Sorry for the first lap incident, all my fault (slight mitigation of violently flickering red car on my left hand side causing me to miss the braking point).... couldn't be arsed to race after that, as I think I spoilt 4/5 people's race, so just retired.

Realy and totally pi**!d off with Gpl right now. Friday night in qually the mouse pointer changed to some weird heiroglyph and clicking on any button had no effect. Too late to join server after pc reboot. Tonight the same problem, with the added weirdness that clicking one setting, e.g. camber one notch it set the totally opposite. Also I couldn't access any previous setups  ? But got back in for the race, made slight-very slight- contact with the back of Rog.uk at the melee on the first lap and the car was launched like an ICBM. This at about 3mph!! After sng and Shift-R I came down to the hairpin at the end of the straight, outbraked myself, swung the wheel LEFT to get room to make the cut through back to the track and the damn thing went right- explain that one. Stuck in the wall, one reset already taken, goodnight all. Hope everyone had a more successful night of it. Cya Tuesday. |

great fun while it lasted. fair qually, good start. missed the troubles at turn 1 so lucky there. got down to have some decent racing somewhere middle to rear of pack and was really enjoying it. did myself another disservice by being a little too cautious and staying wide so as not to cause any probs, but caused myself to run wide and touch the dirt... so off I went  did my one and only shift R but sorry to say I appeared on the track in front of someone else. sorry and hope it didn't cock things up for anyone else. It shot me up in the air a bit but didn't seem to do any harm. car was handling just as badly as before so i knew i was alright. i think its was the car that followed me into pits so i hung back a bit and gave the place back. took my pitstop and went out to another good session of racing, but once again run wide while spending more time looking in my mirrors than where i was supposed to be going and ended up in the hay. so no shift R's left, so an early bath for me. hope it went on to be a good un for whoever was left racing. till next time... Paul. V. |

Change of Rules Bernie - only 1 shift R this season. It might encourage people to drive a little more carefully - maybe not!

Had a cracking race with Bernie early doors. Got away from him after Bernie stopped for a pie. Chased down Billy and passed him to get up to fifth but a few little errors dropped me back and then I went off at the dreaded corn trying to give Fran room. Found myself racing... Bernie  Finally some close racing and then I span out at the last turn. Then accelerating away from that my pedals got stuck so I couldn't accelerate but Geoff bumped me across the line... Fun race but ultimately disappointing. |

When ed?
The importer found you as an historic driver so I had to correct it manually. There is no record of you having joined the team. Did anyone send you an invite?
You may need to reply.

For those who got confused, I ve driven in a us league F2 before we started with it and I had to use my real name, Thomas Oulie, and it came up as T Oulie I think. I slept all day and didn t even have time to dress before qually.(thx god my mom didn t drop by). Seahrced desperatly for a setup since I didn t remember what car I used. Found a Mclaren and of I went. My teammate Al tried heroicly to help me with some draft but I was too clumsy to take advantage, however with full tanks on last lap I was in lucky drafts that seem to work for quiet some distance and got up from bottom to midfield. As we know there was a clinch among the first cars and I found myself on 3 rd. It lasted until I missed brakingpoint before the hairpin busy looking in mirrors. Started to count signs 1, 2, hey WTF  and off I went. I was rewarded with a very interresting race with Evil,Al and some laps later Tim and Natan (Ithink). I think Evil Al and me made so much trouble for each other that we were caught. Evil was unfortunate to go wide,or was there a touch? with few laps to go and I decided to lurk behind the pack of three and see what opportunity might come.I saw my chance to glue Al in his efforts and we managed to get 1 st and second of the pack  wich gave Al 4 th and me 5 th .fun race. Sorry for the lots who had too end it way too early. |
