I'm going to get my ass handed to me on a plate in the Mini's.....
Hey Ross, did you know there was a guy racing with us yesterday who, come to think of it had a name very similar to yours, and I think he won.
Twice. And with quite a margin actually. Maybe you can find him and ask how he does it
But seriously, awesome fun this was. Good numbers, nice track and a great set of skins. Excellent piece of work, mr.Thommo
.
Race 1 was great, with plenty of racing action. Well the first half was... Started 4th, up to 2nd, back to 6th from a friendly pat on the back from Jack
, up to 2nd again. Sorry for the paint-trade Neil, it was a really tiny gap on the inside, but I just had to dive into it.
Then after some 13 laps my Mini suddenly felt an uncontrollable urge to race off into the sandpit on the inside going into the Esses and against the barrier. Rupe, Neil, Howard, Carlos and Stu all had front row seats to see me fly...
But they strong, them little Minis.. When I finally got back on track in 9th, I could still do laptimes near my PB racing all alone closing in on David but never close..
R2 started great as well, from 6th to 2nd, when me and Rupe signed a truce to try and keep up with Ross together. We did keep up quite well for at least half the race, but still the gap only got bigger very very slowly, until Rupe started putting some pressure on me around lap 15, I paid too much attention to my mirror, and went off wide in 1st corner. Back on track in 7th, having a nice battle with Senad while the both of us were making good progess towards Jack and David in front, but again the race was too short for that..
Thanks all for some very good, very clean action-packed races; I can only hope the others will be just as good. And thanks to Thommo for an exceptional job on this series and the skinpack to go with it! Grats to both podiums and CYA next week!
