As I said earler, I really, REALLY enjoyed this race, for me, long races is where it's at, you get into this zen type state of mind where nothing matters but the person infront, the person behind, the next corner, and how much gas is in the tank, and to me, thats awesome.
Qual went well, managed to qual 10th, which was ok, about normal for me, start was TERRIBLE, I forgot to put the damn car in gear, and just sat there after the lights went green, woops, sorry to those behind me.
That put me in almost dead last, but with endurance racing, its not that important.
My plan was not to stop at all, tyres were fine, infact, after 35 laps they were getting grippier and grippier, unfortunately I was about 1-2% fuel short for the race, so I was forced to stop for fuel, but damn LFS decided, even though I had tyre change > 90%, that my right rear, yes, the RIGHT, needed changing, so the last few laps were done with one rear cold tyre, very odd.
Luckily, I was far enough infront of spanky that he couldn't pass as I exited the pits, so I managed to keep 8th, which I am pleased about.
Highlights, racing Bean0, seems to be quite common this season, some TOP DRAWER racing from you sir, very enjoyable, watching DaveWS powerslide his way round most of the track, he had some serious tyre issues by the looks of things and racing with Gav, sorry for the little tap
.
It seems a few people had tyre issues, which was strange considering some of us were looking at race distance with one set..........
Anyway, top notch race, really good, roll on next week, as it's only a week break this time round because of Valentines day
.
Results and guff will be up ASAP, when I get 5 mins to do them.
Cheers all, top notch stuff once again
