Sorry, but I've decided to miss this one. A casualty visit with one of the kids yesterday put everything back, so have had no practice and a big pile of work to do. Shame, as I like Brno, but I don't do much GT driving atm so it would be silly to mess things up for the rest of you.
Have fun
Paul

Hmmm very quiet tonight I was hoping SBJ would make it so I could at least be racing someone! Managed to keep a pretty steady racepace and keep outta the way so it's all good practice for next week

Well done to Mike W, your pace was awesome. Great qualifying lap to take pole by quite some margin.
I tried the Lister tonight to see if that would increase my race pace. I wish I'd stuck to the Lambo now though as the Lister didn't half shred it's front tyres. Bloody awful understeer, terrible turnin to the corners and made a few mistakes in the first half, but my pit stop strategy got some of the time back as I was driving a very heavy car for the first half so that I didn't have to put as much in at the pit stop and save valuable seconds.

Boring race for me, there were about 5 propper NGT'ers, and they were all 2sec apart in pace in Qualify. I was second in Qual, and drove consistently to.... wait for it... second. My only fear was that I was pitting and others weren't but that wasn't so.

Had fun @ Brno driving with jamera until he spun (too bad it was fun) on lap 7 or 8, and after that was in 11th but the following lap I had a 1 fps problem show up once again, hope it didn't cause a problem for anyone when it happend. Damn I guess I'm gonna have remove the game and reinstall it one more time to see if I can correct this. You guys are lucky to not have this problem, very frustrating

Well fairly steady race tonight, not too many mistakes on my part, which is good. Two incidents that I will be reporting that I feel may have cost me a couple places on the night, but hey that's life. Not sure if I'd have been better pitting tonight, went straight through with front softs and rear meds, but pace dropped off a little towards the end as I started struggling with it. Still always next week to try that BTW way Doug, nice little tussle there for a while

[Removed incident discussion which is clearly in breach of the following rule: " Under no circumstances should drivers engage in discussion of incidents in a public forum (including in-game chat). In particular, no attempt should be made to apportion blame."]
Had no problems with other backmarkers - the guy in the BMW Z3 Coupe was superb.
On a side note - has anyone got an accurate way of knowing what fuel to put in - I ended up with over 21 litres still in my tank at the finish.

On here is not the the place to get into this, however I believe the rules say it is the lapper's responsibilty to pass cleanly WHEN SAFE to do so. I'll put an incident report and let the powers that be sort it out

Boring race, almost fell asleep to the end. Benchmarkers kept me awake, though I have nothing to complain - everybody let me pass w/o problems, straightaway. Even after a stoopid spin in the begining (I got scared by a Lister on my ass during braking) when I joined behind Fozzmeister and Matjaz in NGTs, they let me pass although they could block me for a few turns, very fair and safe driving.

Brno seems not to be a great race track. The race was fun if anyone was around... but as separation occurred all I did was race the clock. I figured I could not touch Matjaz, and Fozz had a time that I knew I would be lucky to match, so I just focused on Don ...Got him I was sure I was toast Don toward the end. Better luck next time. Jamera I did enjoy the bit we ran closely. I did not pit and had several offs... still managed a 3rd in class. I'll take it, ugly and all. Hope I stayed out of the GT's way, thought I was. Last race my Boss calls precisely a 2:00 with a huge emergency, I was able to get it all I solved and got in the race for qualifying. I was so wound up about the work situation that I could not manage a lap without wrecking.... I left totally pissed. Today my Mom comes over as qualifying starts bringing her PC for me to repair... I told her I was occupied and would get back with her. That didn’t go over too well. Not exactly the best situation to get focused on the race. Next race I'm going to put a sign on my front door saying GO AWAY! I'm Racing! Is the Porsche inferior at BRNO? There were only Ferrari's other than me, and the 360's seemed pretty well hooked up.

NGT drivers are specifically not allowed to alter line to allow GT driver through. It is our right to stick to the driving line, this is the case in real life and UKGTR rules.
