Well I am going to miss the final round  :( 
attending A Celebration of Beaumaris Mid-Century Architecture, so that at least is compensation :)

I was looking forward to this tight street circuit.  Have fun.

Just an idea but maybe drop the handicapping for this last round and let the 3 battle it out?

That could also be worded 'Let Bacculum win'  ;D His pace without handicapping is silly fast

Noooo!  I'm very happy for the handicap to stay, Bacchulum will destroy us without it.

I was thinking the same,

how does a BoP free race sound to everyone ?

Dont be scared :)

I like the idea of a bop free race and if anyone is super too fast maybe they might start from the rear or pits or do a pitstop or drive through :)

I loved tonight despite not finishing either race. Going fast here felt great so i kept going for pbs during the race which was my downfall  ;D race 2 was unlucky just going slightly off track behind the hay bails twice

Thanks Phil - I was suprised to come 3rd in the end. I really enjoyed the Porsche. And Pau was great too once you got into the flow of it, especially the fast flowing esses near the end. I was doing really well in the second race until a fluffed gear change flicked me around and cost me about 8 seconds and a couple of spots to Phil & Joe (who then gave it back by getting lost out in the hay bales :) ).

Congratulations Bacchulum, Mael and Wally it was a good season and thanks Phil for running it. In the last race last night watching Joe's car trying to climb over the trees and walls was a sight to behold !!! Badluck David on your pedal issues, the highs and lows of simracing  :'( . The crowd was certainly excited on your win Bacchulum ;D

In the last race last night watching Joe's car trying to climb over the trees and walls was a sight to behold !!!

Yes unfortunately once behind the hay bales the way out was over the big mound at the chicane. The first time I made it unscathed but the second time something went very wrong and my wheels fell off. Was happy with my pace though and had more in it.

finally got the pedals fixed tonight, had to pull them apart a few times to get it right.

when i got them right just before the race and had no throttle, the round little sensor cog had spun in my dismantling and re-tightening.  So pulled it apart again.

With my sons help we manged to get the throttle working tonight, but then had no brakes so had to pull it apart and spin the brake sensor cog, but the throttle 1 moved again, so pull them apart.

finally we got it both pedals working, next time the spring comes off, it can stay off dam thing!!!

Try an internet search, there's a surprising amount of "how to"'s out there for wheels/pedals that can point out traps to avoid. ;)
But it sounds like you may have come across all them already. :o
