Was a disaster for me, partly my fault. partly bad luck. I was a victim of Matteo's hard chasing, not intentional
of course, and it's very tempting to get as close to someone as possible in the last corner, but I was tapped
into a half spin as I lifted slightly (and I mean "slightly" ) earlier than the aliens, and ended up going off into
the barrier, and spinning across the track in several people's way. No biggie, it happens, just lost me some places
Then I was surprised by MIke coming up the inside on the run up to the last bend, when I was concentrating
on not hitting Alex, put a wheel on the grass giving him room, and went into the evil tyres, engine dead, game over
A narrow track for close racing, and everyone seemed to have very different lines/braking points for various corners
I was following PR into T1, I assumed no one every lifted, but he did
nearly had me over the fence trying to
emergency stop. next lap I am expecting it, so go real low, and he comes down and we touch... ok I give in
Interesting and challenging track, but was not good for racing last time we used a variant of it for me.
Oh, and the double file rolling start doesn't work with Europeans. people seemed unsure of who they should be
alongside. I tried but kept getting my nose chopped off by the person I "thought" I was supposed to be next to...
so just went single file like most people seemed to be doing.
I like the reverse grid idea,but it needs patience from the back of the grid, and it needs a wide track with safe passing places, which this was not.
TI Aida )Okayama the other side of the hill would be a good place for this sort of thing IMHO
