I've applied for a rearward grid spot, if a spot can be found.

Thanks for spotting and slotting.

does anyone have a link to the track download?

Thanks Doni

A hard won grid spot, suggested my race would be rearward.  And so it was.

When Francesco battled past, I battled back and had almost re-passed, when someone threw a tree at me!  It was on the long back straight, and the resultant impact and spin, cost me 5 seconds, but I can see nothing in the rulebook about such behaviour.

Eventually cooked the brakes, while trying to reclose the gap.  None-the-less, it was good to be back in a '55.

I just like the flow of Zolder corners, how you have to settle the car in one corner thinking about the next. You don't need to push or brake hard, just drift in and out.

yep!, quite right Phil T1 lap 2 and got myself caught in the catch fencing. Tried forward and reverse to extricate myself and succeeded only in blowing the engine  .

I would like to blame Arnold or Mabel for the error, but I am finding it difficult to actually pin the blame on them.  I cannot explain why I did not have a copy of Zolder in my system??? TBH I rocked up to the server at 8:45 and expected to jump straight in a sort a setup. But of course without a Zolder track folder I was refused entry......SRMZ was down and so is the Track Database.....
I posted a "help" message on the forum and my good buddy Doni provided a link. That was all good except that I then had to Sign Up for that resource, and await a confirmation email, before I could get a download. Then install and reboot GEM, transfer the track into the 55 Season, then fire up IGOR and try again. Just to further screw things I joined in what I thought was the Connaught ( I wanted the Vanwall ), quit and reloaded only to discover that I had had the Vanwall and now had the Connaught  .
Anyhoo, finally I was in the pits with a Vanwall.......but no setup and only 14 mins of quali left 

Cobbled together a setup that generated 4th/5th on grid, but it was far from ideal for me. Not enough time/laps to get the gears into the right ratios or to nail the optimum braking points. The lack of practice laps bit me hard on Lap 2 when I was 5mtrs too late at T1 and gently ran off into the fencing 
Grats  to Leo on a commanding performance and to Phil and Bob. It might have been a bit more interesting if I could have held things together.
