Race 11 : Started miserably but claimed 15th place ~ lap 5 as the first constant. Then I was beginning to find my way on the track and got up to ~10th position were I was fighting Munkhi and Bob for 8th. Around lap 22 I could pass both of them and got about 2 seconds in front...however in the 3rd to last corner Munkhi rewarded his effort in the past laps and passed me and I couldnt come back in that time...9th I think.
Race 12 : It was easier to get in this race than in the last, got around 10th position early and managed to claim 8th with about 3 seconds advance shortly after. Anyway, it came to racing Munkhi again and this time I could beat him in the last lap .

race 11
started really badly clipped a corner down to 27th started getting a flow then lap 3 turtled kept momentum and righted myself, still down in 27th, started to get into it, and silly mistakes, finally got settled and catching people up andsome came and went then a few more, finally caught up with the likes of cheese and someone else, cheese was struggling on one of the corners so took advantage of that, finally ended up behind jawz i think then a mistake from him and landed up 12th get in there
race 12
nice flowing track with plenty of places for a hiccup, about the 3rd corner looked at where i was 21st, where did everybody go
got locked in battle with midden and friday, midden made a cock up started pulling away 3 secs in front nice cushion, then a cock up from me and he was back in front he was well clear after a few laps pulling away, just maintained position, then caught midden on the last lap, must have had a crash only for him to get me on the final lap and final corner  |

R11: Was a bit late so I didn't had that much time to learn the tracks. But anyhow got away a bit struggling in the first few laps but from then on kept on gaining places up till 2nd, then second to last lap had a bug wich killed my pace and my lead on dantski, so finished 3rd.
R12: Got away decent and had some great fights with Lavalle and Reh. Almost lost it at one point but bounced back on track. Finished 3rd. _________________ “I was doing fine till mid corner, then I ran out of talent and spun the car.” |

R11: Crashed in warmup, forgot it was warmup though and was hoping for a restart
Really struggled on this track, the last 2 corners I found unslideable after numerous attempts and crashes. Quite a few other knocks meant I changed position from 4th to 9th regularly. Eventually started getting some cleaner laps going and made my way upto 3rd only a few seconds behind Jones. I wasn't going to catch him but he crashed on the penultimate lap and slotted in a second or so behind me. Held my nerve last lap to get 2nd.
Very pleased with 2nd, a very scruffy race.
R12: Ahh just like the good ol days. Had a solid first 15 laps and was totally alone in 2nd nowhere near Sabre but way ahead of 3rd. Started making more mistakes in the last 10 laps but I'd gotten enough of a gap that it didn't matter.
Same place as 1st race but much happier _________________ It's not the winning, its the taking apart |
