Last race in Monaco I asked for a wild card and they told me I had to vote, so I did and got my wild card and did the race. But now it says that I am not "licensed to enter this series" so I wonder what I have to do to race at Monza? If it is possible that is.

If you voted in the Historic Trophy registration thread, one of the mods will push that magic button and sort you out. Any Honda drivers got a decent setup they don't mind loaning me for this one?

Hi Goran, I have registered you as a reserve driver - you should still get to race - so you should now be able to see the password.

Jethro, please give early warning which championship(s) you're entering next season and I will avoid them like a rabid rottweiler! Having a good battle with Tim for second until mindlessly rear ended by guess who. Anyway, have yet to congratulate Gerard on his well deserved championship and hope the race was better for the rest of you. Although from what I saw happening at Parabolica in the early part of the race I guess I'm not the only disgruntled one today!

What a retarded race. I don't know when are people EVER going to learn you can't win the race (or anything) on lap 1, but you can totally lose it. What was the crap at Parabolica? And then people rejoining without paying attention to who's next to them whatsoever. Was that some people's first race ever? But no, I think some just never learn... or even attempt to.
Then after just trying to come up through the field I get behind Jethro, who's having a proper exit off Para and moves to the right near the pitwall, then just when I'm into his slipstream and right behind, he decides to slow down completely! What do you expect me to do, read the future? Was it so difficult to just keep on the throttle until there is nobody behind you? You gave no signs at all you were about to stop.
So anyway, my car went into the wall and got a puncture or something, it couldn't turn right after so I called it a day.
What a silly way to end an otherwise interested Championship. Grats to Gerard again.

Dave, I braked in my normal place only to find you sliding up 3/4 the road. I couldn't avoid you when I realised. Sorry about that.
As for Hristo rear-ending me, it's true I hit the brakes. Bad no-no, and I shouldn't do it. However I had a broken car and was pulling off the road and intending to retire the car. I had glanced in the mirrors about a second before hand and not seen him, so he must have been in the blind-spot somewhere. I got t-boned by somebody in Lesmo 1 which killed the engine somewhat as it wasn't pulling the revs quick enough (tested a bit on the run down to Parabolica, confirmed on the run out of Parabolica), hence my decision to retire there and then. Had I lifted off in the middle of Para the same accident would have likely happened because H likes to run close.
Apologies to everybody for the lag I had. On my end, most of the cars were jumping about a lot, so it was a lottery where to place the car most times.

Had a rubbish Qualifying session but made up for it with an awesome start! Climbed to about 5th I think while all around me bogged down Found myself battling with Dave for 2nd after the parabolic disaster and hoping we could reel Evil in (I purposely only tryed to pass on the 2 straights to that end) until he was removed from my race. Then had a very lonely 10/12 laps until Fulvio caught me, had a cracking battle with him right up until the penultimate lap where I lost the rear end entering Para and ended up in the sand - having gone wider than usual to ensure I missed him. Came to a stop about 2 meters from the hedge and had to do a 3 point turn to get out this let Phil through to claim a podium with KingHiro steeling 4th from me aswell Ohwell, always next season. Congrats to the finishers and all the championship winning types - you all know who you are

"t-boned"! well yes I guess I ran into you at Lesmo 1 but you didn't mention that at the time your car was stationary, stuck in the barrier AND pointing the wrong way! Couldn't avoid you & although it was a minor hit, it killed my engine too - race over. Your car was warping badly at the start Jethro - couldn't run close to you at all. That connection of yours is... not ideal.

I keep pushing to have my own connection installed, but my folks won't let me dammit!
