Late in, no time for practice let alone the qually session  & was also going to be a little tighter on time for making the start of the race...
Could have done without the mother-in-law calling at that very moment just after 9PM  (who calls at that time of night?!); so missed out on the GT race by seconds.   Further more;  she has some internet/home-tech issue that needs some help tomorrow!

Meant I was back on bedtime duty & first drive was straight into qually session of the CanAms.  Ended up rather lonely out there; which was probably just as well.

Nevermind,   at least I could remember which way most of the corners went (from 2nd time round anyway).

Cheers,
Dave.

No problem Francesco !

After you hit me, my 917 made several "tetacou" as said Andrea De Cesaris in 1985 (see below) but was able to continue the race !!!

Damn shame I got disconnected from the GT race, because I was looking forward to seeing how Axel was going to get that bloody great tank of his past my Porsche.  :P

YEAH! shame!

I was just on your tail when you dissappeared  :o
My plan was to be close through OakTree and pass on the straight to have a gap to the finish line...

hi mate,,
no emails.
race days and  time don't change. its sunday Tuesday and Friday at 9pm uk time.
register here https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=12128.0
and rock up in igor before 9pm tonight #ukgpl

have any car, but there is a token system so if you have the lotus now you have to have the brm next time. I would take the braby first time out.
system explained here - https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?action=LM2R&group=426&theme=6

I think you are 5 hours behind so 4pm start.
good luck
