Yeah. Great fun. Really works to have a second "fun" series using some of the older/slower cars. Hope Historix or P&G arrive on AC eventually.

I got some good results by not spinning

Also, highlight of the evening was passing Bird - not once but THREE TIMES. I am sure he will tell you that he passed me 3 times but that is NOT how I prefer to remember it

I missed all that. What was the track that played up?

7 seconds may be a bit much, it may be good to have a practice race between seasons running cars in order of the last season standings. I do remember the z4 being quite a bit worse then all the other cars there but I was able to match some guys driving the lotus elise s2 having to fight very hard to hang on to the evora gte. But the lotus is very slow in straights its very good in corners, the z4 is very slow and also the worst car in corners so it may be a bit too far behind the others I think.

Don't worry Marty - you'll be in the same car as Guybrush so nothing will change for you

Well now. After Tuesday's Monza Mayhem this should be a fairly relaxing race LOL

Cobra Kaos? Or Salzburg Slidefest?

I'm still confused about where the heck Lemmy came from

At the moment Wally's installation for Thursday is the one.
If any one has the time can you check to see if my test server is running 'Lemmy...'

has anyone had the chance to see if the server "Lemmy Test Freejoin [FREEJOIN]"?

sorry at work no access

Yep. Working. Got lots of beemers at Imola....

....at one stage I nearly combined my front nose with Gratulins gearbox, he scared the crap out of me braking harder than expected but I managed to avoid it....

Ha ha! I blame you for tailgating me and making me nervous

Seriously, I had that corner (turn 4?) totally wrong the whole week and never realised it until you almost tapped me so sorry for the incorrect early/heavy brake. Seems everyone else was simply lifting there? I seemed to pull away in turns 2 and 3 so never had anyone on my tail through turn 4 until you showed up. I heard Rob, I think, calmly explain his cornering technique halfway through the race after he almost got tail ended

Have to agree - a great night's racing. Either everyone is giving me a wide berth or I am getting better (more relaxed?) driving in traffic.

Race 1 start was really good since I was mid pack and worried that I would get tangled up in turn 1 but everyone seemed super aware of other cars and we got through it without incidents (?). I then just tried to keep consistent and keep a lookout for the clouds of smoke that kept appearing. My race position kept improving each time I passed one of these clouds - not sure if this is a bug? Pretty happy with my finish but it was very much "inherited".

In Race 2 I got a fantastic start. Not sure what happened but the cars ahead of me all pushed over to the left and I had to go right. Ended up with clear track ahead and ended up 5th after turn 1 from about 11th on the grid. Then I was sweating because I had all these fast guys hunting me (I won the most hunted award!). Man, that was pretty intense watching out for cloud ahead and overtaking cars behind. Luck I had my new quadraphonic sound so I could hear the angry buzzing of the  cars coming up behind me I also never really felt comfortable with the car in the second race - forgot about the track grip starting low and lost confidence in my hard tires. Managed to finish 10th I think due to more cloud bugs.

Thoroughly enjoyable to be in the mix.

Seemed to me that having more severe consequences of spinning (ie getting beached) leveled the field a bit in this race. Is that what others also felt from this round?
