    As a driver who spent a fair amount of time chasing your bumper :lol: i'm kinda confused to why you didn't have more podiums. You have a method of turning into a corner slightly early and micro correcting to the apex and then getting a great exit. One other driver i've noticed using that style is a Mr M Down. Good company indeed.
    Most agressive driver, hmm. A couple of us have blue paint chips on our cars sides and rears. :D
    Best come back has to go to our Anonymous part timer, our Hollywood director, and nude driver (apparently). :lol:

    Div 1 has had more turn over than most Divs, Im not gonna speculate why as its not my place to speak for others. Been many great drivers in Div 1, JC Season 1 then Beau ect ect. Be great if they would all come for a one off allstars/Ledgend show down .

    Yea everyone Div 2 has been pretty on it Koastr n Carns everyones been hungry but its been pretty fair, one or two racing incident/accidents (my famous one at indy road comprising Chaos race comes to mind, my only incident for the year still feel bad about that one :p...I wasnt on it, nervous driving out braked myself)

    M1k If i had to vote for most gentlemanly driver you'd be up there, I susprised at monaco you didnt try pass me sooner as you were clearly faster than me. I was still nervous driving with you right behind and almost wanted you to pass me. That race gave me good confidence at Suzuka when u were right right behind that I didnt have to worry about you doing anything crazy and I could drive my own pace...(probably the most enjoyable race for the season for me that one)

    ...Now I better stop this right now before Annon or someone throws around Team "Brokeback" :D

    stupid effin glitching.....really disappointing way to finish what has been a fantastic season...... :mad:

    I had a bad feeling during qually, i had the tire glitch where i couldnt hear the tires, and they wouldnt heat up.....so i disconnected and re-entered and then it was ok. I put in an ok lap, on par with what i had done in my prac and lined up 5th on the grid with a 2.30.7 i think.

    Then the race countdown..........waiting, waiting.......black screen..........thinking oh oh.......then all of a sudden here i am on the grid on my own, with everyone else heading into Eu Rouge. I got going and was last by about 16 secs so thought would see what happens. Was thinking i would park it, but By lap 3 i think it was chaos i caught then it took another 3 laps to catch cob. I caught up on the back straight, then Cob seemed to slightly loose it coming onto the front straight, we had very slight contact door to door, and then he disappeared for a few secs...

    Cob, i checked the replay of our touch and some weird stuff went on there. (TEK CHECK THIS TO SEE IF I NEED TO BE PENALIZED PLEASE). Was side by side and we had a slight touch (pretty gentle compared to some of the touches i have seen through the season) but he went spearing off at 90 degrees into the pit wall. For the rub we had this shouldn't have happened, I slowed, but couldn't see you anywhere, then thought about parking it again but thought that we could check it after the race.....Really sorry if you thought i punted you, we definitely touched but i think it glitched you into the wall, the same as what happened to me with miki at indy road.

    So i pitted on lap 8 i think, and after the shake out was up into 7th.....then saw the message that Neishy had been disconnected.....not sure what lap it was but knew that it would have a massive effect on the championship, also knowing that miki was only 2 places up the road.

    I really think that Neishy should be given second in the championship, on lap pace he was towelling me, and miles in front......even without the 16 secs i got pinged at the start. who knows where i would have finished, but from grid 5, i would have hoped to be in the mix for a podium, not the win, he was too fast for me. A really disappointing way to finish, was hoping to fight for the championship with bonus and see what Neishy was able to do but i didn't get the chance..... :(

    Anyway, after that i just cruised around with veno for the last few laps, had a bit of a slide and he got through with one to go so i finished a frustrating 8th.

    A real anticlimax for me which was a shame.... especially after having a much better season than expected. My hope at the start of the season was to be competitive, and maybe get a podium. After the first race, i was very happy, and was hoping to stay in the mix for the rest of the season.

    Thanks for Tek for hosting each week. And thanks to everyone else for what has been (except tonight) a very enjoyable season of close, hard but fair racing.

