AC GT3 @ Magione - Wed 4 June 2014

@Joao M Alves here's the video of our duel... the very last two laps before the overtake though, cause the replay recorded from the 16th lap

Great battle you two! Wow that was me just ahead of you two!

I had a blast and learned a lot before the race from @Chris Stacey about setups etc. Need to really drive a bit more with the tweaks to get use to the different feel of the car.

PS - after a tight course like Magione have I mentioned Mosport before? Ah, all that wide open space and those long sweeping curves!!!

That's great to hear that it helped. I really wanted to join, but was still at work. I'm starting to understand a little more of what to do to setup the car but need some more seat time tweaking it to see if I'm improving.

You did mention Mosport, I am up for it but I don't want another repeat of the Nords again. I'm going to wait to start using mod tracks till the track modding tools are released and people have a little time to improve them. But we will be running some in the near future.

I think maybe Mosport, Mid Ohio, Road America, and Leguna Seca will make an appearance.

I've been thinking about the race all morning! That track car combo is such a blast to me. The pit entrance is rubbish though.

Going to give the spotter app a go soon, when I get time to load it up.

Thanks Saleem! Yeah it's a shame I don't have previous laps, as @Joao M Alves was attacking pretty well!
And yes: that was you!! I had a feeling I could have caught up with you at some point as I was running faster than you for a few laps but then I started losing ground, I believe in the Esses...

The pit entrance is rubbish thought.

Totally agreed. It's an invitation to major crashes...

I saw that but then I started to get into a groove. Was almost into the 11's! I still got a ton of tweaking to do to get the car dialed in. I started pulling in Keith I think and if I had one more lap I may have gotten him. Was on his bumper at the Esses... Then the race was over! Was so excited after that bad pileup I caused.

Hi guys,

I am sorry I missed this race. Yesterday I had a very complex situation at home and was unable to attend it. Sorry about this. Hope it will not happen again. I was very interested on this event.

@Emilio Collavino My POV. The pass looks way faster than it felt yesterday... In the race it felt like that corner took a few days to get through.

That's true man! I think I was slightly faster then you on the straights but you handled the car in a great way through those corners. GJ! Having you on my six was seriously unnerving! LOL
And... your helmet is ******g awesome!! Did you retexture it?? How??

Thanks. I did up my helmet in Paint.net. Its free and pretty easy to use, but I can't remember where I got the template for the helmet.
