Not a great race from me. Well ITs to be expected as I had no practice for it really due to only coming back the saturday night and being busy most of Sunday before the race. Tho I was able to be on pace in qualy, race I was ok but but not great. I was in quite a few fights but for some reason didnt seem to have any pace down the straight and cars were just easing past me.

Anyway. I didnt finish the race due to damage.

Approching the right hander at the end of the straight I had my car about half way up the inside of another car and so I went for it. But he also moved across to take the apex. We contacted but just pushing and rubbing eachother but it put me right up on the inside kerb. I could see it was turning him round so I slowed down a little bit more than normal but this just meant I got a tap on the back bumper which them put me sideways before recieving a shunt from a third car. THis sent me spinning and sliding across the grass and smacked the wall. IT bent the steering. I continued on for a few laps hoping for another safety car to get it repaired without loosing out too much. But it was hopless, the damage was destroying my front tyres so I called it a day. Better luck at Fern bay I guess.

I enjoyed the racing today had some fantastic fighting. Appologies to I think it was Pavez I turned at T2 L1. I got tagged and clipped you as I was trying to regain control. Got up as high as 7th at one point after the safety car restart after diving between 2 cars.

My best move of the race was on car number 77. I was in a three way fight with 77 and I think 96. 77 first passed me by getting the run down the straight in S3 where you have the run of area on the right. He had a better exit which put him alongside me down the straight and gave him the inside for the left hander where he passed me just before the end of sector 3. The very next lap I was able to set him up and pull the same move on him. I wasnt ahead of him by the time we reached the left hander like he was on me but I was able to outbrake him. THink 96 was just hoping we both collided but were too profesional for that. Tho there was a few times were there was racing rubbing to say, Im still here. but nothing on the intentional crashing level. haha

Then I was loosing out toward the end, the tyres kept getting too hot so I would have to back her down for a lap or so to cool em. But then I lost 12th as I the tyres were just hopeless. With just half a lap to go I was forced to pull of the track and retire at the start of s3 due to NO MORE GO GO JUICE!!!

Quote from JPeace :Why did Diaz cut the corner to get past Runas? Surely he should get a penalty for cutting corner and gaining a place anyway.

I wasnt defending Diaz Cutting the corner, I was Defending the fact someone said Diaz caused the accident which the replay shows he clearly didnt.

From what I see of Diaz clearly corner cutting, I think it was the fact he had the bump from Simon and he was in Runas slipstream and had JAno to his left. HE caught to the back of Runas very quickly and a bump might well have taken all four out so he took to the grass to avoid that. Yes he gained from it and should of let Runas back through after if this is the case.

BTW, Diaz didnt cause that lap one incident R3 were both championship contenders went off. You were four wide. Cattell, Jano, Runas and Diaz.

JAno and Cattell made contact pushing JAno into Runas and Diaz was already half past runas, Runas clipped diaz pitching Diaz into Jano and JAno collected Cattell and you both went off. It was kind of a chain reaction collision.

Sorry but team mates do help eachother out on track, its apart of touring car racing, they will let eachother through especially when there is a championship at stake. AS for SR supposedly helping out I dunno.

MY INCIDENT
The contact against me toward Jano was not intentionally helping Simon. I was as incurouged to do fight for my position regardless of the fact there in a championship battle. I did the same with Simon a lap or two before. In the same place. I moved to protect the inside and Simon dived to go round the outside. He then braver into the corner went round the outside of me to take the position.

From the overhead view You can clearly see I left Jano a little more than a cars width. I braked possibly a bit early i'll admit which contributed to catching Jano off guard HE obviously shot forward as I decelerated clipping me and therefor making the contact but the point is I did leave him enough room. But when I started braking he was not alongside me by any measure but he was on the right side of the track. I didn't steer toward him to the right side of the track cause I knew he was there SOMEWHERE (The onboard view shows I didn't steer toward him before the contact). The contact is what turned my car toward the right which took both cars off onto the grass where Jano was braking on the grass trying to slow down and thats what spun/slide Jano car to a stop. I am not saying its Jano fault by any means, Im just saying our contact had nothing to do with trying to help Simon win. Like I said, a lap or so before I moved to the right to defend from Simon just like I did Jano but Simon went left and the long way round. I did the same with JAno moved to cover the right but JAno was closer to me than Simon was by this point so I left him room incase he went for it.

Guess we will have to see what the admins think of it.

Quote from Eclipsed : Kronpušs.

Wow, totally got it wrong! My bad.

Like I said, i got a bit lose in the kink or the exit of the kink, I know you left room and it was my fault. TBH, looking back at it like I posted before, I wasnt feeling 100% well last night and probably shouldnt of driven, but oh well. Hopefully wont happen again.

Total failure today but wont complain.

Sorry to Kornorass (Sorry im sure i spelt that wrong) Got loose after the kink on the restart after the red flag and you just happened to be there. Was by no means intentional!

With the DT turning to Stop go, completely mis understood that as previously under pace car i got one and it was removed, again my own doing just mis understood how that worked. Was expecting to be sent to the back at the next pace car.

Appolgies to Eoin aswell I think it was him i tangled with just a few laps before i ended my race. The car seemed looser for some reason today and dont know why.

Appologies to all and i'll take whatever penalty is coming.

Quote from CSF :Consult the official replay Scott, you were lagging for 90s at the start of the race, Teemu simply had no idea you were there.

Never mind James Bond and his oil slick tricks. I got cloak mode!!!!!

poor thanks to my pedal box.

I thought it wasnt quite right in pre qualy shootout but i carried on. Wasnt much better in actual qually and then in the races it was dyer. My pedal box is naf and was making me lap slower unable to keep up with cars in the races and after a few laps of race 2 i pulled in the pit to retire from the weekend. Should hopefully have a new wheel for the final race.

BTW, I got into an incident I havent yet reviewed in R1 L1 at T1. I was just about to get going again when the pace car come past me and then proceeded to block me for half a lap instead of moving to one side when I was attempting to pass him and he tried racing me down the straight to the tight hairpin to. Think i dented its back bumper cause he stopped in the middle of tight chicane Sector 2. Resulted in me losing alot of time. Could we give him a 20 grid place drop or something for the next race?
