My race report:
Qualified 4th with a 1.16.2 which was my quickest lap so quite happy with that, didnt really think I would get close to Rick Astley (FittCP) Max Factor (eppe) and Peltonen (Human?) so 4th was a decent start as I was about a tenth down on third.
Good start, and held onto top 3 for 9/10 laps, top 4 broke away. Pace was hot. I made a minor mistake and lost the slipstream which was hard enough anyway as the Lexus has 30hp more. Sat in third solidly till first stop, came out and had a bit of a fight with Metsapicasso. He gave me just about a cars width down into the left hander after the back straight and I took it, was nice tight racing as usual:tup:
I could tell Chris was on a 1 stopper by this point and he had decent pace, so i had to work hard and I had a bit of a spin luckily he did as well later on so it evened out and I was able to catch and pass him to leave a straightforward 4th after that.
Well done to the winners, the pace in our race was impressive and so was the lack of any mistakes by the top 3.
Will see what Tokyo brings but Im not sure it will be a Z track. Johan and I did a bit of practice tonight. he managed a 1.33.390 and I did a 1.33.546
