Had a fever and headache during the event. Whisky and chips helped a bit Had fun though, but decided to end the race and watch from the pits.

Keith, had some fun racing with you. Hope to see you next time, so we can have a proper battle

This is definitley not my kind of car, but thanks to Amir I got a good setup

Thanks RD as always

EDIT: @Keith. lol, H-shift in combo with these old cars is definitely tricky, but much more rewarding when you get it to work! Still working with heal and toeing...

Had a very short race.
Was massively tired from a huge night on friday night, and am still struggling to catch up on my sleep.
During practice and quali, could hardly keep my eyes open, so couldn't match the times I'd set during my offline practice.

Race was alright for the first couple of laps, but then my eyes started getting heavy and sore, and my concentration wandered a bit. Hit a few walls, and thought I'd call it a night before I wrecked someones race.

Cheers to those who turned up, and thanks to Stu for setting the show up for us

For me it was a Great race,

The car was very stable did not ever lose the car,Quali not that good 2.13
in Pract I did 2.9xx.

Race start on place 8 first chicane always problems but i came true in one piece,place 6 I think
good stay with the guys for a lap or 3 but not fast enough to stay there.

Halve way the race on place 4 and keep it there till thee end ,in spite of three
S/G (cutting first chicane and speeding)

Little argument with Amir when I get laped in the second chicane he hit me from behind because I give no room, it"s difficult to do that there,sorry Amir but you now I give always room even if I had to go true the grass.

Thanks guys for a nice race evening ,see you next time

Hans

hans yoy are right and you are a very fair driver. on this race you were lapped twice and didn't give room while i was chasing the leader. i tried to avoid yoy but you left me no place.sry.
