Are we qualifying or is it a random grid??

In the interest of trying to keep it a low time impact series, grid ordering will be random.

Congrats on the win Knight! Well done! That was a really fun race and this mod has changed my opinion about sim Porsche's. These cars were super fun to drive and I'm looking forward to the next one.
Great race everyone.
Cheers!

Thanks for coming out everyone. Sounds like there was several battles going on through out the field. Huge apology to Kelly. I knew your tires were starting to go off, and should've left more room going into T1. I didn't leave myself enough reaction time...and ended up locking the brakes and couldn't turn if I wanted to. Up until then it was great fun. Managed the gap to Kelly, hoping my setup would allow my tires to last longer. By mid-way I was starting to creep back up. With 5:00 to go, I was all over his back bumper, watching him start to slip and slide. It would've been a great last couple laps...I think I had enough car left at the end I may have gotten him. But alas I pissed it away...and took him with me.  Congrats Knight! |

Great run Knight, especially as you had to endure the bumper car match Hawks and I had going for a couple laps.
Good fun, looking forward to the next one.

Wow the sweat is poring off me, that was one hell of a race, the start was okay and from that moment on it was a battle, got a little breather mid race as I was chasing Seaharks down tires cooking all the time, then gifted the lead and the last lap was just scary, mirror full of three cars. Defensive driving is my thing and it held me in good stead for not only my first finish but much to my surprise the win. Thanks guys it was great dicing with you  roll on next week! |

Just a question, I was looking at the replay and noticed every car has weird lines in them, like a render error, anyone else see this? I don't think it was there in the race.

No worries helios! We had great laps the bulk of the race and it was FUN! I confess to trying to bait you a bit during mid race. I knew you were really good at managing your tires (way better than me), so as soon as we had a gap on the pack, I backed off a bit hoping you would use up your tires trying to reel me in. Didn't work, but I had to try! Cheers! |

Congrats to Knight on his first GBR victory.
About took out Wolf and Knight a couple times but luckily kept from wiping them out completely.
I was a little squirly in these cars but they are still a lot of fun to drive.

I started noticing that on my original install...though it was only my car...all the others were fine. I ended up doing a fresh install of the mod, and it seemed to correct the problem. Oh, and I should probably note when I switched to my R2P profile, the "lines" were gone, which is what prompted me to do a fresh install of the mod. |

Didn't work, but I had to try! Cheers! It was definetely a strategic race. I had to keep telling myself, "Don't get too aggressive, just keep him within reach, the race will come to you". And it almost worked. Then I spun a couple more times after that because I was still rattled about wrecking you out. Pretty much nail in the coffin. |

roll on next week!
