[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]1. New season starts now. How high are you setting your expectations?[/font]
Consistency will be my ultimate goal again this season.  Finishing in the top 5 always makes me happy, and hey, maybe I can get lucky again this season and pull out a win somewhere!  

[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]2. We have moved to follow the official schedule - do you like the tracks we will visit this year? Which is your favourite?[/font]
I think it is a decent mix of tracks and should be fun.  I am not looking forward to this race particularly, I struggle for pace around Sebring, but it is fun to drive at least.  Except sunset bend.  It can **** right off :lol: .  My favorite might be Interlagos this season, I have really come to enjoy it the last few years, I used to hate it! (probably because I sucked at it!)

[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]3. Will you be racing any other series (PRL, Official, etc.) this season?[/font]
I might hop into some official Pro Mazda races this season (mostly for practice) but can't really dedicate a lot of time to that.  Looking forward to another fun season with you guys!

Hi,

1. New season starts now. How high are you setting your expectations?
Seem that I ran with faulty pedals for half the season (broken srping), so I expect to run in the front...

2. We have moved to follow the official schedule - do you like the tracks we will visit this year? Which is your favourite?
All are good, expect the ring
3. Will you be racing any other series (PRL, Official, etc.) this season?

GTE and LMP1

1. Team crash for cash will be challenging for the championship and if someone dares to challenge we will not be scared to crash them for free . JKJK maybe. As for driver's championship I set my sights too high last season so this season i will try the reverse... I aim to finish worst or better. In all honesty hoping for top 3 in drivers and top 2 in team. Main real goal is to not hit Matt. 
2. I like the schedule except Interlogos. I suck there.
3. Endurance events, may join late in Friday series for partial season. And will be trying the Le Mans series. Thinking prototype all the way!

Pre-Race Interview
1. New season, new car. What are your expectations for this season?
Much lower now that we are in a new car!  If I am finishing races without major mistakes, I will be happy.  Having some battles on track will be a plus.  There are many things to get used to in the car, like last night I learned just how much using the weight jacker can affect the car.  

2. We have moved to mirror the official Indy Road schedule, do you like how many ovals we will run?
I think it will be OK, I don't mind the ovals.  This car really is a blast to drive on road courses with high downforce though!

3. Do you race with a single monitor, triples, or VR?
I am but a peasant with my single monitor  .  On road courses it is just fine, I just try to give lots of room.  On ovals I think I suffer more not knowing exactly where cars beside me are.  I am also using a more "correct" FOV now and it has reduced my peripheral vision a bit.  I rely on my spotter lots!

1. New season, new car. What are your expectations for this season?
Hoping top 5 points finish but this season will be very interesting as most of us do not have much time in this car. And the in-car adjustments are very helpful but as I proved last week can be detrimental to a race lol. Def need to make sure the adjustments I am making are the correct one.

2. We have moved to mirror the official Indy Road schedule, do you like how many ovals we will run?
Ovals are enjoyable as the racing is close. It also will bring some more competition to the championship as it will jumble the field with not having someone run away with the series that is really strong with the road courses. I am very excited to run this season but am not expecting the most out of me lol. Main goal, don't wreck Matt, wreck Tyler!

3. Do you race with a single monitor, triples, or VR?
Triples. Probably wont switch to VR because I like to have controls on my wheel and soon an Apex Button Box! If looking for a box it is definitely a thing to look at as the owner is a fellow PRL competitor.

[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]I'm just going to try and finish the race. I'll worry about being fast later (if ever   )[/font]

[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]2. We have moved to mirror the official Indy Road schedule, do you like how many ovals we will run?[/font]
[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]In this car I think anything will be challenging so I'm good with whatever track we run.[/font]

[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]3. Do you race with a single monitor, triples, or VR?[/font]
[font=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Single monitor (Hint - I can't see you if you are next to me!)[/font]
