Back to RRE this Sunday in these wallowing barges! I have to say The RRE and AC versions of this car seem quite different. I find the RRE version very unpredictable under heavy braking and very easy to lock up. Not sure which is a more accurate simulation of real life

And for me it's the other way round. The AC version is almost undrivable, I am rubbish at the R3E one as well, but
I can get it round without falling off much.  ::)

despite the low turnout (probably due to it being a bank holiday) I enjoyed that race, I am finally starting to feel more confident in this RRE version and can push a bit more without falling off all the time.

The next round of the RRE series is at Zolder, another one of my favourite tracks, hopefully we will see a few more faces turn up

I was surprised to be able to keep John in sight for a few laps, but Frex was catching slowly, so when he got close
I moved over to let him have a crack, and it looked like they had a decent fight  :fencing: I started making mistake when the
tyres wore some pushing too hard, was a good race, of course would have been better with a few more  ::)

Tricky car tricky track good racing.

Shame more didn't join would have been good with a few more drivers. Really impressed with Frez pace 1/2 second quicker than me and caught up easily, but passing around this track is another thing with all having the same car.
Grats to the podium to the next one!

Sorry I have been an absentee recently for the Sunday RRE races, it's a combination of being busy on most Sundays recently & not really being a fan of Porkas. As I said after Thursday's 964 race I have never got into the way of driving them & once every 3 weeks is more than enough for me. Will be back more regularly on Sundays when there is a car(s) that interests me more.

Thanks, but I was rather sorry that you capitulated so readily - you had good pace and could have been a good 3 way fight. But yes, I did indeed have a good battle again with John - the trouble is though he never makes mistakes! Whereas I make lots..

Thanks to all, congrats JP.
