What happened Dan?
...i was looking forward to a great battle on track after the qually fight
One minute you were behind me on the warm up lap, then not
Fantastic race from start to finish, didnt know what car to take as i enjoyed driving the Ferrari 275, the TVR and the GT40. Went for the Tiv in the end even though i was a few secs faster in the GT. I wanted some good close racing.
The qually sesh was great, traded times with Dan and T.Cooper for most of the session, sitting nicely behind the aliens up front in their GT40's (like they need 'em
) in 6th place which i eventually qualied at. Even beat some GT40's which i was very pleased with
Race was superb, i stayed about 1-1.5 secs just behind Greg in his GT40 for about 11 of the 20 laps with T Cooper in another GT40 about 4 secs back, until my back end got a bit out of shape twice in one lap...i think the tyres were starting to tell me i was pushing too hard to stay with Greg
I fell back into the clutches of TC who closed up on me for a couple of laps. But i then eased away from him to a 4 sec gap once again and after getting nicely by a few gentlemen backmarkers, who were having their own scrap, (cheers guys) brought the car home in a cool 6th place behind the GT40 gang.
Great stuff, really enjoyed it and my TVR setup felt great all the way through. I expected the tyres to give up the ghost towards the end but i was still able to do laps within a second of my race best of 1:58.
