I just ran three 3.19's in a row at Spa (the lowest a 19.13 - aaargh.) This is the first time I've ever been in the ***s. Somebody say hooray. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Hurrah! I'll through a party in your honour as I too have been cracking into the sub 20 mark at spa. Managed to hit 3:19.xx in the Lotus but found it going nowwhere fast after that. Had a wee chat with that chap Huttu on VROC as I was using his setups & took his advice & shifted to the Eagle using his & Wolfie's setups (tried the setup that Prydden set the new WR with but found it a bit tricky). Low & behold the 3:18's were hit without chaging style too much from the way I drove the Lotus. Best bit was found using wide lines into Masta & all corners on the return corners at the end of the lap, that knocked my down to the 3:17's. Still 4-5 secs to go though :-( Best I'll get I think is a 3:15 if I can string together a perfect lap. Achievement of the week though was finally getting through Masta with a minimum speed of 180mph (maybe about .5s at 179mph but doesn't sound as good ;-) ). Try studying Prydden's replays to see the wide line he & others take into the important corners, they help a lot. Cheers Colin
This week I broke 3:21 for the 1st time after switching to Rick Prydden's 3:12 Eagle setup. At long last a sub-3:20 is in my sights, but I'm still .7s off! Well done :-) Andrew McP
