UKPnG Season 8 British Historic Cup - Snetterton - Nov 7

[Johnny X]

I'll probably be around for this race. Can't miss the opportunity to drive my favourite PnG vehicle (275 S). As long as the day goes well at work with our visit from Jaguar I'll be there.

[Clive Loynes]

The Ferrari is loads of fun to drive and sounds great!

Hope you make it home in time.

My pc has finally decided to call it a day  Looks like I'm out for the foreseeable future until I decide exactly what I'm going to replace it with.

Have fun.

Sorry to hear that GT, here's a cheap option to replace tonights race;

Haha. Thanks for that Stig. Just make sure you beat Clive for me

Sorry to hear that GT, looks like Frex & I will have to try extra hard to fend off the massed ranks of the Soggies!

Who are you calling rank? 

[Mogget]

I really wanted to race here, but I came home from work with a bad headache and really tight muscles in my neck and upper back. I had to play it safe, but hopefully I will be in better shape next week.

[IvanStanchev]

My wheel gave up again. Hope can fix it. Great first laps chasing Clive and NP but the wheel started to go off throttle then stopped working.

[Johnny X]

Apologies to Postal. Think we made contact a couple of times early on. First time I got pushed into you by A N Other at the tight right after the bridge, I did back off to let you and half the field past. 2nd time was my fault entirely going into T1.

I don't think I'm cut out for on-line racing. I try to keep as safe as possible and usually end up going backwards early on because I'm so cautious but I just can't seem to mix it without getting into trouble. To be honest I'm sure the main problem is (and I'll pause while you all laugh heartily..........) that I currently use a pad to race. My wheel is bust and it'll be a while before a new one arrives on the scene. Because of that I just don't have the "control" to mix it, particularly with aggressive opponents who don't know that I'm going to be braking very differently, steering differently and accelerating differently. Think I'll give the on-line stuff a miss till after the new year when, hopefully, I'll be using better gear.

Anyways, sorry again Postal... see you all later.

[Animal Ed]

Ok. second race in a row I have disco 2 laps to go.
Actually not disco because there is no "lost connection" message - everybody just disappeared ... what is going on? 

Just checked my firewall and nothing to do with it or my connection...

[NPP]

A rather average race for me. Apologies to Animal Ed for hitting him after going too hot into the final chicane. I waited and let Ed through, together with Frex and Clive. There were a couple of laps of good racing, I made it past Clive and Frex (possibly a bit robustly, but, I hope, still ok), before losing it at T2 and ending up back in 10th - my usual spot. I then tried to catch up with Frex but I only managed to close about half the gap by the end of the race. I made up one place when Ed stopped but, once again, I really should have done better ...

Sorry again, Ed, for the hit at the chicane.

I could still see you on the S/F straight, you stopped before T1 and seemed stationary for a while

[Stefan aka Postal]

Yeah, had a great start and was anticipating some good scraps. Felt bad being bumped off three times, but as you where saying Johnny. I believe people waited after an accident.
After that it was my turn at a mistake; eager to get back on pace i was passed earlier by Alex and Legzy. Going into T1 with the Fezza's dodgy brakes and still coldish tires it was going to be hard outbraking a Lotus.. Especially when Legzy was already truing to negotiate the turn in front of us. Misjudged that one a bit there, so my apologies to Legzy.

Johnny, dont give up so soon. Maybe it is a good idea buying some second hand Logitec wheel of some sort. However i believe having more online practice, you get used to other drivers around and how everybody reacts on track.

That indicates connection problem.

Now I`m officially confused because it must be on my side otherwise others would have the same problem.
