Thinking then that he had spun, I moved back over but to my surprise he was still there and we tangled wheels. We were on for a good result at that point. (:R1 I ran low downforce but it didn't work out as I was slowly loosing the front two in the bends.R2 Ran high with a much better result and was able to hold second until "the incident".Wont be around next week but c u all for the last round.

Race 1, I qualified on pole and lead from woe to go, managing the gap back to Jamie, looking after my tyres. Race 2 I was more in the thick of it, with the reverse grid and more ballast. I was chasing Glenn pretty hard, with Jamie pressuring from behind. I had an over steer moment which overheated my rears, softening me up for Jamie's pass as my tyres cooled, but he gave it back to me soon afterwards. I was gifted the win by Dion's and Glenn's coming together, with Jamie still hot on my heels till the end. Race 2 wasvery good.

At least I didn't head-butt a spring..... Logged 2+2=√16 Vipergod Jr. Member Posts: 147 Karma: 6 Re: Hungaroring Race Chat (Jan 7) « Reply #10 on: January 08, 2014, 07:36:11 PM » All good Glen. My fault the lap b4 for mucking up a corner and letting you catch me.The incident was just one of those things (couldn't stop laughing afterwards)Ninja and i were having a dingdong of a battle till he dropped connection.Thought you were a bit hard on Steve Wally as Ninja and i both stopped on T1 after our touch Logged Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11033 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: Hungaroring Race Chat (Jan 7) « Reply #11 on: January 08, 2014, 10:59:46 PM » Quote from: Bacchulum on January 08, 2014, 05:15:10 PMThe lap charts are wrong Wally, from another race with 13 starters.Thanks, fixed.After the Dion/Ninja accident, DavidG who was next on track had time to react and slow, but then Steve came along after that hard into the rear of David. It looked to me like Steve had ample time to see what was ahead of him on track.

Ended up qualifying second (thanks to those who couldn't make it) and got to see a race from the front of the grid. I didn't have the pace to catch Wally in race 1 but was happy with my pace and consistency.Race 2 was great fun. I was slow in the opening 2 laps but settled into a rhythm and was slowly catching Wally as he was battling with the 2nd place car. On the second last lap Wally spun up the tyres which gave me a huge run on him down the back straight. I managed to make the pass but then gave the place back as I spun up the rears on the penultimate corner and couldn't hold my place into the last corner.All in all, I had a great night it was nice to have some clean track. I had my best night to date by far and can't wait for Montreal next week.
