Yeah, we're actually running Largo. The picture I found was just that one layout. Ignore the picture.

I'll be absent again.
I'm almost mended but can't risk aggravating it again.
Really hoping to be good for next week.

Hey Wally, this is the rack I was trying to think of tonight. Only fairly short and not one of the Free Roam maps, but this is just an awesome track, even with graphics turned down to "low". I can only imagine how it looks cranked up.

To say I’m shock would be an understatement! This was a really tough track to find speed on and whilst not wanting to sound arrogant I really did struggle to get my head around all those slow corners. That was, until I softened up the springs and suddenly the speed came, but sadly so too did the understeer. Whilst the results show almost a perfect night, Mael was super quick all night and he always seemed to be able to fine an extra 10th to take pole or indeed the fastest lap in 2 of the 3 races.

Race 1 - the race long battle with Mael was epic! We ran sure but side for almost the entire first lap and from then on it was real pressure cooker racing. I knew one mistake would mean sudden defeat and I’m sure Mael was hoping I would fall…Despite a couple of close calls as the tyres became red I managed to fall over the line for a very long awaited win.

Race 2 was just as tricky as the nature of this track allowed me to get very close to the leading car but it was really difficult to get a better drive off a corner to make a pass at the next. When I eventually caught up to Rob (who was leading at the time) it took several laps to find a way past as he was very quick in the opening section of the lap where I was fighting understeer  and the only place I felt I had an advantage was at the 2nd to last corner where there was no passing options. Eventually Rob managed to clip Mael’s curb coming onto the front straight and I was able to make a pass into the first corner but then crept home with 1tr of fuel.

Race 3 was more of the same, get a good start, avoid the carnage and press on. The temperature difference really played into my setup for this race as I felt I could run in the mid 8’s for the whole race as for some reason they didn’t seem to wear as much. The conditions felt much like what I’d had in the practice server so I knew tyre wear would not be an issue. Once in front of doobs I tried as hard as I could to build a gap and not make a stupid mistake. I did at one stage cook a tyre with a massive drift and so the next lap I back off a little and lost about a second to Wally, but then the tyres came back and I was able to maintain my lead.

I must admit I’m really enjoying these tracks as they’re all new to me the challenging of learning them has been very enjoyable.

Bit of a tough night for me.  I'm slowly finding pace in these cars and qualified 3rd however a slight touch from Wally in R1 led to a hit by Seanus
coming through which put me last.  A spin of my own doing early in R2 saw me again last and to cap it off R3 saw a run wide and hit the fence which
you guessed it . . . last!   Had I stayed on track I was pretty competitive with Wally and Mael and had some good laps whilst they lasted.
My dodgy shoulder is doing me no favours either so hopefully that starts to improve....
