yoiks and away

Gonna drive for Spector Racing in Season 5 of Virtual Open Wheel Series. Juris B will be my teammate; I raced with him in rFR and it was nice of him to recommend me for the other seat. Looks like it will be a big grid so I don't know yet how fast I will be. But I am very happy to be driving a proper F1 car again, after running different cars the past year or so. The VOWS mod is based on the 2011 F1 season, which I have some experience with. I even won a couple of races with an HRT some years ago.

A server has been opened for preseason testing and now it's time to practice and find a good baseline setup for the car. There will be refueling and a mandatory pitstop during the race, which means I have to figure out stuff like tire wear, brake wear, engine temps, fuel consumption, etc. and form a basic strategy as well. The schedule hasn't been released yet, but most of the track suggestions are circuits I am familiar with so that's good for me.
