Ok so I will make the first move on this (if I can remember what happened)

Race 1: Well I certainly remember this. My first finish of the season, and not a bad score either. Set off higher up the field than I expected running 5th for the first few laps. C.O.Jones then got me with pure speed and disappeared into the distance and over the horizon. I then just maintained a constant speed and scraped home in 6th with just over a second cushioning me from a DTM onslaught!

Race 2: Would have finished higher if I hadn't kept smacking the s/f line! Evil or Very Mad Nevermind, I seemd to make up over a lot of people through sheer and stupid bravery in the bends. Scraped home a lucky 11th after mucking that wonky jump after turn 2 on lap 15 or something.

Great tracks too by the way, my favourites of the season (so far...... Wink)

race 1

Suppose this suited me better of the 2 tracks but still uncomfortable on it. Ran around 2nd-4th all race and slotted in 3rd at the end after some nasty bugs at the end almost let revo catch me.

race 2

Usually I'm a slow starter but got off to a flier and was a half second clear halfway round the first lap. Next 15 laps were spent in the barriers as every time it looked like I'd got a rhythym going I'd bugger it up. Had a clean final 10 laps but lost wayyyy too much earlier to catch the moldo/revo battle for 2nd. 4th was an ok result though.

Noticed I'm scoring 2 less points each week

I found the tracks last Tuesday were excellent but, for me at least, pretty difficult to get around quickly.

In the first race I had a poor start as usual and had to climb through the field once I had a better feel for how the corners linked together. I was racing quite closely with Jawz until he fell off on the roof, but the end of the race was the toughest. Beechy was quicker and wanted to come past; I was fortunate that he kept scraping the magnetic walls Fluff seems to have!

I decided I'd make an exception to the rule this season and GP a track at least loosely based on a real circuit because in Road America I saw the potential for high speeds and near misses. I thought it GPed quite well really. The layout came across as challenging when I was checking it over pre-season, and I didn't get as much practise as I'd have liked on the night due to doing some of the console work. The highlight here was racing wheel-to-wheel (or maybe closer than that without collision detection) with Dan for the last 5 to 10 laps. It was an epic fight out on track and I'm still kicking myself for the mistakes I made that sealed Dan's 9th place finish (in terms of actual race position), but I haven't had a race like that for a long time.

Race 5

Had a bad start and fell behind a while, then caught up to middle of field, towards the end i saw Matt and set my sights on his place, kept catching but i rubbed on the penultimate lap and saw him vanish into the distance.

Race 6

Tough track over many laps, but as fast as i expected, Had a great Battle with cheese towards the end, like he says, was a great race for position, but in the end my marvelous breast horn milked the lead!!

Race 5 - i loved the track and was actually able to drive sections of it it alot faster than others of my calibare, but i think in general i was going faster than what i was used too, and as a result kept hitting walls and mistiming corners...O.o

race 5 ! .. started off in 6th or 5th one of the two but kept crashing which was really fustrating so i ended up in 10th/11th most of race had some good speed together was catching the likes of miksu bonbo matt dan but couldnt keep it consistant .. ahd a great race with cheese had more speed than him but he kept i together and beat me in the end well done mate 11th in the end !

race 6 ! .. started off in more or less the same position , had a lonely race in 6th for basically the whole race but noticed for some reason i had more pace than jones and was catching up about a second on lap on him but every time i got close i managed to rub a wall some where ! finished 6th in the end !

was surprised i managed to race a better position in the second race than the first one .. didnt have anything going for me on road to america in pratice so really happy with the 20 points on that one good races all cant wait for next tuesday Very Happy

R5 Got a decent start, after a few laps got in a comforable position wich got me right between the leaders and the followers with a 15 sec. gap each side. Then tryed to be consistant and finish.

R6 Didnt got the track down, always struggling for the right line. Kept making mistakes. One point i got into racing Dantski a few laps. but then rammed the chicane three times in a row wich made me fall back a lot. At the end struggling to get a hold on my lead to Beech.

Ended both races 5th. Wich I'm verry happy for to score good points for the team.
