A bit of a damp evening in my part of England, so I thought I would pop in & have a bit of fun with you guys. However things didn't quite go to plan  Roll Eyes. Downloaded & installed the cars & track OK & did a few practice laps offline to get some sort of setup. But as I hadn't raced GTL here for sometime, when I went to join the server, I couldn't, had the wrong lobby file! By the time I got it all sorted qually had started.

Started 3rd & as Erling said bogged down off the line, far too few revs, & held up Clive behind, sorry Clive. 5th at the end of lap 1 became 3rd as MaiPor & Jose went off at T1 & I was chasing Bob & Erling for a couple of laps until losing it under braking for T3 & collecting Erling, apologies Erling. MaiPor went by as we sorted ourselves out & I got 3rd back a lap later when Erling messed up T3 all by himself.

Managed to reel in the two leaders & took Bob for 2nd around half distance. Chased MaiPor & got quite close a couple of times only to nearly spin at the LHer under the bridge with 3 laps left. Gap was now up to 4.5s so any chance of the win was now gone, so I thought. Then 3 corners from home MaiPor spun off & I sailed past into the lead  Grin, only to inexplicably change into top far too early up the hill to the finish & lose drive & the win  Roll Eyes.

Congrats to Marc, very well driven, & to Erling in 3rd.

Very enjoyable race, I will have to drop in more often. Cheers guys, see you again soon.  thumbup2

I think I need a brain transplant!

I did suspect that a plain brown envelope had exchanged hands at the start, when Geoffers parked his red bus very effectively, and I had to watch Erling ( and a few others) sweep past.  taz
It did not really change my race...

After that I was swearing at a car that was just not handling like the one I drove in qually, and wrestling with what felt like a shopping trolley to extract a decent lap time, I discovered approx half way through the race (as I was running out of fuel ) that I had loaded the wrong setup!!!

I think I must invest a little more time practising with the GTL cars, instead of just doing a few recce laps and then turn up and race on the night...the lack of preparation always bites me in the a**.

... Best moments were the excellent three way dogfight with Kurt and Hayman. That aside it was a rather dull affair. ...
Championship is looking a bit tasty tho.

Fun race for me.  Not very often I'm ever in first place but then for 6 laps is  unheard of.  Was a real job keeping Erling behind me for that long.  We were kind of doing the old rubber band thing, he would catch me in the twisty's and the Ford would pull away on the straights. Then Mai Por and Geoffers passes us both.  By that time my tire's were gone and The XB wouldn't turn at all in the tighter corners.  Erling got me when I went wide, and  Jose passed me at the end.   Did what I could to finish in the best place possible, 5th.  A lot better than I thought I would that's for sure.  Always a good track for these cars......Thanks for the races!

Had a fair race, I'm still racing in the middle of the field, usually racing with Tony but surprisingly this time I was much faster, had a good start but around T2 I was kicked out, but i went back on the track and had a nice battle with misnoimis for a few laps and finally coasted 8th overall, I have to say those American muscle cars are really nice to drive.

Hope to see u in next race ..... Regards from Lebanon
