Race Report:
Race 1 Ran in second for a while but couldn't keep up with the aliens. Lost it on turn 2 and then another four passed me. Kept fighting on real bald tyres and managed to finish 5th. Yippee. Not bad for a backmarker.

Race 2. Qualified in 3rd confused and had a reasonable start. Was holding second again until the aliens caught up. Managed 4th this time and I'm happy with that. I am a useless sim racer, so I am as shocked as a shocking thing from the planet shock.

Nice racing all and thanks to Kenny for organising. Congrats to the podium.

 

[Mondyrocks]

Two very decent runs Andy!
You were over a second faster than me in quali

btw @Kenny Paton, what did you say when the next FR2 race was?

 

[Robin]

First race here, but I must say I really like the atmosphere and friendlyness here in the R3E part of RD.

I qualified mid-rear, which was what I expected.
First race had a 'bumpy' corner 1 (pun intended) and after that on the straight I was being body checked, probably a sign to get out of someone's way.

I wish to apologize to the fine chap I sort of divebombed in turn 1 around mid-race. You brake early and I saw a chance to fill the gap, only to realise I was late afterall.
Sorry for the move, it was rash and unneccessary, but I think we both ended without damage and you got the spot back.

Other than that a rather uneventful race and finished in the top 10! yay me!

2nd Race I qualified 5th, but lost many places due to the 'ice skating demo' of two guys right in front in the first part of the race after the S-turn on the hill. It took me into the wall.
Recovered and hooked up with @Kenny Paton , but he surprised me after the S-turn and I couldn't brake in time and nudged him in his behind.
Luckily you were ok and it was only me who slid into the wall because of it. Sorry again!

Had great fun and I hope I can join in again soon. Thanks for organising such a nice event @Kenny Paton !

Mr. @JayS , who did you lose to? (Judging by the standings, sounds like you raced)

 

[Brian Greenwood]

How not to re-enter track...

 

[Robin]

@Brian Greenwood is that me against the wall there?

Sorry Lars

Don't worry about it.
I didn't want to say anything because I figured you were kicking yourself hard enough as is.
It happens, and besides I'm not a huge fan of the WTCCs in the first place, so no great loss.

 

[Kenny Paton]

Gentlemen, a fun evening, thanks to all who took part great to see so many new people on track. Congrats to the guys on the podium and a hearty well done to all who survived the tyre wear till the end of the race.

Still am,it was a stupid mistake.

 

[Lars Hansen]

Still am,it was a stupid mistake.

No need.
We all screw up at some point, I'm living proof of that.
Learn from your mistakes, then let them go. Harping on it isn't going to help.
