    White Line Rule:

    Every chicane with green pavement is cuttable at this track, since it's not noted, are we able to cut entire chicanes?

    The two worse are T5/6 and T9/10 and you can also cut 12/13 if you dare.

    Please do tell. Wink

    If there aren't specific notes, people are expected to keep two wheels on the tarmac. Wink I wish anyone luck that tries to make the T12/13 chicane!! Razz

    I'd love to see someone give it a shot... they're gonna need a lot of rear wing to keep that thing flying straight!

    Dangit Slade, you weren't supposed to bring that up until after the race. The rules don't say anything about cutting green pavement, only grass. We could have had them in a loophole! Laughing

    Guess that means I wont be working on getting the wings perfectly set for smooth level flight.

    Those of you who are reserves, please wait until there is a spot open, then sign up for it properly. People saying "I want a spot" is just going to be ignored. This way, people have an equal opportunity to get into the race, should a drive become available. Smile

    I do not want to be a reserve in this test race, because I'm so incredibly slow. 1.20.2 is a really bad time, and I don't know how I can improve my driving line, since the curbs are a death trap. How do you guys setup your cars? High or low downforce, brake bias etc. Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

    I think I'll be trying 2 stops out but I have a feeling 1 stop will be better. Hards aren't too much slower.
    It is a test race after all indeed.

    Can run mid 15's on super low fuel and softs btw. No cheeky cuts across the green stuff either.
