Am I the only one who likes Enna? Qually went ok, but couldnt get up to usual speed, but should be expected without recent practice, especially at Enna (everyones favourite track ) For the first few laps mo was running at a fast pace and I was only very slowly edging away, so I thought I was in for a close run till the end. Kept a pretty good race pace early on and got a 1:29 as my fastest lap,thats when I decided to slow a bit incase it ended in tears :'( By not pushing too hard, I had good consistency for a change;) with a very minor warning from my rear tyres exiting the Schumacher chicane where I skimmed the barrier costing about 2/3 seconds. I was just catching Blaz and had about 5 minutes to go, when the race ended. Probably to most peoples enjoyment. Luckily I didn't have to out drag anyone as I had a very tall 6th gear with slightly reduced revs,(Note to self> check setup)

Well what a ragged performance that was from me, glad its over. Qualed 8th I think, 2.5 secs of my PB, where has the time gone ? Couldnt really put it together in the race, to many little mistakes but fortunatly only one off. Appologies to the PaulW (I think) for tapping you, I think you were already going sideways and I just couldnt avoid you. Finished in 4th which amazed me after such a poor overall performance. Oh well on to the next one

Yea u too Leuven good job, cheque is in the post.. a lucky one two for CBFR - we could have driven to paddock in formation hehe. For F550 7800 does 30 min, 7700 does about and hour and 7600 1h30+ before engine blows. I'd like to see more moderation too, alot of folk speeding on pit lane and there's no harm in starting a traffic jam on pit exit if there's alot of hotlapping traffic. Great finish in 2nd for me.. but alot of DNF's and I got to find more pace at Enna. Good run with you Truetom at start until your Lambo seemed to bottom out over kurbs and loose all grip. Had Zacuri behind me but I managed to stay 5 - 8 seconds ahead.

Yeah, Rich, the car just lost the a$$ and went straight into the wall, engine blown, etc. Otherwise a good race, was 3rd at the time of my crash. Lambo is quite fast, but a bit unstable with Sharks setup. When I fixed the dancing a$$ it seemed to lose the edge so I decided to give it a try. Would have been ok if Rich wasn't chasing me. I had to push it and the result is known. I had a good time tonight at Enna, scary circuit!

The Lambo is very fast and as wide as bus.
In WOSEC team LNR drove Lambourgini and their fastest driver was consistantly 1 - 2 seconds faster than me so I know that car is quick and he looked good doing it with their team livery.

Bwah ha ha, you only have my Monster Rank setups, rather than my season 1 setups, reserved for Team Shark drivers only.

no Leuven- Enna is one of my faves because it's so different in style If it's the incident I'm thinking of Greg then, no worries. I was trying to leave a little space to my right in case you should need it after our little outbreaking competition. That new line screwed me up though and my wheel hooked into the sand and span me around. You couldn't have avoided me- glad you kept your splitter!

Give a man a fish- he'll eat for a day. But give him a fishing rod and... he'll break it up for firewood, or just possibly, swap it for a fish.

Am I the only one who likes Enna? "Like" isn't really the word. We had a poll before Season 2 started on whether we should dump Enna as so many people complain about how evil it is, however, it's apparently that evil that keeps it close to our hearts as we voted overwhelmingly to keep it... https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=685.0

Bwah ha ha, you only have my Monster Rank setups, rather than my season 1 setups, reserved for Team Shark drivers only. Well, I'm not as patient as you and also I stink at making setup - or I'm just lazy. Your monster setups are good enough for the race to be fun - and that's why I came here anyway. Just watch it when I grow up!
