Very much liked the track, even in these cars, and want to like the series, but getting very tired of all the incidents.
Good qual for race 1, but lasted only until T1 on the first lap. Had nowhere to go when DD started a spin. Couldn't avoid hitting him, which spun me round, facing the oncoming traffic. Became a ping pong ball of the last ones - apologies to Robby; thought all had passed when I started turning. Regained places from Clive & Tony when they had moments, but then lost the rear myself, in a place I didn't otherwise have problems, so maybe the car was damaged. That let Clive & Tony past, only for them to come together in the following corner. Dust & smoke made it difficult to pick a line, and I collided with Tony, going off and rolling the car. Red mist now so thick that I went off over the lap-losing hump and just quit in disgust.
Race two highlight of the evening. Chased Daz as hard as I could, trying to pester him the way he usually does me. Eventually his alien genome took over though and he slipped away. At the same time, I gradually slipped away from Fulvio, who had been chasing me. An original 4th was upgraded to 3rd when DD went for the pits early on.
Race 3 I jumped Clive at the start, which turned out to be a bad call. On L2 he accidently tapped me into a spin, losing 3 places in the process. No worries Clive - have lost FFB myself once and know how difficult it becomes to drive without it. Chased after Matt & Fulvio as hard as I could, and eventually got past both, when they had moments off track. My original 4th was out of reach however, now being in the clutches of Geoffers, Daz and ultimately DD.
Grats to Hristo on the Hattrick - and thanks for providing setups; they were all better than my own concoctions. Grats to remaining podiums and commiserations to the unfortunate ones.
