Really sorry for the first contact Paul...  Coming out of druids I was waiting and waiting for you to get on the power, but it never happened.  The gap between us closed slowly, and then you seemed to slow down further.  No excuse though, I should have avoided you...  Embarrassed  I waited for you to rejoin but unfortunately 2 cars had sneaked through. Sad

The 2nd contact was when you came out of the pits and slid across the front of my car in the attempt to defend your position.  My replay clearly shows a 2 foot gap between our cars and no contact, yet you back end kicked out. Sad   Sorry, but other than throwing my car off the track I'm not sure what I could have done differently....  Also sorry for the guys behind that got caught up in the incident. Sad
No problem for the first one Darren, stuff happens.  The Rad needs a bit of a lull before you can get the power in at Druids or it understeers off on the exit.  I was doing the same on the other laps but I think you were closer that lap as I'd avoided a spinner.

Coming out of the pits though was my fault entirely.  I had Oily on my tail in the pitlane, looked at my F3 screen and it was on F1 so I had no idea who was where.  It was too late to do anything about it as I came out and saw you bearing down.  I was actually trying to stay to the right round Paddock but that's not easy and I slid to the middle down the slope.  You never stood a chance.

Even on my replay there was about a foot between us on "contact" but that's online racing.  With that sort of changing speed differential the prediction's near impossible.

I should have been far more careful coming out of the pits.  I'm really sorry, not only to you but to Oily and Simon who were caught up in it.

*** Edit - after reading the reports it was Dave not Simon, sorry mate ***

Another curate's egg of a race.

I couldn't really get as quick as I should have in qually but got a 1:20.9 in on the last lap with fuel.  The chequered flag lap would have been quicker had I not run out of fuel coming out of Surtees.

At the start I got the drop on Samu and used him as a shield for the first couple of laps before he got by at Graham Hill.  I'm focussing on the Radical title this season so wasn't too concerned about the DPs.

That put Darren behind me.  I found that if I got a decent run out of Surtees I could pull out a gap all the way round Hawthorn and up the hill.  Darren would catch me roound Westfield and Sheene but I'd have the gap to really pull away out of Stirlings and I was starting to pull out a little gap.  A couple of DPs spinning up ahead and small mistakes lost me time though so Darren would get tight back on my tail.

On lap 12 Darren just nudged me out of Druids.  I span half round so got away again quickly but had lost two places by then.  It quickly became clear than the car was damaged.  It was straight but the rear end was all over the place in the quick corners and I was nearly a second down on the pace I'd been routinely doing in practice.

Coning up to the stops Oily was all over me but I was just about keeping him behind.  Then Brendan came out in front of me.  Full of fuel I was right on his tail and figured he was holding me up slightly so decided to come in a few laps early.  To my surprise Oily followed me but I hit my marks and stayed in front.

Then I made the pit exit mistake for which I am truly sorry.  That left me behind Oily but he quickly pulled off with obvious damage.

I knew Ken was up ahead but couldn't see how far.  I figured the delay from the accident would give him the edge after his stop but I pushed as hard as I could anyway.  To my surprise I came round ontot he pit straight to see him in the pits and got past.

After that he was about 5-6 seconds behind me.  I found that if I really concentrated hard I could edge out a little extra but the car was difficult with the fuel back on and I was tiring so I'd make mistakes that dropped me back again.  With a few to go I made a mistake and went wide at Sheene.  I held it together but it brought Ken to within a few seconds.

Then I spotted Simon getting closer up ahead.  I was pulling over a second a lap on him so he was obviously struggling with a problem.  That gave me something positive to focus on and I started catching him more quickly.  At the line I was right up behind him but he held it together.  Another lap and it would have been interesting.

Overall that was a great race.  Very intense, very hard work.

Congratulations to Gary on a superb win.  I knew he was quick but didn't think he'd beat the DPs who were quicker than they were on paper.

I am trying to pick tracks that even out the cars a bit where possible but it's not easy.  This one worked well though I think.

I'll be posting the remainder of the tracks in the next couple of days now the official schedule's out.  The only real decision to make is whether to run Road America in the last race or do Spa again.  Anyone got any preference?

Spa please. Done Road America a lot and only just bought Spa with one race under my belt. Although obviously I've raced there a lot in other games, but it's the new layout with that stupid chicane just before the start/finish line. Smiley

We ran the Classic pits last time so the S/F line was after La Source.  The new build is bringing in the full Sports Cars pits I believe, we could run that in preference.

Why do that, I'd prefer more time racing at speed than the trundle down the pit lane that layout gives us.

Forcing you to use the pit limiter is the only way the rest of us can keep up!

Sorry to Ken for the little tap in qually mate, really didn't want that to happen.

Regards
Gary

No probs Gazza. You were obviously were running much quicker than me and ideally I would have liked to have been able to pull over and let you past and maybe tried to tag on. However the clock was ticking and I'd only been able to join qually very late so I had no option but to attempt to complete the lap as fast as possible.

For anyone not checking the announcements forum the rest of the schedule is up.  I've updated the series details too so you can see where we're racing on the standings pages too.

Please direct complaints at National Rail who were incapable of keeping their signalling systems working North of Bishops Stortford last night, thus giving me lots of time to apply my warped logic to the selections.

Maybe because you were 3rd Ken, in the Radicals.
