Nice riding, the bike sounds awesome! Im doing my first 3 days at Portimao early May and will be studying your video / lines :) .....getting butterflies watching this

Thanks bud, you'll love it, crazy track, hopefully the weather is good for you too 💪🏻 don't know what group you're booked in but just take your time, learn the lines.
3 days is plenty to get to grips with it.

nice riding! Do redline tell you your laptimes? I know they stick a transponder on bike to make sure people are in correct groups

[@Focused_Veteran]

Cheers bud, yeah redline give you access to your laptimes, like you say it's used to monitor and manage groups but it's freely available to see how you're doing.

@@shy231__6 you're gonna love it, it was our first time there too, its a circuit that rewards being smooth for sure, and as ballsy as you dare on the brakes!

@@shy231__6 haha enjoy bud, just build into it!

[@juicer404]

what gear do u run on r1 around there

[@Focused_Veteran]

15-42 bud

[@Fraile67241]

Do you consider development 15/42 ideal??? 6 gear does not stretch much. what was your best time in the end? thank you

[@Focused_Veteran]

​@Vicente Arnau could probably go a little lower I guess, depends on your own ability and pace.
I found it works fine though, was only our first visit to the track, managed 1:56s on day 3.
