Even though I am not going to race in this, here's a revised track map to help you guys :roflmao:

A nice Kentucky Bourbon in hand, here are a few thoughts from my race.

I do like setting up my own cars, today's was almost a dream.
I must be one of the worst drivers to ever launch a race car from the grid?
Thank goodness Bjorn got talked into a Default car!
A "Thank You" to who ever put the marks on the curbs showing Snr where to apex, they were just early enough to send him off track on the way out.
I'm Glad also that Snr keeps going for the two tire stops and ends up losing time in the last half of the race.
Please, someone find me an open track, I can't handle cars being right in front of me, entering a corner Really screws me up on braking/entry points and all I ever do is lose out to the driver in front[and back :(]

Good "stuff" today, good crowd, some passing going on, good gang of drivers.
 
Another Mini Friday I probably should have avoided.
Qualify:
Managed to get in for a few minutes of practice before the qualifying session. Been practicing all week for RylR Super Prix in the F3000s so huge slow down jumping into the mini. Somehow managed to qualify in 10th then ran my best lap in warmup.
Race:
Lost a couple of postions with a slow start but stayed with the pack. Got under @Tim Ling coming out of turn 1. Tim attempted to get his postion back by trying to jump through a brief hole between myself and @Alex Odell which we both tried to close resulting in Tim catching my back fender putting us both into a spin. (I'm not really sure if it was just a race incident or if one of us was at fault, it all starts at 83 seconds in if anyone would like to take a look and possibly comment. If I was the one at fault my appologies to Tim)

Chased him briefly for the next few laps but as I said after a week of F3000s in wet and dry just couldn't settle into the car. Did trudge on however and ran the entire 40mins. Finished 12th after retirements.

I have noticed as well you can gauge how well everyone is doing based on the ongoing chat. Everyone spread out its very quiet, everyone running pretty close lots of chatter :):)

Bjorn is in the back room, sharpening up my beheading axe.....no, that's not how it's done.
If either of you think it was an "incident" then give it a day and a PM to talk it over. If that does not resolve it then present it to staff[Bjorn or myself] in a PM with your argument and a video showing the incident from several perspectives so we can present it to all of the staff in RD for a review and discussion.

In the end, Tim is the last to leave the scene, if he was "responsible" he has fullfilled his "Golden Rule" responsibility

 
@Robert Covey Looking at the replay, I think I'm more at fault :( TBH I didn't realise I had tapped your rear at the time, but I'd put it down to just a racing incident, if you don't mind:notworthy:

No worries at all Tim. As I said, think we sorted it on track and even viewing the replay pretty sure it was just the two of us racing hard for the position. Its just unfortunate the contact sent us both sliding off track. Monza should be interesting.
 
Well I just had a great fun hour or so testing all the cars, I jump in one test it and think, "yeah this is the one", then I try another, "no its this one", then another etc... :)
I got got down to 2 now, Viper or Saleen ;)
