Just wanted to say that was great fun last night but bloody knackering! I thought this track wouldnt be any good but it surprised me. I thought the little alpine would be at a bit of a disadvantage and watching the gaggle of elans come straight past on the straight wasnt fun in the first few laps. Managed to be the second alpine, 0.7s behind psuedo which was good and that laps wasnt a brilliant one so knew I could run reasonably well. My start wasn't good, too much wheelspin then changed into second too early but managed to run with psuedo early on. Looking at the lapcharts i was running closly with someone for most of the first stint but the track is just a bit too tight at times which made it too risky at times especially as i didnt really have an advantage over the whole lap.
I managed to monitor the fuel so that when i stoped there was only 13 laps left, but was thrown a bit when i pitted as to what the fuel setting was, either fuel added to current level which was only a few litres only or whether it was what you wanted to leave the pits with including what you stopped with. With fuel and tyres changed it ended up being a long stop especially as it didnt seem to fire back up for a long time. Finally mananged to come out in front of Dave (Blimey, did you actually pit?) which turned into quite a battle with Dave pretending he was in a drifting comp. round most corners swinging that big'ol ass around
where i could kinda get my nose down the inside on some corners but had
to get out of it carrying more corner speed and with the lack of rear-corner vision didnt want to get too agressive only to get swiped.
With my lap counter saying another lap to go and trying to get a bit of drafting off Dave down the straight i suddenly find cars littered down the main straight then find out the race is over. Bit of a shock, had people stopped after the line?
Just a shame the next enduro is so long away, seemed to just click with GTL.
