Singapore runs to a European time schedule so race will start at 1pm UK time. Not sure about BBC's timings though if your a cheapskate ;)

Sorry guys, had to leave right away, I tested my guests patience enough as it was. ;)
Grats first to nsfast for the pole and a really bad luck in the race - one mistake, then overdriving would be my guess? Apex on the other hand was steady, fast and made no mistakes big enough for me to exploit. Grats on the win. 8)
F430 was not fast enough on a straight, even in slipstream, even with a wing of 3! :o In corners it was better than the porker but not fast enough to overtake. Good fun. :)

Duff race for me too after it looked like a top 5 was on the cards  :(

Qualied 4th and thought I had a good setup for the race. Seemed that way for first 5 laps running 4th albeit under pressure from spanner. Then everything went laggy and I ran wide. Dropped 2 spots and had a good battle with H@l and Pete in their fast beemers. But I then got spat off a kerb on the flat out uphill run, hit the Armco hard and broke my steering. Crabbed the car round to the pits where they then filled it to the brim and put 4 new tyres on  ::) and then a further 2 mins of repairs. :( was going to quit but thought I'd race on as normally a few retire or disco but nobody flipping did this time!  :D
Finished a duff 11th, rubbish as I like this track.

Congrats to Apex on the win and podium  8)

Love that combo 8)

Was stuck behind MJ in the early part but experienced a few brown trouser moments as you froze/ warped though thankfully fell off allowing me to just concentrate on driving. nsafast fell off so had someone to chase towards the end but i just couldnt close the gap as the rears went off and overheated as i was sliding too much. With only about 5mins left nsfast seemed to be struggling but i just couldnt get past by the end. Another lap i might have.... lol

Sadly i dont think the GT1's are going to be quite so fun.
