[Matthew Weston]

Just crashed into a wall after drifting around a corner, wheel fell off, lol Thanks for the great event Ryan, I will defiantly race in this event again

 

[Magnus Dahlgren]

Was in second place on the last lap, looked at how many laps I've done it said 3(however I thought I was on the third lap, argh I always do that!:facepalm so I pitted thinking I wasnt able to make it on fuel. When I got out I was reminded of 'One Lap To Go' then just some seconds later I get CONNECTION LOST!!!! Words cannot describe how dissapointed in myself I am right now! However thanks for the race and congrats to those who finished it! :love-over:

 

[Lee Knight]

GRRRrrrr.....
Was really look'n forward to this & I wasn't 'allowed' to joint until LONG after event started &
then only to watch but with no details!
Thanks again to Ryan & RD for the event, hoping we dont have to wait to long for another one somewhere.....

 

[Eddie Hallgren]

Also got connection lost in 5th place with only 1 lap to go,,

 

[Mattia Gottardi]

was a nice night!!!! first time with the mod, first time on that "easy" track (i'm ironical )..... had an accident in the first 2 laps and had also some problems with the car damage for the rest of the race, but i'm really happy that i survive and take at home the car in 4th position!!!

 

[Thomas Lee]

I was swamped on the first lap, had a couple of spins and then had a lonely race to the finish with a couple of scary offs but didn't damage the car.

Finished 5th and apparently won the championship, a bit undeserved really though, all i did was enter all the races and get to the end of all but 1 of them (even then i scored points). I wasn't particularly fast in any of them.

P.S. Thanks Ryan, RD and all those who participated.

Thats what these races were all about, keeping it on the road. Consistency always pays off. Well done mate

As for my race, rather uneventful, had a good start, climbed up into second off the line, then Valerio made a mistake in front of me which gave me the lead. After that it was just a case of keeping it on the black stuff and driving to the line

Thanks Ryan & RD, also well done to those who finished, very tough track

 

[Adam Eggbeer]

First of all I would like to congratulate Thomas on his series victory. Very good effort through all of the races and scoring points in all of them. You deserve it.

As for me, well it wasn't to be. Started 5th due to the standings, and made a great start, jumping Daniel on the line. Followed the leader through the opening corners and I could see a big gap opening up behind. Valerio spun it which allowed me to get past both him and Magnus to take 2nd. A few corners later, I made a mistake and Magnus got back through. Followed Magnus for the rest of the lap, and the whole of the next but couldn't get close enough or when I did, I just couldn't find a way past. Tyres went off on lap 3 and with a 23 second gap back to Toni I thought I could pit and come out within 10 seconds of him with fresh tyres. However the stop was slower than I thought and I was nearly 25 seconds back. Chased him down hard taking 10 seconds out on the first lap and with one lap to go Magnus disappeared so I was back up to third. Toni had issues on the last lap and I caught him up and passed him to take second which is where I finished. Chris was far too quick for me today and fully deserved the win.

Looking back, even the 2 places I lost with a spin on the last lap at Spa would not of been enough to take the title but I'm very happy with my performance and looking forward to racing these cars again as they are so much fun.

Thanks Ryan for this series, thoroughly enjoyed it. Also thanks to RD, and all those I battled with.

 

[Redvaliant]

Thanks Ryan for the series, and all who took part. Did 3 hours of practice and just about learnt the track. Had a clean 1st lap for once and then slid out on a cnr i had never had a problem in before and killed the engine. Good fun though and these cars rock.
