but around lap 10 Grat reentered the track straight back onto the racing line in front of me and I had to slam on the brakes and lost the gap.
Ouch! Really sorry, Joe! Did not realize it. I should definitely pay more attention to that. Shame on me.
Just watched the replay. It was less bad than I thought (I rejoined parallel to the track), which makes me feel a bit better. Still: I could have kept a wider line longer and let you pass. So still: sorry.

Yeah wasn't that bad. I saw you coming in from the left in plenty of time, but I still went for the apex and floored it not excepting you to come all the way across.

I did have my save of the season late in the race as Mael gave me a near perfect tap in the rear exiting turn 2. I went to full lock catching the slide then worked hard to avoid the tankslapper return. Somehow hung on to it which was not easy in the rx7 ad I think ive only made saves like that in FWD or AWD cars before where its much easier by just going full throttle to get the car straightened.

Yeah sorry 'bout that one  :D I was close behind you approaching T2 and it appeared that you ran wide leaving me a barn-door to make the pass. As I was diving for the gap you turned in sharply leaving me nowhere to go. The following lap you took a similar line through T2 so assume it was just your normal line! For myself I found it quicker/easier in the 370 to be closer to the inside curb on entry, every-time I tried the wider line I messed it up.

Overall I had great battles in all 3 races, lots of contact but no great disasters.   ;D

I saw you on the inside there so I actually tried to leave 1 car space inside but was going to hang on outside where I knew there wasnt going to be anything you could do. I would get the better exit and inside line into t3 but without seeing the replay its hard to say if I left enough room. I thought I did and assumed you just ran wide wanting more track then I was leaving which I kind of half expected and so was a bit more ready for a tap.

I wanted to take a look at the replay but just noticed I forgot to save the race 3 replay, this means I also dont have the replay from the earlier expression session. :(

I can lend you mine, as usual. At least for the jumps, it won't make much difference.

If you up the jumps section I should be able to make a video from it for a bit of a laugh. Did you do any jumps as in the prac server I found the other cars looked a bit weird in flight. Wheels flew but body stayed low  ;D

Yes, I did a jump. I can upload the replay file on... dropbox? I think it is in high but maybe not in ultra quality...

1.    Marty
2.    Matthew111
3.    Phil.8
4.    Mael
5.    Freezer
6.    hylas
7.    Bacchulum
8.    Wally


GT86 standings:
1. Marty
2. Matthew111
3. Jeremy
4. Grat
5. Phil.8
6. Bacchulum
7. Bird
8. Hylas

Jap Pack standings:
1. Matthew111
2. Marty
3. Jeremy
4. Grat
5. Phil.8
6. Bacchulum
7. Hylas
So am I the 6th or 7th best motherfucker here? ???

2+2=√16

If it comes down to how many mothers I fuck, I'm way worse than 7th.
Funny how I'm 6th in the cars I hate but 7th in the cars I like. :o
