Personally despite a lack of numbers being a tight track not the best place to be having Cup drivers tbh no offense. If can't get you in S1 then your doomed for the lap essentially.

Better make sure you get them in sector 1 then

Qualifying: 7th

Was 3 tenths slower than my personal best, car just didn't have the grip. Looks like I wasnt the only one not to hit their pbs

Race: 6th

Got abit unlucky with my positioning in the first lap and fell down to last with everyone dragging me out wide with them but I just settled down and tried to settle into a rhythm. Lap 2 I had some contact with Shoaib, I thought I broke early enough with it being 150m but apparently that wasn't enough and the contact sent him into Martijn. I got a penalty and waited for both men to return to the track. From then on I was just trying to keep things clean and pick up a few spots. I had jumped shoaib in the pits and Falcon spun, had a pretty nice dice with Martijn and then passed lynchy, who then quit later on in the lap due to embarrassment apparently... Second round of stops came and I had to sit behind my pit crew as my teammate pitted at the same time and I didn't realise. This handed my position to Martijn and Falcon. I soldiered on since finishing there still would have given me 2 points, then Sam disconnected, Falcon spun and then Martijn had a half spin, putting me right back on him again, at which point he drove into a bollard and his car was destroyed lol and I brought the car home in 6th.

Vast improvement over last season, I had 3 points at this point last season, I now have 18. It also shows the advantages of not quitting, something else I don't do this season lol. Hopefully I can continue this form as we get rid of the tilke tracks for a while. Also, all my points finishes this season have been an 8th, 7th and now 6th, so my next points finish SHOULD be 5th lol *crosses fingers*

This is just to discuss incidents though - the stewards don't have to read it. It's just hear because people like to offer their opinions. It's not like it matters if a steward's opinion is swayed though - we're not out to get anyone, so if anything I think their opinions will be swayed in a constructive rather than destructive manner.

I see your point but it's just the principle of the thing. You're also right that stewards don't have to read this thread so I will take that into account as well.

I don't read this thread while investigations are going on so its ok for me. Plus it stop people doing it in the actual stewards thread. I'm just glad I'm not being moaned at in here anymore lol

Qually 8th.
Had pace to fight for 3rd on options, but I saw in the practice sessions with Jamie Saif Mike, Josh and Lynchy that I had somr very good pace on prime, so I went for primes. Just a tenth faster would have gotten me 6th on the grid, but made a little mistake.

Race.
Had a decent start, following Frede. Had a gap of like 4 seconds to the cars behind but than waa taken out in the first turn on lap 2, by Shaoib I think. Was really agry and that completely ruined my tyres and strategy. Had some good battles with Jamie although I was forced of the track quite often, but thats racing I guess on here. Fought my way all back into 6th, then on lap 28 I had like 3 times a kerbbug which made me half spin. Lost 6 seconds to Jamie and had him right on my tail by the last lap. Got pretty nervous as I was quite pleased with 6th in the end, but I cut one corner maybe a bit too much which gave me terminal damage..

Its a real shame seen where Frede ended up, and I had the same potential race pace so a podium was in reach, but that lap 2 crash just ****ed it all up.

Now I'll be aiming for a win at Spain to compensate the bad first races, which is realistic as its known to be a controllerfriendly track.

I think Boothy meant lapping them, not racing them.

I just realized that my job will be taking more time midweek than I anticipated, so I think I have to leave my spot to someone who actually can race most Tuesdays..(wich I don't seem to be able to). Sry for any inconv. I may have caused and I wish u guys a great season.

 

[John Best]

Thanks for all of the great comments guys. It wasn't a decision I made lightly and took a lot of consideration and thought. I'll probably have doubts when it gets to 21:30 on a sunday but in the long term I think its right to take a back seat for a while. I'll still be around on the forums watching your videos after the races.

Have fun racing
