Title: 'Days gone bye' presents: Enna-UKGTR-27-7-05 Post by: LEUVEN on August 02, 2006, 11:42:49 PM +0100 Well, whilst waiting for my pedals to arrive I decided to watch an old replay from the archives. 8)
Hmmmmmmm, hey what looks like a sprint race at Enna , this should be fun. :scared: ;D A nice reasonably full grid lines up to take the formation lap. Unfortunately not everybody makes it round cleanly, but no major damage and all form up to cross the start line. GO,GO,GO.............Fast forward all the way to the turns 1 and 2 for the first incident. :lol: ( You have to laugh, allthough saddening at the time, it's funny now.) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/LEUVEN/My-Pics/Enna-Theearlydays.jpg) A familiar scene? (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/LEUVEN/My-Pics/multimilliondollarscrapyard.jpg) Swiftly moving on to the notorious first chicane. Three into one rarely works, especially here! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/LEUVEN/My-Pics/Youknowwhatscomingnext.jpg) Here it comes.....this is gonna be messy! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/LEUVEN/My-Pics/Thisisgoingtobemessy.jpg) An all to familiar scene in the early days, or you could just pop online right now ;) All that fantastic action was from the first lap, with many familiar names fighting just to survive :o Eventually Shark brought it home safely followed by FlyBri and Ginsters, all earning well deserved podium spots. I'm sure you'll agree that it looks like driving standard has thankfully improved a great deal. :thumbup2: Title: Re: 'Days gone bye' presents: This time last year-27-7-05 Post by: mclaessen on August 03, 2006, 12:17:31 AM +0100 Whooo Enna. Dangerous track. Combined with our driving back then it's a deathtrap lol :D
This is what should lead the field in the pacelap :tank: and drive over the stupid chicane things :D Title: Re: 'Days gone bye' presents: This time last year-27-7-05 Post by: ginsters sponsored on August 03, 2006, 08:59:55 AM +0100 Us oldies were racing GTR before rubber was invented ;D.

Thanks for the memories GTR :) Here you go: https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?ind=lm2&event=17 That can't have been an easy race to moderate, thinking about it Enna full stop can't be an easy track to moderate. ;D Title: Re: 'Days gone bye' presents: This time last year-27-7-05 Post by: Jeffrey on August 03, 2006, 07:27:16 PM +0100 Lol, 8 places lost, is that a record ;D

Not that not to bad, We had to ban a driver for a round for making contact at least 5 times in every race since the season started, repeated peniltys, freindly help, warnings you name it we tryed it were left with no other option.Not 8) |
