My Best Season-Gp so far 
though there's not much to say , I hardly made any mistakes - I'm just too slow and not "powersliding-skilled" enough to race against the real elite in front of me.
1st race:
had a nice start , managed not to respawn a single time and stayed off the walls except of three or five times. If Reh had finished, there'd have been a nice little fight although I managed to keep the gap the first 10 laps.
finished 5th 
2nd race:
nice start again , stayed 5th all the time. After Bboys unfortunate invalid time got 4th which makes my results of today look greater than they even are.
respawned at the very last CP in front of the finish but had had enough gap to stay 4th fortunately  .
grats to Steve and Grndl for the wins, good game all |

1st race: about 1s per lap slower than leaders, no crashes really and only hit the wall a few times.
2nd race: I think consistency won me that race, I crashed on lap 13 though which I thought lost me the race but mistakes by others gave me the position back in the last half of the race.
overall: fun tracks which both flowed very well, I just wish there were much more tracks like these on the Pro server.
good racing by all tonight. |

at least I can upload Weight to Pro, the cut track Bandana had better hold for a refit.

great racing very high standard tonight.
Sorry to kick LabRat m8 but it's been chewed over before and it's a closed server for the Team Championship.

race 1
started of alright then a couple of bangs on the wall dropped me right down to about 16 place was having a tussle with spanky and bunsen, then another wall rub left me racing on my own for about ten laps started to gain on spanky again probably about a second back then he had a accident on the third to last corner, this was my chance to gain another place but with the over excitement i crashed as well never mind its only a game. 
race 2
started of ok on this track got settled right in went into the gp trance left right over the jumps pretty consistent, then dan appeared the trance went mistakes crept in heart was pounding. dont know how many laps we were together probably about 12 but wow what a race we had, we was changing places every lap really tense racing, youd have thought we was racing for the top spot but was a lowly fourteenth, great racing dan 
finished up in twelfth think this was due to jawz misfortune
great racing all |

Race 1 ... my fisrt show of the season, so didn't expect much. Came in about 11th ... Can't recall, it was so mediocre.
Race 2 ... had a better feeling about this one. Got off to a dreadful start and was about 18th by lap 3. Managed to claw my way back when I found the sweet accelerating parts (not much praccy time sadly). I reached 7th by lap 19 and was having some nice battles with pep and my team-mates, then got Nadeoed in the nuts with one of those landings that makes you do a twangy backwards 180 somersault and land on the helmet. After that I was ultra cautious on the remaining 5 jumps and lost loadfs of places. Reading the other posts it seems I wasn't alone in being laid low by this annoying bug(?), so I suppose all things are even. |

I'm confused
Which were the two tracks called + Which was first?
Which race does that screenshot belong to? 1st/2nd + name would be nice
Does anyone have the screenshot to the other track?

| The two tracks were called Weight and Bandana, Bandana was the second track and the screens are the results to this one. I think pepper took screens of the first track (Weight) so we're just waiting for them |

Race 1: kept ahead for about half the race, Steve close behind ( at one point i crashed and he overtook me for a lap) but on about lap 15 or 16, i touch off the side part of the track and flipped up randomly, had to respawn and lost about 16 seconds. Spent the rest of the race playing catch up. overtaking grndl and closing in on the 2 steves, but i had no time... so got 3rd by 8 seconds....
Race 2: invalid time

| So someone else gets the frozen screen? I thought it was just me. Then it's either a red time (if I'm lucky) or TM stops and Vista gives me a message saying my graphics card stopped working. |
