Thanks for organizing Michael, nice event and great to see a nicely packed grid.
I had 2 very close races with Stewart, always under pressure and a view in the mirror.
Very nice racing, glad i had the top end speed.

The Lexus with the right driver seems to be very fast

 

[Nascentes]

That was a great race! Could not put together a fast lap on the qualy and started last of the class. In between qualy and race, did a few setup changes that made the car much better, allowing me to be faster and more consistent.

On both race had good fights but some mistakes prevented me from achieving a better result. Now I know the car better and may close the gap to the guys in the front.

Thanks Michael and all the other driver for bringing the club back!

Thank you Michael for setting up the race!

It was the first time driving the 992 Cup and I have to admit the learning curve was quite steep.

Second race was quite better, even if I did a very involuntary dive bomb at the Bottom Bend, of which I'm not so proud.

Hello everyone!

I had a blast last night. I only did a few small tests in these Cup cars, but they are fantastic fun.
I was a bit unlucky on the first few corners on both races with the GT3s in front.
In the first race I made another mistake coming into the pit straight at the end of the first lap and went on to the sand. That meant a cool close battle with Johann a few laps later.
By the end I was all over Chris, but this track is very tricky to overtake, and I had the pace at the last sector, where it's really hard to overtake.

On the second race, I was last by the end of Lap 1, but managed to fight back to the podium positions with a few quick laps.

On to Donington!
Thank you all for racing!
