GREAT !

I really enjoyed the course this rounds. the two laps made me feel more accomplished after even a crappy run.

ESP competitors brought it hard with some seriously good times. I would vote for similarly sized courses in the future ! It brought some good action for the spectators too since the course was both technical and had good fast lines in multiple areas.

agree wholeheartedly with you there.
when even the slower cars finish in less than 60s, it's not as satisfying.

I like the idea of a longer course, hope to see more like it.

Allyuh men get faster than SS times... I say alot was due to the course drying out.... the later you run the faster you were getting...

Real strategy with the rain there... nice to see what the civic capable of, Amir hit 60 sec raw time on his race tyres... I'm sure I could hit a 63 and Amir could hit a 58-59 sec run on a totally dry course :)

This course was very technical and it was only those who had the proper technique and de correct line did best times in there respective class.

Yes you could have really made the 63 but next time you go know what uh have to do.

Great course!

Great course!

marshalling really helped to learn the course and also to see where the other drivers were having most difficulty (and also to see what lines Devi taking :D )

lol...i remember devi walking back to the timing tent after his first run and telling us that you have to have balls to go fast around that course cause you need to know where to apply the power...

you should have watch Rudi's lines on his 3rd run. CBH and i were screaming at the start when we saw him hitting every apex!!

I rel enjoyed this course. The lines you had to use for the first turn then the second hairpin really had you thinkin hard if you were on lap or or 2...

I had a fantastic novice time, with a decent time of 71 :P

Yeah, agreed, you can lose it hard on that course. I didn't really put down power for any of the runs. The last run I made I gave it a bit more throttle and dropped from 70's in the wet to 65's on a dryish course.

Honestly, if I used more power in a couple areas, couldve dipped into 60 on street tires. Would love to see this course or similar for BYCC in November !!!!
