Like Simon, no way did I deserve 6th. Another pretty poor race for me, despite TT saying the Lister suits me better
I'm all over the place on braking, can't get these GTR2 cars slowed down consistently. As anyone who's had the misfortune to be behind me at the start of a race knows I'm madly inconsistent with the brakes, usually have to brake really early to avoid overshooting corners which can cause problems for cars behind, eh Dave and MJ?
Last night the usual story, same braking point for a corner and some laps I'm wrestling the car to keep from running off wide and other laps suddenly the braking is way better and I have to coast or reaccelerate up to the apex. I could go way faster if I actually knew what speed the car would have at turn in rather than having to react every time.
Have to concentrate so hard that after 20 minutes I'm shot and start to spin out. Seems like a massively peaked function of retardation vs pedal pressure, and I'm usually missing the peak! Have no such problem in GTL, just GTR2. Very frustrating.
That's what happened to you Brian, that lap I happened to get more braking than I expected, was intending to leave a nice car width for you to go up but I was less deep into the corner than I expected, had the A-pillar obscuring my view of the apex, and turned in too soon, squeezing you. Didn't mean to, I wasn't trying to fight that one, I was just trying to stay on track by that stage of the race. Did manage intense concentration for the last few laps to close back up to Simon after spinning the place away, almost fell off the chair by the end with the effort.
Congrats to the podium and all the top guys in the championship.
Back to practicing for me.
