Qualy
My target here was second place as that was the rubbered side of the track , my thinking was to get into the lead and control the pace and hopefully pull anyone near into destroying their tyres .
Went out quick and set a time just behind Tim which put me where I wanted , DJ then pipped the pair of us so I went out again but overdid it and got pole , DJ then went out and was trying like mad to beat my time fortunately he got me in the dying minutes of the session .
Race
I got the start I wanted but didnt push too hard so this allowed DJ onto my tail , I then discovered something I didnt plan for or expect , when a car was close up to me in the corners it unsettled my backend badly and at one point I did a huge slide through turn 2 which gave me a wake up , I then started to lift a little earlier to combat this , at that point I thought this is going to the wire , we both settled into a rhythm and then I saw DJ go off in my mirrors at turn 1 , I was just wondering what went wrong for him when I ended up staring at the server selection screen . Dammit
