Good fun last night, enjoyed the race throughout. Just couldnt make any in-roads to the front 4 despite seeing them about 100m ahead most of the race. It sounds like i might have had the wrong ratio again but thats my penalty for not being able to practise before the night so will take it on the chin.
Race start:- Nearly suffered my third consecutive lap1 incident when someone alongside me on the left decided that my car didnt exist, despite being there for several hundred metres! and pulled right into me from behind the car ahead of him (do some race in horse blinkers?!) - i had a car on my right so couldnt go anywhere and had to bail out the throttle to avoid us having an almighty crash that would have taken several cars with us. Of course this meant everyone behind me got a run on me
Luckily for me they were fairly cagey on the brakes up at the first hairpin and i kept my position (ish).
Got a run on Syd quite early on in the twisties and got past whilst battling one of the new guys for a few laps. He then fell back and i was chasing Maxime for quite a while until i got a squirmy exit out of the final hairpin which let them gain a sec or two up the road
Syd got closer and closer and chased me for a long while until he got back past me. Oddly, he then couldnt drop me
despite making up several seconds to catch me, and we raced very closely for the majority of the race until he binned it in the final sector whilst we battled hard. Good fun.
I had an easier time for the last 10mins, though had to be aware Syd and Geoff were only 3 secs behind so couldnt afford any errors on my worn boots.
Finished 6th i think
Nice track/car combo
