In fact let's start with that Jetgirl felleress, 10 bonus points to the first person who takes him out. Her car is not hard to miss, it looks like someone chundered all over it and the driver dresses in drag to race......

Thems fighting words dud boy.....might be time for a Bristol Ding up race though...has been awhile since we had a demo derby race to get all that aggression out

Just a spot of warning for tonights race. It's very difficult to hold the low line through the corner while trying to go as fast as you can, there will be people spinning out while trying to pass drivers by keeping a tight line around the corners.
Best be being careful, she's going to be a difficult one.

As the DUD said, Keep your sh*t together and for the love of Pete (?), Back off if theres a ding up ahead, but dont drop the throttle in the middle of either corner sets or youll be a spinnin.

Also practise your pit stops!!!

If there is no one behind, you can drop into the chute during the turn 4, but with traffic, your best bet is to drop in before turn 3 and drop down to 120MPH.

yus, like the rules say, if you cause someone behind you trouble because you slow on the racing line to enter the pits *me looks at red valiant* then you can get pinged.

Guess I well and truly fucked my chances for saterday tonight. ( Not that I would have got a run anyway) I'm buggered if I know why I got DQ'ed from the game. Ah well I have better luck on the road course anyway

wohoo

Couldn't get a better result after popping the piston last week

A flawless run it was indeed, but where were the other duds ?

Great compeition for the win at the end there with cronik, the last 20 laps were all go

Great racin' - man I should've practised... Many apology's for my spin on the back of the track - I was leaving the pits that lap and the ass bobbled and then snapped out =/ ended up shooting out into traffic =[

Congrats to Baz for a great win - and great going Mattly! 3rd!

Logitech wheels bite the big doodoo.....3rd race the f'n pedals have stuffed up for me

RIPPED :/

Yes good win bazz you sack, very good battle just a pity you ripped the lead back off me.

Nice 3rd Mattly and apologies to Big Al I think it was who I collided with towards the end.

A race that started bad and got worse....

Skuzz spun right infront of me in the first turn, I jinked high right into the path of Redvaliant (i think). 30 seconds down by the end of lap 1.

Got up to about 20th then ripped myself with a stop go penalty.

At least I didnt pop the mill like Happy, maybe he should stop using his honda f1 engine.

sorry for all I took out, my lines are very different, and cold tyres...

I just did some very stupid things

Eagle32 · Post by **Eagle32** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 11:03 pm

Good race. One bad choice about which way to go round a ding (yes I slowed a lot

) the whole race and still 30s behind the 2 lead cars. Damn good run guys, congrats Bazz

Overall it appeared VERY clean given the large field and a trickey track given how easy it is to spin yourself.

sorry to Mattly and Typhoon for the little dings. Cold tires did not help. and the pressure was not helpfull at all.

That was the most stressfull start ever!!!

TonyG · Post by **TonyG** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 11:07 pm

It was looking promising for most of the race, then a stupid spin put me from 4th to 9th, almost had you at the end Biteme

Sorry Jay, Turn 3? snake came onto the track slowly as I went underneath you and I had to go higher, worn tires didn't help

RedValiant · Post by **RedValiant** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 11:12 pm

Yes Wood, I hit u as u slowed and jinked on the opening lap. One of those things I reckon. Typhoon, no foul when we contacted - I spun, we both wanted the same bit of road. Could not get a rhythm at this track at all: good on new tyres - hopeless on worn ones. It is a totally different track if you even begin to understeer...it's never the same again. Onward to next week.

Sorry Red, I saw it as being completely MY fault. I started to get understeer and didn't back off fast enough. I am more than happy to give up 25 points if you want to protest. Hell, I feel like protesting against myself.

Apologies to Team MLC, typhoon dive bombed me into 3 and forced me high, snake followed and i simply ran out grip and slid into snake.

Dunno what happened to snake when he hit the grass, winner out of that was mikey as i was setting him for a pass the next lap.

Nothing wrong

you must have been coming back on track from a spin or pits or something and it just ended up three wide, that's all, Jay unfortunately got bumped by me

hmmm looking at the replay, i didnt get loose after all, i didnt straighten the wheel for some reason coming out of the corner, think i was looking at the f2 screen at the time.

Penelty for me please

Was someone driving for Mattly last night?

Most unlike a wheelie bin to be on the podium
