I got pole, and Brad, Mael and I got fastest laps. When the points dust settled, the round was a tie between AGK and Freezer. There is no change at the top of the season standings, but Brad has extended his lead a little.RACE 1 RESULTSRACE 2 RESULTSRACE 3 RESULTSSEASON STATSRound PointsAGK 46Freezer 46bradc 44Wally 41Mael 31Rob 29Doobs 28Seanus 0Joe 0Rolz 0Bacchulum 0PenaltiesRace 1I locked my brakes a bit and went straight, squeezing Brad off the track and then bouncing into Mael – so I’ll take some penalty restrictor for not leaving enough racing room in the 1st two corners.Season Standings1.

It’s a shame the grid numbers are so low as these cars are really good in close combat. Race 1 - I’d love to see a replay of the start of race one because I felt I was run off the road, but the video might show otherwise. I then fought hard to recover and made it back to 2nd.Race 2 - During the race was able to get side by side with AGK but couldn’t safely make a move which wouldn’t result in contact, in the end I tried to out brake into turn 2 and contact meant I was off cutting grass again. After watching the video it shows that I tried to drive into a gap which wasn’t there and should have backed off to fight another day. The charge back from near last was a lot of fun as you could get super close without really hurting the tyres so it was a lot of fun.towards the end of this race I was unable to pass Mael for the win however when it spun at the final corner I tried to avoid him but the back of this car sent me into a spin sending up back to the rear. The race back to the front was a lot of fun, but we would have needed about 10 more laps for that to happen gifting Freezer the win.Race 3 - I had some good battles the opening lap running 3 wide was sensational. I kept my nose clean and was able to get a good lead and despite a couple of close shaves as the tyres got a little worn and I managed to pull off a win! From the rear view mirror it looked like Freezer and AGK were having a tremendous battle, until one of them appeared to spin. For this race I tried a setup change (a lot more ARB) and whilst it gave me better tyre life I found the car very twitchy under power down at the apex. « Last Edit: June 01, 2022, 02:00:19 PM by bradc » Logged Mael RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 1045 Karma: 21 Re: S42R5 - Parana « Reply #7 on: May 31, 2022, 11:36:10 PM » Quote from: Wally on May 24, 2022, 10:52:24 PMRace 1I locked my brakes a bit and went straight, squeezing Brad off the track and then bouncing into Mael – so I’ll take some penalty restrictor for not leaving enough racing room in the 1st two corners.Did not realise there was contact between you and Brad Wally. Thought you just did not notice me an on the inside and turned in. You should regard your penalty cancelled by my mistake in the third race, that was a bad one by me.Was a tough track for pole sitter, they would always be under pressure at turn 2 as the drivers behind will benefit from the draft.

I then fought hard to recover and made it back to 2nd.What happened was that I was a little in front of you and to the left approaching the corner. I locked the brakes a touch which saw me go straight instead of turning left and that's when we had side to side contact as you ran out of room.

I think if that turn 2 had some banking that would have allowed for a bit cleaning racing, but granted you, Freezer and I had an epic battle through there on the opening lap of race 3.
