I may not be able to make it tonight, had to get up at 5 and kinda tired so I may already have fallen asleep come race time. I do hope to make it though!

 

[Redvaliant]

Feeling sleepy? Take the Mercedes. You'll either be totally knife-edge awake, or totally dead. Easy solution...Huzzar!

Scott, I made a promise to my buddy Bas, still recovering from a flu, so might not make it to the end, but will for sure start. So sign me up!

Here's hoping you get a good run and don't want to drop Eric!

Spamming helps Scott !

I'm actually feeling pretty rough today, but I really want to try out this combo, so I'll probably start at the back to avoid causing chaos.

 

[T1MKO]

Hope you can make it Tim!

Scott, only just got in from work so won't make it this week.

 

[Munkyboo]

i enjoyed the combo
sorry for the bad crash in lap 3 or so. Looking at replay i think it was just a racing incident with the few cars in front getting tangled up for a while. I was focusing on getting a good exit to overtake them on the straight. So by the time i was well on the power, didnt see how the cars in front were actually still slowing down behind the first car that was trying to regain traction.
With better awareness i think i would have just gone all the way down the inside though to avoid it

 

[Eric S]

Thank you for organising! Though race but at least another 60 minutes of race experience!

Well that was a fun race. I had a bad start off the line and dropped to 4th, but there was space into T1, so I just went up the inside of everyone and came out of T2 in 1st. Pulled away pretty quickly somehow, and soon started to work out what fuel saving I needed to do. Had to aim for 6.25L/lap, which was made difficult by the first few laps being on high engine modes and flat out. Eventually I ended up in a good rhythm of lifting and coasting into T1, T8, T11, T13 and T16. @Lizard77 came close, but he soon pitted quite early. @Stefan Hiller caught up as well, but even when I was at crazy fuel saving mode, he couldn't get by and soon pitted at about 33 minutes to go. I had two last laps of real major fuel saving and managed to come in after 16 laps and just after the 30 minute mark. Then it was a case of drive for 15 laps a little bit faster and wait for everyone else to pit and go behind me. After that it was a calm run to the end where I finished 10s in the lead after only 1-stopping the race!

 

[Lizard77]

Thank you very much for the great race. I got away very well with my CLK and made up two places. Unfortunately there were slight touches in the first corner (sorry who I touched) I was able to hold second place until the tenth lap, unfortunately my strategy was designed for 2 stops and I finished fourth.

Hi All, sorry for the tardiness with the results. I had been a bit under the weather....

Thanks everyone for the race. Had really good fun in these cars, but we are going to move on to something a bit more modern next week. I'll probably put the event up tomorrow morning now.
