Was that my set up Mr Hot? or didn;t you like it? I sure liked your setup Mark, it's VERY good. Still I changed it on several points to fit my driving style and lack of skill. First off all i lowered the gear ratio, and secondly I let some air out of the tyres. Anyone interested can get it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IJ9ZXGE0Stig / Hotkeys Nice one Good luck on Thursday night.

This track seems fun, but how can we use a circuit where there can be cheated so much ? In at least 3 turns you can drive by rolling up of concrete blocks...& chikane by the 'Pit In' can be taken without 'Cut Track'. Do we use rules ?...if yes, who watches the replay afterwards?

It's a good thing I enjoyed the practice for this race so much. Did a very good quali, a reasonable good start - but still managed to screw up on the very first lap -- waited for the field to pass me -- started to get back in -- only to do a superb duble-axel with a twist by the pit entry People like me obviously never learn Stig / Hotkeys

If you don't have all the sim content loaded how will you "see it" online? Download everything! Wiser folk than me say you don't have to buy all the new cars. Just the ones you plan to run yourself. Please, please try to join us next time

Had some great battles with people, Syd, Legzy and Alex, spent several laps chasing Alex, caught, fell back etc etc tried a couple of moves up the inside where I was faster but kept making contact, 2nd time Alex bounced off the bales I waited of course, but he quit, shame if I had passed you would have zoomed back past on the straight anyways I should have given more room, but I was doing my best in a car with a mind of it's own. Sorry. Other than thast cloud, a great fun race. Should have taken Elan I suppose, but fancied a run in the A110, problem was it was a very different speed and lines in some places than other cars, and hard to judge for me anyway.

Replay and results now posted.
Thanks for making that a great race, although I missed out on the action.
Last time we see the Elan :'( (and the Elite)

I can't believe I was still running at the end. I must have crashed into chicanes at full speed at least five times.

Not an exciting race from my point of view, but I reached the finish, which was my aim, & even got on the podium! Practiced a bit more with the Elan & succeeded in dragging a bit more speed out of it, although still way off the pace of Cossy, Mark & Stig. So decided just to drive at a safe pace & get a finish. By and large that is what happened, although I did clip the wall at the first chicane on the 2nd lap & spun. Lost a place to Syd, but he crashed on the next lap & I got the place back again. Very lonely race after that, just lapped a couple of people & came home 3rd. Congrats to Mark & Ade (great performance in the Healey ), & looks like I'm leading the points standings, that won't last, lol.

That was good happy to bring the Healey home in second place with a little help from the girls up front in their Elans making mistakes that usually end in tears here. Cheers Ade

Great race guys. Qualified P3 some where in the 2.14s a PB for me here. Blown away by Pelle off the start slipping down to P4. Pelle also got Stig as well so the battle commenced. I decided to play it a bit cool as it is very easy to destroy your car here and let Stig and Pelle fight it out and enjoy spectating. I had a feeling it might end in tears and unfortunately poor Stiggy spun coming out of T-last so it was now me and Pelle. I decided not to go for the pass but just to push him hard and it paid off as Pelle clipped the kerb at the chicane and went vertical. Bad luck Pelle it was a good race while it lasted. At this point I was 5 sec's off a flying Cosworth and I thought maybe if I can just keep in touch he might make an error but as it happened it was me whom clipped the barrier before the last chicane over corrected and spun. :'( Luckily I managed to keep it in a straight line all be it going backwards. After this incident I was 25 sec's down on Cossy so again like Geoffers I decided a finish was more important at this stage. Cosworth got the gap up to 35 sec's at one point then it dropped suddenly to about 27 probably traffic I guess. I was very surprised when the message came through that you had crashed Cosworth. I know it is hard to drive at say 90% as you lose your rhythm but you had this race in the bag. Anyway I also found it hard to take it steady to the finish but I could smell the champers. Like most I hated this track to begin with but once you find the sweet spot with the car which does take a bit of time its great. Well done Ade & Geoffers top racing.
