Yeah, I heard that, but did not hang around after that.

To be honest, I think its the black/white car that is at fault (I assume TF is the black/purple/green car?). He moved across his 'line' for no real reason. TF was turning in at an appropriate time. Not sure where the other guy was going with that line.

All in all both should of been more generous with room, especially given the track and it funnels into T2.

Does Tim not use his spotter? He would have known the other car was there and should have given more room. IMO he was trying to make up for his bad/slow start and was driving too defensively in order not to lose his position. The other car had a lot more speed by that point and would have easily passed him.

Soon as Tim got it off the line, he was pointing at the corner, when he made contact with John Briggs, John was already nose past him. John was making room for anyone on his left but Tim looks as though he did not give a rats if anyone was on his left. He was going for the corner no matter what. IMHO

Never liked Infineon in the V8 myself, but congrats to anyone who got through to the end. Tough track in that beast.

That is a crazy SOF, especially to get that at a track like Infineon. Watched the 6.45 race from Craig's car, showed how hard a track it is to pass on in that top split. Actually great work to all the OCAU V8 drivers to have the team in 13th spot overall in such a competitive series. Keep it up guys

marty_s13 · 21st August 2012, 7:28 PM

It has that SOF in pretty much all the races I think. Road America was like 4700-800. It's pretty much the same guys every time so it makes sense.

So Krusty, any chance on another SVG setup for this week at PI?

I will work on it, but no promises.. I am stalking him, so if I see him in a practice session I will join and see if he gives one out.. Fingers crossed.

How do I get put on the list for the O-COW league?

Not sure if I can make it but I'd rather be on the list and not make it than turn up and cant join in the fun.

Here is a setup for Phillip Island that is Work In Progress, I have seen it do a 1.34 around the track, The Gizz is down into the 1.32's

That's my setup if anyone cares to try. It'll probably need a bit of work on the front end.

Yep, if there is anyone left that wants to be in the league, let us know your name and one of the admins can add you or send me a PM. So far we have a pretty decent number!
