had a nice race yesterday !!, and some nice slose fights with Cramer. He was a little bit faster then me. but he made more errors and so he stayed close. halfway the race A3rox came online, so as admin to watch the race I had to welcome him and ask him to join. Witch he did not. So I went to the pits again dumped 50% of fuel and rejoined to get more practice. But the fights were over. I had a "to close" contact with J on the first lap and he went of. Was dead last with I guess 20 seconds on the leader... But he did not give up and won the race !!!! NICE ONE !!! GRATZ !!! ( sorry for the contact) The guy to win this race, Sennaboy, went of... He says he had to brake at T1 for someone losing it, and lost it... Car destroyed .. gave up.. And so you see you never know what can happen during the race. Being fast is one thing but having some luck is also involved Next combo is long.. very long.. And difficult to pass !!! So PLEASE practice a lot during this week. A minimum of 20 laps still counts to keep your qualif position. but I like this combo a lot. It is fast, but difficult under braking, passing also difficult. For me it will be difficult to make it next week, but I will try.

A minimum of 20 laps still counts to keep your qualif position. but I like this combo a lot. It is fast, but difficult under braking, passing also difficult. For me it will be difficult to make it next week, but I will try. I practiced a lot with Krister and sometimes UK4i... We where all very prepared for this race. I don´t understand why we didn´t see others on the track for training. Where are ýou? We could have so much good and important short race experience..instead we see some predictable and avoidable accidents during the race But to the race..i knew my best time could be something like 0.48.25 without draft, but me and krister made our set, so it would be drivable during the race. Anyway, when i started the race I followed Sennaboy 1,5 sec behind him, which was ideal, because i knew Sennaboy would be faster, but maybe make mistakes during the race. So if I just could keep that distance from him witout getting into any fights the race would end good. I made in some of the first laps some mistakes, so uk4 came up to me and we started changing positions several times. It costed us time, so Liveforspeed.hz came much closer. Then i made a small mistake again and suddenly i was fighting with Liveforspeed.hz. Again it was only making us loosing time to the front runners, but it is so difficult to find out how to come out of that fight because of the slipstreaming. I would rather just race alone in this car. Too risky too to be fighting with each other. Suddenly Liveforspeed.hz made one of his few mistakes and fell back and i had more space. I drove a long time in 3rd spot until i saw sennaboy sideways and i passed him. Now i was in 2nd position. Sennaboy chose to leave the server thereafter. Now the only problem was to hope for problems for uk4. He did later in pit (drive through), but i had a disconnect before that, so i never found out if i could have lasted to the end..annoying. But i can only blame my internet provider, they were a little unstable that day. Normally they are not, but maybe they have read in a newspaper that we would have a race and din´t like me to get to the podium. Or who paid them to do so? ;D Grats to the youitch for winning the race. he was there at the right palce and on the right moment..and consistant. Well done! Krister, my teammate i will also say, he has improved a lot in the week we have had and could have went to the podium with a bit more luck and experience,. his race was mostly affected by one mistake, where he hit the wall very hard and had to pit. It costed him to much time in damage repair, but anyway he ended in the middle of the pack. Wonder how he will be when he gets the wheel. ps. Hanziboy..don´t leave the server because new people join...it is just a waste of good competition in the race. we are not too many drivers already. so loosing one more is a pity. I think it will be much better to put a password on the server, and let people join if they already have a password. If they haven´t it is their problem. If the purpose is to atract new people, then come and race earlier on the server and also race during the week. It will work much better.

yes, too bad about HZ stoping the fight, aerox is one of our former runner, I just sent him a message to invite him but I guess he wasn't interested in this combo.
I had one of my crappy night but extra work and a week end at the motogp race with 4 hours of sleep in 3 days didn't really leave me in racing conditions...
maybe there is an award for the bigger number of 360° ? I hope I did not interfere too much with other people's race.
all in all I ended up in a surprisingly good position, not too sure, something like 5th overall.
I should have more time to practice the next weeks.
