This is the last turn, three tires on the other side of the white:

I was on the right trajectory though:

That's clean.

As long as two tires are on either the blacktop or the curb. The white lines don't matter.
 
I know that I qualified, but I think that I might not be able to attend the race, I'm having some problems with my wheel now.
 
suppose i can

10 minutets into the race I got a phone call, usually just ignore those, but the phone kept ringing and same call kept coming in, had to pick up. Have to head over to save someone that had their car breakdown on them and is stranded.

Great timing life!!

Sorry if I drove stupidly in the race when I picked up the call, I should've just pitted. Tim had contact with me by my own fault I think, :(
 
Great race, pitted a bit to early as I thought I'd be able to run a good few laps with no traffic and make a bit of a lead on Brandofo. Came out behind Tim and battled with him which made my tires drop off earlier than I wanted too. Last two laps my tires were literally falling to pieces but managed to set a few low 24s and caught up to Brandofo and was a little too optimistic on the last corner for the last lap and went off into the grass tapping the wall. Fun race though!
 
Well, I can't figure out why but my wheel is no longer down shifting right. It was going from 4th to nothing, 2nd, or 3rd. It happened almost every lap in practice but only 4 times in the race.

Still, had a great battle with skengdigi, I was low on grip after short pitting but he had the edge in T3. It came right down to the line.

After you said you had to go for an emergency I figured the oddball line you took in T1 was due to answering the phone. Was pretty 50/50 though, you came in wide and strange; over-braked and so I went under to not rear end you. We got together and I pushed your rear end around so I waited for you.... for ~20 seconds :ouch:

Glad everything's ok... was worried you had to run out to the hospital or something. :scared:

That was the end of my race; so I switched to a 2-stop and just pushed as hard as I could for hot-laps. Started running really consistent high 21, low 22... had some dicing with Johan and Joshua (sorry for that rear-end job; I was ill prepared for your cold-tires. my bad).

Last 3 races should be good ones. 👍

Weird, I completed the form on the PURE site for the D2 race but we have the D1 points :confused:

not strange at all... D2 is behind D1 and there are exactly 0 D1 driver's on the board.
 
In my car, ready to cross the line for the last time. Another podium finish? Not bad. At least I'm... Wait. Why is the flagman pulling out the checkers in front of me? You mean...

Excuse me a second.



:D

Last time I won was right before my birthday. Today is my dad's birthday. Coincidence? :sly:

What can I say? Spurgy had the edge in speed, but not so much in the actual race. In fact, that allowed Skeng to stay glued to my bumper, while Spurgy continued driving a defensive line into T1. I managed a run at one point, but I overshot the corner, and Spurgy took it back. Another lap, I tried bump drafting him, but I felt that messed him up, so I let him recover. Finally, I got around him on Lap 12, and managed to gap him and Skeng just enough for the pit stop.

The next few laps were tense. Rather than push the car, I chose to be ultra smooth, hoping that Spurgy would use up the rubber trying to close the 2 second gap. He was knocking off hundredths, but just when I thought I was in trouble, I started pulling away, thanks to not abusing the right front. From then on, my biggest worry is for some epic disaster such as a disconnect, a power outage, or screwing the last corner.

How I ended up almost ten seconds ahead, I have no idea. Don't think I even saw a 24 on my second stint.
 
I think your right , I havent watched the replay yet but taking care of that front right tire was probably very important and a difference maker in race pace
 
I think my biggest problem was forgetting to change my oil, had lost 14 bhp by the end so didn't stand a chance of keeping up, was just glad I kept 2nd.
