Moderator's Report

The warp contact between Ken Murray and Clive Gardner on lap 1 was a result of the latter just being too close. As a guide I should always be able to see tarmac between the nose of my car and the tail of the car one is following.
In this instance the warp contact had a knock on effect to those cars following and was unnecessary, as there was no passing opportunity to be had and leaving a slightly larger gap would not have been a handicap.
I consider myself told off!!


Server replay time: 0h01m07s

Phil is witness to the two Ferraris tangling ahead and is ultra cautious to avoid being involved. Burt is powering his BRM off the grid in his usual formidable way, but cannot see what Phil has seen. Burt is caught unawares by the Phil's suddenly slower car and runs into Phil.
Neither Burt nor Phil are at fault.

I think I need to apologise to you guys.
I crashed home from a weeks work in hell running on adrenilin and Red Bull and maybe I should not have contemplated starting this race but I needed something to distract my mind from work.

Thanks to Phil for posting this race and starting the server in my absence.

Joined the server with about 15 mins left in qually and chose a setup from somewhere and lengthened the gears a couple of times until 5th was working down the Mulsanne and left it at that.
The T1 lap 1 incident was probably down to me tagging the rear of Ken's Ferrari, when he got a bit out of shape, and taking a trip across the track just when everyone was coming under the Dunlop Bridge. Undecided...sorry guys Angry
Got going again without apparent damage and was so mesmerised by Lorenzo's nitro powered Cooper that I forgot to brake at Mulsanne Corner and sailed straight on ( either that or it was a dream and I actually fell asleep!!).

Rejoined last behind Burts "extra wide" BRM Roll Eyes which I just managed to squeeze past, expecting to be in the scenery myself within the next lap and race over. But despite a couple of spins which somehow resulted in a 360's entirely on the tarmac I actually managed to complete the race. OK, so I was about 6 miles behind everyone else but I did finish...just.
Then, I slept.................................................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

It was good to see more people joining the race as initially we were just 4. Shame for Iestyn on the start, I was looking forward to a great battle, though eventually I had a brief one with Lorenzo. It was near guilt that I felt when passing his weak Cooper on the straights but he still managed to hold on for a bit and even repass when I had a half spin at the 2nd hairpin. Otherwise it was a quiet run but I enjoyed it anyway as the car felt wonderful to drive and in the end I pushed for my regular fast last lap which worked as well.  Tongue

Looks like I'm gonna have to up the ante if I want to claim some SRou lap records eh Hristo?  laugh

I think the BRM did have a poor engine reliability in '67 - But surely the Weslake was the worst... only 2 finishes for Dan, and none for Bruce. Also, what about Repco in '68... Pushing the engine to keep up with the DFV, only 2 finishes all season despite some poles!  Roll Eyes
