Race 1

Started off well gaining a few positions then started to settle into a nice grove letting the people in front battle it out waiting to pounce on any mistakes. I was keeping wally in check for the most part until a late move sent me off the track and lost seconds to the leading pack which killed any chance of an attack. ( Its all good wally it we all make mistakes from time to time )

Race 2

Was cautious at the start knowing the reverse grid always throws something up on the opening lap but turns out i was a little to cautious and allowed stan to sneak up on the inside. Following the train for a few laps it was good fun! nice close pressure racing, I wasn't as confident with the car the longer the race went on and lost a place to matthew. Pit stops came around, Stan and Matthew ducked into the pits and I followed. They had a second or two lead as we all entered and that proved crucial as on exit I was overtaken by 2 cars. While those two skipped away I was deep in battle mode with marty the car got better and better and ended up doing a 46.0 which surprised me for the last few laps i was glued to marty's rear bumper but couldnt pass it was great racing even though I couldnt get the extra spot.

Finally I had a semi-decent weekend!! no weird accidents or glitches this time which has plagued my season hopefully I can end the season strong and have some sort of an impact on this championship.

ok so I tried again tonight on the xgnImola track and again I lost power, I then ran some laps on the normal Imola track and I didnt lose power.. :-\

A bit of an interesting night, started off pretty well in both races but I had a kers problem and the battery didnt want to recharge which meant down the straights I would lose power... Bit of a weird one I still managed some points but with the lack of power down the straights and the ferraris being superior I had no chance.. If anyone has an idea on why this may have happened I would like to know haha it never happened in the practice sessions or in the first qualifying session which is throwing me a little.. Traction Control was off as well..

Race 1
Perch got the jump on me and set a very good early pace, racing another quick alpha made it extremely hard to look for a passing move so i just sat behind him and pressured hard for a few laps hoping he would make a mistake and open the door. The race was very quick as we dropped third and kept pushing fast lap times, I got a really good exit out of turn 1 and the extra few k's up the hill allowed me to dive down the inside on the long left just before the top of the hill, we rubbed panels but I managed to make the move stick and pushed hard to create a gap. Car was a gem to drive and came home with the win.

Race 2
Perch again got the jump and again set a cracking pace at the start, unfortunately for him a traffic cone that was on the road sent his car sideways and killed a potential good fight. I pushed on hard and got into a nice rhythm ended up doing a 59.8 during the race which I was a little surprised with.

Race 3
Reverse grids continued to be my downfall as I was unfortunate to be caught up in the first lap shenanigans but thats racing. Dead last I worked my way through the field picking off one by one to finish a solid 10th, was very impressed by the racing I saw in front of me so good hard but fair racing I actually enjoyed sitting behind and watching it unfold before making my own move.

Season
Well for me It was a very successful season although being in the quicker car I pushed hard every race and had some cracking battles along the way, I would like the thank wally for the time and effort he puts week in week out to make this league happen! To everyone else it was awesome racing with you guys Im looking forward to next season when we all have pretty much the same machinery and can have even closer battles.

If you guys would like my set up I would be more than happy to pass it on its a tricky car to set up initally but once you have the basic set up each round just needs a tweak.

Awesome weekend for me with a clean sweep but it wasn't easy at all

Race 1: Perch had good early pace as usual and took held the lead for a few laps I could see him start to struggle on his tyres and my tyres were just coming on so i pressed and put enough pressure on him to make the mistake and took the lead. Once I got there I just put my head down and did my two fastest laps which gave me some breathing space and cruised to the finish.

Race 2: Got pole and lead from the start made a tyre pressure change and the car was a rocket doing low 35's all race built an early lead and kept a nice buffer to 2nd came home with a nice lead.

Race 3: This has been my down fall race for the past few rounds probably due to my lack of patience lol No rocket start for me.. I accidentally started in 3rd gear so I didnt get the typical alpha launch, racing side by side with matthew into t1 and settling into 9th was a good start. I was close to the carnage at the start but managed to slow down and pick my way through, after some close passing I was 3rd by lap 1. Then came the ferraris!! They kept driving off into the distance down the straight but I kept chipping big chunks of time through the corners and eventually had them in my sights. This was a big challenge as I had to make a move during a section of track that wasn't relatively close to a straight which is close to impossible but some how I managed to do it, first with marty It was a good fight placing the ferrari perfectly until I had a dive and caught him a little. Fortunately the alpha had just enough speed to hold him off through some fast flowing turns. Built a little gap and started the hunt for stan, got him around the outside with the extra grip and powered on. This was so much fun had to put in some good laps to keep them behind me but in the end built a buffer and cruised across the line.

Good racing from all in race three it was very clean and so much fun! Bring on Barbagello

Btw stan Im looking forward to this ferrari wall hahaha

Count me in! This should be fun im liking the 458 gt2 but havnt decided yet

Race 1: Got off the line with an awesome start which saw me go from 3rd on the grid to almost taking the lead going into T1, I settled into a nice little grove following wobblyone his car was a lot stronger on cold tyres than mine and pulled a little bit of a gap but within 4 laps i had cut that down to a few tenths and the race for the lead was on! unfortunately for me it only lasted the better part of half a lap as I made a slight error and sent the alpha side ways and onto the grass. There goes any chance of first position as wobblyone skipped a way to a nice 6sec lead and I just kept the car on the road for a solid 2nd place

Race 2: Once again nailed the start and lead into T1 but once again Wobblyone had better pace than me early on and it wasnt long until he made a bold but fair move and picked me off. Knowing it  was early days and having confidence that I will pull the gap down i just kept punching out time consistent lap times 5 laps latter i was on the back of P1 and kept pushing my car was really strong and decided to make a move and go for the lead... well the pass lasted for a while as we were side by side for a few corners I eventually came out in front and controlled the race and took my first victory.

Race 3: Well race 3 was boring haha I lead from the start, had a little bit of pressure from wobblyone until he made a mistake and spun which left me by my lonesome self. Car was a rocket and kept setting really good laps came across the line with a 15sec lead and another win.

Overall a very successful weekend for myself a second place and two wins with the bonus of two fastest laps I cant really complain, Its good to be back league racing and racing some quality drivers! See you all next Week!!
