You all are right that my pace is better suited to the Long GP Series. I think it is the same for Baab/Bob Whitwell.
Yeah I understand that this was the expectation, I didn't opt for that series because the Sprint races are already on the long side for me, don't want to stress my eyes more than necessary and living in Germany the races finish around 11:15pm...which is late enough for a school night! Doni seems to be doing a full season in the BRM...unless he's harvesting tokens! I am also happy to drive the tank to make the racing a bit closer.
Regarding the race, I haven't seen a replay yet but Arf mentioned he came together with Markus into the first corner as Markus avoided me, I wasn't aware that I'd caused anything but assumed there must have been an incident as I immediately had a small lead. After a few laps I stretched my lead to 12 secs, but then Markus passed Doni and hunted my down in no time! I thought I was going pretty well lapping in 25/6s but Markus seemed to be down in the 23/4s. Markus halved my lead then I spun and handed him the lead. After that he drove away, nothing I could do, then for good measure I had another spin or two!! One of those spins was when I hit someone who had crashed and was at the side of the track on the exit of the last turn. Apologies to whoever that was, couldn't avoid you on the line I took.
Thanks for the racing/hosting/modding,
Bob.
