Was good fun, But i fear the Scud BRM's will be blown away by the NART Ferrari's in the Von Tripps race, Unless we can hang onto the back of you.

dream on

Please do not pay much mind to the auto loading shotguns linked and facing to the rear

......for disabling and distributing any waterfowl(that's birds/ducks) that maybe wandering astray from the lake. Better to hit a well distributed duck than one intact.

hello all!

hello all, absent pour celle ci.

Gotta be a really fun race! I'am in!

salut à tous et bonne rentrée
hier lors d'1 chute stupide à velo je me suis fait mal au pouce

Qualy session launched.

ah cool je voyais personne j'ai eu peur
tu joues avec nous ce soir Ben?

not sure i m gonna make it on time..

let you guys know

Gerard, tu es parti juste quand je relançais pour toi, dommage.

DQ commence bien
J'ai eu un retour garage a 10 sec du départ.

couldn't make it so absence confirmed

OMG that was my first full legit win even though I am pretty sure Mick ran into bad luck. Drafted him for entire last lap and got him on last turn. Had I passed earlier his V12 would have eaten me in half a straight. Engine took a beating that last lap.

Good clean pass on your pit exit Mick. What happened?



Damn arms are shaking!

Well done Mike, Unlucky Mick, and Well done to Steve

Cheers for the restart (Even though i caused one of a few) Was surprised to see i had been penalised for speeding on pit road.

Wont even speak about my race as it was _______. Insert whatever profanity you wish!

See you all at the next one, Zandvoort, Dont forget your bucket and spades!

Either way will be fun.

Congrats steve and mike great race. I couldent go anywhere at all if i tried to pass it was like a parachute on the back of my car. So i just waited till the last lap to try to make a move, went below the yellow line on the last corner trying to pass so i let off a bit and it got sideways. Fun race guys , it wont be so easy next race Steve

Every time I looked I saw a .3 sec gap from 1 to 2. Was it like that the whole race? If so, amazing. Steve must have had a heart attack twice.

Richard drafted me for many laps. My rear end got very loose when he was there. Was happy to let another car pick you off Richard, you were fertilizing my gray hairs nicely and killing the others

Yep the whole race. I could've tried to pass but there's no point when hes just gonna drive back around me. It was fun hanging in the draft plotting my last lap pass but i failed on the final corner

Cheers Austin,was a tough race keeping concentration and not making a mistake,running a slightly longer 5th gear helped me,as in draft i could stay there and pass if i was behind,your right about next race zandvort is not ferrari track,so should favour your car. Congrats to all finishers.

Still sorry for the evening of restarts. Fault is from Richard.

J'ai raté mon départ, un peu énervé avec les restarts et ma femme qui avait justement besoin d'aide à ce moment, lorsque les deux minutes se sont écoulées, j'ai vu des voitures bouger, puis s'arrêter,j'ai cru que la course était lancée et qu'il y avait un crash à l'avant,alors,j'ai foncé, foncé....., et départ volé !
Fin

Ah là là !

Martins fault left the pitlane speed limit on

course en solitaire et monotone pour moi !!
un faux départ et me voilà déjà contraint de faire un passage par les stands
avec ma VMax à 245 Km/h je pouvais pas espérer mieux sur ce circuit !

True, but it's you who hold the steering wheel and push the pedals. And a message for the pit limit appears always on your screen, when you quit your stand.
