    The only difference in the m car is I'm back to 2nd for the tight t9 as I get better exit onto the small straigh than I do in 3rd. But I have some more rpm and 3.62 diff. When I had STD 3.23 diff I done most of the corners at the top of the circut in 2nd

    1.46.xx is good time hell I could only get 1.43.xx but car had shit brakes and due to einstien changing front sway bar before the reAr one car was captain understeer with a capital C.

    Winton is my mayjor bogie track. For some reason I cannot get under 1.40flat and on other circuts I'm faster than cars that run in the 1.38.xx arond winton. Maybe my driving style is shit for this track or my car has a phobia against it or something

    re 4th in T5/6.. is that for more speed than 3rd (duh?) or lower revs. I think I need a bit more practice or bravery for 4th for more speed through 5/6!
    In an E30 Racing Car you're already traveling fast in 4th at the entry to the T5 Sweeper; being in 4th let's you brake on the way in without shifting down a gear; it also means you can get on the throttle part way through and still have some revs to use. In 3rd it's just too twitchy.

    I have been told by many driver Winton rewards agresive driving. (Like not crazy, but hard brakes, accelerate turn etc). Where as PI rewards a smooth driver and Sandown is a combination.
