Smetsky Honda for me, please.

 

[Michael Carver]

Setup Posted

If anyone is interested, I posted my "base" 30 lap race setup...

 

[Kennett Ylitalo]

Cold laps, Hot heads. I'm coming too with a sponge between the throttle and foot.

 

[Gary Lennon]

Race one its all nudge bump bump pinball first couple of turns.
Race two is even worse at the start...bump nudge push,and these guys have the audacity to think thats a good pass and continue on?,gave up after 3 or 4 turns of being pushed out the way,i will not bother you guys again im clearly not near your pace and seem to just get in the way holding you all up too much,sorry.

Thank You Eric & RD for the facilities

 

[Michel Usal]

Hi guys. I hope I can join this practice, all depends on weather as I have something organized for work on friday night, but in case of rain it is to be pushed on saturday night. Since it also marks the debut of a two week vacation for me, I really hope friday night will be nice so I can I have fun with the RD bunch on saturday.

 

[Mtommi Tam]

On the real car real racing WTCC 09 Porto,more car crash on this track,
Now,tonight,Vitrual Racing RD WTCC Porto,I think becareful the last corner ( Short S corner ),this corner is very dangerous,Because this corner can made very fast lap,but,If can not pass this corner,big crash will be on this corner,

See all on tonight Porto

 

[Philip Antonia]

You know that's not true Gary mate. I saw replay of race 2 start and you got a rough ride, but you know that we all (who know or raced you b4) respect you as a driver here and wouldn't want to lose your presence in these races.

 

[Eric. K]

Guys, this race is only to test the 35 slots and the formation laps. It is not meant to be an actual race!!

 

[James Johnson]

Guys, this race is only to test the 35 slots and the formation laps. It is not meant to be an actual race!!

Noooo Eric This would be great time so we can get used to having 35 cars on track at same time - More Traffic. More chance of Incident.

 

[Gregory Degreef]

from my point of view, I would say: "don't close the door if your fingers are already in, or it may hurt for one as for the other"...
wathever... GR all and thx to let me drive with you guys...
THX Eric and RD... ​

 

[Warren Dawes]

from my point of view, I would say: "don't close the door if your fingers are already in, or it may hurt for one as for the other"...
wathever...

Hmmn!! Good to see the "friendly" tone of this group. :eyeroll:
After watching the replay of Race 1 turn 1, I now understand what happened and can see Gary's disappointment. I was pushed to last place in that incident, not your fault Gary, you were shoved into me.

Race report:
Great to see that this group was prepared to restart the race when Marty got a disconnect, good sportsmanship all round. :good::good:

Qualy: After being P3 from the first session, I expected to blow it second time around, but managed a much better time to get P2, almost edging out Keith :caked: . That was about the end of my luck though.

Race 1: The two BMW's, as expected blew past off the line, and then during an "interesting" turn 1 and 2, I had to dig my car out of the sand in last place :rip: . After that, it was hard to keep the interest up, but I ploughed on to finish P9.

Race 2: Saw some more bash and barge ahead, but tried to stay out of everyone's way this time. Had some close racing with a few of you which was fun. Rhys and I managed two crashes, no problems Rhys. IMO they were both simple racing incidents and you didn't need to wait, but thanks anyway.
Finished P9 again.

 

[Brandon Lawson]

sorry guys i could not make it tonight i had previous engagements that i could not pass up probably catch you all next week

 

[Marty Pierce]

Thanks for the restart on my behalf. Next time just let it roll I don't want to be the reason everyone was held up. Too much pressure for me.

There were to many of us tonight on this small track and not enough patients trying to make positions. I am guilty of this as well.

When someone like Gary, Yves or Warren Make a comment about people making poor decisions or being over aggressive its time to think about how we are racing. They have all helped me in that respect and have pointed out to me ways to improve in this area.

Gary we have had many great races with you on Fridays and I understand your frustration tonight but I hope you continue to race with us as you always raise the level of competition and add allot to the experience.

Sorry I left Early race 2 I became a little frustrated and thought it better to just leave, Marty

 

[Eric. K]

Let me chime in here... I will be reviewing the replay and take proper actions against anyone not following RD's Golden rule. It is supposed to be friendly club racing!! I will also re-think Friday's format and most likely increase tracks length.

 

[David Buxton]

:film:Just been looking through the replays and some of the racing was really close. Lots of overtakes and alot of great battles.:film:

I love this format. I find the battles are closer and go on longer where I think there is less practice on each track :nod:

 

[Gaëtan Legastelois]

Hum Finally ...

 

[Jason Halaby]

Gary - I watched the replay of race 2 and can see your frustration. I believe I was one those who made poor passing judgment (at turn 7, just before you retired). I did not realize I had made contact with you at the time, and am very sorry for that. I was mortified watching the replay and realizing I was probably the last straw for you.

I hope you will continue to race with the Friday night crew. Many of us less-experienced drivers still have a lot to learn and we learn it from the experienced drivers like yourself. I know I learned a few things tonight, and I sincerely apologize that one of them was at your expense.

[Marcel vd Aa]

Sorry can't make this one...if all goes well I will be @ Brand's Hatch for the WTCC races...

 

[Eric. K]

Marcel you and others know all about the rolling start you should be ok.
