Well done Sam, you had good race pace there.
Congratulations also to Tristan and Tim. Some amazing times being posted by both of you in qually and the race!
I also think that everyone deserves congratulating on the good clean start. It's not easy to keep it clean in these brakeless beasts.
After more than a week of house moving activities, my race preparation started at about 2pm when I began to re-assemble my desk! Everything emerged from its boxes and was plugged in in time for three laps on the server with Martin with about two hours to go. I then went back to shifting boxes.
I had badgered Simon into taking part but then the ratbag went and out qualified me!
At least he had the decency to make a lousy start!
For most of the race I was hanging on to Sam but then Axel and Evil caught me. Axel managed to pass me into T1, one of my no-brake corners, but just as I was hunkering down to make life difficult for Evil I slid gracefully onto the grass and gifted him the place!
I heard him laughing as he went past. I held on to him and we both passed Axel when he was facing the wrong way just after T4. I was very slowly gaining on Evil but not enough and that's how we finished.
I had 12 ltr of fuel left at the end so had over egged that side of things.
It was great fun and far more entering than shifting boxes about.
Many thanks to Axel for organising these races.
