Moderator's Report

Headlights should not be permanently turned on during fair weather daylight races except by class leaders.

  • crowcaution — driving with lights on


Server replay time: 44s

Maverick is very slow away at the start, and when he finally gets going it seems he spins the rears up and spears left across the track, catching Rob B and Edza in the process.

  • maverickadvice — take more care during the start on cold tyres


Server replay time: 1069s

Adam Parle touches Crow's rear at the end of the braking zone for Coppice, pushing him onto the grass and allowing both Adam and Don to pass him. Adam had room on the outside to avoid contact, but Crow braked a touch earlier than the lap before so I'm reducing this to just a caution.

  • Adam Parlecaution — rear ending Crow
    For advice only - unreported by victim, so penalty disregarded


Server replay time: 1267s

Rob B gets the Old Hairpin wrong and spins in front of Adam Parle, who runs into him.

  • Racing incident


Server replay time: 1300s

Adam has 80% overlap on Rob B as they head towards Coppice. Adam brakes slightly earlier and harder but cannot back out fully, and Rob turns across him. Adam spins as a result.

Adam still had substantial overlap at the turn in point and in my opinion Rob was lucky not to be the one spinning out. Rob says he knew Adam was in his blindspot, yet he chose to turn in anyway; 90% of the time the person ahead will end up being spun out.

Adam felt guilty for this one but he was so far alongside Rob into the braking zone that he was never going to be able to back out of it fully, and Rob should've have left him room.

Cheers for the lapchart Ruskus. I seem to have only completed one lap which would maybe indicate why every other car disappeared after that.... Shocked

Very wierd indeed! Especially seeing as I completed at least 12/13 laps!

...I kept looking in my mirrors expecting you to catch up again.

I was hoping too, but a couple of spins in quick succession left my rear tyre temps through the roof Sad, shame really, as Crow, your good self and I were nose to tail for a good while having a right tussle.

Great fun and good clean racing. However despite recent post on driving standards, I still had trouble with two back markers who tried to race me and wouldnt move off line, one cost me 3 seconds on one lap Sad , can only presume they didnt have name/position tags on Huh

I hope I'm not one of these .... you were behind and infront of me for a while, after passing me you slid off at the final turn, but I don't think I held you up too much....

A cracking race, great fun.  Cool

Qualied 7th despite setting a 1:42 Shocked time in a hastily scrambled together setup which seemed to work really well at Donington as i was able to throw the car through the different undulating corners. Amazing pace as always up front, getting a top 10 place is a real feat lately Lips Sealed
Race started great with a good clean get away and was part of the front 7 car pack that pulled away from the rest of the grid who were all jostling for position. Kept a tight rein on TT and RSM? just in front of me until they both had errors in turn at the chicane and i was able to zoom through. Found myself in 4th place and stayed a second or so behind JonM and Ruskus battle for quite a few laps with a healthy gap over TT & RS behind me, until i slightly over-shot the chicane and lost about 6 seconds crawling across the grass verge, wary of spinning.  Embarrassed
Then kept a watching brief for rest of race about 9-10 secs behind JonM/Ruskus and a 10 second+ gap back to a chasing Leuven.
Had a half spin late on at the downhill hairpin and Leuven closed up to a couple of secs behind but i pulled out a good gap again.

Towards race end, JonM made an error and i was able to close right up on him, his tyres seemed to be giving him trouble and he was un-expectadly shaky through a few corners Huh...i saw a podium place for the taking and began to harry his car for one or two laps but then alas on the penultimate lap, following too close to his rear in turn 1, i late braked myself, sliding sideways off into the gravel and watched with horror as Leuven and ?? steamed past. Sad
I was gutted, as i'd held 4th the entire race and now dropped to 6th  :'(

Luckily for me, i got some consolation on the very last lap when Leuven somehow lost it at the downhill chicane and i re-claimed a place to finish 5th  Cool

Great fun and good clean racing. However despite recent post on driving standards, I still had trouble with two back markers who tried to race me and wouldnt move off line, one cost me 3 seconds on one lap Sad , can only presume they didnt have name/position tags on Huh

Yeah , had a great scrap with Mark J and RS for many laps whilst climbing back up to my original position after making some kind of mistake Roll Eyes

I also had a very hard tine trying to get past some backmarkers, as if they went wide (mistake or to let me past) then took road position and started racing making it very difficult to pass.  Huh

Guys, if you had problems with backmarkers submit incident reports.

Do not discuss it here! 2guns

The gearbox is a sealed item in that Elise and therefore not adustable.

It makes sense not to play the blame game, but its gone from not mentioning the names to not even mentioning any incident, Huh
Surely we can just mention it so people can get info and know that maybe they weren't alone at the same time keeping it clean (no names / slagging off) ?
If we don't mention anything we'll soon be coming on here and only sending PM's and incident reports, rather than posting in a community.

At the end of the day its your forum, so if thats the final word then OK.  Smiley

I'm saying it now before one of the alluded too backmarkers takes offence, posts and the whole thing spirals out of control. I chose not to edit the posts because they didn't name names but it's so very easy for one of those people to get the hump and misinterpret something phrased as a complaint as a personal dig.

To quote from Mark's original post, "However despite recent post on driving standards, I still had trouble with two back markers who tried to race me and wouldnt move off line" is not the most diplomatic of phrasings. Had he merely said "I had trouble getting past two backmarkers" it would've had far less potential for trouble.

Oh dear, sounds like i am in the doghouse again Embarrassed...Sorry, Dave i wasnt digging anyone out hence no names or particular incidents, if you read the sentence again rather than looking for the negative in my statement you will see that i said also 'perhaps they didnt have name tags on? '...easy mistake with all the cars being the same type & colour scheme.

Jeez, this is racing after all, 'passion' goes hand in hand with it..some people are bordering on paranoia lately  Roll Eyes

I'll talk to my PR people and in future they can release bland post race press releases on my behalf Tongue Grin

It's not paranoia if they really are out to get me! Tongue

Please believe me, I'm not just being picky; we've already had cases on these forums of unpleasant heated debates sparked by comments which the original poster thought were innocuous, and before that numerous cases of the same on UKGPL.
