EU
SS1. prety much got all the hairpins right, had a scare at the 5th gear left right at the houses, but still 2nd fastest.
SS2. realy like this stage, but kept the speed down as i didnt want a DNF so early in the event, again 2nd fastest but with Roy`s CFH it put a wisker if front overall.
SS3. didnt fancy my chances much here and to make things worse the slightly ropey setup i made wasent there, so had hasterly picked the one i used in the 1st 2 stages. big mistake i should have just run default so lost loads of time driving like a granny lol
SS4. deleted offending setup so was able to select my ropey gravel setup and did much better this time 3rd overall.
SS5. absolutly hated this in practice, totaly unable to find any rythem so just tried to kee p it clean.
SS6. did a bit better here, could push as much as i would like but manged a steady run without to many mistakes.
SS7. my favorite stage of the night and i almost cocked up at the start as i forgot to turn hdbloom off, so a quick fumble with the keys as my co driver was counting down got the blood pumping even more lol, but manged a good drive and was slightly up on Roy in the 1st 2 splits but lost a few secs in final sector.
SS8. last stage of the night and my most tense stage, which showed in my driving and after a few little mistakes came my biggest crash of the night as i rolled it with 2K`s to go, luckly no real damage and was able to rejoin the track without asistance.
very pleased with my driving tonight had hreat fun on the stages and watching other peoples times and it was looking very close at the top between 4 of us till Roy & Dariusz had a bad stage. well done to Mark for the
EU win and cuffed to nits with my 2nd place, i didnt win a stage tongiht so it just shows the importance of keeping it clean and consitant
thanks to Senad and all the drivers cya in the emerald isles next week
