UKGPL Season 25 FUN - Spa - Aug 25

[Cookie]

The F1 summer break ends this weekend and so we will do a convenient 67 revival at Spa Francorchamps 67
 
Free choice of chassis but I would ask the Works drivers do not take the Lotus or the Eagle.
A maximum of one reset is allowed per race & must be followed by a compulsory Stop & Go in the pit lane within two laps of the Reset.

Please restrict chat to pit messages including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line.

is the new spa 67 out yet?

No track yet.  Would've been good to see it the same day as the modern GP there.  But it is nearing completion -  I suspect the Summer weather has gotten in the way.

I was unlucky to come round a corner on L2 and find Sky having a moment to himself at Stavelot, and couldn't avoid colliding with the remains of his car. 2 laps later I saw Clive having a moment halfway through Malmedy. Didn't hot Clive, but only cos I drove into the shrubbery to avoid it...

Got bored and frustrated after these 2 offs, and after a couple of self-inflicted moments decided to be somewhere else. Off to buy comfort food before the shop shuts.......

That was really good fun. Surprised my self by qualifying p2. Got a good start but forgot how to change up so followed cookie for a bit, being very cautious, so much that deano went past. Then picked up the pace and passed him, only for him to have moment later on ( I hope it wasn’t avoiding me as you were close behind, soz if it was) then cookie lost it and was 1st woo hoo. Lost the plot a bit after that, spun, blew engine, spun again and the forgot the masta kink was a left then a right  , shame. Well done to all who finished, and grats to podium.

Thanks all

No prob Gareth

Even though i was very close it wasn't you that got me in trouble.

I was trying very hard to stay with you and maybe get a draft ,but going into Turn 3 at the top of the hill ,for some reason the rear let go and made one of those slow slides ending on the inside bank ,took me a few seconds to check pribula for approaching cars and reverse back onto the track ,after that it was just being clean and hoping for the best ,well i did have an issue with a crazy fly in my cockpit? >:(that little bugger nearly got me killed ? i had a fly swatter near so i tried to smash the bugger but went off the road instead ,thinking better of the whole thing i ignored him for the remainder of the race  .

would have enjoyed the dice ,but i didn't happen,a few laps later i was in front and trying to drive straight and true 

good fun all
