Was pleased to get pole in GTC, in 6th place overall.
TT was 0,5s faster in qually so I knew he'd drive off during the race and leave an empty track ahead of me. That's why I took soft front allround.
The tyres started off fine and I could get a gap infront of Jan Duijs. After a few laps he was gaining on me and on my back. We had a few good laps, close together.
Halfway through the race I pitted in and won alot of time on Jan that way. After that it was a very boring race to the finish.
Shame Paul969 and BACKO weren't here to compete for the champ, as it was just a drive to the finish now, which isn't really rewarding.
Grats FreQ and the GT2 win and PR for the GT3 win!

Had a blast today, probably the first race I need to have a shower after. For once I felt a bit competative, had the correct tires on and a great setup. Very sorry for the contact between us, SBG, and that it ruined your race. I was bound to be involved in an incident at some point.

My best result but being realistic only due to absences and engines blowing up etc. Massive apologies to Pseudo for the first lap tap - not used to being the one trying to do the overtaking and mis-judged the speed difference. I have enjoyed my rookie season but have lots of homework before next season trying to find some speed and a division not made up mostly of aliens!

I pretty much knew with 60Kilos that quali was going to be a damage limitation excercise, managed a reasonable time and was ahead of SBG so hoped to keep him there and keep my championship winning hopes alive. Both Dan and Psuedo were literallay out of the picture as their times were much faster. As for the race all went pretty much to plan wrt times and pitstops iid get lucky when Prof and Psuedo had their incident as I could have come off much worse. Unfortunately SBG got past so I had to really go for it and re-pass him, eventually managing do take him under braking, after that I took it easy, possibly too easy as Pribeiro finished quite a way in front but due to the bad luck of SBG and Psuedo I basically cruised it to the finish, a bit of a quiet race for the most part, but the Championship win more than makes up for it. And I must admit I've thouroughly enjoyed all the fights with SBG this season, its a shame you lost out through no fault of you rown at the final hurdle. :'( Roll on next season! Must also say really chuffed along with Dan to win the GT3 Team championship.

... Thanks to all the guys we lapped, made it easy for us ... although my heart was in my mouth a few times as backmarkers spun in front of us! ...
Erm, I think that was probably me, on the 3rd corner, the back end came out a little and I took a chance that flooring it and spinning right off would be the best way to avoid you, luckily I was right. I was finding it difficult to judge letting you guys through on the straights before the corners and loosing s**t loads of time or letting you close up then over take after the corner, everyone kept closing much faster on the corners than I thought they would and i ended up braking too late to try and stop them from going into the back of me! I was very aware that this was the last race of the season for you guys and only my first race.

If there's a GT3 championship next season I might be tempted to give it a go for a change from the usual GT2s etc.
Well done to everyone taking part this season, I had another enjoyable season and some great fights along the way. Also thanks to all the back room staff from moderators, to server starters and administrators, without you all this would not be possible.

Well, gave it my best shot. Somehow the Leg-ends extended their lead in GT2! Well done lads I quite like the M3, but only with soft fronts it seems - great for a little exit oversteer Qually was super-tight and I felt quite bad reading Adam's comment afterwards - sorry! I really didn't expect it though...I'm back on my old PC over Xmas and it was soo unstable in qually....CTD'd 4 times. I'm amazed it lasted through the race! Was lucky to get away at the start and just tried to build a lead as I wasn't sure how much I'd lose in the pits, luckily I came out 17 seconds ahead and could then just drive smoothly to the finish. Real chuffed with 2 races and 2 wins Gd racing guys. Catch ya in the sprint on Tuesday (If my pc holds up)

Lol Ade . Its easy to forget that we were all nervous in our first few races and your mistakes are therefore completely foregivable. Stick with it and it'll get easier. I would say that I think you made a mistake in choosing from the quickest group of cars. Resultantly you were stuck amongst the slower traffic which made life tricky for you and those around you, I kinda knew it would . I suggest you take a car from the slower classes for your next mixed class race, they are far easier to drive and you'll avoid the problems you faced last night. Cya next season.

Well, if i'd quit every time the leader were lapping me, I could just as well not start, or even not register
