I will not be available for Carb Day tomorrow, but I will be online very early on Sunday, making sure everything is in order and running smoothly Thank you Sven, Mike, Richard and Alberto for the practice starts last night, they were very helpful.

does someone know the actual steering-ratios of these cars? i don't mean a guesstimation of turning degrees for the profiler and lock in the setup. proper steering-ratio numbers like for example 18:1. i like to use real settings if data is available.

According to Karl Ludvigsen's book Gurney's Eagles, in 1972 "the Schroeder rack and pinion steering, mounted behind the suspension, provided a 16:1 overall ratio and two turns lock to lock." That'd be 22.5 degrees in garage.

If Jean-louis Petillot is indeed sitting out of tomorrow's race as indicated above, may I take over the #60?

No. You must start in the car you qualified in.
If Jean-Louis does not appear tomorrow, everyone gridded behind him will move up one place, and we will allow the first non-qualifier on the server to start 33rd. Non-qualifiers must have booked a car prior to race day.

I'm at the point now that I just type in the server number instead of refreshing 100 times. The server number and port is in the first post of the race thread and the entry list thread.

They must be doing a practice start. Perhaps it will open up again in a moment.
