Guys, guys, guys...
It's not the track, it's not the car...
I had some pretty good races at this track! Without cutting! Without people ramming each other!
Also had a lot of awesome races in the WTCC cars! Without cutting! Without ramming!
And the 2 wheels within white line rules could be OK if everyone follows it! It's possible! If you can't go that fast without cutting, than DON'T do it and go slower!

I have a pretty long day tomorrow but when I get home I'll run through the replays, watch everyone, and write down everything I see, then report it! (if I don't finish I'll continue that on Friday)

I want clean races! Like most of the races here at RD! (even in WTCC class, on tracks like this, it can be fun)

And finally: this is not the fault of RD! So thx Yuri and RD for hosting! Even if it didn't turn out very good!

Keith B would say: BOOK IT!!!

Nailed it on the head, excellent post Peter. Its so good I decided to put it in a frame (twice) so we don't forget :thumb:

It really is unfortunate that we didn't have a bigger field last night, as these cars are quite fun.

Race 1: I completely messed up the start. I actually went before the light went off, slammed on the brakes, came to a stop and shifted to second when the lights actually did go off. Luckily I didn't get a penalty, but it did leave me with a quite a bit of work to do. Clearly faster than Eric up a head, I was right on his tail within a lap or two, but was struggling to stay close as Eric's braking points were very different from mine and I did not want get into the back of him. I eventually did manage to get a run on him and slipped through into 4th. I was now pulling in Dennis quickly, however Dennis made it easy for me as he lost the rear getting on the power out of T1. In P3 now, I really just tried to settle into a rhythm as Dariusz and Yves were long gone. Last I checked the gap was at over 10 seconds to Dariusz. with about 7 or so to go I glanced up at the gap and was shocked to see the gap at under 5 seconds. I was now pulling Dariusz back fast - by over a second per lap. It wasn't long before I was on tail - challenging for 2nd. I found it hard yet again to really line up a pass, but eventually I got a run on him coming out of the last turn. As I pulled out of the slipstream Dariusz let off and slowed. Come to find out, he ran it out of gas.

Race 2: Got a much better start this time from 4th. Passed Eric and Dennis before T1, but had to concede a position to Yves. Dariusz had gotten a good start into P1, but lost it coming out of T1. I chased Yves for a couple of laps and was setting lap times rivaling my qualifying time, but it wasn't to be. Yves was clearly in a league of his own last night and was about a second a lap faster than me from the get go. After a fairly lonely 17 laps, I crossed the line about 20 seconds down on Yves and about 30 seconds up on Dennis.

So, that 's two second place finishes for me last night.
