Good combo there, my usual off track visits did not cause significant damage to the "car" and I was able to keep from being lapped for a good while :)
Congrats to the podium runners and unlucky Venca, and special thanks to Sean for the 2 splendid passes on me (got the position back in the pits) - nothing I could do there (although I tried, promise), well done!

Watch your tyres for the next combo...

Congrats Kev :yahoo:

That must have been after he drove onto the middle of the track without looking after having an off and punting me into the barriers which bounced me into orbit and breaking my suspension when I landed ending my race.

Yeah but think what might have happened if he hadn't been paying attention :flirty:

Unlucky, mate.

This was a bit of a disappointment for me. I had expected this race to be filled to the brim with close racing and exciting battles. None of that for me, though...

I hopped in to do 2 quali laps just before quali ended; I qualified 21st. I remember thinking "Wow, if I qualified 21st, just how many people are on the server??". Turns out there were 21 people on the server :sideways:  Granted, those 2 quali laps weren't my best but I honestly thought to be placed somewhere midfield at least. I felt I was pretty competitive through the week; had some very close races with Lameduck and Deetz, both of whom were near the front of the pack the whole race.

"No worries," I thought, "all the more fighting for me while I move up through the grid :boxing:" Wrong. I moved up one or two places in the first lap due to the inevitable mishaps, but found myself struggling to keep up with Joe Spoong after that. He even started pulling away from me ever so slowly after a few laps.

I finished 10th in the end but how I got there I don't know. I'm sure it's because of people disconnecting, roofing it, doing their engine in, having their steering wheels fall of the desk etc etc... :g:

Oh well, I got 1 point at least :)

And I enjoyed Ron playing the role of race commentator :D It gave me an idea of what was happening in the front of the pack, and he did it with enthusiasm. It certainly made the race a bit more interesting for me. I remember thinking "he should be doing this every thursday, if he's not racing" :)

It would pall very quickly, I can promise you that 100%:lmfao:

I was really quite comfortable with this combo, and during the week was mostly able to keep up with Lameduck, so it might just be that on this combo I wasn't as slow as you would normally expect me to be - normal service will be resumed ASAP.

Of course, it might just be that I'm finally getting to pick up some pace, but I wouldn't bank on it...  I think you passed me when we started to get blue flagged, seem to remember you followed someone through. :)

Lameduck

:roflmao: Set your sights a little higher.

Good race Kev and well done to all finishers.
Had my usual race, quite good until concentration lapsed and I changed down to 1st instead of 2nd. I have now been given honarary membership of The LFS Tossers Society. (fully paid up life membership) :sad:


spoong

Being able to keep up with anyone on dMr seemed out of my reach until recently matey. :)
