Unfortunately i cant make this race  going to Anfield to watch the mighty reds and with a 6 hour drive back wont make it. Less Pseudo backup! Have fun dude  Expecting a good result from teamate H@l in this one! No pressure  Hehe, I need to successfully negotiate the warm up lap first. Unlike at the Spa UE  |

Really sorry if I ruined anyones laps. Everything is going against my GTR2 season at the minute. Poor internet connection and the game running really slowly has ruined another race for me tonight. Sorry.

Didn't even start. I got the same bug that Dave did in the Lower Sprint last week: Interweb demons got me.  Tried to go to the grid but kept being put in one of the chicanes on my roof, so I had to quit. |

And I misread the rules about moving back to your original place.

I saw "wet", so thought Inters would suit. As soon as we left the grid for the warm up lap I saw I was wrong. Tried to keep it on track but couldn't, left the race when I crashed |

Got dumped out during qualifying, started from the back but should have jumped onto the grid to see how bad the weather was as starting on slicks wasnt clever. Ended up binning it on the warmup lap and after pitting for wets and repairs came out a lap down stuck in the middle of GT2's. Sorry about hassling you Prof, thanks for letting me through(?) though i spin out of the 2nd double left at the end of the lap and as i'm waiting for Prof and ross to go by idecide to change view to try and get a better view of oncoming traffic when it locks up on me. Strangest thing it then starts flashing on/ off.
Clearly we were pushing the envelope as the number of people jumping in and out before meant alot of people were suffering with ctd's not to mention the weather, i had 33fps on the grid!

I tried to join in at 20.00 but I couldn't  Server was full (16/16) I thought it was a bit strange to have so few places. But after all the comments now after that the race has started, I think I was lucky not to enter, cause I'm no good at keeping the car on the track in wet conditions  I really do need to practice before I join in on a race with wet track  I went to see a film insteed... and it was a pure joy to watch (Lemans - a Hell of a Weekend)  Hope it went OK for Team-Pseudo  / Jorgen |

Ahhh.. OK Well no harm done... after all I'm useless in the wet SO I'm glad I didn't get in... / Jorgen Lister is a ... in the wet, especially with the Michelins instead of Dunlops. Car has too much torque, too short wheelbase and wheel on the wrong side Make the rear springs very soft and some of the rebounds as well (can't remember) and use the low revs again. Not much more than just practice, or use a different car  . |

Man that took some patience to finish! Lost count of how pits stops I made through lost splitters! Jumped on to the grid, completely missing the fact that it was raining which made the first lap tricky. Reasonably on the pace tonight thankfully (well...on the pace of the GT2 cars in my GT1 I guess , but clearly I've got a lot to learn about making a pass stick rather than spinning off at the next corner (sorry Blunder, you must have wondered if I'd ever get past and stay on the track) All good fun though if a little tiring. Hope my pulling over for leaders was better today than the last Imola race even if I invariably pranged it trying to get out the way! Good race - definitely a baptism of fire for my first endurance. Cheers, Ross. |

I can't complain really....1 lap ahead at one point, but got disconnected with about 16 mins left and leading by 1:20...doh! :'( Oh well. Congrats to Prof on his pole, and gr peeps |
