Had good fun tonight overall, will post a report tomorrow as I am heading to sleep now. Thanks for a very nice evening of racing overall.

Also, I don't know if the champ standings are updated at the same time as the race results are put up but it looks a bit strange at the moment Smile

Join us in the Corolla cup then? Fair fighting, close, often 5-6-7 drives that are racing, and easier cars!

As much as i would like too it is not fair for me to swap classes now ...

I Know it is strictly forbidden ...

But if there is any chance me and Peter can Swap cars
i would love to try the Nissan and he could put the Sierra too much better use ...

I Do not have the skill to Keep the Whale on the track ... Sad

Great race for me tonight :top:

At the start Peter went by, and I was following him and Christian for some 5 laps before they started to pull away. I thought it would be boring from then on, but it wasn't, Peter spun and I found myself catching back on Christian ! :conduit:

Overtook him at half-way and quickly pulled away, I guess he was in trouble with his tyres. Mine were pretty fucked up too, and my car was seriously considering a drifting career :aie:

When Yves spun too and I found myself in 5th affraid

Tried as hard as I could to keep him behind, but entering the last I lost it under braking for Paddock bend, and he could go through :doh:

Glad with a point anyway, it's as much as I can hope for in this series, and it was lovely driving this Big V8 on my favourite British track :top:

Grats to all winners, see you next time :hello:

Brands Hatch... On le déteste, mais quand on s'aperçoit qu'on est dans le coup, on peut plus s'en passer !

Paddock Hill, Dingle Dell, quels challenges, quels freinages !

Autant en BTCC qu'en Caterham, bonne arsouille avec Frank en BTCC et lors de la première course de Caterham (une petite vidéo de la tête de course lors du premier tour de la première manche de Caterham serait très sympa à voir !), jusqu'à ce que je me plante à chaque fois dans un des virages précités ! Laughing

Puis grosse course poursuite en fin de BTCC pour rejoindre Antoine qui, à l'amorce du dernier tour part à la faute dans Paddock Hill, j'en profite pour prendre la 5ème place. Merci Antoine :hello:

, mes pneus étaient morts, jamais je n'aurai pu te passer !

Idem pour la seconde manche de Caterham, belle bagarre, non plus avec Frank , mais avec David avec qui je perd le contact en fin de course, ayant trop usé mes pneus en début de course, et après bien sûr un inévitable passage dans le bac de Paddock Hill ! Rolling Eyes

.

Merci à tous pour cette superbe soirée !

Second race was far from easy, I really didn't want you in my slipstream but you didn't want to slow down. :bangry:

I was really on the edge for the first 5 or 6 laps.

Is it possible that Miller stoled my points of C Class yesterday?

Wenham have 1 point and me 0...

Tonight confirmed I need a new wheel, pedals kept disconnecting meaning my brake rates and config defaulted, every time I.braked they locked up. Disconcerting when overtaking and being overtaken as I could have gone straight on. Poor night for the escort

Had a great qualifying, where I was 1st in class for a while before Jonatan turned up. First 2 laps of the race were a fight with me and Jon, then I stupidly turned into the corner when I failed to notice Jonatan had moved to the inside of me, sending him pointing the wrong direction-sorry! From then on, I didn't have too much of a threat as Ben seemed to be struggling with a setup at Brands (I'm using the default set, seems to feel quite nice) and so I managed my tyres to the end, making sure not to use them up too much just in case Ben or Jon fought back at me. I had green tyres at the end of the race, which was a nice feeling to have-hopefully will come in useful at the next Brands Hatch round. Despite my silly manoeuvre on Lap 2 which caused Jonatan to spin, it was mostly a good race for me and also went on to claim my first WIN

To begin with, no worries Alessio, it was a racing incident as I said on after the race, I was far back but had a good move and hoped you would see me when I went for the inside in the second to last corner, unfortunatly you didn't and I'm just happy you could keep the car together there, was affraid you went with me Embarassed

So no David, I did not protest Razz

That was a very good battle for the opening laps but after that incident I was overdriving so were all over the place, couldn't keep my head together so lost another 20-25 seconds more from 2 half-spins, going wide at Surtees a couple of times and so on.

Finished 3rd in class and 10th overall which was quite nice but it could have been so much better, my set seemed very very good compared to most others, especially on the fast right sweepers in the GP area and through Paddock where I made moves into Druids on both GrA, B and C/D cars Smile

Caterham:

Had some nice racing in Race2 of that, making sure I stayed on track and tried to get up with David and taking advantage of his and others battles Smile

In Race1 I made several misstakes but had a very nice battle with Carl for a couple of laps, saved Race1 for me to have such a good battle :drink:

Overall fun but frustrated I couldn't keep my driving together in BTCC were I had a chance at the victory but good battles, also having battles with Christian (sorry for the tap at Druids on one of the last laps, missjudged your speed midcorner), Peter, Ole Marius, Franck and Dave beside the opening laps battles with Ben and Alessio Very Happy

I tried to close the inside and thought I had done enough, but you "insisted" on trying it on the right until you were on the grass I am sure you'd have caught me on the left side aswell with the slipstream, sorry. I really thought you'd go left as I was closing the inside line

No problem David, that's racing is all about. I didn't had a perfect balance with the car, and do a lot of mistakes.

I will be better in snetterton Wink
