This could be interesting for me. I have now, as of 2 hours before the race, driven a total of 3 laps on this track ever. My qualy will be my practice, and my race will be a shambles lol! Im still turning the wrong way over some of blind crests :lol:

Was perhaps the best race I have had in LFS last with Sly in race 2. Real ding dong battle, trading fastest laps, and splits with each other, gap under a second for the first 12-13 laps. However, ruined any shot of getting past him when coming out the pits I cooked my clutch, so had to cruise round for a couple of laps before I could go anywher near full throtte! Amazing racing though, very intense!

Sorry to Sugo who I tapped in race 2 going into the first corner. I was close to sly as he was passing you, and saw the gap still open, so went for it, ony for it to quickly close, 100% my fault so sorry mate.

yeah was great stuff, had some nice battles with dyno, not actual passing very often but he'd gap me then id close and so on. was abit annoyed with myself not setting the car up right had far too much understeer which with some help from dad saw the car get better from race1 to race 2 but still not great only after both races did i manage to knock half a sec off my pb quite easily with heavy fuel and hard tyres though i still dont think i coulda kept up with sly and thorns you guys were crazy fast. Well done to both of you and to sly for winning the series im pretty sure.
And kudos to everyone for having two races controversy free lol :D

Yeah it was great fun! I was kinda dissappointed that my pitstop went so well in race 2 cos it took me out of sight of Wildboy who I had some excellent battles with. I think we both suffered from 'form fade' pulling away from the car behind, only to make a few mistakes and put themselves back within half a second of the driver they had just passed!

Totally agree :), was a real cracker !!!

a pity i made the false start in race 1, otherwise I have a feeling that would have been similar :)

Now... what to do for the next series :)
