What happened to NFSW? I have 2 race entries for him in the results but no lap times so I don't know which to delete, Huracan or Audi?

I joined during practice but due to the described technical problems I couldn't continue or set a laptime. Please leave me out of the results if possible.

Really enjoyed that and I seem to be getting my enthusiasm back for it after a few public races in PC2 at the weekend.

Despite having old setups for the Audi i've never been happy driving it, the backend always seemingly too loose at times and the front end seeminly easy to lose grip. So decided to go for bigger changes this time and they definately helped.

Spent all race chasing Jari so it was never dull, until he spun with 5mins to go, really randomly.

I've missed this...Can we just do a GT3 championship???

We will be doing an RRE GT3 series starting in September, then probably do an AC GT3 series in January
