Qualification is done. Each car was driven for 75 seconds and the last lap was able to be completed after this time. All cars got enough time to do their best lap.
Green lane was used, I was the driver and Race Coordinator was used for the timing software. I used a Difalco DD304 controller with my custom chip. Track power was at 10.2 volts, the standard voltage here (plenty of power for this track, believe me!). Qualification order was randomly chosen by Race Coordinator. All tires were swiped before each run.
#61 stopped during the first lap. Windows and cockpit were unglued and were blocking the rear tires. Hot glue did the trick.
#28 never started its run. I had to reattach one of the lead wires that broke at the guide.
#70 had a broken rear wing support, it was reglued.
#19 was retired, like the constructor asked to. #33 was nowhere to be found. Is it still running?
There are some very good cars in this group. Also some cars that are less fun to drive. My track is pretty technical and rewards cars with good handling. Raw speed with less handling is probably more of a disadvantage on this track.
Here are the results for Circuit Courville. The race will take place next week, with groups of 4 cars going against each other, starting with the slowest cars and finishing with the fastest cars.
