Another disco for me; saw the times going wierd up the pit straight so pressed esc. Just about beat the GT3 guys in quali, which was the highlight of my night. Brimmed the tank and reckoned I'd sneak some back at the pitstop. It wasn't enough to keep me ahead of Gazza though and soon I was having to overdrive, resulting in the inevitable spins that followed. Still, more enjoyable than my drive down the M42 after a great day at Doni. Hope you all had a great race Edit: Oh, and welcome Cristi. I hope you have a great time here.

Lost connection with 20 mins left. :'( Totally gutted. I think my modem (or ISP, however it works) reset the ip, got lazy with restarting it before a race. Had a nice chase with TT and Cristi. Welcome Cristi . Sorry if my car was in the way of anyone when I lost connection. Cristi was close behind, sorry if you hit it. Have fun all.

Tough break Tudor, has someone cursed Team KC this year? Time to get out the Shark dolls Brilliant first half of race after a terrible quali effort. Nice battles with Gazza and Cristi outta the way I caught JR and Jose battle quite nicely as they held each other up. Then my pitsop was a disaster. How on earth I lost so much time and so many places I have no idea :'( Maybe the pit crew wasn't expecting me to reach half way as I haven't been there in 10 races . Seriously, it sucks. Congrats to all and hope you had fun Cristi (the bimmer looked horrible on that track).

Was very happy with my qually lap, a PB for me. During the first lap I hit a curb halfway and slided a bit, but enough for Jose to get by. I was then stuck behind him for 35 minutes . I was a bit quicker but he was fast enough at the important places. I then decided to pit earlier than planned as I saw SBG come closer and I just couldn't get past. Did a nice quick stop and had a nice empty space when I came out. Weirdly people fighting for position let me by at that stage, very kind, but not necessaary . When Jose did his stop I had a 5 second lead. He came a bit closer sometimes so I had to put myself to it to push a bit harder by doing some hotlapping. All of a sudden the gap was 12 seconds and increasing quite rapidly near the end, what happened Jose? Good to see you here Cris, hope you enjoyed it .

DC'd with 3 mins of quali left, no time to get a lap in, so was at back. Filled tank, went for it. Sorry for confusion on parade lap Dave, I accidently flashed you trying to find limiter (I've had to reintall program, and re-assigned buttons). I did not pass you as I was supposed to be at back. Really big sorry to Peter Allnutt for slamming your rear end at end of second lap. Just came over crest into last turn, was up inside Dave, and got a little airbourne with brakes on, I fully understand if a report goes in, totally my fault. Any way, a few offs later, and pit went ok, gained about 25 secs on guys in front by not needing fuel, only to run off the track, hit the wall at turn 1, and break the car, race over. Gratz to podiums, away next week, so see you all week after.
