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

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)

Hey Wally, don't feel bad about handing out the penalty. I wasn't boo-ing you, I was boo-ing my mistake.

Well done Bacchullum, I also suffer from the 9pm "tireds" and drink 2 cans of a generic Red Bull from Aldi @ 99c each at about 5pm and it usually keeps me awake till about 10pm  :).

I had a tonne of fun tuesday night.I did not qual very well but in the race i was kind of competitive and by the stats i was nice and consistent,and it felt that way
In the second race i was even better battling all the way to catch ab156 ......real adrenaline!!! And when the moment came to pit for tyres i followed him in the pit....real...real...real fun waiting for the mechanics doing the jobs and when exiting the pits we were shoulder to shoulder with ab156 getting ahead,,,,mate,,,ahahahahaha it was huge putting the gears up chasing you!!!

BUT!!!  at 2 laps to go i touched that bloody fenced and it never let me go,i swear they are magnets!!  car broken and the esc button pressed :'( I love the 100% damage(it took me 10 years to convince wally to apply the 100% damage,thx wally!!)
Thank you ab156 for the fun in the last 2 races!!!

The 2 highlights of the race for me was 1: when wally spun in front of me and 2: when freezer spun in front of me....... :o :o :o ;D ;D ;D

RESTART!!   everyone heard me carry on in my Italian accent about the restart.  i don`t really know the cause of it,but if its because OF an accident is bloody silly and childish,if it is because to wait for someone,its bloody fair.
Also every time we restart i am in good position to win the race,,,,,, ;D

Thx guys you r a bunch of lovely poofters  :-* :-* :-*

Good night for me. Any night where I see Mael in my mirrors facing the wrong way is a good night, and I got to see that in both races. Thanks Mael you're a good friend.

Exactly right. Tech issues only, like FFB failure, game crash whatever, if it's just when the race is starting.
