Cool race last night all, very enjoyable. Seemed to be relatively incident free (from my perspective), although seeing Inspector tied up on the barrier at pit entry made me go "huh ?" before zooming past.

Somehow I had better fuel economy than others last night, prob because I was riding the accelerator gently, trying to keep my tyres in one piece. Which worked as I was able to pick off a couple of people in the last 7 laps or so in a tank of gas. And by stretching my gas, my plan worked in that I had a short distance to go on the last stop, and with fresh tyres, picked up another couple of spots easily.

_b good fun ladies.

Yes spot of good luck for me that was, i had resided to finishing 12th as i was only making little headway into you guys lead and then with you and Unbound getting tangled up i managed to sneak through and pick-up another 2 places :cool:

Overall a very enjoyable race, if my memory is right i dont think i lost a single placing on the track but was constantly losing 2-3 positions in the pits so more work needed on quicker pitstops.

Well I could have done with a few more dings quite frankly. :) After poor old Wide lost it on lap five I dropped all the way back into the mid-late 20's and never managed to make any further headway since I'm steady on that track but not hugely fast. Curse these clean races we've had recently!

:)

Well done TonyG and Bazz...but as for Inspector, jeez, perhaps we should call that race the Inspector Memorial Self Rippage 500.

Unlucky Inspector, better luck next time O_o

Well i just about let everyone overtake me on the track lastnight, but then i always got those places back with my pitstops...lol
but i did manage to find the speed after my last pit which is just as well as i could see jetboy and co coming ;)

Great clean racing all round.

And well done Tony & Simtv :crash: :rockband: :drink: :moped:

Well pretty good track, race sucked with no in game sound.

When I went into the race and going through corner 2 realised I had no in game sound (vent etc fine). That completely screwed with me and as the results showed stuffed my race up.
A long shot but just wondering if there is a way to fix that without exiting the game tried going into options with no success? I wouldn't think so but thought would be worth asking.

Cheers

I thought it was a drawing, I believe that is how we did it earlier in the season.

Yes CarnaGe was given an Excel spreadsheet with all the drivers names to do a random draw. I'll leave it up to him to announce the winner again this time as it is his prize.

Marty, Wraith's name came out on top of the random draw. It had nothing to do with him winning the race.

From last weeks race Inspector is the recipient of the framed V8 Supercar poster. His choice is below:

Thanks again to CarnaGe for sponsoring our racing. Remember if you would like a cool poster like Wraith and I got of all sorts of racing then give CarnaGe a PM or check out the web site.
