Practice 2 was much drier and more indicative of what we expected qualifying and the race to be, so we fitted the regulation Toyo R888R tyres and did some qualifying simulation laps to see how we stacked up.
Last years Class B Pole time was a 2:02.604, so we needed to be in that ballpark. On the Racelogic VBOX HD2 OLED display I could see that my best time was a 2:04.98, so not far off where we needed to be. I came in the pits for a check the pressures and temperatures, and we found the rear tyres had heated up a lot more than we expected, so the pressures were higher than ideal. A quick bleed down and I went back out to improve my time to a 2:04.47 and did a 2:04.58 the lap after. Not bad to say I had been on the track for the grand total of an hour! The ideal lap time for that session was a 2:03.70, so I still needed to hook a perfect lap, but that is what we are always aiming for!
