Sorry could not make it, overslept from a nap after being busy during the week. Will be racing next week. Congratulations to the person who won tonight.

Sure missed you @racingchamp30
I had a great race time tonight, the only contact was with some dark green, (sorry KG!), car and though it was lite contact for him, it could have really been bad for a novice!
Great fun racing and can't wait for the next one, except for pit stops! at least I didn't run out of fuel completely this time!

Thanks!
Finally figured out the gas thing. Old tires from my cohort (M5) got the best of him and was enough for me to capture second on the final lap. Both of us finished on fumes (perfect calculation there). I backed off on torq and that helped some, but the big difference for me was the pedals and smooth feedback from my new G29. Next week.

it was a shortage of fuel that got me, I managed to finish 3rd ahead of Birdy by slowing way down and coasting through the corners. It was depressing using only 1/2 - 3/4 throttle and letting both of you go past...
next week I will have to add an extra 3 laps of fuel to make sure I finish the race properly.

I am using the tune from my friend andy's tuning garage "hab" in the tuning section of gtp if you want to give that tune a go. His tune for the camaro sure worked well last season. Its not a max performance tune and it is softer and more conservative than most but it makes the car easy to drive and point and inspires confidence that you wont go off so you can push it and be consistent. My lap times were crazy consistent throughout the race which meant that even though i was slow i built enough of a gap for an unscheduled third pit stop and still held 4th. Give it a try birdie.

Exactly. I need a lot more driver tuning than car tuning. And better stragedy by practicing.

Huh? You got my pace figured out and not others?
I was looking left as I let it roll back out of the way and as I said last night, I felt I was out of your way by the time you got to me, had I held the break where I began to roll back would you have had enough space to pass by on the right?, unfortunately I failed to save the replay.
This is the second time regarding "stop and stay" and very hard for me to over-ride the instinctive desire to get out of the way and live to race another day, even though it's a game that instinct is automatic!
I'm not arguing but discussing!

no, no, not that time when you spun going through turn 6 at the start. It wasn't your fault you lost it, I spun staying off of you.

Nobody showed up to practice. Oh well, but if you have never practice in the rain(100% wet track) then you are in for a surprise. If you get caught out on a lap with race mid or hard, you better be looking to pit asap, because the conditions may change to harsh very fast and then braking distance and grip goes to %$#@. LOL

So for tomorrow the weather setting have changed from weather 50%, 50 weather changeability to 50% weather 25 changeability @racingchamp30
Also I won't be there as I am going to another rock concert Prophets of Rage 
I will need someone to take photos of the qualifier results and final results and I will update the scoring when I get home. Without that we will have to re run the race.
Also if someone could save the replays just incase I need to do any stewarding.
