Re: Post Grand Valley
was some good racing last nite
had a good qual was my first time on the front row with second
i did the first race on controls and had a shocker first lap falling off the track atleast 5 times but then got it together and had a awsome race with benny
after kris made his stop me and benny tryed all we could to hold off kris but no could do he got past but i still ended up second so was all good.
race 2 i went 2 the dark side and went to sprints
i had a good start and was racin hard with kris till he had a moment with some tyres so i was pushing hard to get a good gap
i made my stop at the 15min mark but wen i came out benny had a big gap so i gave it heads to catch up and wen i did he had a woops witch left me 2 cruz home to my first ever tarmac win YAY ME LOL.

Re: Post Grand Valley
Great Photo, It looks like we had so much room but can I assure you it didn't feel that way I Thought we were all going to end up in the wall then.
Three wide into to turn one at the island last week was scary enough but when I went down the inside of dev and realized you went on the out side I just stuck the foot in and prayed

Re: Post Grand Valley
Right race report time from me.
Qualifying wasn't that bad. I think I ended up 7th or something. Can't remember.
Race 1 I got a good start on control tyres and watched a fair few cars run off track at the first corner.
I didn't conserve my tyres at all and when the guys on sprints that fell off the road caught up I thought to hell with it. Let's see how good they really are since I did not have to give away any positions.
So I had a half decent fight with sonofa that nearly ended up in teats for me when he hit the back of my car and put me into a slide going into the final tunnel. That slowed me down alot and let Benny and Spaz catch up. We had a good fight for a while but naturally me being me made a few errors and they climbed all over me.
Had a quiet race for a while on my own and managed to get a few cars in the pits.
I had a decent margin back to Dano at the end of the race and on the last lap I thought they would get one more lap in. I was praying that they wouldn't get one.
Luckily they didn't.
Front lefttyre gave out on my final lap going into turn 3. A loooooooong lap followed as I bought it home.
Race 2 was a restarted affair.
I watched the replay for it and I have decided (as I have gotten into trouble for voicing my opinions before) not to say what I thought.
After the restart I can't remember the race terribly well appart from the wheel giving out in the 16th minute.
I had massive damage from that point (trying too hard) so it didn't really upset me that I didn't finish that race.
Cheers to all you guys for turning up and racing and thanks to TTR for the race. I thoroughly enjoyed it last night.

Re: Post Grand Valley
Wasn't expecting anything good last night. Had no time during the week to sim race anything at all, plus it didn't help that I just downloaded the track and mod 1 hour before the race.
I just need some more time with the new version of the mod...
Race 1 - Was doing well in 3rd until I was making too many mistakes not knowing the track and I then realised my tyres were at 45% with 18 minutes left so I knew the controls wouldn't even last for me! gave up and crashed anyway which didn't help... wd kris on the win
Race 2 - Started 7th or 8th can't remember but what I do remember was me flying passed 4 cars before the start finish line! I chose sprints because I knew I was a no hope with the controls as they wouldn't last for me... got up to P2 and had a good run on Kris going onto the front straight until I touched the curb and it spun me round. Gave up after that had a lot of damage as well.
Need more time with the mod I'm getting oversteer when I want understeer and vice versa. Car tail ends a lot which I had to get used to as well lol Thought I had a good chance in Race 2 to challenge Spaz who eventually won congrats
