Point's are up NukinFut's retakes top spot in the championship

Good to see whitmore back this week and Welcome to Jake (Sorry if that is wrong) Hope to see you around TTR a bit more, You raced well.

WD all mostly a clean race WD to everyone in both race's especially the guys on the podium... See you next week at the Goldy

Had a good nights racing.. Thanks to all

Qually wasnt too bad set a reasonable time and was pretty happy..

Race 1 after the restart where I caused some issues.. (Sorry) I had a terrible start was holding my foot on the brake not the clutch fell strait back to the back of the pack and worked on getting back amongst the feild raced pretty clean and stuck to my lines and found myself up on Sublime and we had a good tussle for awhile towards the end I spun and let him through and and on the last lap I think he spun at the last turn which gifted me back the position (Thanks Bro)

Race 2 had a much better start and going into T1 was right up with Nukin it was very close racing through the rest of S1&2 and at the sweeper into the last turn I came together with Gutless, I tried to avoid it but it ended up not so good for the both of us, That set me back and again I had to chase down the pack.. I tried hard for a while but everytime I came within 2-3sec Id spin so I change tactics and got myself close but conserved tires.. had a great battle with pisstank on fresh boots and tried to hold him off but eventually he got me he ran out of fuel a few laps later and with Sublime pitting as well I got gifted a few spots (bad luck pisstank)

all in all very happy with my racing of late and hope I can keep it up.

RACE 1



RACE 2

Started from the back and got a good run in the first few corners and ended up in the top 4 or 5 in the first couple of laps.
I had planned to go the distance without a stop so drove as smoothly as I could to look after the tyres.
At Wanaroo I had great tyre wear so was using the same set up.
Saw Nuckin's tyres were starting to go off so gently pushed a bit harder to get past him for the lead.
Had a lot of tyre left with 10mins to go so I was pretty confident that the tyres were going to last...
Just wasn't sure how fast the guys that had stopped for tyres were going to catch up....
Happy with the win but it should have really been second at best, behind Webber (who kept slowing down and letting people past in the early stages of the race)

Points are close and wonder what it would look like if I hadn't had the 4 DNF's so far....

yea all the way to 8th is a shot of finishing top 3... I know how it feels I had bad run for a couple of rounds until canberra. should be interesting comming into the double points rounds.

Kiwi you definitely deserved that win, I was driving at 100% the entire time, for half the race I was using the H pattern which I'm not as good at (have to practice since driving for a mate in a Gemini enduro)

definitely not letting people past on purpose

then hit the inside of last corner, pushed 100% to catch back up, and had a spin on 2nd last lap

Congrats on win you thoroughly earned it

Yea mate fill us in sounds like fun, Nukin just got himself a Gemmy for racing so I think he would be very jelouse..

Coming up in about 3 weeks actually... At QR.

I heel toe usually and it's a synchro transmission so shouldn't be a worry but gonna be interesting to see how the real track compares to the sim.

Nuckin how much did you pay and where you gonna be racing?

Hey webber , that does sound like a bunch of fun !!! Mine was $2500 , with a heap of spare parts ,it a TX model with a turbo 161 engine , and 5 spd box . I'm going to be using it for hillclimb runs at our local club to start with , but who knows where it could end up lol should be a fun little car when it's ready .. Stay tuned for some pics when it's a bit closer to ready )
Oh and total agree with webber too kiwi , u ran an awesome race I certainly couldn't keep pace at the end ,just decided not to fight in the end and settle for second u must of looked after ur tyres really well . Great race guys . I must say , i too expected to see U back on our bumpers webber lol . Should be a great finish to an awesome series , WD powerslave For putting it together
