    Yer Miki still so close and i thought you had me there for a while. did the late pit thing and had good tires at the end. Good times there by all, 3/10's between 1st place getter and last. And Corzza great time nearly down to the 2's

    After what happened at Tsukuba a couple of Sundays ago i'm going to pull the pin on the rest of the season but will return for season 4.

    Good luck to the rest of Div 2.

    come on, thats racing....(i was in a good spot to battle for 3rd in the championship. how do u think i feel)
    its hard to overtake without a little door rubbing here and there.especally when u make it hard to pass. unfornatly a little rub in the wrong spot ruined it for both of us.
    am i ment to just back of and follow u around all day?
    its hard to judge where the front of the car is. so a little tappy and ruby is unavadable sometimes. especally when trying to get close for a slipstream/or a better line or drive for a overtaking move,
    its not as if i did it on purpose. i wasnt dive bombing u and using u as a rail.

    just had to put my point accross.
    dont want everyone to thing i purpossly go out and bump people around the track all day.
    if im completly out of line let me know.

    Look at the fastest lap times at Tsukuba Darko and Firewind. It was bound to be tight between you and the replay doesn't really show anything other than racing.
    Please reconsider Darko.

    I'm having a BBQ tomoz with some rowdy mates, but I will make every effort to get myself online by race time. However, if I am deemed to be too tired and emotional by my crew chief I will be retired to bed and return next week. I doubt I'll be much of chance anyway as I haven't done any practice, (I'm imagining corkscrew + tamora = funtimes) so I'll probably be a mobile chicane if I'm there (the belly full of beer will be an obvious enhancement, but probably not enough).

    Room is open boys. Barra's laying down some quick laps. Tough track on these tyres... It makes you earn every single corner.

    Qualifying will start in 12 minutes. If it's already running when you get in, gets some laps done as the race will start at 8pm sharp (EST).

    My story:

    Well I qualified 7th I think, and was really struggling from the get go, and I needed a decent race finish to keep a cmapionship lead.

    So as qualy finished and we were getting put onto the track, I was stuck on the black screen for ages. Then as soon as I joined the race, everyone was already at the first corner. So I just had to knuckle down and put in some lap times and try to catch everyone. So I caught a few people within a few laps, then had a great battle for a few laps.
    Then I made my way into 6th, caught firewood and passesd stumbles when he stuffed up which put me into 5th.

    Then I had a great battle with firewind on the last lap, he broke early a few times which stuffed up my exit speed to try and pass, then almost passed him on the last corner and almost passed again on the final straight, ended up coming 5th by 0.1

    Overall a pretty decent race, but very dissapointed how it put me in 20 seconds late which screwed my race

    Awesome racing. Not a great track for this car/tyre combo... (well, when you're used to a bit of grip anyway...lol).

    I managed a PB of 1:40.2 in qualifying (about a second quicker than I had gone in practice). That put me 3rd on the grid.

    Got a decent start but had Barra breathing down my neck and he was closely followed by Firewind. I made a small mistake and they both got through. Few laps later,, Firewind over-shot the corky and got a penalty wich allowed me through and gave me a bit of breathing room. I stayed in 4th until lap 14 where I just had a couple of crap laps.. that allowed Firewind and Corrza past and put Bonus right up my tail-pipe.

    I managed to screw up the second last corner and put my wheels into the dirt, but I stayed ahead of Bonus (he'd backed off a bit after giving me a nudge at the corky)... Only to get to the final turn and run out of track due to dirty tyres from the previous indiscretion.... Bugga.

    Was a good fun race though. Chev and Neishy had a ball up front, Chev taking the win by .5 of a second. Well done boys.

    :)

    Congrats to the podium finishers!

    I reached my goal of trying to break into the 41's. Nearly got a 40.xxx in qualy.

    Race was great fun, went better than expected. Had some good little early battles at the start of the race then made
    a lil mistake and from that point on battled with MikiD for the rest of the race... 9 laps of or so... great driving there MikiD.
    Was in 6th at one point, finished 8th with Miki .3xx behind!

    Yay! My 3rd win of the season, and off the back of my first pole position to boot! My time of 1:39.3 was good enough to get me in to the front, although Neishy ran a very similar time but didn't quite get me.

    Wow, what a great race. All I could see in my mirrors for most of the race were the grill and headlights on Neishy's TVR. He put some crazy pressure on me in the last 4 or 5 laps, tried to overtake a couple of times but couldn't quite pull off the move. I knew he would be quick but when i saw his qualy time was almost identical to mine i knew he was going to be a handful in the race.

    Thanks to Neishy for some very clean and fair racing and congratz to the other boys in the points. Bad luck to Corzza with the technical troubles.

    that was a great race. much better result then last round. barra put the pressure on me and i outbraked myself. second half of the race was intance knowing i had one of the fastest drivers in the league hunting me down. stumbles was making alot of mistakes in the last few laps witch worked in my favour. cant believe i held of corzza for 4th.
