UKGTL Season 7 - Loch Rannoch (Short) - May 14 FUN RACE

[Mike Cook]

Oh bugger...

Seems I was getting mixed up with the PnG race with the pit stops...so now I just feel like a prat!

[phspok]

You had me going there for a while Mike, and in the replay Mr Ruskus takes a pit stop, so then I was REALLY worried

[Mike Cook]

Today I was checking out the PnG post and getting excited about the Season, but mid-race is certainly not the best time to have thoughts about pit stops popping back into your mind...ruinded my whole bloody race!

Decided to start from the back as that normally gives good racing, and this was no exception .

Was great fun trying to get to the front and rally my way through the track

Halfway I was in the lead but got a immediat s/g for hitting some gravel under the overhead thingy 
Dropped back to 7th or so and could start over again .
Ade was too far and quick to catch again, but enjoyed every lap of this race.

Same as last time, if you enjoyed this race so much I can make a video, but it would help me if you checked the replay for good moments

[Wiltshire Tony]

Replay and Results now up.

With thanks for a major effort from Legzy and Picnic.

[Jeffrey]

Can't wait for the replay!!....hint hint Ruskus 

Here ya go Lazlow

Must say, excellent car choice. So many yet with a close pace for this kind of track.
Well done Mr. Tony and Mr. Legzy.
When i was in 2nd trying to keep Steve behind me, spun after the S/F line and ruinned
my race aswell Steve's race. I'm really sorry about that, but just couldn't get out of the way,
that's why i rather like race circuits, we spun and have plenty of space to escape. 

Although been a fun race, everybody drove really well and clean.

Congrats to Mr. ADE and to podium. And to Jeff's twice-recovering.

Cheers.

P.S. Where are you Mr. SBG?

Loved the race, loved the track, loved the cars. Somebody must have done a good job 
Nah, I did have a couple of concerns what with it being the first race Tony & me have put on, but as Mr Formby often said... Turned out nice again. 

Took the DB4 so all six cars would be represented on the grid & very happy that I did. It was a bit tricky landing the jump, but which car wasn't  . Good racing with numerous people, even Oily 

Happy to see you guys have enjoyed it too & thanks for the well wishes going forward.
See you all at Snetterton hopefully (which is another real treat IMO  )

Same as last time, if you enjoyed this race so much I can make a video, but it would help me if you checked the replay for good moments

Jeff, I'll add a couple of timestamps here for the replay video tonight if you can hold off till then hoopefully?

Don't worry PR, with the amount of testing I did of addon cars a while back... it's being looked at.

That's allright, I've got the footage for the video . I want to release it while the iron is still hot

Excellent news Legzy.

Well done Legzy & Tony on a great first event (although we did run out of voulavants in the hospitality tent)
Didn't expect a win on this one thanks to Mike for doing a pit stop and Jeff for showing how slow i really go started getting worried when i saw you in my mirror for the second time near the end.
A big sorry to Steve Holmes for the contact side by side over the jump (haven't looked at the replay yet) hope it didn't slow you down too much.



                                         Thanks for the great racing 
                                                        Ade

I uploaded the video at Youtube and 5 minutes later they removed the soundtrack .

So I'm trying to get in on Veoh at the moment

I do wonder about your music taste sometimes, but was it really that bad?

[Steve Holmes]

Sorry to Mike for being in your way there and trashing your race, after PR lost it and I ran into him (no problem mate  )  I found myself pointing diagonally across the track and with no such thing as trackIR my look right didn't show me the track so I had to get moving at some point and ended up right in your path. 

Bitterly disappointed at my race, managed to keep up the concentration for most of the race and sat comfortably in 2nd just behind Ade from mid distance and then just started losing concentration and making small mistakes which dropped me back and let PR by.  Then it all went horribly wrong and in the last few laps lost over 30s to Ade with a series of crashes. Pretty annoyed by my driving there, probably shouldn't have raced that tired.  Seems like the curse of the Merc struck PR too though. 

Good win though Ade, and I loved our side by side over the jump, that was what its all about, close fair racing with a hint of door rubbing. 

[Minton]

Grats Ade.
