I've done some further tinkering with the new router - please let me know in practice if my conn's any good. If it's still rubbish I'd rather bail and let you lot race in safety than worry I'll magically appear inside some ones cockpit with them  ;)

I've been doing further tinkering and testing - My speeds and ping are barely out of 56k modem territory (100Mb my posterior!) so for you own sakes I'll miss tonights race.
If you're offered a superhub from Virgin tell them where to stick it!

Very sorry to Goran and Andreas for ruining their races. I was using an old setup from my previous steering wheel and forgot to correct the amount of steering lock, so I could barely take the corners in the race and once the car went into a slide onto the grass, I couldn't catch it and it went into Goran's car. Then I thought I needed to get myself off the line to make way for the upcoming cars, but went right into the path of Andreas.  :(

First of all:
SORRY for the tight grid, I don't know how this happened, as I have the loose one installed...
But the pros did manage it!!!

Not my track in the BRM...

But great racing with Clive! He took back every inch of my advantage I had gained by his little spin  :P

No problem H but I must confess I was puzzled at the time, I remember thinking, "H use to have better car controll than that", good to have the explanation.

Like I said before: "Shit happens, or: "Sometimes You loose and sometimes the other win."
Looking forward to the next one.
