Ray,
The one great advantage of qualifiying by hot lap is that we were out before 6PM on last HFAY even though we were 14 people racing. I also find that it's big fun; I recall once getting the pole...

I personally feel that the track is much improved from the first time out; it's now driveable, but it is also noticeably slower than a black RCP. On two wide Ls, I would say it costs you at least 0.3...

From what I tested, it looks like you need a relatively new front tire (I am not sure if there is a lot of difference between PN20 or K30) to get enough steering and very grippy rear tires. I tested...
