For anyone interested, this is what I set out to do as GTR2 chief back in June:
HEREWith an average attendance of just over 14 drivers per race for both championships in this season 13, it's been an... OK season.
We had 16 Championship races, eight were at tracks not previously used in UKGTR2. Some I think were popular choices, others it seems people could have done with out (I remember finishing one race myself thinking, that track didn't work as well as I hoped... lol).
I liked the shorter 60 minute enduro (though Spanner has told me a million times he doesn't
) & it was good to see some of the drivers mixing it up by doing full distance on one set of hards instead of two sets of mediums, added in an extra tactical side to the racing. Though I think that mixing up the endurance race lengths would probably have been even better (anything between 60-90mins
).
Shame the reintroduction of variable weather never really seemed to produce... err rain. Must have been the dryest winter in decades!
I think the new scoring introduced worked well, with a dropped score week, you're more likely to end up with the rightful champion, yet a closer championship to fight for.
Speaking of fighting for things, I was particularly chuffed at how even I managed to get the physics pack, with all races usually finishing with five different cars in the top five!
But I wish I'd used the GT2 cars, I missed them this season (my favourite class) & it's a shame though not a surprise that nobody took on the
task offer of finding us a couple of cars to add in (like for me I guess time was the issue), but I'm pretty sure H@L's going to put that right for us all for next season
.
Anyway, thanks to Dave & Pete for there help & indeed all for attending & a few of you for your encouragement/support along the slightly shorter than expected ride that was 'Legzy, Director of UKGTR'.
I leave you in very good hands, over to you H@L
