Mr consistency!Well I thought my night would be terrible as the car felt bad in the little bit of practice I did, and then on arrival its raining!!However I managed to do a reasonable Qual and get 4th.Race 1 I got a good jump and grabbed one spot and then a few laps later Dave spun and handed me second with Wally sailing away in the distance.Race 2: I seemed to now have a bit of speed over Wally and was harassing him for a few laps but being mindful of taking him out the championship !! This was going well until a tank slapper on the last turn saw me last which then meant a last place start for R3.R3 Bit of an up and down race in the end and surprisingly got home in 4th.Congrats to everyone for a fun season.....

I was thinking last night How could such a small carhave such a large rear end, as it was very difficult to pass at Brands, and most if not all my passes were capitalising on others minor mistakes, especially Dave Gibson in the last turn.Race 1 I made an error in that same turn and it cost me big time, finished 6th.Race 2 and race 3 made passes on the final lap to finish 1st and 2nd respectively.Thanks Wally for the Season and a well deserved win for the Championship. Well done Dave and Glen for2nd and 3rd. Logged Bruce Global Moderator Hero Member Posts: 3440 Karma: 76 "Look out, I'm comin' through!" Re: Round 8: Brands Hatch 09 Indy Race Chat « Reply #13 on: March 27, 2014, 08:25:29 AM » Well done Wally, Glen and Dave, a good conclusion to yet another fantastic season.The wet doesn't agree with me, my lack of throttle/brake finesse is certainly shown up. Race 3 in the dry and lack of weight allowed me to put some good laps but disappointed my self with a contact around lap 7. Logged "I refuse to be what you call normal."

Told ya so!Even my best round and I couldn't close the gap.Overall I had a good night and got as much as I could out of the car.It wasn't enough, and I'm still having nightmares seeing S Perryman in my mirrors, pwned on the last lap, TWICE!!!! Well done to everyone for making this one of the best competitions I've driven in.
