I'm lolling at the wall joke, especially as James has his hands over his 'special' area.

Yeah, that's what happened... My tires were way too worn to to anything more, so pitting would have saved me spinning out/understeering off the track, to cause more damage than pitting...I don't mean to be a hardass, but I think it was G.T who gave me the controller after pitting on lap 48 and Sureshot saying something like "You have some catching up to do"
At least I'm impressed with the a 1.21.39(something) I achieved on my last stint!

We were just taking it easy, and conserving our lead. There are no points for fastest lap.
EDIT: And who was the only person that got to practise the car/track combo beforehand?
B-Spec Bob.
And he still got a quicker lap...
(actually, that's true - Pestilence was quicker in the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 in 3 laps than I was. I had to run 8 laps to beat him. By 0.2s)

Excellent write-up, as per usual...!
Indeed, I reckon DustDriver's pitstop strategy was the reason we finished 2nd rather than 4th in the enduro 👍 Remarkably smooth driving in order to get 12 laps out of those tyres!
I also think Race Idiot was unlucky to be ranked so low in the first handicap. A closer look the results tells a different story to the final rankings. RI managed to win more races than anyone (6) yet only finished 8th overall...

Though he did arrive 2 hours late...
Along with spanking my licence times with the G25, I've been recalculating the handicap formats to be more in line with the Classics race and I think they'll be much better (and shorter) in future.

It has to be said that the amount of time and effort you must have put in to working out what cars to use in the handicap races is nothing short of amazing. I also have to say that the prospect of you being even quicker now you've got this new-fangled wheel is decidely worrying...

I've got to start using the wheel too, i'm sure using auto is more of a hinderance than a benefit.
