Drivers on Probation:​

@1996mikey2412 - 6 penalty points. One more warning means a one-round ban.

@Siggers - 6 penalty points. One more warning means a one-round ban.

@rolo912011 - 6 penalty points. One more warning means a one-round ban.

@DirtyNurbKing58 - the stewards were unimpressed with the standard of your driving in Race 3, and therefore you have been placed on probation in the hope that you will calm things down this week.

Skeng needs to outscore Ian by 24 points to win the Drivers' Championship.

canyondrifter holds a net 8-point lead over myself in the Independents' Championship.

A gentle reminder to all drivers on probation (or not), that if you earn enough points to get a one-round ban, it does carry over to your next BTCC round (e.g. Round 1 of Integras). A clean end please. 👍

 

[sibbystiggy]

well done Ian & Street! 👍

 

[Ian_83]

Thank you very much Stig.

Thanks Street for doing your best with a difficult car, I know that it hasn't been easy but without you I couldn't have done it and you've been a great teammate. 👍

 

[canyondrifter]

Well done Ian. Last race... You can do it... All you need is 3 x 3 rd places... Tho I'm sure you will get 3 x 2nd places... It will be cool if I can clinch the indipendants as well..last race is going to be a hard fight I can see... Good luck to all

 

[Mikey24]

Although i'm no where near any titles (yet) i just hope to beat @sibbystiggy to be highest placed Jag

we will see who comes out on top in a best of 3 showdown between the 2 jags
& also if the jags do well at nur.GP/D, we might get close to 200pts as manufacturers

the Jag's are quick round Nürb, i was under a second of canyondrifter, i don't know whether he was going for it or not but i was under a second of him

wow 200pts, Jag were at the bottom before RBR with little points lol

 

[Siggers]

Which corner(s) was I cutting?

 

[sibbystiggy]

Which corner(s) was I cutting?

PM the stewards mate 👍

 

[AudiMan2011]

I could only muster a 38.3 personal best as I've had much less time for running due to work now.

 

[SkengD]

Think i was 38 0

 

[Siggers]

Well anyway guys I can't make it tomorrow so looks like this is the end of the BTCC season for me

I know I haven't always been the cleanest driver but I did the best I could. I would really like to thank @rolo912011 for giving me the opportunity to compete and for creating such a great series. Sadly I won't be returning for the foreseeable future as I am going back to Uni at the end of September.

I wish you all the best of luck in your future racing endeavours 👍

 

[SkengD]

Hope to see you back one day sig

 

[Ian_83]

It was nice to have you on the grid Sig. All the best for uni mate, I hope that it goes well and that we see you on the grid again in the future. 👍

 

[sibbystiggy]

guys, can anyone tell me how to avoid wheel spin off the start line? as it appears I'm 1 of the only people spinning tyres off the line from a standing start, loosing far too much traction and falling behind

What's your LSD setting?

 

[canyondrifter]

Or you can try lengthening 1st gear to use the torque of the engine rather than the high rpms...

 

[CptMadBean]

Sorry Ian, Canyon and Stig my BT cut out

Dam that looked like a good little 4 lap race then too
Well me off for a sleep, see you guys lot on track later

 

[sibbystiggy]

What's your LSD setting?
