Was a good race. I didn't think the 906 was going to be that good on a Nascar track against any brute power, but she did well! I was just driving like 30 qualiifying laps in a row to stay ahead Cheesy  For once I had my head in the right frame of mind and I was just relaxed the whole way and didn't make any mistakes.

Really nice track which comes to you if you don't push too hard. In the 906 it was all about getting a nice clean power down on the exits, at the cost of lifting to make sure you catch the apexes.

Good clean driving from what I saw and a great turn out. Hope everyones broadband works OK next week!

Yep, that was a really good race all round, think everyone drove well, just sounds like issues with pitting, maybe the pit lane speed limit is applied outside the white lines, judging by all these stop/gos.

I made a nice start from 6th to 3rd by the first corner, and if it hadn't been for that darn 2nd last turn I'd have been able to stay much closer to the leaders.  I was fast round all the track but just couldn't get that left hander right, I was having to tippy-toe round it slowly every lap, so slow I caught out [Poodle]Andy as he nudged into the back of me (only a tap and no problem)  the first time we were close together - my fault, I was running so far under racing pace through there, losing about 0.5s per lap to all around me, frustrating when the rest of the lap I could match or even make the odd tenth against the other cars.

Lost 3rd to Andy, then started getting annoyed by that corner, tried different lines, braking at different points, never got quicker, and finally spun it, which was scary for me waiting to be hit, but even worse for Jeff (and Shark I think) who had to avoid me.

Had a bad middle part of the race where I had no rhythm or speed, and then bam, I got that 2nd last corner right, finally figured how to balance the car on entry and was able to get on the gas so much earlier and apex much quicker.   Smiley

Then I regained my enthusisam, caught up to Jeff and Mark who were having a real battle, and because Mark's 911 was held up by Jeff's struggling Vette in the slow parts I was able to just breeze by him on the main straight, which seemed a little unfair after all his attempts to pass the Vette.  Of course I then found myself in the same situation behind Jeff.  My tyres were still quite fresh (after my disinterested middle section  Tongue) so I had loads of speed round the bends but every time I got a run, I'd pull out, get alongside, then the huge power of the Vette would nudge it ahead a few feet.  Maybe 5 or 6 times we were side by side, but even being on the inside I didn't feel I was quite level enough, and Jeff wouldn't know quite where I was so I backed out each time to avoid a coming together.  Massive fun, I have to say.  That's what GTL is all about.    Grin

Thanks, hope so too. yes Annoying thing was I raced on Wednesday and had no lag problems whatsoever, not even a resynchronisation in more than 2.5 hrs of practice/qual/short pre-event races and the whole formal qualification and race.  Grin

Last night after I quit PingPlotter gave 5 errors in 10 samples - such is life.   Roll Eyes

JR

Meant to say thanks for the vette set up!
I did alter it slightly to make it driveable!  Cheesy
but still could only manage 1.23's!
I can see that it will be quick but it just moves around more than I'm used to!?
I will keep trying if races allow the vette to enter!
Had to stick to the boring 911 option last night for some consistency!

Just noticed that results show JRs tank was shod with Dunlops and mine was Avon. Is this right?  That would explain how he managed to beat me Wink

 Wink It was a full chat crash Jeff, was fighting my stomach as well as the car and just lost concentration whilst trying to keep my dinner down  laugh so threw it off track rather than hitting you, an absent front spoiler and a car that turned right on its own was the result but I managed to keep it going for some points at least.

A good race up until that point and was hoping to maybe get past you at some point (I could see the front wheels moving left to right a lot) as your corner speeds were dropping slightly, but it was not to be.

Congrats to the podium btw.
