    Yeah, I felt a sense of Deja Vu during that second stint, working hard to get you out of my draft :D

    Great turnout, a 14 car grid looks really cool.
    My race was pretty much trouble free, I got off to a decent start and early on was I was concentrating on my lines and not to make a mistake to try a build up a gap before the first pit stop. I did try a make it a 1 stopper but though it was only 50/50 at best so I stayed on the safer strategy.

    unfortunately mustafur and rotor made a couple of mistakes as it definitely would have been a tight battle for the win.

    Wow that Grid looks awesome!! Hopefully Div 2 can get those numbers after a smallish turnout for round 1.

    Musta did a 1.01 dead in a room with me yesterday. So come today, I would estimate that would be mid 1.00's. Hard to drive quick lap after lap when the walls have such powerful magnets!! Really is a design flaw...

    last sector is very hard to be consistent as its undulating and with the lose cobblestone surface there isn't much grip.

    Touching the wall on the last corner will cost you atleast half a second, the key is to keep the momentum through that last sector without touching a wall and your lap time will be very fast.

    Tough night, well except for Warrior, but for us mere mortals that was hard work. Sadly Rotor and Zamp's were missing, Closey got booted and N64 rage quit, so we had a much smaller grid and plenty of spread by the end. Well done to Warrior and Musta, too quick. Musta had to work through the field due to the a d/c during qual so it was an awesome effort on his behalf. Good spread of stratagies as well, 1 and 2 stoppers, tyres lasted much longer with low fuel, but I had no hope of 1 stopping myself. Anyway, results:

    Warrior 1:01.092 (Pole)
    Mustafur 1:01.062
    Anon 1:01.051 (wtf - Sorry Warrior, nicked a point off you.)
    Tek 1:02.029
    Cyber 1:01.659
    Corzza 1:01.785
    Venda 1:01.461
    Stu 1:01.877
    Gary 1:02.296
    Close D/C
    N64 R/Q

    It was a disconnect Anon, no Rage Quit from me. I tried to rejoin so I could get the replay but my PS3 would not listen.

    What a night.......after the frustration of initially not being able to log in, then guys getting booted, then getting caught up in other peoples accidents its a good thing i dont have a dog........:(

    Anyway, I managed to get in right at the start of qual, not really knowing what to expect, other than Warrior would get pole, and i would use far too many brain cells trying to work out how the friggen hell he is that fast.

    I lined up 6th, with a 1:01:9##, about half a sec off my PB, so was kinda happy with that, given Corrza was the only class B guy in front, and he was 5th. The lights went green, and i got shuffled down to 7th, but then Cyber and Corzza got caught up so was up to 5th, with Gary, Ven and Tek behind them.

    I was happy to just putt along the back of the draft from anon, but an ordinary lap, saw Cyber and Corzza muscle their way past, and drive away, so i just focused on keeping the gap to Ven and Tek. I pitted on lap 16, and thats where it went pear shaped. I had a good gap back to Ven but came across Gary in the middle of the road at the back straight chicane and drove his rear axle into his radiator. I had the red panda head in the middle of my car, plus a collision penalty for my efforts. Ven didnt stop to see if i was ok, but rather drove past with the middle finger up and what i imagine was a big grin on his face. I managed to get back on his tail, before he pitted, and i came across N64 sideways in turn 3 coming down the hill. Again contact cost me bulk time, then out of frustration i came into the pits too fast and the car reset which meant i lost Ven.

    My last stint was just hot lapping as well as Daisy could :rolleyes: not making any ground on Ven or Tek, thinking about what might have been.

    Anyway, Well done to the podium, and Tek on a good drive. The one stop Magician !

    Off to get my car straightened, and find something i can kick.

    Yeah sorry for getting in your way Stu, I was trying to avoid you but I only succeeded in moving in front of you. Only to be disconnected 1 or 2 laps later. It was really one of those nights

    Yeah, all good. Just one of those nights.

    More frustrating, all the work we do to get everything up and running and the damn PSN screws everyone over to the point that they want to stop racing. Wouldn't have thought that was in PD's and Sony's mission statement .........
