Thanks Bruce. Had great fun as usual. Not sure what the other cars were like but it sure seemed easy to pinch a rear brake with the changing fuel load. Very sorry to see you facing the wrong way on pit exit threre but had to press on to prevent another RPO win. Bradbury would be proud.

Sorry for any confusion, I forgot what "All flag" meant on the server, hence the 11 lap race with the safety car out.
I had a ball, I didn't realise I had lost a lap with my leap over the fence at the end of the straight and going through the pits.

Thought of the irony of Steve saying "You have got this in bag Bruce" for me to loose concentration and and clip a tyre! haha made it more interesting. I hope to see if i drove better when I put that pressure on myself.

It was bad luck about GW problems, rFactor does have it's little problems and is always disappointing when it happens on race ngiht.

Thanks for a great night of racing guys.

Congrats Humper on the win, bad luck Bruce.... it seemed you had it in the bag, i was watching the gaps as i chased you and Humper down, you must have been cutting great laps when i said you had it in the bag as i wasn't catching up much.

Pity that the opening in the pit wall at the end of the straight caught both GW and me out... The straight sucks you in because it is so long and you are traveling  at such a high speed, a quick glance at the HUD or flag warnings can end in trouble.

It sounded like Speedy, BJ and Glenn were having fun, can't wait for next week...
Cheers

Steve

Still not sure what happened there. Went off at the end of that straight and hit a pole. Tried backing up and then either hit another pole or fell in a ditch. Then the game just locked up. When I went to view the replay to see what happened I was cruising thru the esses on the other side of the track just behind BJ,(which in itself was wierd cos I dont remember seeing BJ on track all night), when I suddenly went back to the pits, so not sure if I was already disconnected when I had my off.
Anyway was great fun, enjoy driving these cars and great track selection for them.

So, good racing again last night, must get rfactor setup and working to my advantage. Love the tracks you have picked so far flatty. Takes a few laps to fall into the groove of these cars but once you do tgey are fun to drive. Good to see humper taking out a win and well done rpo on race one. The rest of us need more practise.....

Thanks Glen, so far the 2 tracks have been my favourites, probably why they fall into that category is "a few laps" and away you go... next week may take a little longer but I hope that too gives some close, easy fun races.  Riverside saw some bumper to bumper, or side to side racing.
