I will post now, just in case we loose electricity, since half an hour, we have lightning at eatch 5-6 seconds, crazy outside, just like day ligh when it happend.

No practice at all untill i join the server 1 hour before race. Drivers said that wings needed to be at max, so i decide to use Monaco setup as is, and adjust fuel. I know that track by heart, so it was just a mather of hope and setting a good pace, witch i did.

I had a great qualif, 4th (if im right). Sorry for beeing so late to come out, i was hesitating on on 2 stop on soft or 3 on supersoft, i did 3 finaly. I was hoping a great fight at end, Jimmy seem on 4, up to middle race, unless he was going to do a long 30 laps for the end. At middle race, I was 10sec behind Jimmy and 10sec in front of Carrera, i decide to push more and gain a -.5 per laps, but that probably cost me my engine. Im not shure if its that or the contact on my rad from the front wheel of Coy at exit of T1 on L1. Sorry Coy, but on replay, i think its more a race incident. I was folowing my driving line, not seeing you on my side, but you seem to slip at same moment. Let see what your replay tell you. Had a great fight with SteveB. He went wide at a corner and i knew that he would be realy distract and nervous, so i felt that just pushing close would kill him, and later he went wide by mistake that gave me all the space i needed to pass him. Carrera gave me alot of pressure, i think he was on 2 stop also, so i was getting lost on where he was going to end up, but usualy, hes giving up in grass or in a wall :wink:

Cya at next one, i just hope that i will have time to practice.

Well with no practice at all last week I came to this race not expecting too much....lol

My Qualy went better than I thought 5th on the grid....was happy :)

Race start was great but everyone got off the line the same so the approach
to T1 was nerve racking to say the least.

Exiting T1 I was in 3rd and was there for about half of the first stint and had a nice battle with Flow, then I made a mistake and Flow past me and found myself sandwiched between Flow and Carrera.....OMG!!!!!
Exiting T4 (were MASSA went off) I was on the throttle a split second too soon and spun and tagged the guardrail knocking off
my front wing allowing Carrera to pass me amung others.....LOL
I made it back to the pits, fixed my wing but still had front left suspension damage but I really wanted to finish this one.

With about 6 laps to go approaching T1 I saw CARRERA'S car on fire......sad for you buddy you drove a fantastic race. :(

Finished 4th very happy with this result. :) :) :)

CONGRATS to MARIO and to all who finished.....WELL DONE TO ALL!!!

Well, well. My suspension broke. I looked so much forward to this race. Had an ok race and suddenly at the end of lap 23, which was 5 laps before my first pitstop, the rear suspension broke and from doing 21's I was doing 25's. Nothing I could do about it. Tried to figure out why I was lapping slower and the car was more and more undrivable and I believe it was on lap 25 I couldn't steer and went off the track and engine stopped. No smoke but engine stopped.

I am traveling to Europe August 2nd and will be back in town August 16th so I won't make it to the next race. See you at Spa :D .
It's not hard, when you know how......

Well I gave it my best eh?.was a smooth race.Radiator at max and still somehow without damage the engine blew.I was even shifting a 1000 rpm earlier.Can't really slow down honestly or its no point racing right?.Anyway,it sucked and I was really surprised noone saw me roasting weiners at the back of the car.I didn't have marshmallows Flow...LOL...bummer.Well my computer locked up twice before race due to the intense heat outside and inside.Locked up during qualifying and got back in to finish in a good position near the back.The start was good .No contact to speak of.HAd a couple of good battles.Just stayed ahead of STeve B and when I saw flow drop out I said"what the f*** now?".HAd no idea what happened to him.CAr was great to drive but I think with full downforce the engine prolly worked to hard.My downshifts were a little hard as well.The race started and Boons computer locked up almost right away.Go figure.Mine didn't.We were not expecting good results here anyway.COuld not really keep up after a while to the front runners so I settled in and let flow fly on.We gave it our best shot flow.Boon was not too upset.He didn't really get used to the track but still gave it his all for a lap or so.Ah well flow.there is always next race.Last race we had connection problems at the last min in gremany so we got shafted on that one.61 laps out of 70.just not enough again in hungary.next race will be less downforce and hopefully a little easier on the engine.remebre though flow....YOU BLEW UP FIRST....so nyah nyah.
carrera 8) 8) 8)
