1st race: Very nice track Bat
Had the same problem that retoon had, couldn't make the jump, so had to go around again. I was 14th all of a sudden The rest of the race was just getting back. In those 20+ laps got back to 4th, I was hoping for a few more laps cause I couldve gotten you Voices
Dam, if only I didn't mess up at the start, I know I couldve won this
2nd: I agree with Jawz
too small, too flat, too many ppl...poles and right angles, no rythym could get going.
I remember crashing (once again) in lap 22 and just wishing it was over. I think in those last few laps Dodgy and Mad passed me, I just didnt try anything anymore. |

When I was practising Hospital, the track frustrated me, but once I was in the race I didn't notice the flatness and the poles and quite enjoyed it. I think it's the difference between racing against the clock and racing against other people. It was a tight, technical circuit where you're constantly inches away from hitting something, and that makes for good racing imho. |

1st race
in practice this was my best track had a nice steady flow, decided to miss the second jump to the finish line and take the flat route, nothing could go wrong.
then when the race started first lap over the first jump not enough speed on the exit turtled onto the track below utter dismay.
restarted about a lap down got a nice rhythm going only to fall off same place on lap 23 gutted.
2nd race
just could'nt get a nice flow to this one, have one good lap and five bad ones.
not good when racing people of your standard, three laps down when you had all finished.
i think this is the only one i have finished though. |

First race: Well, started off as badly as it could - fell off on the first jump and turtled. Restarted and had a trotally uneventful race. was racing with DaCheese after he restarted for a while, then he dissapeared again... Ended up in 6th after restarting, and was very fortunate that the guys in charge had decided that people who fall off on the very first lap are allowed to restart. Didn't change the team points at all, with Maserati finishing 5th 6th and 7th, but I did kinda tak a point away from retoon in the driver standings (sorry!)
Second race: Well normally a flat technical track would suit me, but I think I only managed 6 clean laps in the whole race, with at least 4 cases of having to reverse to get out of a wall Not happy with Putsku stealing my position on the last corner either :'( _________________
