I'm not going to make this one due to work.
I might miss out on a top 3 championship finish if TT puts in another good drive.

Well Im now officially f***** off. Ive been disco`d 3 times tonight so not gonna be able to race. Thats now 3 races on the bounce this has happened. Strange thing is, public servers are fine, as is the UKGTR praccy server, its just the race server I`m having problems with I never used to have any problems, its a new thing to me - as Shark suggested I turned off shadows, but all to no avail. Does anybody have any more suggestions? Anyway hope you all have a good race, and oh yes, COME ON PAULR. Cheers Rob

Great qually, "poor" race.
That pretty much sums it up for me tonight.
Was never comfortable in the car, but somehow managed a 1:34.6 in qually for 5th overall - a really big surprise with that.
My race setup evidently wasn't as quick, and as I outbraked myself umpteen times I slipped down the order. Apologies to Shark, for nearly taking his nose off on one of the aforementioned outbraking maneuvers .... and consequently leaving Pete nowhere to go but up the arse of the M3. Sorry it knackered your race a bit Pete, feel free to get my wrists slapped...
A fairly forgettable race all in all.
Cheers all, great racing with you this season.

Had no idea what to do in qually with the weight, so I was happy with anything . 13th On the grid was gonna give a hectic race. And that already started in the formationlap. After that I was following some Beamers which were might fast on the straight. Overtook a LegendsBMW (can't remember how ) and was behind Stew's RSR. He went off at the s/f straight and I got by. Then I was behind Andy and I had a hard time trying to find a way past. He later made a mistake in th elast corner and I could get alongside and outbrake him in T1. Grats Malalala and Dan for the win.

Fantastic race for Team RVS, Dan and myself, a pb and pole too boot! Dan just wouldn't leave my beautiful Mosler alone and had to concede the lead lest we accidentally hit but as I'd compromised the gearing for longevity in the Mosler because of its fragile engine, it was going to be only a matter of time anyway. Apart from that the warmup lap was good and so was the racing, it was fun keeping up with the GT2's too! After Dan got past it was just a case of pacing myself, the car was a dream to drive, exremely consistent and enjoyable too, towards the end I even started to catch Dan slightly as he was being hassled by TT! most entertaining, grats to all and thanks for the racing.

Good race again...hard work...but enjoyable. Appologies to Spanner and Prof for falling off track twice on the warmup, and many thanks for letting me take position back. ...My wheel came lose as I started weaving Started reasonable again...matching the lads ahead til I touched the kurb at the last hairpin and lost it onto the grass....again. Managed to get back some places though, thanks to Spanners generosity and Prof/Bernie eccle falling off ahead of me. Congrats to tonights winners and podiums...and to the series winners. Good series this one...cant wait for S7.

I'm not sure what was happening, tonight. Got in, made a few laps, the car felt strange. Then I got a CTD. In the quali I was 1 sec off my pb until the very last few minutes, when I was only 0,8 sec off. The car also felt strange in the race, terrible understeer and $hite outta corners. In the end I got home 5th, after some mistakes from others and a courteous move from Madd-Rip who let me by mercifully in his Mosler. I can't understand, I made my setup yesterday, polished it off today, it felt great. TT

Lol, I was mostly making a battle against my car, it felt terrible and every exit was on the brink of disaster. Thanks, Madd. I guess I could pass Dan eventually as his tyres were getting worn, but the risk towards the end was too high. Also, my engine was down to 88%. TT
