The TVR was a tricky thing to tame - it wants to slide into the corner, scrubbing speed off. In quali, I tried a few setup tweaks that helped the car run more consistently but this stopped outright speed, and quali was a few tenths of practice PB, for third on the grid.

THe first few laps were great fun. Assassani and Ruskus were dicing for the lead, I was right behind Assa, and Baracus was right behind us all (in the corners, at least!). Assa took the lead for a bit, then Ruskus got it back. For several laps I had some excellent battles with Assa; this allowed Ruskus to get away. Several times I was beside Assa around T1, but couldn't hold position as the road swept left to T2. Eventually, though, I had a good run out of the chicane and held position down the main straight to get second place.

Ruskus was 9.5 secs ahead. Wasn't sure if I would catch him, but on the next lap the gap was down by almost a second to 8.6. On the next lap, though, we only just missed the parked Ruskus in the chicane, nipping between his bonnet and the wall. Wahoo - the lead!

From then on, it was a case of trying to make no mistakes. I gradually pulled away from Assa, as he had a few slidy exits from the tight bends. When the gap was about 5 seconds I relaxed, braked earlier, accelerated more gently - the result was the lap times stayed the same, going to show these cars need a bit of caressing in a race.

Well done Assa for some great fighting. Shame Ruskus got stuck on the wall, would have been interesting if we could catch ya!

Actually despite my earlier comment of not really enjoying 'most' of the GTC's, i quite enjoyed throwing the Elan about last night. Its the first time i've used it and was thoroughly enjoying dicing it up with the bigger cars, me and Rad trailbraking into parabolica together was great fun  Cool

Just for some reason the elan decided it didnt want to get through T1 anymore unless i brought it to a virtual standstill, no idea why as the tyres were not worn according to my GTLPD  Huh, the back end just broke away, several times.
I like driving the TVR, but it can be really frustrating unless you spend an age getting re-familiarised with it.

He'h DG, its my right side of neck thats gone too...does it class as a sporting injury ? whistling Seems to be sim-racing thats causing it. Undecided

I think so - perhaps we can sue SimBin or Logitech? angel

Assuming we're both right handers I wonder if lefties crick the left side of their necks? Enquiring minds want to know...

I was warped out last night, about 3 frames between the start/finish line and the concrete wall, apologies if anyone was involved.  Apologies to Ruskus I didn't realise I was faster though those first series of corners than you and just nudged you on the exit to the back straight.  I finished up in the wall but you appear OK in your Yank Tank.

Np Bill. I didn't expect your nose there, and I was already steering for half an hour in that tank  Grin. It was a small nudge, and the Vette didn't move a muscle because of that little Elan  Smiley

Yes, BUT, it was also then a might embarrassing when they drove past in a carefree and easy way around any line of the corner whilst I hung on for dear life in my Cobra under round the outside of parabolica.
