Practice Server is up!
I tested it tonight and all the normal NAGT settings are available so no locked tires for the NAGT mod.
Cheers!

Great turnout for the race last night! 15 cars is pretty much the biggest field we've seen so thanks for supporting the series.  Bathurst is always a challenging but fun track. I had a good race overall with some good close battles. Unfortunately I screwed up after making my masterful pit strategy and pretty much tossed good positions away. Sucks but that is what makes racing fun. There is always an X factor somewhere to liven things up. I'll have results posted later today. Cheers! |

Had a blast. Didn't have anything for Dale & Rich. They pretty much checked out. Got into the grass a couple times in Murray's Corner after missing my brake point by a hair. All in all, it was pretty much all I could've hoped for. No shame finishing behind Dale, Rich, Dave, Boza & Stinky.

I did a few laps on my quali set the day before the race and was happy enough with my time then Wed I saw Rich was about 1 sec faster. Damn, I figured I'd target 2nd then.
Race day and I see Rich and I are close in warmup then I started getting more aggressive in the corners and I drop about a second from my time. The race was interesting... I bogged the restart and by the end of Mountain Straight I was in 3rd. I passed Rich at the end of Conrod with the mother of all braking moves. I have no idea how I found that grip... I thought for sure I was to be headed to the sand and maybe wiping out Boza in the process. After that I glued myself to Boza's bumper and a slight error on his part let me by.
The Volvo was slow on the straights so I had to make up my time in the corners and build a buffer. Lucky for me that Rich had an error because I had a fast spin that cost me 10 sec... so that evened us out.

I have to quit peaking in practice!  On race day I could not get to the 15's I saw the night before and Dale was. Had a good race until I lost it on the hill and plowed into the wall. Luckily The car was ok except for a tweeked right front. I ahd to deal with a crooked wheel for most of the race. Congrats to Dale, and everyone else that finished.  |

Initially wasn't going to race,no practice and had not been in the NAGT Mustang in many months,Rich M. caught me on TS 1/2 an hour before the race and convinced me to run,I'm glad i did,great group of guys,super clean racing,25 laps at Bathurst is a daunting task,made a big mistake late in the race letting Stinky by,might of been able to stay in 4th but i started driving my mirrors to much  Thanx for Racing!!! |
