Popped the engine again, and I wasn't even trying !!
At this point I'm withdrawing from any more 67 races, as I don't drive them enough and don't seem to be able to get through a race with one.
I hope my misfortune didn't effect the outcome adversly, but the GPFun guys did seem to be packing out the mid field when I left.
It is probably your gearshifting, Mike. You have the speed and you don't seem to be making mistakes, so if you just sort the reliability problems you're good to go. Hope you reconsider.
We were going strong while you were in the race and JR was also running in the top 5 I think. I noticed Evil running 3rd at one point as well.
After a very nice battle we had an unfortunate collision with Paolo which took him out of the race. I went for the inside at the end of the backstraight and we entered the corner side by side. I just couldn't hold it to the utmost inside, so my rear slid a bit wide and affected Paolo's car enough to send him off. Sorry, Paolo, I tried my best and went right near the wall on the inside, but just couldn't scrub off enough speed. As with my previous attempt, which ended with myself going completely wide and you retaking the lead on the inside, I was hoping it would be repeated, but unfortunately that wasn't the case.
Well, at that point it looked like a decisive victory for UKGPL, but then Mike retired, JR retired and Evil dropped back, so suddenly GPFUN had 3 cars in the top 4. That pretty much decided the outcome. Nice race still, grats all who took part! Seems everyone did their best!
Cheers,

P.S. Sorry for the misunderstanding at the first server run, I took it that we can practice as soon as we join the server. Kinda funny when people were going backwards to make me realize, but I thought they're some crazy people going backwards for whatever reason, lol. More fun was they didn't know that would DQ them.
P.P.S. Jethro, sounds like a lot of struggle, good effort for not giving up before you suffered a lot.
