Wish I'd have been around to race @Andrew James, but i missed it! - are they as much fun as the minis are to drive?

Perhaps more so.

Please sign me, thanks

Fabio Russo · Jul 11, 2014

I'm in

Everyone please, as the pit entry could be cause for incident if someone is close behind you, clearly move to the inside "lane" before the final corner when you are going to pit in order to make your intentions very clear. Thank you.

Well I got stuck behind someone slowing in turn 2 for some reason, I have no idea why, and had to spin to avoid him. That pretty much destroyed my good start put me at the back from lap 1. Had some good battles later, got the pit stop done, then caught and passed Phil only for someone to rejoin the racing line at a slow speed and cost me that position. When it happened the second time I just gave up as I lost far too much time.

I had fun, but it could (and should) have been better,

Remember not to join the racing line until you are up to speed. You can't come back on to the line slower than usual in order to hold your position; you made the mistake, it's up to you to rejoin without disadvantaging other drivers, as happened to me today. Thanks.

Phil Shillitoe · Jul 11, 2014

I was really enjoying that battle Andrew - until you got screwed :/

Troy Barman · Jul 11, 2014

Race went pretty well for me, 1st stint was close and clean up at the front and had a pretty hard fought battle with Kevin until i made a few mistakes and he was gone. Did the pitstop and got an 8sec gap down to 3 in the second stint but it wasnt enough.

PaulH · Jul 11, 2014

Enjoyed very much, had a good first stint, totally screwed up my pit stop tho, had a good battle with @Joao Fernandes (sorry for the bump though, totally lost my track bearings

)
Anyway, good race all

Jan Mikuž · Jul 11, 2014

Man, this was a long race...Not used to this. It just goes on and on...

Good racing, guys.

Joao Fernandes · Jul 11, 2014

No problem @Paul Hurlow it happens.

Great race with plenty of action until the end. Did some mistakes that made me loose some time but in the end still managed a good position.

Mark Breslin · Jul 11, 2014

Well, that's my first week over racing with GSC, and thanks to all for a great, fair, clean and friendly racing.

Had a good start up front and slotted in with the top 3 to have good clean battles with @Jan Mikuž and @Troy Barman. Although by lap 5 I was more of a spectator for the 2 drivers switching and running side by side, all cleanly done, fun to watch. THEN.......disaster..!

Lap 8, last sharp right hander I rode up the curb a fraction further than before and bottom the car, and spun across to the grass on the inside close to pit entrance.!!.

To make matters worse I recovered with the remaining forward momentum back on track only to stall the car!

Cars then flew past (thanks to all for not collecting me!), leaving me back in 8th place. Due to pit stops and luck I regained places, but it was pretty much a lonely race until the last 3 mins as Jan's tyres gave up to allow me to finish 3rd.

See you all soon!

Teemu Valkeejärvi · Jul 11, 2014

My first race with GSC and I enjoyed it a lot, had pace for a better result than 6th but made some stupid mistakes that cost me some time. The racing was clean and fair and I had a great time despite making so many mistakes

Can't wait for the next one!

Troy Barman · Jul 12, 2014

In a few weeks we could maybe use my 2014 F3 Skinpack just to get a a little more variety in skins, little teaser #8 Michele Beretta

Jake Adams · Jul 12, 2014
