I wonder why the first group was so much faster than the second group, as a whole I mean? I get they were the top finishers from round 1, but it looks like they were all consistently faster around this track, by a few seconds!
Brands Hatch is very short and technical. While I qualified 8th for Automation track, my 11th in warm-up is indicative that I'll be slipping in the rankings. I tuned my entry (somewhat) for Green Hell, which is going to make my particular entry suffer this time around.
Not sure how indicative this will be overall, since this is just training, but here's a few movement figures when comparing Race 1 Qualifying to the training session that just happened.
Killdrop dropped 6 spots. TheBobWiley jumped 5 upward. I went down 3. Tycondero went up 4. Mer_at up 3. Mattmr2 up 4.
But again, big difference between training and qualifying.
I was actually referring to the first group around Brands Hatch compared with the second group around Brands Hatch in this weeks training session, not comparing AutomationTT with Brands Hatch results.
EDIT: Oh, and qualified 29th! WooT!!
