Notes:
(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see
cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules (https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?pid=7) especially the
rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and the relevant Tracks for this series
(4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit.

(5) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface (kerbs do not count as track surface)
Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

Brilliant race  ;D Was jousting with Frex and Allesandro for most of t
e race. Passed Allesandro once when he went wide, only to
throw it off at the next corner ::). Good racing all  :thumbup1:

After a sesaon or two in the 635 I thought I would try the Audi V8 again (I left it alone for a long time after it became broken in a game update awhile ago). Boy, am I pleased I did, as it is now even better than before, and will add it back to my long list of favourite cars to drive in RRE!

Race was super fun, although I did have many trips to the gravel whilst trying to explore the improved handling of the Audi.. Many thanks to Matt and Alessandro for the fun.

Congrats Pete and podium.

for this race I wanted to try the Mercedes, not bad but slow on the straight at the end of the tire problems but still fun race, congratulations to Pete very fast

Phew tuff race!

Pete diffidently had the pace in the Omega and the top 4 were separated by a few 100s of a second from qualifying so looking like it was going to be a good race! which it was!!

Ford great in a straight line with loads of power, corners is when the problems start  ;D and seeing that Sachsering has plenty of them, it took my full concentration to keep the thing from spinning! well until 7 mins from the end were I went a little wide and Geoffers took the opportunity to get up the inside. Tried to keep my foot in but it was to late round she went which was completely my own doing!

Happy with third and good racing with Riccardo, Grats to Pete and Geoffers you were a lot quicker than me in the race! hopefully the next race at Hungaroring with the long straight it will swing back into the Fords favour ;)

Funnily enough I enjoyed the race last night, had many many spins during practice and qualifying so I never expected to do the race without an off somewhere. Happy with the consistency although I did have a few moments so I think the gap was often increased by you guys behind fighting and putting each other off rather than any real superior pace :)

Maybe it was because there was no one on TeamSpeak last night giving me verbals  ;D

Think I should give up for the year now and remain unbeaten  ::)

Yep, enjoyed that outing in the M3. Lost a few places with a half spin at the end of lap 1, but then had great fun working my way back towards the front. Got up to 3rd within a few laps but catching John's Mustang took an age, only really gained when I think his tyres started to give up. Got past when he did a bit of mowing & then spun, tried hard to gain on Pete but he was just too quick  so had to settle for 2nd.

Congrats Pete & to John in 3rd.  :clap: :clap:

I've decided to participate at last second without any training.
This track is not my favourite.
During the race i was sure to be slower than the top drivers, but my goals was only to see checkered flag.
i've done.
funny moment when Martin passed me like a rocket and see him a moment later going in ground like a rocket  ;D.

Grats to podium
