Good stuff MJ - it was good to see you on track again.
I was VERY lucky in that race I think. After a great start (well done all - it looked clean as a whistle from back where I was) and sensible first lap by everyone, I was settling in to "race mode" behind TT and Shark. TT made a slight error which let me get alongside, and being the gent he is TT let me by.
Then again ... maybe his spider-senses were tingling, as I somehow managed to lose the back end going into Stirlings Bend .... I'm guessing I touched some grass, but in any case, I span and was heading towards the wall in a cloud of profanity. I nudged the wall, and fearing the worse I rejoined the race. Thankfully the car was fine ... phew.
The next few laps were spent catching up to folk, and keeping it clean.
I had a good view of MJ/Picnic going at it, even with Ross distracting me
I had a second bout of good fortune when someone span infront of me, and although I nudged them after some evasive action, the car still felt fine ..... PHEW!!
After MJ span I got to within a second of Picnic, but lost concentration - and it was just as well. Coming out of Dingle Dell I saw a flying team Shark car - there'd obviously been a "bit" of an incident with Chris. That got me another couple of places, and with a big gap to the next guys front and back, I eased off and made sure I made no mistakes.
.... well, until the leaders finished and I was the last car on track and promptly ran WIDE at Graham Hill bend
Great fun again, and well done all for a very clean getaway at the beginning.
