UUUU AAAAA No its a Fantastic MOD!
I Training Days bevor to make a little Set,but 1.20.2.. not Possible in Quali.P3 was Nice with a 1.20.8.. best Time for me.
At Racestart anyone give me a kick( NP Thats Racing ;)) and Damage my Wings Little bit, it was Hart to Drive the Car on Limit.I must do my Pitstop earlyer at end Round 17.At this Time with new Tires and half Full i Pusht so hart, to make a lot Time good to Blunder( with his Old Tires). I now he coming later at Pit and the Tires from him better at end then me.My taktic was Stay away from Blunder much i can^^, but he coming fast closer to me :o. 1 Round more and he catcht me ( LUCKY JUBEI ::)).

let me say BIG THANKS and Gratz all its so Super Nice Driving :-*

Greetings Jubei se ya on Track

Sorry guys should have said before. I was in Bristol and 50/50 next week as I get back from Ibiza fairly late and with no practise!

Can I not drop two rounds for points?  ;)

The worst 2 scores are dropped anyway.....you should know by now I think of everything  :laugh:

Personally I could do with more than 2 dropped scores, but that's just down to PPP....or maybe it's just the  EuronailedtothebackofthegridBrun  :-\

I was going ok last night and would have had a better result if I'd not been a bit urgent on the throttle at one stage and lost my front wing in the armco. I pitted and took 90 seconds of repairs which included an earlier than planned tyre change, so suppose it could have been much worse. I almost hit esc but glad I didn't as I enjoyed the challenge of driving back and managed to remain pretty consistent. In the end I was chuffed to salvage 5th.


Oh come on Manteos, it's drivers like you in slower cars that make these races so enjoyable for everyone. You were looking good for a pody last night  8)

Wow that was great fun.

Having missed last weeks race, ( sorry! ) was running no ballast so was determined to make that count!
Qualified in pole but found the first lap a struggle :(
Had a great race with Jubei all race but a half spin and coming across srw sideways in the middle of the track and having to come to a complete stop to avoid him meant I lost 20 secs! :(
( No worries srw!! by the way! thats racing! lol )
Luckily with new tyres I was catching Jubei fast but not fast enough as we flew over the line a second apart!
Really good fun, very intense! Dripping with sweat!... nice  ;D

Thanks all, this series is just awesome!

You should know me at this time... It was my usual "hot reaction"  ;D ;D

I'm sure that I'll try again to finish a race the next time ;)

Making a couple of considerations about the race, I was glad to be able to fight with Blunder and Sam Blood for some laps, despite they were at least 2.5/3 seconds faster every lap, it was making my race really exciting. Than I did a mistake when I was entering in the pit lane, and I received a Stop & go for exceeding max speed. That makes me feel crazy, but I decided to go on for another half lap, when my car spun cause of the tyre wear... so I pushed esc immediately... I was really furious!

Cu :)

That was a great battle last night Manteos. Now that I have the pleasure of carrying even more ballast for Suzuka I expect to be somewhat slower next time out. I have to say I'm falling in love with this mod the more I race with it. It's taken me a while to get to grips with the cars and to be honest, the March is the only car I've truly felt comfortable with. I struggled with the Lotus' and Ferrari's understeer last season and for the opening race but the March is superb  ;D.

Qualified in 4th and was looking good for the race but got caught out again on the cold tyres and spun out on the first lap, demoting me to last  :-[. A charge through the field followed and eventually found myself in 3rd about 20 seconds behind Jubei. By about half distance, my tyres were shot and needed to pit but alas, got caught out by the limiter and had to come in again for pit lane speeding  :hammer:.

That ended any chance of a win, but I tried my best and did catch Jubei a little bit. But, with a couple to go I tried too hard and ended up going off the track and losing my front wing. I decided to do the last couple of laps without a front wing as I didn't really know how long it would take to replace it. Managed to bag 3rd and I'm reasonably pleased with that result. Congrats to Jubei and Martin for the fine drives  :).
