Cheers for @HF2000 Han that wanted to let the forum Finns feel at home and covered the track surface in ice, but would you please now restore a proper amount of grip?

Oh yeah and I don't know how @Allan Ramsbottom could say he's not able to properly slide the Mazda this is drifting paradise!

Such a cool track and it's a real shame that it doesn't exist anymore.

Are you sure about this? It seems that Kemora is definitely still existing: https://www.kemora.fi/fi/kemora-in-english
Maybe you are referring to another track?

 

[Allan Ramsbottom]

@maxilogan,think you have misunderstood what i meant,yes you can drift the Mazda,but take the Alfa GTA around it,then you will know...

 

[ltnordb]

Signed up with the mazda. Never raced this track, let's see what it's about

Should've checked before talking some bull

When quickly read, the track map seemed similar to 'Keimolan Moottorirata(Keimola Motortrack)', which is shortens to 'KeMoRa', and it has been closed since '78.

My bad

Looks interesting for Abart/Mazda. Pity it isn't on S.GP.

Han cant we use a RD Server??

 

[Dzul]

Gents... I have to skip this race for quality-family-time reasons. I'm going away tomorrow, for a week, and today is the only evening I can spend together with my daughter since last week.

I'll be back in time for the next race. Have fun and looking forward to your stories afterwards!

When does practice start? Thread says 19 UTC, while simracing.gp says 18 UTC?

This is an opportunity for someone to win!

Oh, gosh! I'm feeling so stupid! I was looking forward to the race with quite an excitement, met @pcmoreno on the test server yesterday. I had decided to join because I wasn't able to drive the Mazda yesterday.. but then I forgot to register on the S.GP site

I was trying to connect now and couldn't connect then suddenly realized that I hadn't joined.

Have a good race guys, see you next week!

 

[640er]

Thanks Han as always. Fun combo it was. First 20mins were pretty intensene at the front. Plenty of good and fair battles

Seems Paulo, David, and Colin were all intent on not letting me have much of a race in clean open air today Got lucky with Hans "well timed" pit stop. Never knew one corner could have so many lines

Great racing all

 

[pcmoreno]

First of all, sorry @640er for almost ruining your race 2 laps before the end. When I opened up to let you pass I touched the grass on the other side and then the Abarth did its thing. I was quite relieved to just see you go unscathed.

Thanks @HF2000 for giving me the win due to better service provider. I don't count this one as a win though

The begin of the race was really nice I was able to hang on with the Mazdas with @Alfred Wayne pushing me to the limit until I made a mistake and crashed. Afterwards my focus was off and only got back to get decent times after my pit stop. I'm not very kind to tires so I also changed them. Did you too? @HF2000

Consistency errors plagued me especially on T1 and T2 and I was consistently bad on T10.

It's quite a fun track but the Abarths were not really a match for the mazdas on racing conditions even though practice and quali times were predicting a closer battle.

Great racing and great fun.
Congrats to the organizers and to the real winners(the ones that lapped me twice)
