** ATTENTION! (for those who are vaguely interested) **

I have decided to withdraw myself from full time driving duties in the WEC for the remainder of season 3, I've lost all motivation to carry on with it (blame GT6 and their barrage of updates that are forever changing a cars handling) I may be available at some points for a reserve driver role, and may return full time in season 4. Apologies to @redbullrider20 but its better than me carrying on and becoming an even bigger liability, hope you all have fun for the remainder of the season though.

Give me a few to consider my options...
And in case you're wondering, I just starting using a meme generator so I'm playing around with that...
 
My apologies to all the room 2 racers for not being there yesterday. Apologies to everyone expecting me, and to @adam46 who raced for HDR on Saturday. An emergency errand came up early in the morning, and I found myself still an hour away from home at race time.
 
I will need a substitute to drive for me for the Spa race on the 17th of August. GTE Class, driving a McLaren F1. I'll be on vacation.

Thank you.
 
Sorry about he delay, had a hectic week so far and doesn't look like I will get the chance to sit down till Saturday, so results should be up on Sunday
 
Madrid is an awesome track and will be a unique challenge. A1 ring is the correct type of tack for the cars. Bathurst is awesome but not the right track for the cars
 
I wonder how the LMPs would drive there.
Fine, just raise ride height a little. No dramas at all.

Efectively, its no different to Eau Rouge at Spa, The Corkscrew at Laguna Seca or Paddock Hill Bend at Brands Hatch, but the rest of the lap is better than those. It combines open race track and street sections. Elevation changes, slow, medium and high speed corners. Plenty of chances to overtake and plenty of places to defend. Its a tricky circuit to get right, but boy when you do, does it give you a rush!

Sorry for the delay with these results, It was a bit of a disaster with all the officials either not racing or disconnecting during the race.

Race 1

Lap 14 - TNR_Preffer - Pit line [Pit exit]
Verdict: 30 secs

Lap 27 - TNR_Preffer - Pit line [Pit exit]

Lap 60 - Lil_buddy - TNR_Preffer - Racing Incident
Verdict: NFA
Although this incident seems rather suspect and some immaturity while racing, due to not being able to get this incident double checked and confirmed I can only call it as a racing incident. In the future please be careful when returning to the track and when trying to overtake a slow moving car.

Race 2

Lap 10 - Zovomirvanbasten - TNR_FILO - Racing incident

Everyone lights up the tyres at some point on the exit of the loop, TNR_Filo was no different and unfortunately collected Zovo in the spin.

Verdict: 30 secs

Lap 18 - GTPCaine - Redbullrider20 - racing incident
Verdict: NFA
Wet weather spin causes a collection between the 2 drivers.
Lap 46 - Zovomirvanbasten - XnfsfreakX - Racing Incident
Verdict: NFA
Wet weather at play causing a spin for zovo which collected freak who had no where else to go.

Lap 75 - FRT_Legacy - GlexAlz81 - Racing Incident
Verdict: NFA
Clipped the grass, spun and collected Glenalz, nothing to be done and no where to go.

House Keeping

1. There were a few pit line penalties this round, I have said a good few times now to read through the rules and make sure you understand them

2. With the retirement of Chozza, I am happy to announce @redbullrider20 and @MC CAULEY will be forming up for the rest of the season, no doubt a strong team there. Still waiting on confirmation of which car they will be taking

3. If you are signing up for races, please make sure you turn up on time.

4. @TNR_KING_FILO and @FreakFromADR a lot of people are very very unhappy with you both entering a lobby during a race. It has been said before and will not be said again, DO NOT enter a lobby while a race is underway, it is highly disrespectful to your fellow drivers and is not excepted in CORE lobbies.

5. @pyrates, @SkengD and @Litchi first of all Welcome to the CORE WEC. Please make sure that you guys send me a FR on PSN so that we do not have any complications for your first race. Also pyrates and skengd could you guys please let me know of a tame name so that i can add it to the OP ;)

6. As per the rules it does state that you MUST have all tyres for the race, this does include wet weather tyres as WEC will be trying to follow local weather as much as possible from now on. @TNR_KING_FILO Im guessing you have learned that the hard way lol, please have them ready for SPA

and finally, well done to everyone well done for the first wet weather race, it was as clean as it could have been in those conditions and there was such a high level of skill and driving standards, Please continue this for the rest of the season and I think we will see a great 2nd half.
