The Special BMW Z8 "Mallet Trophy" Race At Silverstone - Qualifying & Race Results Added (page 2)

[Zolon32]

I did hear someone say "Let's run another some time" or similar, and I agree, it's a great combo, Z8 and Silverstone.

If we do do it again can I suggest the rule is, we all start on hards and, once your lap count reaches ten the pits are open for you to change to softs or medium any time you like. Some will pit straight away and try to make their new tyres last 16 laps, some will stay out for a couple more on the hards to give their second set a chance, and some will pit immediately and go for a two pit strategy with a second set of softs. The permutations are amazing, but hopefully everyone would start a second race with a good idea of their plan.

Just a thought.

Cheers, Zo.

I reckon you miss your Z8, Mallet.

So I made a small compilation of it's race. Know that I treated her right and drove to the best of my abilities.
Except for those times when I drove past Maggotts and saw this great looking bird. Got distracted then.
She held up a sign on lap 16 and I believe it said something like "Mallet Marry Me".
I guess she wasn't aware I was the one driving your car lol.

I should have thought about a pit stop strategy before hand

Me too. I just went into it happy-go-lucky really.

I managed it though as I realised straight away and went easy on the tyres.

I watched your final lap and you were driving on fumes right around then. I don't think you would have lasted another one.

This depressing moment when you realize that, during the couple of laps of dogfight you had with @SmileyWRX, he was on SH tires and damaged at the rear...

You can keep hold of the car until I'm back if you like. 👍

It looks like you treated it well.

You can have the groupies too, I decided to leave those days behind me when I met Mrs Mallet.
