Week 8 - Suzuka Circuit - pre & post race chat

[Deleted]

Congrats to Tony for your win and to the rest of the podium. I promise I won't whine anymore Rich about how off pace I was in practice. Pulled the 11 out in qually simply because I tried using the stickers and about 4 laps of gas. I slow out lat and one timed worked.

Anyway, I pulled out in front of my teammate Tony at the start and knew it would be short lived, he was just being kind not to push me out of the way. He did as expected, I bobbled and away he went. Then I had #2 problem behind me - Rich. OK same routine so around he went. Then checked out, then I settled for my normal race pace which included a few offs, bent sheet metal and just plain driving over my head. All around it was kinda quiet. Was down in 4th or 5th and had caught Kevin but he pitted then quiet again till the last 8 laps or so. Had Kevin in sight but couldn't seal it, actually lost time in the last 2 laps. Way to go KJ .

Thanks again for letting me join in the fun. I'm happy with the crowd and the admin'ng is great. Looking forward to more racing but really looking for some closer nose to tail, side by side stuff. So far, 2 races and kinda been by myself. Fact is - I'm really liking cars that you turn teh wheel and the car turns, imagine that

later fellas, see you next week sometime.

I think Dale has all but sealed the championship...unless he manages another DNF.

*Fingers crossed*

All I have to do for the last two races at a minimum is stick to your bumper.

And that shouldn't be too hard with my slow ass (at least compared to you in that Volvo).

I can buy you some time Helios if you don't spin and I can keep the Volvo behind me again for 5+ laps.

For that, I'll hook you up with a setup again. Hopefully I'll notice you running the Vette earlier.....

No worries, like I said last night, it was a last minute change literally.
