    i moved on..but damn it was fun!
    Sorry for my no show last night guy's - all day digging holes and concreting in posts left me shattered.
    Judging by those lap times i would have been left in the dust by the 2nd lap anyway.

    Completely winged that strategy, can't believe how perfect i got the fuel on, seconds from going red when i past the finish.

    Pretty dissapointed with the result, first stint everything was going good, and was able to stay with warrior at the end of the stint i felt i had a bi
    t more pace too not sure if he was backing off or not, pitted on lap 12 as i was ahead and i didn't want him to undercut me, put in around 30 litres anf in the 2nd stint i was making mistakes all over the shot, i barely practised for this round so i was mainly going off warriors lines at the start and this stint i felt killed my race, i only got 1 lap in yhe 14s the rest was all 15s and worse, after rotor pitted warrior was catching me at over 1 second a lap, so i undercutted again hoping to.be next to him after the stops, warrior left the pits about 4 seconds ahead and from there slowly increased the gap with slightly newer tyres, i could see rotor catching rapidly with fresh tyres on his 3 stopper and i made a mistake around lap 36 on the last chicane and it brought him right next to me, i tried my hardest to defend but it was hopeless my tyres where on the end of their life, he made a mistake and i got ahead again but he was able to zip right past agian.

    Great racing last night. Pole was 2:13.810, I nailed 130R on that lap, could not have dobe it any better and so close to binning it at the same time.
    [​IMG]
    Grid Order was - warrior, mustafur, rotor, Anon, Cyber, Natman, Stuart, teknique and N64.
    [​IMG]
    Solid start and everyone managing to get through the first corner and the esses cleanly.
    [​IMG]
    Lap 2 and Anon losses it on the the exit of 130 R, great recovery to come back to finish 4th.

    Lap 13, I just managed to save it, I couldn't believe I did.
    [​IMG]
    Lap 14, Didn't save it this time and cost myself about 5 seconds.
    [​IMG]
    Lap 37 Rotor takes 2nd
    [​IMG]
    Lap 38 Rotor goes wide in the dunlop curb giving the place back to mustafur
    [​IMG]
    Final lap, Mustafur unable to hold off rotor on newer tyres

    I don't think there was much difference between a 2 stop or 3 stop strategy, maybe 3 stop being a couple seconds faster. I pitted on laps 13 and 26 putting in 50 and 30 litres, which was on the edge as I had to roll out of the throttle on the last stint to make it.

    Yep, Joe. Pole was Warrior I'm pretty sure, but there was trouble with Warrior being a bit invisible. Can someone confirm pole please.

    Yeah a good race guys.

    Congrats to the podium, just too quick guys.

    In short, I quallied 4th I think which was a big surprise, with a 37 dead (about). Was pretty happy with that, but after turn 1 I was back in about 8th I think after a bit of argy bargy, and me trying to move my handbag onto the passenger seat !

    By about lap 4 a few in front had fallen off the road so I was up to 4th with anon breathing down my neck, lap 8 i let him go on the front straight, and try to tuck in behind to pull me along and save my tires. All was going to plan till lap 14, when I was thinking how fast warrior was going, I missed the 100 m board and threw it into the barriers at the chicane. :confused: That cost me about 10 seconds on anon, and after my pit had put 64 in front of me.

    Second stint I was in 6th, and SLOWLY closing in on N64, with about 6 to go I was just in the draft and ran 2 wheels into the sand on the back straight which lost me the time I had made up :mad: Next lap I dropped it properly going through turn 2, and again cost myself about 6 or 7 secs.

    I pushed for the last 5 laps, but just couldn't get close enough to have a crack, finishing about 1/2 sec behind 64.

    Shoulda finished higher, coulda if I didn't drop it twice, woulda if I had more talent ;)

    Good race though, love that track. Laps 2 till about 6 were crackers, close racing in a pack is always enjoyable.

    Well done to warrior who I think has wrapt up another championship, and musta and rotor who kept him honest.

    Looking forward to next week at spa. Hopefully we have another full grid, and joe has a bit more luck.
