Have they added an option to automatically save replays yet?
As Pops said, it was great getting together to race with the "old crowd" last night, really looking forward to some more racing with you guys.
It was a bit of a shock to the system for a while though, having had a new addition to the family a couple of weeks ago I've not really driven in anger in ages, add to that not having touched the Skippy in even longer, and having reformatted for Win7 I had to get the FFB set up again.
During the practice session I was all over the place, spinning more often than I ever remember doing .... it did not bode well for me for the evening!
I finally got my head back into gear and rediscovered how to drive the Skippy in the last couple of laps, managing to pip fellow Legends Pops and Don for a respectable 7th on the grid who I'd been lagging behind all evening.
The race went much better than I'd hoped for - I got a good start off the line, combined with Phil Kerins poor start had me chasing down Darren for 5th. I managed to stay in touch for the first few laps, but lap 4 the spotter suddenly tells me I'm in 5th? I didn't even know they did that!!
It totally put me off and I cocked up the braking into T1, but managing to stay off the grass. I was lucky to get back up to speed before Pops got into a position to get past, and then battle REALLY commenced
. Pops got very close on a couple of occasions, getting a good run on my onto the s/f straight at the end of lap 10 - but not enough to try something. A little bit of traffic on lap 15 wasn't a problem either (thanks Alex), great to see the familiar SRouk standards of driving again. Don't think the gap was ever much more than a second between Pops and I - only a mistake was going to settle this ... and I duly obliged
Pops got another good run on me at the end of lap 15 to put the pressure on, and I ran off onto the grass at T1, letting Pops past and Philip too... doh! Spinning at T1 again the following lap put any hopes of regaining a postion down leaving me in my starting spot of 7th.
Good fun, thanks all.
