Yes, thanks very much for hosting!
Rich, KJ and I had a good battle going in the first race and Rich was riding me like Seabiscuit right to the end! Great fun.
Second race KJ made an adjustment to his car and he was GONE. Didn't help I couldn't get a grip (literally) on T2 for some reason.
Good fun all round.
Cheers!

Congrats to Kelly on the race 1 win.
Hell of race guys!! Race 1 what a battle with Kelly and Rich. Shortly after the final race 1 start I realized I hadn't readjusted my brake pressure to what I found had worked after I reloaded my set just before race start. It was all I could do stay in front of Kelly and probably was holding him up. Managed to hook a curb in corner 3 flinging me off course. Kelly and Rich went by, drove my ass off to get back up to them and nearly did, but no I hooked the same curb again. This time I lost a lot of time and just rode it out till the end. But wait Rich ran out of gas on the front straight to gift me 2nd place, thanks buddy!!
Race two: No Rich and I made the brake adjustment, big difference in the car. Just tried to get the tires up to temp and then pound out laps, managed to slowly pull a gap on Kelly. Was really trying hard to not hook that same damm curb again and hand it back to Kelly.
Fun racing and another one of my favorite tracks!

And congrats to you as well!
If you don't mind me asking, what change did you make to your brakes? I'm assuming it was the balance as the first race your back end was trying to come around every time you were braking.

I'm assuming it was the balance as the first race your back end was trying to come around every time you were braking. Thanks. No the change was pressure. I had no stopping power in the first race, I was just standing on it and it would still glide into the corner too fast. Sad thing was I figured it out quickly in practice and made the change but kept playing around with stuff trying to make a fast lap for qualy. Then when it was race time I just reloaded my race set forgetting about the brake change. |
