Was on last night for a quick shot, it did feel pretty good

Night time drive should be excellent, couple of fast sharp corners will be interesting in a race hehe

JohannS · Mar 8, 2023

I'm in, love Suzuka

Jay Clarke 66 · Mar 8, 2023

Me and the Aston are in! Legendary circuit! Tough and beautiful, it has everything. Let’s go !

SwannyUK · Mar 8, 2023

I'll be on the practice server tonight around 20:30gmt

Trox · Mar 8, 2023

I’ll in on around then as well

Nascentes · Mar 8, 2023

In in in! Already missed the last two races, but so far nothing preventing me from racing next Monday. Audi should be good around Suzuka. Tomorrow I may join the practice server.

McFlunch · Mar 8, 2023

I'm in

Suzuka, a track I've never driven.

In the dark.

Lols.

Count me in.

SwannyUK · Mar 9, 2023

O.K Japan - lets be having you!

Slippery track this one. Lap time seems to come from being super smooth with the throttle and maximising exits.

tabletmctablet · Mar 9, 2023

I *should* be online later for some testing, I'm sticking to the Porsche for the last 2 races, I think best strategy for me is to just stick with one car until I know it well, and I've heard it's a hell of a ride when you get it right in Stuttgart's finest....

And apparently the exhaust makes a nice glow in the dark, not that I'll be able to see it unless I manage to do something really very wrong out of a corner.

The Esses after turn one always gets me! Always trying to squeeze a little more power through them than I should, and it slaps you lol, consistent line and time through them is important.

I hope to be online around 20.30 cet...

Just doing myself a livery as well.

I'm tentatively in for this one.
The damned virus caught up to me after 3 years of not even a small flu.

Hopefully will still be able to practice and be there on Monday.

Was there last night and it's a hard one to squeeze time out of. The esses are a constant compromise for the next one.
I caught the end of the server time and the sun was coming up behind the last corner was an amazing sight! Another awesome choice of scenario from @SwannyUK!
