A dream race.
I decided to try the Pantera and spent the last 3 days tinkering with a setup, which eventually gave me pole and fastest lap. Made a boo boo in quali and used my race setup with loads of fuel
but actually made the car more stable and nicer to drive, weird!
Made a terrible start as I just could not hear my car at all (must adjust volume settings) and entered first corner in 3rd behind Dan and Pribeiro.
Harrassed Pribeiro for a while before getting past and eventually got past Dan into T1.
My teamie gave me loads of grief for ages until I felt happy with the tyres and started to bang some quick laps in to try and get away, I think he ran wide somewhere and decided to make hay whilst the sun was shining and kept pushing, eventually getting a nice gap.
From then on I tried to be consistent and stay away from kerbs etc and slowly made the gap grow.
Entered the pits and left in 6th place, put the hammer down and caught up to Ian in the other Pantera, managed to slowly reel him in only for him to let me by, his tyres must have been shot or some other sort of problem as I was looking forward to a good scrap.
After that it was just praying that my pc would not play up and giving backmarkers plenty of time to move over safely.
Chuffed to bits and grats to Pribeiro and Baracus and also to my teammates Dan and Steve.
