Hello everyone. I've never raced at Virginia international raceway before. Any idea what a quick lap time is around the north circuit yet or any benchmark times set yet?

It seems low 1.30s are the average right now.. Sweaty Braders is in to the 1.28s though

I've been much the same Stug, track time is limited there and being a new track I've struggled to adapt to it (is that my age showing?)
As Earni says, anything in the 1:30's is pretty much where the majority are. Some have dipped below it, whilst some can't break the 1:31 barrier yet.
It's a tough track to be consistent at that's for sure.

Yeah I've only ever done around ten laps but alot of the corners are quite slow and technical I've found gonna give it another go later me thinks

It's not your age Nothelle, it's just a tough track. I feel like there will be a lot of swearing and off-road adventures this Friday.

My boy is consistently quicker than me round here, first time that's happened, get me to a track I am more familar with and the advantage swings back my way A top ten or two will be more than ample for me here

Narrow, twisty track plus the elevation changes and loads of runoff....

Agreed, any mistakes on that final corner too and there's no coming back from that one!
It'll be a tough set of races for sure
Stug, do you think there's more to be gained from that car? How are the others doing with the Chevy?

Well. As I'm working away in Scotland this week, I won't have a single practice lap so I'll be flying blind on Friday. Expect carnage

30.6 is quickest time so far now so I'm pleased with that as I said earlier I thought there was an extra second.
