Unfortunately Greg's appearance in the Academy (with my blessing - boy do I feel like a chump now) coupled with Picnic's DNF has extinguished the last (admittedly distant) hope of Team Shark getting the team championship. :'(
same with Racin24-7!!! Might have to ask RoGuE to help out more often! And bloody spin first lap! haha |

Dont worry Dave, if all goes according to plan I will off down under in about 5 weeks. It was nice to be able to enjoy my racing and relax for a change  |

So i took the vertislow and decieded to start plum last. Tried not to get in anyones way, dont think i did and finished 9th i think  Wondered who "Grecian Worship" was!  We might have to come up with a better plan for stopping those who are normally Masters from affecting the championships in the Acaedmy; the Vertigo was a good idea and I thank you for it. Unfortunately Greg's appearance in the Academy (with my blessing - boy do I feel like a chump now) coupled with Picnic's DNF has extinguished the last (admittedly distant) hope of Team Shark getting the team championship. :'( Well i was plannig on taking the 350Z lol but common sense prevailed  I was expecting not to score any points (let alone be included in the results) therefore those behind gain a place and some points! init? |

At the moment the software which generates the results has no capacity to avoid giving points to "guest" drivers. Since the divisions are supposed to be ability-based, it's not generally desirable to have Masters in the Academy or vice versa. |

Academy driver who would get a point gets excluded 'cause "Masters wanna race, my boy"! ? TT |

I was looking forward to this race but my connection has decided to crap out on me. It will hopefully be fixed for the enduro. Though I am not hopeful.
Looks like I missed an eventful race!

Hi Dave
Just an explanation of why I baled out last night.
It seems that the frame rate problem I had last week at Laguna came back to haunt me.
After much gnashing of teeth I narrowed the problem down to my having installed the latest video drivers. 93.XX or something so I went back to the old drivers and everything now seems OK.
I must stop faffing about with my computer

Quite an intense race for me last night.... Quallied 6th with my PB and had Paul up behind me,he went up the inside of me and we just clipped each other which sent me into the gravel and down to 12th. Fought my way back up the field and a few good battles on the way,was able to get upto 5th and with 7 minutes left I was 3 seconds behind Giz.started pushing to get up behind Giz and when I got within 1 second of him I spun out.... Got back on track and had 2 extremely intense final laps with Camusito(really sorry for the touch on last lap  :'( )and Rouge,in the end finished where I started 6th... Not a bad final result....Fighting for the team championship  |

I was again having problems coming round the Melbourne loop - the point where the garages and other pit area structures are in view. Nowhere else, just there. |
