S28 - Friday Trophy - Round 14 - CanAm71 - Zolder 67

The next race of this season will be at Surfers Paradise International Raceway, a motor racing complex at Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. The 3.219 kilometres (2.000 mi) long circuit was designed and built by Keith Williams, a motor racing enthusiast who also designed and built the Adelaide International Raceway (AIR) in South Australia in 1972.  The circuit was mainly used for Sports Car racing most notably in 1966 when Jackie Stewart and Andrew Buchanan won the Group A Sports Cars race in a Ferrari 250LM.  Formula 1 cars never raced here but there was a race for Open-Wheel cars in 1975 in the guise of the Australian Formula 1 series.  

Remember: for the LIGHT drivers the most popular car will be dropped for the rest of the season! Look at the bottom!

Sorry to Taber(i think) or who was the first.I was without mirror and without indication with pribluda.So i have seen the blue flag but i have no others indication about position and distance.My race was stated under the worst auspicies.After only 5 laps the first engine.

Sorry Iestyn for spinning in front of you! I was focused on the car in front of me, and I didn't realize the leaders were coming up to lap us. If I had, I would have pulled over and slowed down.

I was having a great race before all that happened. I joined the server at the last minute, and I used my Albi set-up without any changes. I took the first few laps to get comfortable behind the wheel. Then I had a nice battle for all but the last five laps of the race. Good race!

Walter evened things out for me somewhat. :) When we wrecked I immediately thought, "what was he thinking?!" Then I yelled damn. :lol: You could have looked to your right and saw me. I looked to my left to see if I thought you were going to let me by.

There's a *.3do in the can am cars' folders such as C:\GPL\cars\canm71\lotus\Virtual mirror. Copy that .3do into the C:\GPL\cars\canm71\lotus\ folder and you'll have a mirror you can see in the M8F. Each car folder has a virtual mirror for that car.

I thought Fran thought I needed a handicap. Up to the point of accident, I was fast without taking any real risks. I wanted to get away from Iestyn, knowing he would be as fast or faster than me after several race laps. Heavy on fuel after the reset made it impossible for me to gain on Iestyn. It had already been too long and Iestyn was up to speed. What had started as a good consistent run turned into a mad scramble to catch Iestyn. It went from calm and cool, to desperate and intense.

What happened Axel? Did you not have a grid position like Dean the week before? It was a shame you didn't get to race with Dean or Iestyn or try to put any pressure on me.

Congrats Iestyn, Dean! If I were driving my best and Iestyn started near me, that could have been a very intense race for the win.

Thanks guys.

Absolutely no.For a reason that i not explain becouse too long,i had to change the pilot but with somne problem on pribluda and also on visibility.
Sorry again what is good is that the final result is not changed.
