| Thanks for all the acknowledgement guys, it's said that everyone has their highs and lows at Bathurst, and the highs feel great! I know there are 161 laps to come, but to me, pole against this high level of competition in equal cars is as good as a win. With Vettel being beaten by Webber in the F1, and now disqualified, this has been a great weekend so far Just a couple of quick things to clear up before the race: 1) Driver swaps - are they allowed on the go, in the pits, or both? 2) The kerb at The Esses - I noticed a lot of people in the shootout cutting this slightly and assume slight cutting must be allowed in the race as well. 3) Will there be a formation lap to warm tyres and brakes? Should be a good one tomorrow! | |

| So rFMonitor to watch? I favour sitting on the server and see the cars directly, but that probably puts more load onto the server.
Not sure if I'd have time anyway. GPROC tomorrow aswell as Pre-Q for ATCC S5(Race 07).
But for sure I wish everyone the best of luck(especially to Mike, the force shall be with thou and thy team)! | |

| End of first stint... I was happy with 2nd in the category but at some point, while having a fierce battle with Mark, Matias and Dmitri I hit the wall and had to pit for repair We lost 1 minute in the process unfortunately... Luckily our Sierra is now leading, and Lorenzo is driving the Mercedes so he should catch up quickly We're getting in the thick of things, good luck all | |

| We had problems when swapping drivers, suddenly the engine died when control was handed to Mike and it showed no fuel despite having loaded a lot. Somehow it restarted and Mike was in control, but we lost all our lead over Carl and Samuel, which was almost 30 seconds when I pitted | |

| End of first stint... Built up a gap of 21 seconds over 2nd place, had a spin and lost 6 seconds, and then had some changeover glitch in the pits which kept us standing still for about 10 seconds. Exactly the same thing as you Alberto!
Lapping people is an absolute pleasure, hats off to all the drivers. Better than the real Bathurst, not joking. If I flash the lights it's to say "thanks"! | |

| Oh thank God I mapped ignition and starter last night! When I got control the car died and showed no info. As soon as I hit ignition the fuel showed OK and it started. My first lap was not very fast as it took a minute to focus. Pretty clean 1st stint for me. Made one error at top of hill and dinked the wall. Minor scrape. Good hand off to Gianluca. Man I was slow. Leaders blew by me so fast I think my skirt landed in the cheap seats of the stands. But I survived and I think I ran the times I practiced at. 4 cars were out of the race when I handed over so 16 left. Now out two fast drivers are back in line to run. Go Alberto and Gianluca!

| Just gave the Merc to Antoine with a 21sec lead Good 1st stint in the Sierra, Ben was definitely quicker than me and i had to battle hard with Martin until his crash at the Dipper, great fun until then I sent the car to JP at the end of the 1st stint, mainly thx to the Aussie's glitches he got into the lead just after the stop,and he's still leading, awesome job m8! I got the Merc from Antoine in 4th place, i got into the lead midway through the stint and i gave the car back to him with a 21s lead, things are going the right way for us atm! Now i'll have some rest | |
