I really enjoyed this track when we raced it last year.
It was one of the first times I had to switch to the Mazda because the Abarth understeer was REALY getting under my skin.
This time around we have the little Suzuki that grips, wonder how it will feel
Looking forward to this!

@HF2000 Good to see you’ve put a second (and password-less) practice server online for Jarama. Maybe new names will join the club from there

 

[HF2000]

Yes I saw that there were already a couple of visits.

Hi Guys just to let you knpow I will have to drop out of this race, not because of illness but beacuse my old g25 wheel went and popped a gaskit and didnt make it.
So I had to opt for a cheap wheel with ffb. I know its not going to be as good as a logitek wheel.

I ended up getting a thrustmaster t128 at least I have ok peddles .

Catch you all next week​

I got the advice once from an alien: more throttle, less braking!

Late entry... just registered. Gonna be a busy track with 11 Mazdas, 4 Suzukis and 4 Abarths!

Oh, and I'm taking the new EVO wheelrim for a spin.

 

[Kek700]

Just had a Pog at some of the times, those rotter's in Mazda's here have got some pace. But at least when I looked, us Abarth and Suzuki men ( Hero's ) have a couple of alien in our pack. Thought I was going to be the only idiot in the Abarth.
