Worse than that, our cars are fitted with Dash 2 displays, they have water and oil alarms go off the whole dash flashes black and white that its actually quite off putting. Jamie ignored it for 7 laps at Donington Park and a lap at Snett. We are looking at the data now.

Well my services aren't very costly and i'll promise to watch the gauges closely..... :thumbs:
Just lack a bit of talent but don't let a little thing like that get in the way....
I'll wait for your call :whistle:

Nathan has an Aim dash in his, It is growing on me, particularly the live lap times etc, but there is a lot of data on those digi dashes to take in during a race where you may get 1-2 secs a lap to look down and I still dont think you can beat gauges for a quick status update.
If I was hiring out race cars I would simply install a big red light on the dashboard that lit when oil temp / water temps / oil pressure hit certain values.
I would then have an agreement with the driver that when that when the light comes on they stop immediately or foot the bill if they decide to carry on racing.
Then again, Nathan seems to be able to to recall precise oil temps on a per lap basis so maybe I just have no spare capacity in racing mode..

I was quicker at Spa :whistle:
Truth be told there is nothing in it, our race lap speeds are pretty much the same, and Snetterton is one of my favourite tracks.
I am better looking though :birdman:
Tell you what thoug Shimmy, having seen your Spa times, its criminal if you dont get yourself in a race car next year

I just take longer to learn circuits, I was quicker at Donny :blalalala:
More likely that I just have more to lose if it explodes so tend to look at oil and water temps a bit more :whistle:

Well that didn't work quote right!!!!!
You're meaant to be slagging each other off. Bugger.
Spa was ace for me this year. High point of my TD 'career' so far and posting a few times in the 2m54s was good. Unfortunately downhil ever since
I reckon Curly in front or behind and a fresh set of Cups helped.
My brother has just signed up for the Caterham Academy next season so I am extra miffed that I can't afford a season next year.

I set myself the very achievable goal of getting my licence + 1 sig this year, dont worry about doing a season, just set yourself that goal - this racing malarky just seems to snowball, we have BIG plans for 2010 :thumbs:
All I have to do is find a way of being able to access our savings without the wifes approval and I am sorted :whistle:
ETA - Massive thread hijackOriginally posted by _Nathan_ View PostGet yer license Shim, you never know how it'll pan out and I guess we could do some 3 driver action in the 2 hour races next year, 40 mins each
