That was a shame. Got quite into the car in race 1 but race 2 felt wrong. Thought i didn't load setup initally but then after getting smoked down the straight realised my accelerator was only going to 70%... usually fixed by a quick replug so pulled over to do it but unplugged the wheel first by accident. Doing that looses all ffb and game needs a restart and was already a lap down so didnt seem worth it.

I really enjoyed the combo. Great fun.

Race 2 win was a little hollow as I started from the front row, and then just had to put in consistent, error free laps. I know Phil and Bacchulum still passed me, but then they pitted and I didn't really see anyone else except for Bueller about 6 secs back. I would have preferred a proper rolling reverse grid, to see a little more action.

yeah ,  I agree with rolling reverse grid, does make the second race more fun

Enjoyed this combo also, switching to Lola Ford feels a little more comfortable for me. It seems to be a bit more tame and controllable. First race I did with you guys on a roller-coaster track, had me spinning and in the grass all the time. Thanks guys

After doing a lot of practice during the week, but none on Thursday, I was just not as comfortable in the car as I had been, on race night  :'(
I qualified 7th and came in 9th in race one. Sorry for the collision in race 1 Bacchulum but we were 3 wide and I was being very cautious as I had no idea what the other cars were going to do. I had fun holding up Robin for the rest of the race though  :)
I think I stuffed up Mael's second race too , I guess you were not expecting me to be going so slow in that part of the track. Thanks for addressing though , I had to wait for traffic to pass. The highlight of the second race was coming up the startline straight with Joe on the inside , me overtaking Joe and Seanus overtaking me on the inside heading towards turn 1, I knew it would not end well.
Looking forward to Mosport.

That was telstra's fault. From my view you took a very narrow line through to corner staying leaving enough space for me to go around the outside. Just as I came alongside you, your car suddenly jumped onto my bonnet  :o

I've been having a lot of these mini-lags lately. The town where I live is suppose to receive NBN during October which should help a LOT, but am skeptical if it would reach my house.

Haha yeah you two buzzing past at such high speed was what made me look at my pedal app and see it maxing at 70% acceleration. One second you looked quite far back on the map and the next second you were right in my mirrors!

I love the lola. Spent most of the night just lapping around with a bit of a gap forward and behind so not much dicing. But it doesn't matter because its just so much fun having too much power. Lots of delicate throttle control  ;D
