I should be OK on this combo (according to Aquilfer) as I practice on this everyday :D

How unusual. A side spoiler :g:

Spoiler is only used for drifting sessions, normally no downforce is needed.
0-60 in about 3 hours because the *******s have fitted a 90kmph limiter. Before it was fitted I had 90mph on a trip to Leicester to have a new spoiler fitted. (they call them awnings). Viva Iveco.

Huh, what have I said? :blink:
I'm pretty sure I haven't commented this one in any way :g:

Apologies, it was someone else who shall remain nameless (until his trial).:doh:
Someone spoke of handling like a double-decker bus :blink:
I can asure you , that having driven the vehicle for 5 years I have only collided with two things. The first was a church(mirrors and vid cam are crap) and the second was a No Parking sign. Stupid place to put it. Once again my apologies.

Oh that one...guilty as charged :rolleyes:
I simply ment that the car feels very top heavy and and it is easy to turn over
1) I didn't comment the
combo in any way. Actually both the car and track feel nice.
1) Probably it is not true, but more likely a result of increased grip from slicks (car doesn't slide but grips and rather turn the car over if going sideways) and hard race suspension which doesn't like going over curbs.
Here you are
Cheers Romus. :thumb:
The first 6 laps were good racing with Jouman, even I couldn't get into position trying to overtake. Then I did couple of not so good laps and he managed to make some gap. At around 20 min mark my mouse hand fingers started to cramp. This felt bad for the next 20 mins at least. But because human is a stupid animal he continues even he is in agony.
Pitted at lap 26 (iirc). The race stats tell my pit stop was 4.3 secs. That's not the whole story - I missed the pit box 2 times :doh: If that wasn't enough I managed to burn my clucth when I left the pit (another doh) :doh: So I had to cool my clutch for the next couple of laps.
Even I had those troubles I have to confess even without them it would have been really hard to beat Jouman tonight. He didn't even seem to make mistakes. So I have to be happy with the 2nd place.
Congrats to Jouman for the win and others for finishing. :)
Really enjoyed tonights race its hard work doing an hour but Its all good. finished with a PB :)
thanks for the race. So whats next combo (keeps skin files out).
A fairly uneventful race for me. I was delighted with the start though. It was a pleasure to see all cars make it without incident round T1,2,3,4 etc.
Nice little tussle with Ben for a few laps until I ripped out his soul by leaving him in my dust. (do you think that's a bit harsh?) Finally an amusing incident with Aquilifer. He came up behind me to lap me and I indicated left. He passed me and promptly put it in the boondocks! Next lap he caught me up at the same place, so I indicated right this time to see if he had any better luck. He did. Well, it made ME smile. :D
One more lap..... (http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/1089841_b9lut/Racedata.xls)
sorry I missed it. my house is in the middle of a sickness bug.

Um, could someone translate it for me please?
Threw it at the scenery, went off the island, stuck it on the grass, did an Oldie, went chasing badgers, deviated from the intended direction of travel.

It made me smile too bit at the 2nd attempt :) I didn't want to return back to the normal path too early because I might had hit you or messed your driving. So I ended into the corner at the inside line and even I tryed to brake more into it, it was too fast for that line :doh:
Quote from: BigFatCat;225900went chasing badgers
Hoy, they were rabbits! :sideways: ...:)
well done to aquilifer and deetz:)
i myself had a good race, started well and made up a couple of place by overtakin miles and deetz :D thou mainly due to my low fuel and to deetz's set choice :doh:
i then slowly started to find my feet (ah on the pedals) and edged away from the chasing pack.
aquilifer was way too fast to catch :worship: so was happy plod along and see what panned out !
then after a very slick stop by my highly tune pit crew, i started out on the home run. 3 or so laps in i was caught of guard by miles comming out of the pits infront of me? did he know a sort cut ? er NO ! he had just had, what we now like to call "putting it in the boondocks" ! and was now trailing the pack. decided not to do anything silly, hold tight and wait for the right moment. followed him for the next lap and as we crossed the line he had a little detour , ah my chance !! er no !! miss judged, him !, me!, and the kirb ! and ended up swerving several times before i could finally bin it into the wall:doh:
at the time i was....... :taz: slighty annoyed but since watching again i can say that it was just a racing incident and these things happen:sideways:
oh and bigfatcat and oldblokes run in was most enjoyable and worth every penny of the entrance fee !! :norty:

My hat's off to you sir, for being big enough to admit that.:thumbsup2: I watched the replay and came to the same conclusion. :)
Another enjoyable race.Fairly unaventful but still great fun.:rolleyes:
Same for me really. Was a good race though. :D
Nice race. Thanks to Oldie for kicking me when I was about to totally losing my consentration.
