You know what? I hope terrorists like crash a plane or two onto the track and bombs everyone except a blue-chrome NSX away. Then the alien, immortal, can use his takatagun to shoot them terrorists while gphacker can send in his attack dogs, y'aw mean? Then that blue NSX can slowly creep to the finish and take the podium for once! Yay!

Ridiculous start,at the first chicane Immortal ran me wide into the grass as I was by his side then when he crashed and re-joined he turned right in front of me.
Was constantly avoiding others accidents,smoke flying everywhere and cars sideways.
After that a Nismo Z rammed me into Garage and the table holding my wheel broke,shaking like mad and had to keep re-adjusting it during the race.
It all went downhill from there,when I got up to a white Lexus it was swerving around on the straights and eased me in to the grass then quit when I passed em.
I will have none of that,whoever does it again I WILL shut you down.

First three laps were nuts. I got shunted by the white lexus into soopa sending him flying through the chicane. There was a crash at nearly every corner ...
Lmao at Gprilli at the start, how did that happen

Yeah that did suck, unfortunately nothing any of us could do about it, I would've felt bad continuing without SkengD so I had to call the restart. You, gprili and I all started further back than we should've, but you definitely got the rough end of the stick there, I don't think it will affect your championship chances though 
I feel good about the win, it definitely came out of nowhere as I hadn't touched my car since last week, I just tweaked the gears to give a little more top end in draft and slightly increased camber... The car ran like a dream and tyre wear was great, it was a little loose towards the end of the stints, but a one stop is pretty amazing for me. I could tell IMMORTAL's tyres were in a bad state as I was being held up by him
, I thought he was on a 2 stop and expected him to pit on lap 22 which would've helped me stay ahead of gprili, as it was I ended up battling with him which was great fun but allowed gprili to gain on us when we had a coming together out of chicane 1. After gprili spun towards the end of the race we kept trading places but near the end he stayed behind and I could tell he was strategising to take me on the final home stretch, I prayed for a mistake from him on bald tyres and it came on the last lap, I was just out of reach for him to draft me after the mistake and then a few corners later I saw him drop right back which was when he'd run out of fuel. Hard luck there IMMORTAL, it was fun duelling with you, but I guess luck was on my side yet again at Monza

Sorry about that disconnection everyone , thanks though for restarting 
In the future if we do this perhaps we can do a formation lap to sort out the correct grid spots .
Lap 1 was a disaster , in my head I assumed we were doing a formation lap so I slowed down and then realized we weren't by then it was too late and I got punted into the dirt , was a fun race just had bad luck while racing immortal we went 2 wide in a chicane and I ended up in the dirt again .
Well it has been a good season , great learning experience for me , I've learned from all the races even the bad ones .
I'm glad I didn't try the same strategy as Immortal which was my initial plan after going into the dirt while racing him , I pitted early and it worked I managed to catch up with him after his pit stop . Just couldn't run 25 laps on the soft tire , had to stop again . Its a good thing I did or else I would have run out of fuel as well and come dead last instead of 6th.
Apologies to Garage , I caught him when he made his pit stop and held him up pretty bad , my tires were so old and it was a challenge just to race with him for those few laps , we ended up slowing each other down pretty bad 1 46's - 1 48's i think. Im sure he was dying to shake me off.
3rd place in the season isn't a bad result , I'm sure I will be tougher to beat next season

Enjoyed the race although I agree that we should do a formation lap and then just go to our grid spots we spent 20 minutes qualifying for, the race outcome would certainly have been different.
The race was looking like it would be another disaster for me when I somehow span at the last corner on lap 6, losing out to IMMORTAL and SkengD. After that I put in a solid 15 laps passing Allascato and catching back up to Garage and SkengD. I got round them both but cracked under the pressure and slammed into the 100m brake sign at the second chicane.
I got really lucky then as Garage spun out at the first chicane and then IMMORTAL running out of fuel on the last corner, couldn't beleive it as I got through for a podium, great race. 👍
Nurburgring will be great, hope it doesn't rain though, I'm screwed if it does it's hard enough in the dry.
Any idea if you will make highlights again Soopa, I watched some of the season 1 highlights before I joined and they were great.

Have to agree with this. Great league and I've learnt loads, particularly about tuning so thanks to those who helped.

I'd love to but my DVD recorder packed up, with christmas coming up I couldn't really afford to buy a new one, when I get a recorder in the new year I will but I have to save up for an HD-PVR 👍
It was voted against weather last season, so I wasn't going to again this time, I could put a poll up to re-vote if you want?
