Hello Bilbo
Why are you not racing

If you are home you should be racing unless your wife broke your arm.

JK We will miss you.

Just a note:
The Qual order I beleave Carr is ahead of me in points now putting him in 2nd place so I should be 3rd from last to qual right.

Hitman

Flow · Post by **Flow** » 13 Nov 2006, 01:12

No Hitman. i did a little equation and all seem fine.

Spa
77 pts : Hitman
74 pts : Carrera

China
81 pts : +4 pts Hitman
74 pts : +0 pts Carrera

Japan
81 pts : +0 pts Hitman
77 pts : +3 pts Carrera

The 2nd position is still in Hitman hands. Bilbo may confirm this later.

NA top 5 before tonight's race is:

1 Flow Toro Rosso 116
2 Hitman BMW 81
3 Carrera Honda 77
4 Juan Garcia Williams 69
5 Aaron Ferrari 62

I will post complete stats early this week, I was waiting for the official Japan results.

As for my absence for this race, I had notified the other admins earlier this week. It is due to a combination of real-life work and my mother moving back into my house with less than a week's notice, which may still affect the last races for me (as this will most likely force unplanned renovations). As it is, I have not done any training at all for this race so I'm sitting out rather than being dangerous (which it is practicularly easy to be at this track).

Hey Hitman, we have to race australia in NA. Too bad, shit disconnect, shit.

As for my race, i set my race on 3 stop since i was in front. That would alow me to escape faster from Carrera and not be stcuk behind him or trying to push to hard to folow him. I did a goos start and turn in T1 on edge of loosing the car. Was driving fine and... Carrera? oups..... start to felt that was going to be lonely. i still push hard since folowing driver were fast and probably on 2 stop. From my 1st pitstop, i almost felt a sleep. Not cause i was alone in front, but i work saturday 9 to 9 and Sunday 9 to 7 and was like that all past week, i was way tired. I was totaly out of concentration. At least 5 laps before end i had a regain of energy and found all my concentration... but race was ending.

Congratulation to all who finish, according to all DNF, the race was not that easy.

Was a pretty lonely race most of the time for me, but i did have a really fun battle with SteveB-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO for a few laps, i think i made my best move ever on steve at t 1, lol, he had more top speed than me and got by me near the start finish line, but i was able to out brake him into T1, and get back by, i bet he was surprised to see that, hehe, next lap he got me back though, damn ferrari is too fast for me red bull, lol

SteveB · Post by **SteveB** » 13 Nov 2006, 04:34

CONGRATS Flow.

All I can say is "I AM SO SORRY HITMAN"

I was surprised to have qualifyed 3rd.

My start was going great, thought my car was hooked up so I gave it more throttle and I didn't hear that my tires were spinning and I spun and hit HITMAN(OMG I am sorry) I wanted to press the ESC button right there.

I continued and had no damage to my car so I figured Hitman should be ok too, so I pressed on.

I was behind Paul for a couple of laps but couldn't catch him (DAM IT) lol
then spun at T1 loosing a couple of places at that point I had to settle in and press on.

Then I had a few lap battle with STEVE, HOLY CRAP man you are hard to pass here buddy.
I was in the draft comming down front straight and got him at T1 but just out braked myself abit and he got me on the inside HOLY WHAT A PASS, I LOVED IT
That was an AWESOME pass STEVE-OOOOO WELL DONE

I am going to watch that a few times

With the help of a few guys DNF I found myself in 3rd behind Aaron and swapping places due to our pitstops.
Aaron went in for his last pit stop and he was exiting the pits when I was comming to T3, I saw smoke and then saw Aaron hit the guardrail as I passed him then it was a matter of not making a mistake and bring it on home.

2nd race this year FERRARI on the podium together...WOOOO HOOOOO!!
Well Done Aaron

I hope you forgive me Hitman it wasn't done on purpose buddy

GREAT race guys

Well the start was an interesting one. I saw steveb get on the gas a little too hard and the car veered left and into hitman. Then as I was coming up to T1 carrera spun I guess and was coming right towards me. Our cars got entangled a little. Like 2 cars dancing. No damage for me and contined on. I was in 3rd behind Juan. After a few laps I realized I need to try and get around him. I was on a 3 stopper and wasn't pulling away from those behind. He ended up spinning at T1 so then I had clean air with nothing but Flow off in the distance in front of me. I road there for quite a while and spun the car in that bowl type corner. I was pretty surprised cause I never spun the in practice. I lost around 10 seconds to steveb cutting by lead to around 8-9 seconds. Which wasn't going to cut it if I wanted to finish second. After Steve's 2nd pitstop I gained about 4 seconds. I assume because I was pushing harder coming out of pits. Trying to be very consistent I pushed as much as I could and ended up with a 23-24 sec. gap. I knew it was going to be super close coming out of my 3rd stop. I really wanted to get ahead of steve if possible since I didn't think I could pass him. I was watching the time and was almost on the straight when I knew I was going to just barely make it out in front. But I pushed too hard and caught the grass and destroyed my car. I was about as dejected as one could be after that. It was a very depressing 15 laps or so after that thinking what could have been.

But anyway Congrats to my teammate for running a great race. Were doing our best to keep the ferrari's up towards the front.

No Aids Racing
