Glad you were experiencing Paul's warp as well Hristo, I thought it might just have been me.
In the early laps I was reluctant to attempt a pass on Paul, although i felt quicker in some places. His "tail out" style and the warp combined to make any gap immediately disappear then reappear lol. A very effective deterrent!
A small mistake allowed Hristo through and I planned to just tuck in and follow for a few laps, as I was happier to have Hristo where I could see him and not looming in my mirrors.
The plan worked well until I put a rear wheel on the grass coming on to the straight and completed a graceful 360 degree spin.
It took me a couple of laps to regain my pace and although I was closing ( slowly) on the two in front it was not enough, until I presume they had an incident and suddenly they were both in my sights!!
I slipped past both ..and for a few glorious seconds I was leading with the prospect of some hectic laps to the finish.
I'm not sure if it was warp contact, as I forgot to save a replay, but the last thing I saw was Paul's green monster dancng about in my mirrors and lunging up the inside.......then it all went black!!
I regained conciousness upside down on the fence, race over.
Disappointed that we had such a small grid for this one, I hope it was just pre-Christmas pressure on time etc and not a general lack of enthusiasm.