    Congrats to Bonus for the championship, i think you were too fast for me anyway tonight (and perhaps more consistent over the season) , but i suppose i wanted to race you tonight and didn't get the chance. Thanks to Miki, Barra, Veno, Aussie, Nieshy, anon and Tek for all the great battles we had......looking forward to season 6.

    well done boys top season was a great epic last race (bad luck to Neishy real kick in the guts m8)
    congrats Bonus, Anon on the top 2 podium spots, i could catch you's boys. but i'm absolutely wrap with 3rd.
    And Barra what can i say m8, but great wicked awesome dam top battle man we had so many up and down for both of us through the many laps of white knuckled of door to door, overtaking and bumber to bumber racing with only 2 or 3 touchs all the way through the fight for 3rd, great driving m8.
    couldn't think of a better way to fight the last round of the season.
    you made it so bloody hard to get that 3rd spot m8.
    once again thanks boys for the best season, so enjoyed it.
    thanks to tek and barra 4 hosting the season top job boys.

    Well, another race, another epic battle (in which I came out 2nd best, again :(). It would be nice just once to have one of these multilap, multiple position change battles and come out of it with better than "well I made him earn it". O well, good driving Aussie.
    Hard luck to Stu and Nieshy for the GT5 related issues, hope you dont hold a grudge against my lounge in future :p.

    Good season lads, lots of close, clean racing, its just a shame that I had to miss a couple of them, otherwise I might have been in the mix for the overall podium spots. Bring on next season!

    Time to go looking for a car... dont forget that we can use any car in the game now, with the tuning restriction option in the race setup. I guess a premium car would be the preferred way forward. To the dealership!!!

    Yer very disappointing end with 2 contenders falling foul to the pitfalls of Gt5, not the way I would have liked to take the race win & championship. Such bad luck Stue and Neishy, and no i don't have friends at polyphony that cut your connection, I realy wanted to battle for it. I have had the most enjoyable season yet, have had running battles with so many different drivers each week and all race. The competition has been the closest i have seen on GT5 with so many in contention each week.
    The race; I finally got into the low 229's in my practice room just before the race room opened, and got there again in the practice before qualifying. Could only manage a 229.777 in qualifying and that put me in 4th with Neishy on Poll and Stue right behind me, I was so nervous and was happy with where i qualified any way. Got a fairly good start and had a good battle with Miki, Been a pleasure to race with you for the passed 4 seasons Miki you got my vote for the drivers choice most popular driver (like Lowndesy). Neishy and Anon were getting a little gap then Neishy just took off, it got to 10 second and i caught up to anon lap 7 followed him closely for a bit and decided to do a early Pit, lap 8 I thought it was, but no its lap 7, :):):):) I think I've blown the race, how am i going to go at the end now. Anyhow i pushed on and as Anon pitted he must have made a little mistake and I got the jump on him and got a 5 second lead as Neishy left the scene (sorry to mention it again Neishy felt so bad for ya) I tried to keep it on the track drive fast but not scrub the tires too much as my fastest lap times showed. As the tires went off anon was catching up each lap and I honestly thought I was going to have to yield the lead any time soon. As it turned out I was able to hang in there by the smallest of margins and take the win. Great pressure Anon and great racen by all you guys, good to have you in Gt5 Aussie and well done on 3rd and a great Rookie of the year season.

    I'd like to thank all involved in making it such a great season, firstly Tek for hosting Captain each week, did a fantastic job, Miki Aussie and others for posting fastest laps and race result, real team oriented league, see a job needs doing you guys just do it.
    And real Big thanks must go out to the people behind the scenes and especially Koaster who did so much work for all the divisions and other race series. Much appreciated Koaster, did all this without participating in the races, must have been tempting to want to race seeing the close racing and comments on how much we were all enjoying this season so much. And last off all, all the Div 2 drivers what a great bunch of guys, been the utmost pleasure to race, practice and just socialise with.



    Have a good break all, test some cars and see you next season, keep an eye out for some casual racing till then Anon always comes up with a good race format and Seido does too.
