GTR 2

[Tom Ilsbroux]

heheheh no problem
it was fair in my eyes....i had tons of fun...trying to see where i can make my car fit ....all to make a great racing....some rubbing & paint swapping

can it be there...oh...no it can't...
I tried to put pressure on you, but i also got pressure from Toni behind me.....
so it was a great night

Ah nice, i was impressed with your driving i must say, its easy to loose patients after so many try's certainly when someone is pushing you. I try alway to leave room if i know someone is next, offcourse I can't leave the door completly open .
Remember we went side by side through the last corners and then you tried a move in the first corner and outbraked and i could catch you back. Nice piece of driving, lol, some laps later you did got me in that first corner. These moments i remember, and that is why i love racing so much.

 

[Toni Talvitie]

ok race. 1st stint couldnt get past aponte and some1 else for a long time.
then to pits. went ok, came to track behind leader and got past him, made some
distance and wishing that he would pit, which he didnt, lol.
aponte was stuck behind leader car for a few laps so made good progress there,
pretty safe 5th spot at that moment i figured...until...
some dude, backmarker, blocked me for 2 or 3 rounds, not letting me to pass, ffs.
lost my advantage to aponte right there and rest laps were horrid pushing as we raced
to the finish line.
aponte got past me, and i didnnt like the style how he did it, so i became lil mad
myself and kinda let him have it too.
btw, are we allowed to switch racing line multiple times when some1 tries to overtake?
what about if you make mistake and just come back to track and just block even
when speed difference is very big?

and some1 else for a long time.

That was me

 

[Christopher Aponte]

yeah sorry bout that Toni.....I knew i was faster than you & i kept searching for openings as you were closing those tight opening...I saw a small gap & i know my car can stick in that corner, so i went for it. Only downfall is that my exit speed was way slower. But hey, you got me back 2 laps before final hard on T3...where normally you go single file...but i'm not complaining...i guess it's part of racing on this track ...quite frankly i loved it....& i could have smelled that 5th place for just a couple of seconds

I have to say that this track is so small that the racing lines are really small/close to each other....if you go out just a bit you risk going in loose stuff & loose grip & speed

coming back on track & blocking depends on the situation....you must look at the situation closely & try to think what the person was thinking

My apologies for missing the race without notice. Sounds like it was a good race.

Well Quali in 13th !! (bad omen not sure :circuitzolder: )

Race went well was in a good 4 car dice for quite a while, upon meeting backmarker they moved over when they could even when they were in their own battle so I would like to thank them for some excellent driving and mirror work.

During the latter part of the race I was holding a strong 5th with 6th closing a second a lap but the were 5 laps short of catching me.

I had a couple of occasions when lapped drivers caught me first 1 pasted me then he was not running fast enough to pull away but luckly after 2 laps he had to pit, towards the end of the race another lapped driver caught me but kept dropping back a bit then pulling closer so it was difficult to work out if they were quicker, I would have to say with so few laps to go it is a hard choice as to weather to slow to let him through as 6th was running quicker than me and I couldn't afford to lose to much time!

Jesper:- After sleeping on it I would have to say I'll put it down to one of those racing incident but unlapping yourself is a very tricky thing to do as to have been lapped the driver infront must think that your pace is slower in the first place so it's hard to know weather to move over or not, with so few laps to go and being caught I could not afford to lose time but hindsight is a wonder full thing. :bike:

 

[TobiasR]

sorry guys, have to pull out
real life came up

 

[Ross Balfour]

Grats Gary

I got caught on the rumble strip on the exit of the last corner and got carried into the barrier. Lonley race after I spent 20 seconds trying to get out of the gravel at the 1st turn.

Event didn't go as I hoped, but I had fun. This needs to be a reqular thing, these timed races are so diffrent than that short Race 07 races.

Maybe G2 class next time, I'd love to give the M3 GTR a go

I was listening on TS, I need to get my mic working so I can join in properly. I did try but it didn't seem to like me, wasted 10 minutes of my practice

 

[Daniel Pettit]

Very pleased with that, drove hard and was lucky towards the end that my 6th got turned into 4th. Really pushing at the end to catch 3rd and stay away from 5th

 

[Jerome Benard]

Thanks Ross to proposed this nice event and another big thanks to RD staff.
:alla:


Very nice race for me and good battle at the end of the race with Micheal

Thanks all

CYA next.

 

[Jai Spencer]

Loved it, Me TVR pulled like a train, and it was great fun, myself and Sébastien battling for 13th was great fun, well done mate in the end, i lost the rear on the final corner, no surprises there!

Well driven all, and to those on TS :drunk:

Cheers chaps!

FEAR THE TVR! Wooooooohooooooo!
