I don't think I'm going to make the first race. The washing machine has started making a strange noise. I think it may be possessed!

I'm going to have to take a look at it. I may have to perform an exorcism!

Sorry I could not race earlier, also don't think I can make the second race either, can i please just submit my practice lap i did on Tuesday?

 

[JockeP22]

No worries, Rob mate.
You won't get a monster key but I'll come up with something else to award you for that epic lap. 👍

Good race guys, your marketing drive must have gone well judging by the amount of spectators I saw camping next to the track! 👍

 

[JockeP22]

Sorry for the confusion between us on lap 1, @gkgamer
I knew you were faster than me so my intention was to let you through.

Not had a good day today

A bad day indeed. Sad news.

Chin up! Has they say - things can hopefully only get better.



Just think on a good day, you'd have lapped us all.

 

[JockeP22]

Yes, I join If in the condolences.
Very sad. You're in my thoughts.

You made a nice tribute to your Ayrton.

 

[JockeP22]

Results will be up tomorrow (Sunday).

Race 2 was even more exciting for me than the first. I don't think I've ever been so terrified in my life.

Race 1
I really wasn't supposed to make it to the circuit on time but thanks to @JockeP22 somewhat surreptitiously sneaking my name onto the grid I cut short a previous engagement & came in unprepared. Driver error (spinning out) led me to park up & let the traffic go past at the half way mark of lap 1. This allowed me to pursue my main goal of driving for the entire race without crashing into everybody, they were all specks in the foreground by then.

Race 2
Again it was a surprise to be racing. I turned up several hours late to an unrelated hootenany after quickly deciding to race before I partied the night at least partially away. I stopped of at Brands to have a word with Team Bridge's chief mechanic. I explained that in the first race I had felt uncomfortable being with such a scary, scary car & could he tame it for me. A resounding "no" came the reply along with the sagest of advice, "just drive better".
On receipt of a substantial bribe, our mechanic pretended to alter the LSD & rear toe while contemplating the ballast vs power debate. I was in a hurry & left him a thoroughly undeserved tip just to shut him up.
Onto the race.. Care free, I pushed a bit harder this time. It turned out that after getting used to the goulish Z8 a touch more I had worked out how to handle it slightly better. Then came the horror, I got further & further into the race without being in last place. I finally had something to lose & as such, became very conservative. One by one, a powerful stream of Z8's flew by me while I hung on for dear life.

I made it to the end twice, I feel accomplished to have done that without causing any wreckage.

I hope everybody enjoyed the races as much as I did. 👍

 

[SmileyWRX]

Great event Jocke, enjoyed so much.

Both races were scary, but great fun.

Night view is so different to drive. Magic clouds 👍

I was looking beautiful scenery, people and trailers near the track, fire, light effects (nice time selection Jocke) all the time, so i crashed few times.

So nice to hear what you think, Smiley. Thanks a lot and it was worth the effort when you seemed to enjoy yourself.
I did too. Incredible atmosphere, really.

But don't forget about @MannYhAvitZ
This event wouldn't have been the same without Manny.

Special award to @thehobnob97 for his practice lap.

Orange paint jobs will improve a car by over a minute.

Yep, it's in my dictionary too. 👍

Would have been highly interesting to see Dusty and Pitorsk in the same race o_O

That must be where I'm going wrong then.

You wouldn't have seen them for very long.

I thought I saw Manny in the crowd. He was eating a burger.

Let me know if you want the link removed Jocke and I will remove it.

 

[JockeP22]

Don't be silly, Rob. Of course the link can stay, the more people that are warned about Wurz the better.
I was referring to your ice bucket challenge though :-)

To close the thread Here's a few shots from the second race.

 

[JockeP22]

Aww man, thank you Paul. They are beautiful!
I can't decide which one I like the most. 👍


That last one though makes me think of a lonesome cowboy riding into the sunset;
