Not very forgiving when you get it wrong here. Tried a few laps last night most of which ended up with broken suspension.

Not wrong, those guard rails are pretty solid :)

Had a shocker of a night, even by my standards. Turned my first lap about half an hour before qualifying and was flat out stringing 2 laps together. Sat out Qual and started from the back. a few crashes and pit stops later and finished 2 laps down, I think.

Started race 2 46 seconds late after helping our 7 year old with her drawing and just turned laps to try and get to grips with the track. was getting better but still never got below a mid 40. Had a crash mid race requiring another stop and just tried to stay out of the way. Was something different which is always appreciated but wasn't a good combo for me. Would be a great track in a radical or something with a heap of aero though.

Thansk Wally as always, had a fun night.

Plan tonight was to stay off the rails and finish.  That worked well coming from 5th for a good 2nd.
Race two was hoping to be more of the same but a slide on the cobblestones on lap 2 saw me around.  From there
the damage on the car was hampering speed so just held on to drag it home in 7th.

That fast right hander at the bottom of the hill was my bogey corner, cursing both races really, once with a wrong gear change and twice with hitting the left hand barrier.

Apologies to Ben, I had no idea I had moved over on you and would have apologized on the night if I had known I was at fault. Sorry mate.

My first penalty - Boo!

I was surprised with my pace after spending the last 12 odd months at the back of the top 10.
Brakes help. 8)
Still struggling with concentration (and staying awake) after 2100, and race 2 fell apart half way through.
Still, very happy just to be able to lap. 8)

I know, I felt bad about handing it out. But rules is rules.
