[Dzul]

So... how did it go chaps? Spill the beans!

 

[HF2000]

Results! Great racing of the new guys!

 

[Douglas Aird]

In case anyone is confused Clem, my oldest son, will be racing in the cup car. Don't be confused if I appear faster than usual If he knocks anyone off let me know and he will be washing up for a week.

Fantastic win for Clem.

 

[Shed 17]

Well done Clem and everyone really, great to see so many new drivers and from what I saw the driving was of a good standard with fairly clean lapping and passing.
Thanks for setting this up Han, and from the post race chat it sounds like the new guys enjoyed some proper , clean and well organised racing.
See you all in a couple of weeks( holiday time).

 

[WRT 53]

Superbe organisation !

Je ne savais pas comment faire pour faire le Drive Through après mon erreur pendant le départ.

A une prochaine j'espère!

 

[JOSEJ]

Yes, very good race. I like how clean is the people. This time I really was in the race, classified 10, what is very good for my standard but make a lot of mistakes and went out 2 times, hit Dave when breaking... however I enjoyed just fighting with other drivers...
Thank Han for organization

 

[Alfred Wayne]

Glad to see this "series" run again and more new faces show up! Its been nice to see our group grow even as AC gets another year older

however I enjoyed just fighting with other drivers...

that's what it's all about I've had some of my best fights here when I have 0% chance at finishing in the top 5 or 10... or even 15

Hope to see you all around again racing. This is a good group to learn from, both here on the forum and on track with the clean racing. You can actually learn how to go 2 wide through a turn

Congrats to the winners and finishers and thanks for putting this together Han. See you all tomorrow, hopefully with less blue flags in my mirror

 

[Aeitoun]

Thanks all for the race, it was a great experience. I hope there is much more to come

Cheers to all and congrats to Clem

haha. true, that was fun. i was sure we were going to wind up getting tangled up and wrecking ourselves out of the race, but it was a good battle to the end and we held it together. nice one.

 

[HF2000]

And for the new guys: we will have a championship on F1 tracks with the ABarth/Mazda combination for premium members. And most probably also a similar championship with an (easy) open wheeler like the Tatuus or the Dalara F317.
See the poll for that: https://www.racedepartment.com/threads/poll-f1-tracks-for-abarth-mazda.254591/
