Well, I'll be missing the first TA race (out of town) but I tried out
Kyalami anyway.  What a fun mod and a fun course.  The best lap I
could muster was a flat 15 after about 30 laps of practice.  I'm
guessing the road course gurus will be turning a few seconds faster
than that.

Well,

This arrogant Irishmen cannot comment on the expert setup yet as I have only
used the fast one. With that, I was running in the mid 14's last night. The
winner of this race will not be the fastest but the one who can lap at a
good pace whilst conserving ***. My front tyres were hosed after a 10 lap
run.

Well it took me a while but I've turned some laps now. Best is 13.5 and if I
get enough practice time there's probably .5s still to come. I can't recall
how many laps the race is so I did a 25 lap run. Plenty of fuel and tyres
were still green at the end:
