Went out early but struggled to get any speed out of the car , couldnt get near my practice times at all , I just about managed to break into the 53s .
Race 1
Got a good start but someone hit me , at first I thought they had hit me up the back but I couldnt see anyone which threw me a bit , it was enough to break my concentration and I ended up hitting the back of Ramon under braking , I spun him and then hit him again (BIG sorry Ramon) :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ , waited until he got going and stayed wide to give the place back but my stupidity cost us both badly . Chased after him but couldnt stay with his pace .
Pitstop went OK came out in clear air so I pushed and started to recover places , Cookie came out of the pits and joined me , we then diced for a few laps he was so much faster than me on the striaghts he was all over me like a rash , I had to drive the nuts off the car through the twisty bits to buy me time on the striaghts , that was a hard race .
Race 2
Got a good start but came across a slow starting car and had to brake and head for the barriers as someone was alongside me , I hit the barrier and tried to squeeze through but I tagged him and started some mayhem (sorry guys) , got going and came across DJ having a battle with a Matra after a couple of laps he managed to get past but I couldnt so I decided to pit and see if I could get the undercut . Came out on a clear track and just pushed , places came to me and I ended up behind Ramon , tried to push him but I was melting the tyres just to stay near him , the Matra was just too fast.
I didnt really enjoy this event , I caused too many incidents which is not like me and I was having to overdrive to compensate for the performance difference between the Techno and Matra , the Matra had a big edge here , I hope the difference is not as great on the next track .
