of the
week. (Free beer if you're interested.)
