    Keep weather on. Unpredictability is part of racing after all, especially at Bathurst.

    If you choose to do weather, give it the chance to change 2 times, that way it is unlikley it will rain, making it unexpected

    Finished work and jumped straight into qualy, so looked forward to a close race after missing pole by half a tenth.
    Couldn't quite nail the consistency on fresh tyres but was holding on ok until the 2-stop pit window when I came across a backmarker who'd just come out on fresh tyres and half spun it over the mountain, putting me into the wall. Second pitstop was also decided in a similar fashion at Forrest's Elbow where I thought I was being let through but got turned into the wall.
    Aside from those 2 incidents, no real major stuff ups and was comfortably maintaining the gap to 2nd on the RH tyres, so it was a fitting way to end the last endurance race in GT6 with a disconnection, though this time it was my ISP rather than PSN.
    Thanks @Adam Wyman for organising and everyone else for turning up and going to the end.

    Awesome race. Was a good race until I was forced to stop the race and actually head out from home. Qualifying started well with a 2:04 on the wheel despite a couple of brake lockups early in the lap. Then the G27 suddenly broke, almost as if the encoder wheel broke. So raced with a controller. Just before I had to quit, I overtook Guitar through Mcphillamy thanks to being on younger tyres. Was also set to finish the race on 3 stops with only 6 laps on the RH tytres. After reading the post of the result, who knows where I would have finished. Also, my g27 seems to be working again too after plugging it into my PC and having a go on Project Cars. Looking forward to the Goodbye GT6 event now.

    Never done a dear diary on one of my races with ROOZ, but considering this was my last race on GT6 with Rooz, and it was a fun race until my mishap.

    Did a crap qualy lap in the 1 lap shootout, which luckily was enough for pole. After a couple of laps got my consistency going, and put out a few 2.02's in a row before the tyres fried and the gap to Bob was around 4secs and the rest of the field were out of sight. I just maintained the gap to Bob until the first pitstop where Bob undercut me.
    Came out 3.6 secs ahead and then put down 4 low 2.02's in row, a few low 2.03s and the gap to Bob was 10secs after 26 laps. Both Bob and I were having our issues with backmarkers which bobbled the gap between us, but I just concentrated on maintaining the 10 sec gap till pitting for the second time on lap 38.
    Then I had my stuff-up in the pits and never got to finish. :cry:
    Thanks again Adam for organizing the event.
    Still had a GR8 night because I love Bathurst :inlove:. If GTSport's only track was Bathurst, I would probably still buy it :giggle::laugh::roflmao:

    P.S. Thanks guys for all the great racing with ROOZ on GT6. :thumbsup:
    Probably cya's all on GTSport one day soon. (I have PS4 size gap on my T.V stand that needs to be filled asap)
