PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE DOWNLOADED EVERYTHING IN THE 'SUNDAY DOWNLOADS' DROPBOX ON THE LEFT

PLEASE ALSO NOTE:
Following this weekends round we have a two week break due to the long weekend & the Bathurst 1000 the following weekend, traditionally turnouts have been poor on these nights, so we are using these as a mid-season break

The Championship will re-convene on October 20, with Rd 9 at Spa-Francorchamps in a 2hr race (with the time set to x12 to simulate 24hrs)

Just a quick note for the Kiwi's - Daylight Savings starts this weekend so qual starts at 10:30pm for this round...

For some reason I don't have the circuit in my RF lite? Where can I download it from?

Thanks Corty

The Merc 190s from the DTM86 and Bathurst86 carsets have been approved for use as per the poll results, effective immediately

what a tough race, hadnt done any prior setup work as i was out of town for uni then fishing all weekend, didnt think i was going to be home in time for the race.
good racing and sorry to cd for tapping him around at the last chicane, had it all locked up and tried avoiding everyone. we did well to get the gap back but i used to much tyres with a taily setup.

a few points gathered so not a huge loss.

I was driving home from the IPRA Nationals at Morgan Park while you guys were racing.

Sounds like it was a great weekend Patto! How are the vocal cords???

You missed DV8 in the upgraded Merc give everyone an absolute towelling, won the feature 45 min race by about 20 seconds!

we'll come back at spa cd!

Good to finally break through for a TCL win. Had some great battles in both races with Webber, Racer and Billy.

Webber pulled out a couple of very quick laps to beat me in race 1. But in race 2 I used the Merc's advantage to consistently run at a good pace and ended up with a comfortable win. Although it would have been a bit closer if Webber had of done his maths correctly.

We've got some work to do mate, might need to take a look at your Osterrichring setup again I reckon, might work well at Spa....
