[Daiman Patel]

Just leaving the Lake District now... If I get a shufty on I should be able to make it!

I'll put you down as a "maybe", but hopefully you'll make it home in time!

Feel like im doing the hokey cokey here, Just realised times were GMT not BST, which means race 1 starts when quali starts in my other series. So looks like I cant make it after all sorry for keep changing my mind!

Yeah, shouldn't have raced tonight.

I wasn't the original spinner in race 1, but I certainly added to the mess at the start by first messing up my launch and then completely underestimating the cold tyres and understeering into @Luka Berk in the first corner while the car pinball was happening, making the situation so much worse.

And as for race 2, even though looking at the replay, it seems I wasn't the car that "steamed through the crash and clipped one of the cars" someone mentioned on TS, but given the disaster of race 1, I assumed it was me and I just wasn't aware of clipping someone (because I certainly managed to more or less steam through the crash this time), and with that dumb rejoin in the chicane that resulted in @Denis Betty hitting me (which was completely my fault and I apologize for that), that really was the last straw.

So, yeah, for what it's worth, I'm sorry.

 

[Piotr Dul]

Great driving @Steve Le Gallez, congrats That last lap of Race 2 was so exciting to watch

 

[Balazs Flossmann]

See You next week at Okayama (bigger beasts but easier to drive )! Ahhh btw...Really love the track loading screen!

I eventually failed to wake up at 3am sorry

 

[Jonatan Åcerclinth]

Sorry for missing the event

Got sent away to referee a game of Floorball/Unihockey. A game that ended at 6-6 so it was a good bit of fun as well but sorry for missing this. I expect it was a lot of fun.

 

[Daiman Patel]

G'day folks! I would like to start by admitting that this event was not quite what I expected it to be - truth be told, I have not driven around Thruxton in a while, but for some reason I remember it being much more interesting... Clearly I was mistaken! So apologies for the poor choice of track - I promise not to be so trusting of my previous judgements in the future. That being said, you still seemed to enjoy yourselves on the whole, which is great!

I'm sorry that I could not join you for both races - I drove a couple of laps during the second race, but was ultimately distracted by an ongoing discussion (or rather two separate conversations) about our remote server and also the BTCC NGTC mod being used for this event.

Thank you to everyone who took part in this event, and congratulations to those who made it onto the podium in either of the races, as well as those who completed the two races.

I would also like to take this opportunity to welcome back @Joseph Wright, who was back on streaming duties for this event! Thank you very much, mate! I look forward to watching back the broadcast if I manage to find a bit of time later this week!

Finally, a quick reminder for everyone - we shall be returning to the multi-class events this week, so if you have not done so already then you can sign up here. We look forward to seeing you this Friday for the 90 Minutes of Road America!

I eventually failed to wake up at 3am sorry

HAHAHA! No worries mate! Hopefully you'll wake up in time for this week's race! Set an extra alarm, just in case!

There's no need to apologise! It sounds like you had a fun evening! Hopefully we'll see you on track again soon!
