Did anyone turn out for this? I was at Croft all weekend and didn't get back in time. Pity as Oulton is one of my favourites, but we are there on Tuesday and next Sunday, so I should make at least one of them.

lol and not one of us finished!!! but we were all on the podium ;D ;D

Grats to John for surviving the longest at Oulton and for making consistency pay throughout the season to take a very well deserved 2nd spot in the Masters league.

Grats also to Hristo for another comprehensive thrashing of us lesser mortals, all of whom deserve a pat on the back for taking on these sometimes tortuous circuits ( well they were for me!!)

I am aware that we are currently in the "holiday season" but taking that into account, Masters does seem to have suffered from dwindling grids lately. Hopefully the proposed "Challenge " series might revive some interest.

Very many thanks for all your hard work Steven over this and past seasons.  It's been a real pleasure having you on the moderating staff (and racing against you before you got too quick!)

May I wish you the very best of luck with iRacing.  UKGPL will be here if you ever fancy another run out in the 60's brutes!  :thumbup1:

Take care out there in the big bad world Steve. I hope you take to iRacing what you brought to GPL, a sense of humour and a great sense of fair play. That, and an insane desire to drive the underdog cars against the shiny quick machines ;).

Thanks for all you have done here Steve, and yes, we'd love to see you back here one day . :notworthy: :yes:

If not, I might have to come and get you!!!!! so watch your mirrors for an evil stare. 8)

Thanks Gents......and in honour of GPL, UKGPL and Ms. Fujikawa's team, my iRacing car shall forever carry their colours (hint: look at my new avatar).

Hopefully some way of forming leagues will be forthcoming in iRacing, and we can form iUKGPL  ;D
