Best race ever for me I thinks.

Managed to get pole (first time with the GT's) TT got passed me on lap 2 I think then I was chasing hard all race then 6 or 7 laps left he went into the gravel a bit and I got passed but he was hot on my heals for a few laps then I seemed to slowly pull away.

well happy. Great racing.

might not be here for Spa cos I'm at Knockhill on Sunday and it's about 2-2.5H drive from me depending on traffic and how long it takes McD's to  get my dinner ready but if I am back in time I will race.

P.S. nsfast can you send me an invite to the team please as I believe I am no longer in it. Chears.

congrats QS, that was a fast pace you were going last night, you seem to have taken a big step forward lately, a few months ago we seemed to be about the same pace

Grats QS, well driven. Was on edge more or less the whole race and I had to cross it sooner or later. :)

I was hoping to attend this race but, I could not make it in the end.

I had even done some practice and made a setup the day before. I did have connection issues during on line practice though. :( I still have not sorted the issue out that I have had since changing to a new router.
