Sorry for the enthusiast posts but i had a good race
, and i know we are somewhere at the same level, but you have much more experience (see GT2 Mid-ohio). Indeed i took it as a Grand Prix race, i trained 2 days before the race (and you see training pays off, i have now a 3 week summer holiday
)
Ok, so, hang on a sec while I get my full bag of excuses......
right, off we go.
It might have been 18:30 where you were, but it was 17:30 at my house, and I didn't finish work until gone 17:00
quick shower, throw some food down my neck, log on, and try to get some laps in, rush rush rush.
I know, for the SROUK race's i need to do a +1hr to be at Brussels/Amsterdam timing zone. This was also a early race for me but i'm in my third week of holiday
(PS: and wife is working, so i'm free
)
In qual I either collected cut tracks this lap will not count, or I went off, so didn't get a fair lap in
Indeed was again lucky that my first lap was a good lap. Maybe because i had no stress and wanted to start at the back (i even lifted off at club corner just before the finish because i saw my delta timing was to much green
So you see, the best laps you get when you not are under pressure, and you are not pushing.
In the official leaderboard, I can't remember what I got, but it was maybe midfield.
Forgotten also the timings, but i was 1 tenth slower than you. During this period wife was also in holiday during this period
, so i did only +/- 1hr of hotlaps, and i saw i was close to you. So the chance that we where in the same server was big, so i never tried a better lap for several reasons.
Race 2 would have been better if I had not had to start at the back, and forgot I needed to load my setup
too much rushing is my excuse, and I am sticking to it.
You did well Birger
Thx Martin,
And i know i had also some luck (thinking about the collision with the lapped car, and i nursed the car home without losing a place, and the fights in the second race). Much more wheelbanging than the SROUK races (SROUK races are more fair to drive, only such an event has more prestige
).
See ya in the next events
