The top 5 qualifying times at the moment are:
1.BobZee..... 48.56s
2.Vuko Snr... 48.58s
3.Sloma....... 48.81s
4.Shell........ 48.98s
5.J.B........... 49.85s
Still plenty of time until Tuesday. Will 47's be achievable??

The race should be interesting with the Reverse Grid start & 110% A.I. Any comments!!

[johnny shell]

yeah I'll comment - that race is going to be a bear! unless, that is, the whole field just pulls away from me and I'm left to run my 15 laps in peace!

I wonder how fast the AI is here at 110%?

[tannat]

110% and Back of grid?

I'll probably have a traffic free race

[RALLY TEAM GB]

no 110% sounds very interesting!!!

Vuko Snr taking over the the pole spot from BobZee. Could drivers please put their times on the forum as well as Codies - some people use different names on Codies.

Here are the Qualifying times from last year's race at Hidden Valley:
1.Vuko Snr... 48.33s
2.Vuko Jnr... 48.86s
3.BobZee.... 49.71s
4.Homer...... 51.06s
5.real_ill...... 51.18s

Interesting to see that I equalled my best time from last year. I'm sure that this time will be beaten though - I know I have a few more tenths in me in this year's car. The race was a 12 lapper with Vuko Snr winning in a time of 10m.06s...F/L..49.17s

Remember you must post a qualifying time to be eligible for a handicap in this event.

[Brown, Jon Brow]

If handicapping is going to be based on qualifying, then maybe I won't improve my time

[Neil Adams]

im returning to the series for this one, may just be a one off!

[Peter Vuko]

No!! The handicaps won't be based on qualifying J.B. I will work them out based on performances over the last 4 Rds.
