Race 2 is always a chance to redeem the misfortunes of race 1, as I found after my race 1 disco.

Yeah need some animosity between the leaders since the only way us mere mortals are going to win against them is if they take each other out!  I mean there are no way we can match Phil's 1:26.095 lap-time  :'(

Joe's lap-times were better than mines in both races... maybe your pointing the wrong finger at the wrong people ;)

Sorry RussG, at the time I did not know who crashed into me, I would not have overtaken you on the last lap if I knew!

Otherwise it was a solid team performance for Maki Engineering, well driven Freezer.  And at least I caused KNR Racing to loose some points by messing with RussG's race  ;D

Hey Mael,
Don't worry about the pass on the last lap. It was a good pass and we went door to door for a few turns which was great fun.
I had other things going on that affected my races more.

I'm sure promise I will mess with your race sometime ... Bahahahahahah  ;D

Ditto.

I thought the main advantage of the multi race sprint format was t9 let you have a second go of 1 race is a shocker. Id prefer single longer races myself but assumed many like the sprint format for mostly this purpose.  ;)

I do see though how if you get wrecked and damaged out of race early kit may be a hassle to hang around and wait for race 2 so probably this really isnt the advantage of sprint races as I suspected.

Still I normally finish races unless I hav a pc crash or disco so even though I may be out of it race 1 I get another go race 2 without needing to sit around and wait doing nothing.

One thing I like about the sprint format is that it bunches up the field again.
