Am I the only one that can't see the server? Apologies for the delay with re-starting the server tonight guys. It was me having my first server driving lesson from Legzy. Hope all is ok now.

PnG doesn't like me anymore Joined very late as the server looked full very early so stayed away. Then saw there was space late on so got 1 lap of qual and lined up on the grid. The lights went green, I hit the gas and nothing happened Hey ho, hope you all had a good one. Best I managed on race fuel in the 911 was a 12.3 this afternoon - great slidey fun although the tyres wore much more at the back, so the 2nd half would have been interesting!

It's been awhile but this was a classic starting line pileup Was hit numerous times and when the dust rose the mighty V8 was not alive anymore. Too bad because I was doing decent times (unlike pracci this week). Congratulazioni to the (Italian?) winner.

One of those days to forget, and I mean day. All damn day went wrong and full of issues. I will make a report for the race incident API. Many apologies. Btw, where I can make the race report? After the results?

PnG hung again in quali , twice , picked a Cobra, virtually no praccy in it (should have stayed in the GT-40), but had a good race with Legzy, API and Clive. But eventually ran out of talent ( a recurring theme nowadays) and just lost it almost everywhere. Very dissappointed with my performance of late and am starting to wonder what's going wrong , I forsee a break from racing coming up as I just don't enjoy it lately, not sure why but there you go.

I want to apologize with Clive for the tap at first lap, but I totally missed my braking point... Luckily you reached to keep your car on the road, and the only thing I could do was letting you pass me, and re-gain your position. About my race, it was really fun... After the first damned lap, I re-ordered my ideas, and I started to have a good pace for the first 11 laps. Then, when my come back was complete, I overtook Ian at the last corner, and at the same corner in acceleration my car spun into the guard rail... real newbie move! With broken suspention and with my steering wheel crooked, I had to give up and bring my car to the 5th position till the end... but it was funny! My friend Bonni, thanks Mr. Curnow for the awesome duel for the 2nd time in 2 races!!! It will be an intersting face to face in every race! Grats to all my teammates, that made a great work till the end! Unfortunately for the next week we will not be able to join the race, but from April 29 we'll be free by other champs, and we'll have fun with you as ever Cu at the next and grats to Mike Miller for the deserved victory! P.S. [VDA] Isacchini => Lalethor [VDA] Bonni => bimbonos

Good race. Got mugged at the start as usual when on auto clutch, should have tried manual, but forgot passed a couple of fallers off, then got stuck behind CLive who seemed to be slower than normal at first got passed by the ones who fell off, then had some good tussles with FMG CLive and Legzy, Lalethor went off somewhere ( I think maybe a coming together with someone) so passed him, he caught up of course as he was a lot faster on a lap, but he lost it at least once trying not to ram me into the final chicane ( the MK2 just doesn't stop well, for me) and then seemed to be having trouble with others holding up his advance through the field.# Was almost catching the injured Manteos near the end, and had passed FMG after he spun it under power or got a wheel up the inside kerb in final turn. 6th was better than expected, so I am a happy racer. Good track car combo, except perhaps 911, a few brave souls took it, but it wasn't really in the same league IMHO

I want to apologize with Clive for the tap at first lap, but I totally missed my braking point... Luckily you reached to keep your car on the road, and the only thing I could do was letting you pass me, and re-gain your position. No problem Manteos, were you the blue GT40 who appeared suddenly in my left ear? Thanks for letting me back past you. I think it may had cost you a few more places as well. I got well roughed up on the first lap by just about everybody except the guy in the pit car so don't worry. It was a good race with lots going on all the way through. Saw a lot of Legzy, Tim, Geoffers and Matt in just about any order you wish to nominate. I just feel annoyed because I messed things up all on my own at about 1/3 distance. I got a bit carried away trying to get past Tim (FMG) at T1 and ended up spinning nose first into the barrier. It was following Tim that I found difficult as when he started doing massive slides, I started to copy him and my setup just wouldn't have it. In the closing laps I was trying to fend off another #88 Cobra but failed. When I looked at the results I didn't feel so bad as it was your mate who was on pole. Lalethor was it? Good fun though. Thanks all and grats to the podium.

Despite all his ruddy pc woes, just got a pm from Madd congratulating me on the champ win. That really says a lot about the community here, top drawer (I'm doing a Legzy ). It also says a lot about his maths as I'm not quite there yet with one dropped score Congrats Mike/all. I kiss you all on both cheeks. Edit-I think it says more about my maths
