you would but you want to beat the long lines, that's why I suggested the 08:00 slots. As a bonus (while they wait for the crowd to gather), they let you have 2-3 free runs on the time challenge course before the lines start....remember they only allow 2 timed runs, consecutive runs do not count towards your event ranking.

Yep...so sign up for 08:00, sit for that 5 minute briefing and make a beeline for the performance challenge tent. In our case, they let us have some free runs which did not count towards our 2 timed runs.

18LLC: you're trying to make track notes?

During the hot laps, be sure to keep the car on boost, especially in the first-gear corners, you will experience turbo lag in the tight corners. Also the MZS6 understeers at the limit so you may want to factor that in.

"THIS IS DC METRO FREE TECH SUPPORT, THIS CALL IS BEING RECORDED FOR TRNG PURPOSES, MAY I HELP YOU"

let me see if I remember what I did when i did Davids link

Initially, I went to David's link and couldnt download it unless I register.
After registration and providing, I believe my email address, I was able to download Davids file.

I believe your error msge has something to do with that link provided to you after registration, and that if link doesnt put you thru, you have to manually copy and paste it to the web brower to continue the task.

Once you are able to download Davids file then go to the Dixx site to download the player, once accomplished

... then go back to Davids file and click it and should bring up the player due to association to the file.

hope it works, other that that you may have to PM David and he charges by the hour if Im not mistaken

But its well worth seeing the film of the track run
if you think of doing it too
