Sounds like your mechanics were waiting for you to turn your engine off, so they could load up your fuel MJ.
Engine was off, fuel had already gone in, just the wheels never went on! Had even turned off 'repair' after an enthusiastic Italian bundled me off the track

Had a very few time to practice with this event so i choose Pantera couse i know her very well. Good quly lap, not the prfect one, i've tryied to brake the 2 mins lap..... Good start and initial pace with Otto consantly into my wake. But when the pit-stop was coming i've realized that the best i could do was the second place, couse i've had to do 85l refuel instead of Otto with his only 50l Escort... I was enjoyed the firts half of the race, i spent the second one trying to close the huge gap with Otto. Only a mistake of him could giv me a hope.....Good race, grats to all, no problem to overtaking. See u next week!

Someone was three seconds faster than John in the same car? I would never have thought that was possible in a million years...

lol, there's far faster out there than me Mog! Do you remember that NG vs Simjunkies series? Some of those guys were silly fast. Otto was a second faster in quali, but I think the Italians took softs for the race, where I tried to make it with meds. Grats GT, by the way

Poorly prepared again, but i did manage to avoid taking out any team-mates this time.. Fun race and series.
Congrats GT and the Soggy Bottoms.

Really enjoyed that one, despite making it hard for myself by spinning at T2 on the first lap. Had to wait for the whole field to go by before I could get back on the track. Had a great time working my way back towards the front, thought I would be doing well to make the top 10 by the end, so was really surprised & happy to finish 4th. Congrats to Otto, Donato & Federico, great speed guys Also well done to GT & the Soggies on championship success. I think you could have used a few more smilies there GT! Oh & you forgot to thank your sponsors.

I think you could have used a few more smilies there GT! You're right.. Had some great battles early on with John, Giuseppe and Federico in their Escorts and managed to sneak up to third for a while until I lost my focus and outbraked myself into the gravel. Was a bit surprised to see so many Alpines on the grid, but soon got it when it came to the pitstops. I thought my usual late pit strategy would see me through, but I lost a lot of places and somehow managed to under-fill which meant I had to short shift for the remainder of the race. Made a few places back, but crossed the line with 0.2L to spare I like these endurance races (although I do appreciate that they are too long for some of our regulars). Last night proved how they can really add another dimension to the racing. Congrats to the pacey pody And thanks to Matt for putting this series on for us

So what do you mean? Was it your way to compliment me? If you mean this ..... thank you very much. My race was difficult at first to maintain contact with Donato, but at the pitstop I had a big advantage when refueling in less seconds of him, then it was a race against loss of concentration. Thank you all for the correctness of the track and in the forum and the staff for the excellent organization. Ciao
