My Monza jinx hits again . Had a bit of a set to which sent me way, way into the sand with a puncture. Gave up trying to get out, when I was lapped. I think my non-stopper might have been a winner as well. Oh well, quali was fantastic fun.

Bit of a disaster here too. Managed to press the clutch and not the brake for Parabolica After extrcating myself from the beach, and just after I pass the pit entrance, the crew tell me I've lost the front splitter. Then I get spun round in the first chicane on my lap to the pits. After my 104 sec pitstop to repair the damage I was 1:33 behind the car in front. Got that down by 30 secs before the ADSL went AWOL. First disco I've had for an age. Saved me the pain of another 50+ mins "racing". Seems like the ADSL has been much more unreliable again. I thought this max thing had settled down but it's started to give me grief again

I'm so gutted :'( :'( :'( PB in quali and pole, leading by 20sec+ around lap 15 and PC froze coming off the parabolica. I hit esc but not much happened, keyboard wasn't being very responsive so I hope I didn't damage anyone elses race. Quali was awesome, first 2 runs I had to abort because of traffic but the 3rd was clear and took .4 off my PB. Then sat in the pits watching Jon drive the wheels off the Lister, ending up about 0.06s behind, was top class stuff!

First off, real sorry to SBG, was lookin forward to our usual great on track battles there, but you just caught me out when you hit the brakes earlier than i expected you too, i tried desperately to avoid you but the 'tow' just meant i had too much momentum. Was hoping you would rejoin as i managed to, but alas no. Sorry mate. Guessed some buggers were no stopping in the early laps when i was able to steam past everyone i met on track Had great early pace and was flying well, but the incident with SBG left me back down in 19th by the time i rejoined. I then spent the race chasing everyone down and was very pleased when i caught back up with Don. However yet again, my lazy ass pitmen let me down and despite being right behind Don at the pit stops, i came out 21 seconds down after them...b*astard mechanics Then couldnt match Dons pace for last 15 minutes and when i did start catching i clumped a spinning back marker who went across my bows out of the 2nd chicane...cost me about 15-20 seconds :'( My worst result for a while and a shame to end a great season like it, but well done to my team mates and the NGT winners...even if they did win by no-stopping A fantastic season of endurance, had some great battles along the way, cheers guys.

Great qualifying, I took 0.7s off my PB to grab 3rd with just about 0.1s between SBG, Shark & I. Decided last minute on a no-stopper, I thought "what the hell" as there wasn't much to play for in the standings. Never having driven for that long before I took it waaaay too easy for the first 40 minutes but was still in 4th when Shark, then Tyf came in to pit leaving me 2nd behind Truetom. It was deja vu as I followed Truetom for another 40 minutes, just as I did in S2 Sprint. Decided to push it for a bit for the last 15 minutes but Truetom wasn't for cracking tonight, great drive mate And to make matters worse, Shark pipped me on the line to take 2nd, there can't have been more than 0.5s between 1-2-3. Great drive Shark as you didn't 'cheat' Fantastic season, some great driving and some close battles, it's great there's so much close competition. And a big for Shark for taking the NGT title!

Gutted for you Zacari. You were leading by a country mile. Qualifed on pole, very pleasing, just 0.1 off my PB, with SBG and Pops with almost identical times to me. Zacari on GT pole was fantastic, Team Shark 1 - 2 of a fashion. Perfect race for me was miles ahead of everyone else in NGT (which was brilliant for me as i don't like Monza and have never gone well there) and found TrueTom and Pops doing no stoppers (have you no shame?! :'(). Could also have done a no stopper as my tyres were brilliant, but not really in the spirit of Endurance imho. Anyhow, chased them 2 down and caught them on the very last lap, just pipping Pops 911 by a whisker across the line as i caught his draft with TT just metres ahead too. Had I not been clipped across the start finish line by a lapping GT I might have got TT as well, we'll never know. Quite a good save by me (must have a look at the replay on that) as was pushed onto the grass and my heart was in my mouth as I managed to keep control. Lost me 3 - 4 seconds though which was gutting cause I was catching the leaders hand over fist at the time. Great racing again, have thoroughly enjoyed this season, probably more than any other so far. Endurance is so satisfying. Have to wait for the final results, but Team Shark have a podium in the NGT of some sort (2nd or 3rd not sure yet). Well done guys, good stuff. I think that is CeeJay, Boyd and Krueger top 3 in GT, congrats and Me, SBG and I think Mark in NGT. I'm scheduling some exciting new endurance stop gap races for the coming Sundays SO DON'T GO ANYWHERE!

Well had to send CJ and Krue away to get it but finally got a Win!! Qual was crap, Ive not run many laps there at all especially in the GT's I think I did my PB actually and was still 5th like .0XX behind mo. My only mission was to wrap up the season and get back my 2nd place spot from Krue, so I just planned to cruise. Seemed to work pretty good. mo was bit off pace early so I ran up beside him and he backed off so I guess I got a freeby there, and then I guess it was spacefox in the Saleen got loose heading onto back straight wich gave me and easy run by. Saw JonM off in a cloud of dust early too, so quickly found myself in 2nd. Zac was as you blokes would say, "going like bloody hell" so I just settled in and figured Id see what happened. Swapped 2nd a couple times with mo as we each made mistakes in one place or the other, but after my pit I had a pretty good lead since Zac had discoed by then. Somewhere around lap 25 I was coming up on Maveric and another porka that was I think a lap down to him, and going into 1 I punted maverick pretty good despite braking like 30m before my normal point. Guess maybe you were being more cautious due to the lapper on the inside, but anyway sorry, I was REALLY trying to be carefull and patient. Anyway I had 40+ sec by that point so I went ahead and did a drivethrough for good measure and came out with a 30 sec lead and about 10 laps to go. mo was makeing time some laps and I was others, guess we were both just being carfull in trafic. Anyway Easy does it proved to work again, I'll take it its been a fun season, thanks for having us, Id love to do somthing in the nGt's, they are my favorite Cheers Darin

Great season thanks to all who took part or organised it!! Not a good race for me quali was disastrous and the race wasn't much better!. Managed to work my way up to 3rd when I caught a back marker at Ascari, I had to change my line and when I put the power down the rear came round fast but I managed to catch it unfortunately then it went the other way and into the barrier!!. After a 110 second pit stop I rejoined in 14th place just ahead of JonM and managed to keep him at bay for afew laps but then I caught a kerb wrong and lost it again. Spent the last laps chasing down Enz13 and got a run on him into parabolica but we touched and he went off so it was back to the pits for a drive through :'( . Still a fitting end to a season that started so badly for me but it was worth the pain! once again many thanks y'all and see you soon...

Great race with lots of battles for me Firstly sorry to TT who I lost count of how many times I tapped (still couldn't stop you in the end ) I had a full tank at the start of the race and was ready to do a non stopper but ended up melting my tyres trying to get round TT into T1 and ended up playing it safe and getting a fresh set of rubber. Had a bit of a battle with Tyf after that and was praying the race would go the full time to try and catch out all those non stoppers Thanks to all the winners and losers for a great season

In your own time mate . And thanks to you, Maurice and everyone behind the scenes. No worries Mark. You were not to know I was trying sneaky non-stopper and driving conservatavely. Shark, might argue that it was karma or something . Its been a real pleasure racing with a number, I think there are about 6 of us with similar pace, of you gents this year.
