Dave488 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) BOOK IN ON THE WEBSITE NOW!! This Monday will see the F2s travel to holland for the 2nd time in 2012 to race at lelystad for the 2012 golden helmet championship, LeeK#39 is the defending champion after winning in 2011 at the sexbierum dirt track, im sure he will be trying to retain the championship and the gold stripe, can anyone stop him? book in now to see if it can be you!FORMAT AS FOLLOWS: Each driver will get 5 heats each and the top 24 points scorers will go straight into the Final with the top points scorer on pole. A 'B' Final will be run for everybody else as there will be no Grand Nationals run on the night. (must be over 10 cars to be points scoring) The Final and Heats on the night will carry normal points.

BigAndyW Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 Am I right in thinking this is a very fast track? I got in about 100 laps last night, and hardly had to brake for any coners (though can't remember my times). Any idea what is a good lap time for this track in practise? Looking forward to getting back in to the racing after two weeks out of it. Andy
Mav Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 Going by the F1's last night - yes it is a fast track!! If you don't have to brake, then cars will be almost flat out into the bends and it makes contact often and hard (As was with the ones). My concern with F2's is the cars break easier, and will there be more cars retiring than finishing!?!?!?!?! lol In the ones the lap times were 13.6 best and 14.0 average, not sure how F2 will compare tbh. For those that race - GOOD LUCK
Allan964 Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 Wasn't well on Monday, still not feeling 100% but hope to race. If you hit the kerbs on the outside in the tooz its a bit crazy.
Nezza46 Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 did a bit of praccy on Monday, and my best was a 14.339. not sure whether that's any good though??
spikey167 Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 anyone any ideas why Lelystad wont run smoothly on my puter? all other tracks run smooth with no problem but Lelystad is awfully glitchy!
Allan964 Posted August 24, 2012 Report Posted August 24, 2012 did a bit of praccy on Monday, and my best was a 14.339. not sure whether that's any good though?? I had a quick praccy and didn't get under 14.5, better pull my finger out.
Sparky961 Posted August 25, 2012 Report Posted August 25, 2012 Be embarrassed Allan cos I managed 14.389 in 15 laps lol. car feels like theres alot more to squeeze out though.
BigAndyW Posted August 25, 2012 Report Posted August 25, 2012 Wasn't well on Monday, still not feeling 100% but hope to race. If you hit the kerbs on the outside in the tooz its a bit crazy. Yup, thinking of adding wings to mine for when I go wide.... lol Andy

Sparky961 Posted August 25, 2012 Report Posted August 25, 2012 Managed to get down to a 14.304 now, slowly making progress
Mav Posted August 26, 2012 Report Posted August 26, 2012 Just been in for half an hour and managed a 14.496 - think that was without braking as well. Opening laps are fine, keep within 14.5 - 14.7 but after that the car just pushes on and times go down to 14.9 - 15.1 The humps throw the car around abit and it can catch you out all too easily!!
Dougieford220 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Posted August 26, 2012 did a few laps earlier and got like 14.7 :| lol, but going by last week its about staying on track
