Excellent fun racing once again. Nice turn out too with a great spread of cars
Had a bloody phone call right as qually was starting and had to take it. Sat there nervously watching the clock tick down until about 4 mins left and decided to try and put a lap in whilst still holding the phone to my ear !
as was worried i would get a DQ for not setting a time. Actually managed to get a 1:41 and 12th despite being one handed or crook necked for most of the lap
Virtually put the phone down on them as the race timer got down to 8 seconds or so
Had great early battles from the start, especially an excellent close duel with Ossie in another 911 and one or two others in the mix.
Car felt great and i was looking for a top 5 finish. Then disaster struck, got very tight on Oss into the final corner, stabbed the brake a tad to avoid hitting his rear end and the nose turned in too tight and struck that b*stard bollard on the apex
Car span and i got front right suspension damage which meant the car pulled to the left and seriously crabbed under heavy braking. :'(
Thought that was pretty much race over but decided to soldier on and see how driveable it was. It was a pig under brakes but i could still manage reasonable 1:41 or 1:42 times so plugged away and even took a couple of places back, including another good little duel with Mag07 (again!) to eventually finish 9th.
Could have finished higher without the damage but great fun all the same !! The driving standard has got even better and there was plenty of good clean fun racing
