| Snetterton...nothing to say. History repeats. R1: Again someone crash at T1 into me, and ruined my race. R2: good start, good fight with guys, but again riders from top are racing very agresive and ruined my second race. Very frustrating Sorry David for fliping car, my fault. Gratz to podium. Thank you for great broadcasting guys!!! | |

- Not to mention that it magically felt like I was dragged/pushed out of T2 on both starts and the car seemed to not get anywhere on the straights.
Just what kind of black magic happened there? not sure if it was something with the track or cold tires or both, but i noticed a lot of understeer in T2 when exiting the pits. i took it easy both starts, but on the 2nd race looked like a lot of people went wide there, i was able to hold a line and i think we were 4 wide at one point on that back straight, still 3 wide entering the chicane ;P best moment of the night for me. great racing all, grats to the winners! best, dave | |

| It was very weird. I felt like somebody punted me off, but everyone seemed too far away to have done it. There were many other cars that went off, as if there was something supernatural going on Anyway, RF and Leo have caused chaos in my install... I had the standard ffb for Q1 and R1, then I disco'd and suddenly my wheel became very rattly, then went numb when I tried to turn RF off in the ini. I am now also getting a second start-up window when starting my BTCC install, like those old games very you have to type in /start-up or something. Why did that happen? | |

| TBH, it also felt as if a car was leaning on my right front and I couldn't turn but head for the grass instead. One of the weirdest races I had so far... - Greg Goissen wrote:
after my drive through , I was 12th , a lap later someone push me off in first corner , I Restarted 18 th position .
My FFB felt like chewing gum and my car somehow just didn't accelerate as it should have in R2, so the contact in R2 was on me Although: If you had passed me on the left side, you'd have had a better run on me(not to mention the Revett Straight with my performance issue). No need to use the pit exit to overtake(is that actually allowed?). Because of that, you were a tiny bit too fast while the angle was very narrow and our lines crossed. The contact making you spin rather than me was unlucky, I never pushed you off though. | |

| Just saw the replay of race 1 and WOW!!! The two David's, Matthias and Jacob! What a terrific scrap you guys had in those last few laps. A real joy to watch and an example how HSO BTCC racing should be @Matthew in the first 300 meters of race 2 you caused 2 massive crashes...might be more careful next time | |

| This was a tough race weekend for me. Q1 completely ok. Race1: must turn out a lot of crashes in T1, cutter track and get Stop & Go, drive too fast in the pit, and must again to the pit, the same thing again, so I had this pit three times, my race was ruined.
Q2 little further behind, but time was better than the first. Race 2: Getting a Volvo just in the back of my car, it becomes a big crash, my rear wing go by, and this race is also destroyed.
Where do I enter a protest? | |

| Didn't have the pace of some of the other TC cars in quali but i guess i rode my luck, avoided the major crashes and took advantage of two good starts off the line for 2 1sts in TC.
Had a few battles a long the way but i wasn't quick enough to sustain them so let some people by. Was also conscious of my tyre temps as the front left was sky high.
Not seen the broadcast yet but im sure it will be great as usual. Thanks Admin and racers
Ps i also noticed that on the odd occasion going into T2 felt as if there was a force preventing me from turning properly... very noticeable on the warm up lap for R2 | |
