I was also looking forward to a battle with Matt, but when he did not appear, Geoffers stepped in
As normal I was struggling with these monsters but was slowly finding the sweet ( ish ) line and chipping away at Geoffer's quick quali time. Another 30 minutes and I might have got close, but probably not.
The rolling start was OK and I was focused on trying to hang on to Geoffers when things got serious. The first half lap of real racing felt fine and I was tailing Geoffers as planned until my screen crashed to desktop!! By the time I had regained graphics, I was clanking along some Armco and just about dead last!!
Needless to say, Geoffers did not wait for me...can't really say that I blame him
The red mist was particularly thick when I got going again and I confess that the tyres probably suffered more abuse in the first 5 laps than was prudent. I had to abandon the chase after Geoffers when the reality of how little rubber I had left to complete the second half of the race became clear. TBH I doubt that I could have caught him anyway unless he made a serious error, which was unlikely
The only excitement in the second half of the race was when Tony came steaming up behind me in his Div 1 car. Pathetically I tried to hold him off for about 2 corners lol, well a guy can dream can't he??
Grats to Ziu and Erling and to Geoffers for getting a Div 2 car onto the podium.
Good to see Fulvio racing here again, we know each other from many battles in GPL.
