I might sneak away if the GF is watching "Celebrity Lettuce Painting" or whatever the hell she's into lately and join in.
It'll be strictly with no practice, default set-ups though and fingers crossed though!

Server is up - I forgot to change the name from last night's D2 Endurance race. Join with the usual practice password in your Morgans |

Race 1, immense fun - if anyone grabs a replay of it then look at me and Fozz until I spin, we're passing each other a few times every lap Race 2, spun, crashed, kaput  |

Apparently all Alfa's were right hand drive for race tracks at one point. I find it quite confusing mostly :-S |

I don't know if that car is particularly suited to that track but it seemed really driveable to me. Love the sound of the engine on it and the fact that the pit limiter light actually works Qualified 3rd in race one and managed to get up to first with Tyf and I pulling a nice big gap on everyone else. A bit of a tap about 6 laps in at turn two sent me off into the gravel though :'( I could see you moving over but thought "there's no way he'll try to pass from back there!" and so turned in. Oh well Race two I started about 6th and managed to spin off at the dreaded turn two again! Worked back up to 2nd and slowly closed in on Ruf in the lead edging closer and closer until the very last lap where we exited the last run onto the start/finish together and accelerated for the line. There were thousandths of a second in it and we crossed the line together.... only for me to find it wasn't the last lap  What an idiot! I flew into the gravel and turned hard right as I slid, eventually hitting the pit lane exit tarmac and slowing down. Got back on the track and miraculously still in 2nd place although I could see 3rd closing in really fast. Finished the real final lap and got 2nd. Really like that track and pleasently surprised by the Morgan tonight |

I enjoyed that a lot too! Won 1st and 3rd race, woohoo! Felt so embarrassed about punting you off Peewee (I may even forget your nickname for it ). I wasn't really trying to overtake, just trying to push you into a mistake, turned out it was me who made one *Sniff* Was seriously ashamed rest of the race. Let #2 and #3 pass by, hoping you would be one of them, but you weren't so I got going again. Noticed Picnic taking a stop and go in 2nd race after a mistake, should have done the same, but didn't think of it. Ah well, was still a lot of fun. Track and car did seem to go well together. Although in 3rd race loads of weird things happened, hehe!? Started 6th and all of a sudden was 3rd?! Lol! T |

No probs Tyf, I've done (and will do!) exactly the same. I think I ranted a bit after race one, so, sorry about that  |
