Rules:
If you have not entered the server and driven a few laps with fellow drivers before we go to qualifying you are to late for that session. Please think of your fellow drivers and get out on track with them, watch how they drive, you can't race with guys you have not seen drive.
We ALL brake a little differently and drive the corners differently, get used to how they drive and then we can all race more safely.
If you drop out of the server during qualifying you can return.

This is being held in our Club, using Club Rules, and should be driven in that spirit.

seems like we will have a race this Sunday

Jonatan Åcerclinth · Nov 1, 2014

I'm free this Sunday, never driven the track....

Hmm.... Sign me up please, looks like it could be fun

Probably a Mercedes or GT350 unless I just drive for the sliding, if that's the case, here I come Zagato

Kjell Eilertsen · Nov 1, 2014

Had so much fun in the last race, would love to sign up, but it clashes with the F1 race so I'll have to pass

We'll see what next week brings. GL HF all!

Jonatan Åcerclinth · Nov 2, 2014

Sorry guys, due to food being late (been out working almost the whole day but need to get some dinner in me before I do anything else) I might miss one or both of the races tonight

I hope I make both or at least one of the races but if I'm not there, make sure to enjoy yourself, I really like the flow of the track myself

Was a lot fun the first race! I was driven the Zagato. When I go to the pit in Lap 5 or 6 I was far behind the field. After the tyre change would done I was speeding just an bit and got an drive through I did the lap after also a small return throw the pit. I finished with 2nd from 4th.

On the second race I drove an GT350 but only up to the 2nd lap then I failed badly and crashed the suspension and engine aswell. Then I watched the Race from @Srinath Sundareswaran and some others was a lot fun.

Great fun last night. There were some problems with the pit stops though (me included).
In R1, I completely missed the pit entry on my first attempt. I did another lap and still careered into the pit lane out of control. By the time I'd gathered it up I couldn't find my pit box - I'd missed it.

Fortunately however, I'd somehow avoided a speeding drive through penalty. Unfortunately, it was L10 and I'd missed my pit stop window. I decided to keep going, change my tyres on L11 and retire just before the end of the race in the interest of fair play. However on my THIRD ATTEMPT at a pit stop, after changing my tyres, I got a speeding drive through penalty...... so I retired.

R2 was much better for me. I came down off the banking early for my pit stop with @Allan Ramsbottom right behind me. Unbelievably, I still drove past my pit box and had to reverse back around Allan, handing him the place we'd been fighting for. This time Allan got a drive through.

I ended up cruising around on my own for the last few laps, but elected not to wait coz I'm a massive woossie and couldn't turn down the chance of an easy win.
