1st off .. What a Track !!..Love running @ this place with the F3 Fanatics Smile Also Big Thanks too Tim & my Teammate David for setups ..
I seemed to be losing a lot of time in the second split ?? over a second ?? Not a Nice feeling ..1 sector up or even ..2'nd + 1.5 off the pace ?? when I try to brake Later I'm in the field talking to the Cow's Wink ha ha anyways

Race 1
Started OK.. picked me way past some crashed pile just after the The Viaduct ..lost some places out of Tannery Corner ..Front Left showing Damage after Kissing The Fence but it's not effecting the handling so was OK ....lap 5 ... Past R Newman as he over shot @ Mountford Corner and Djc is just leaving the pits as I start Lap 5 so 3 of us close by past The Viaduct Yellow Flags so i'm being careful Of what might be waiting ..Kings Bridge and i can see two Cars Ahead one of which has Problems Looks a HandFull to keep straight ( we've all Been There and will again) we turn Left @ 'Pub Corner' and cross the Rails the car in front changes direction so i go to the right side and try to give room Djc is looking to get by and I'd like to let him past as he's way quicker ..he makes a move but i take a hit from his right front and my right front parts ways via a telegraph pole ... so I have a Wheel Barrow and try to make my way back for a long pit ...Flying Mile ..not so Flying and very long when trying to limp home ..I get maybe 2/3's the way down when i hear what must be the leaders so try to keep clear .. Rikard passes .. then I saw Gorka & my Team mate coming up ..stayed left and off track ..Gorka passed but as my teammate arrived for some reason my car snapped right and onto the road ..Broadside Sad I could not be-leave it and tried to pull or stop it but I was a passenger waiting for the HIT !! I know "That's Racing" But Sorry David Sad after this i seemed to be beached up and try all I could was going no where Sad

Race 2 (a) Got off the line and down the road looking ahead I seen what looked like the Tasmanian Devil at work Dust and Car Parts EVERWHERE Smile ha ha ha ha got rear ended by someone who must have been flat out as it broke my engine and took off a rear wheel..YELLOW FLAGS ?? Wink Lucky it seems to many people in this so "restart" was called Smile
Race 2 (b) again got off the line and just looked to stay out of bother this lasted till the Long Bridge ..i could see the cars hitting before I got there but with cars ahead and behind !! this would be down to luck and chance ...I Slowed as much as I could BUT still hit someone laying across the road and got stuck between the Melay that was kicking off Wink I took a bad hit in the rear that spun me round and cost me a rear wheel I feared the worst... but " Great Scott" .. I had Drive Smile so reverse off the Bridge and turn round...Crawl Up the Flying Mile ..hoping that race one does not revisit me ...I get to the Pits and proceed with a 257 sec pitstop ..Holy Sheep Shit Smile I could pour a Point of Guinness or 2 !! ( I didn't ! Don't drink and sim race Wink ) after sitting and watching the runners passing Twice ! I get going again 10 laps of Touring Around and I've picked up 10th place Wink he he he ..Time for them 2 points of the Black Stuff Wink Congrats to the Winners and Commiseration's to the Wounded ..great work by the Server handlers ..

Some things I was thinking ..If anyone could if they know .. the up coming Tracks ..What lap times ..(Normal Runners and the Very Fast) are we expecting would be nice to get a whereabouts on time
..and Set Ups ..if we could get them here or somewhere ..as I work evening shifts and Lucky to find some body on the server late night/early Morn .. Wink Cheers all

Hi all
after some training l got down to mid 17 times and Could repeat that in Q.

Race. 1.
stayed out of trouble for most of the race and kept 12th position which is good for me. But then shock, is there maybe a lap missing in my fuel. Not so easy to do this math while drivingbut after some time l realize itis not going to work out3options come to my mind. 1) try to save fuel,I am missing just 0.3 laps . It might be possible toshift to neutral and roll on the straights rather than braking late. l did not have a key assigned for neutral and could not try it out. The second choice would have been to slow down, get lapped and make it to the finish right behind Rikard. l went for the third option and entered pits for a 2nd refuel. Took longer than expected and option 2 mighthave worked better. It still felt ok to have finished.

Race 2:
tried to stay out of trouble again but when I saw the road packed with cars in front of me before the long bridge I knew something bad was going to happen - and it did. A car was bouncingback from the fence and threw me into the river. That was the end of my race.

best, Tobias
Do you even lift?

I remember seeing lots of dust through that whole straight and yellow flags then saw you on the left struggling and was lucky to brake safely through the right and pass you (I say lucky because of my braking inestability).

If we could just make the live timing section to work back again we could see all hotlaps there as people practice online.

For the next fun event I took some laps yesterday to calculate race length. I did a 1.35.X with the Cobra in Brianza. Obviously those times should get faster with a propper setup
