Right now. The ITCC races ran a bit late (Joe jumped a start, then reversed, and smashed the field to pieces) BUT it was INCREDIBLY close and incredibly fun.

I had a hue lead (Around 1 min+) until Cowboys decided to hit Ant while Ant lapped him, I think it was on purpose 
.
The last 9 laps were interesting and like the first 3 I had to watch the guy behind continuely lap after lap abuse the T4 run off, gainin about .5 of second by the sheer amount they ran off.... Imo it was a slightly deperate attempt to hold on to me, I lost a little respect for these 2 guys..
But I managed to still pull away driving the race track cleanly and cruised the last 2 laps with no tyres to a relitively easy win..
Edit: OT but in Pure the run off use I seen was worse than we gave penalties for in WSGTC at Nurb GP/F (10-25 sec pens)
.
Also provisional results are this:
DP
1st Shin
2nd Ant
3rd Cnd
4th Seth
GT
1st PaulMac
2nd Cowboys
3rd Gskilla
4th Tbw
5th Tacom
6th Mel (DC)
7th Damu (DC)
8th Storm (DC/DNS)
Fixed error with DP. (I was doing from memory don't bite me head off )

Am I seeing Tacom?! Seems a bit if peer pressure goes a long way!
I'm quite tired right now, and don't have paper ready to do points, so I'll do them either tomorrow after the race, in the car home Monday or at the latest Tuesday.
So we only had one "incident"? Seems alright....
Anthony sent me a pm, so Seth, if you could too, that'd be great.

Well, before the dc was interesting. I honestly lost track with the amounts of over-runs, and must admit to committing the offence a couple of times. However, some were over the top. Also, there were a few aggressive attempted overtakes. I don't know why I tried to go an extra lap for strategy after my car was hit sideways to kill off some tyre life. However, I got dc'ed so "C'est la vie"

I wanna thank all of my drivers for such a great weekend of racing counldn't ask for anything better than two poles two wins and a 1-2 race I knew I made the right choice when selecting all of you hope to see all of my drivers continue with the luck we have had the past two weeks in a row now.

I'm done with this series unless something changes with Anthony. He disregards everyone else on track. No courtesy whatsoever. I'm not beat for racing against some loser who lags so bad, spins someone then drives off and blames the other guy for bumping him in a chicane where you know it's hard to go two wide. So I'm on the fence. If he stays and nothing happens to him, I'm not racing here. If I hit someone, I at least let them know I was sorry, and try to give them the spot back. I don't drive off like nothing happened. That to me was a real bitch move. Not to mention the corner cutting he was doing every lap.

Funny thing about last night was that I was fine seeing people, and fine connecting until a couple drivers joined after quali that I couldn't see. First lobby I could see everyone, bar antony, but that wasn't too bad. Then three other people joined that I couldn't see so I backed out. When I rejoined, however, insta-D/C pretty much.
tbwhhs
cowboys
tacom
Now, given I have raced with stable connection when tbwhhs and cowboys (who at Monza I could see if you recall) have entered as room, I'm gonna blame tacom for me not being able to get back in. The second time I joined a room, everyone after tacom's name in that lobby I couldn't see on track. This wasn't a case of people coming up with loading bars under their name (though the others mentioned still did) but people looking as if they just hadn't yet joined the track. I knew from ALMS at Laguna that this was bad, since this had the potential to have that enormous invisible train ramming through the field taking people off. So I decided to back out, came back and boom! Within a few minutes of rejoining I was D/C'd from the lobby.

Sorry for the no show guys. I didnt have any time with the car this week. I could have joined, but I probably would have ruined someones race.
I'll try to get some time on today and practice for the next race. The Camaros seem like they are really strong. Good job guys. 👍
I kept my words to myself about the cautions. But Paul brought up my biggest concern. Penalties have to be given out. I dont think anyone has been penalized since the season started. And with all the incidents we've had so far it doesnt make any sense. People are going to just continue with what they were doing.

Well NONE took me seriously here but yesterday I came across this room in the room list for public lobbies.

No, I was on the runoff while Ant passed me inside, he spun the wheels, and hit me and spun.
At least I think that's what happened. I just remember Ant hitting my door, spinning, and going "Cowboy!!!" so I thought I wrecked him.

Theres nothing to argue about, in quali I was a clear second or so pole than anyone. (Cowboy was almost 2 sec off me )
Then everyone that was behind me just ran off anywhere they could to hold on to me, mostly T2 and T4, which I found very, very frustrating and it wasn't like one lap then 5 laps later it was every single lap.. Cowboys did it until atleast lap 4 before I pulled away and made around a minute lead. Then after the caution meantioned above. (Btw Cowboys you do realise it your job if you are off track make sure you rejoin safely! So yes if that is the version of events you are to blame.) Gskilla also ran wide at T4 for 6 laps atleast after we went green after this caution.. (And this isn't a few few feet wide I'm talkin about this is metres wide..)
This being my first impression of the series it's not great if I'm honest, afterall if guys are prepared to run wide/cheat to keep up with a faster driver what else would they be willing to do...

I was still on the runoff when he hit me.
I didn't turn into him. If running wide's not allowed, that's fine to me. I've just done that because nobody has said anything against it.At least there's no runoff at SSR5.
