A*** F*** W*** T*** Sorry chaps, had the server all setup and ready to go, only needed to press the start button. Was flying online with the games computer and everything was going wrong and simply forgot. Couldn't hear the MSN beeps over the other sound. Major slap on the wrists.  |

We had a nice little race with 6 of us on Smoothy's server.
I was slow(er) as usual. averaging 1:32-1:33 although i was probably slower than that with lots of ppl behind me.
I got into the lead, coz everyone else fell off. then I just tried to drive my own race. It's hard with people who are about 2 seconds quicker than you behind you :-) Anyway anybody who's ever raced behind me knows I'm hard to overtake, and thats what I was for about 12 minutes. Even got overtook once and held my line and raced through both hairpins side by side... and took the place back... with no contact (I think).
Thanks to Smoothy for putting his server on, shame you never got into the race :-(
A bigger thanks to Bernie Ecclestone for sticking around even though he was off the pace, I know its not always easy, I've been there before, and surely will be again.

That was excellent  I'd posted some good times with the Roos Viper offline, a 1:28.9 in qually and 1:29.2 in race trim, but online I couldn't match them as it felt like there wasn't the same grip. Led the pace lap properly this time, and then promptly buggered up the first corner at the start LOL, let the 3 Ferraris through DOH! Simon fell into the gravel on lap 1 then Fozz ran wide and let Colin through to lead and I got a run at him out of the chicane, we were side by side round Melbourne and Fozz held onto 2nd out of the last turn, great stuff and we never touched once Then Colin dropped the ball and it was Fozz then me then Simon who had caught up again and I was trying everthing to get past Fozz and he finally cracked when he locked a wheel going into Melbourne and I was through! He tried to sneak back inside at the last turn but I wasn't gonna let him get away with that one Great fun guys, thanks!!! |

Gave me a chance to catch up on some sleep by going to bed early so you did me a favour. |
