I may be a little bit late.  I'm doing a Marty and playing tennis this time instead of cricket training :)

I said "a Marty", not "the Marty".  It could be any Marty. ;)

Race 1 was fun but race 2 was a wipeout. I got tapped to the back of the field before turn 1 and then a few laps in had a massive grass/kerb induced spin coming onto the back straight, spinning on the grass, which put me way back.

It's quite a fun little car.  Not sure if it's the setup, but it has next to no turn in or front end mid-corner grip, however it's quite easy to use the throttle to bring the back around and corner a bit better.  Balancing a nice back-end slide through T2 and the last corner was fun.

Exited the club meeting in time for race one, thanks for the restart!
Got a handle on it and with my sand bagging lead out the start and with a surprising 98% consistency picked up fourth!
But non of the speed of GB and Phil though. Had some close door to door racing,  which I hope I handled okay.
Good fun racing again, thanks.

Race 1 and restart Race 1 were almost carbon copies for me following Phil around in 2nd spot, with the maybe a lap in there somewhere up front. I was sure one of us would get the win but then GB just blew by with everyone else hot on his heels. Went from trying to find a spot to put the move on Phil to holy crap better get moving before I'm swamped.

Race 2 was also a lot of fun but I was making more errors (should have power napped). Sorry to Gratulin for a little rub in turn 2 which caused a spin. Gave Bruce a bit of a fright trying to get round on the outside then the grass, which strangely worked out OK for me  :P

As always thanks Phil.

we had some great laps humper, for a while I thought I might not be able to catch you once you got past, But seeing GB catching us up at a very swift pace, made me try a little harder had some really nice pace :)

well done GB  even with self imposed drive throughs you are too fast :)
