Oops , forgot my race report..
Great track , difficult setup and too little laps done before the race. Some troubles there in the start but nothing to do there but pray and i got through with only minor damage. 1st laps were good racing but then i had bad luck in bus stop with the spinned car which turned out to be a ghost , anyway i tried to avoid it and hit the wall , loosing 2 positions and that was basicly the turning point of the race.
I couldnt catch the cars in front of me so i decided to try something , which could help my team mate later on and took only fuel. I had allready some extra fuel onboard and i needed only 40 litres , so pitstop was only 16.5 seconds and i got ahead of Darin , Jon and Rich. Didnt take long before Jon catched me and just couldnt keep him behind very long. I knew the tires would not last the whole race , but it was a bit shock , when i got a tirewarning 11 laps before end
... in Spa
... anyway , continued my desperate struggle and had a good fight with Rich , while Darin was catching us , but EauRouge turned out to be the fate of Darin this time and that ment that i was now the 2nd point scorer for the team. Tires were totally gone at that point and Rich had an easy job to just wait till i skated a bit off the racing line and there went the podium.
It was good fun while it last and i have to thank Jon and Rich for their patience while they were stuck behind my slow and wide F575
, good racing there..thx for keeping it clean
.
Cya soon in Anderstorp , hoping to have better luck there...
