Stay out of Boza's way at T1! That was some funny s@&t. I remember both us cracking up as our cars were rolling down the track!! |

OMG what a shitty night!!! for me anyway...
Grats to Boza and Hawks on the Pro win, and to Scott on the Sportsman class win.
I new going in to this one that it would be a bad night for me because in practice I could never string more then 5 laps together with out spinning.
But tonight the curbs got me in both events. The kicker was pushing Kurt into the wall, I was not focusing on what I was doing and ran him right into the wall. Sorry Kurt, but I did get the worst of it, and rightly so.

I never really check the results files but I was curious about an incident. I clicked the results file of Race 1, navigated to "Race incidents" and the only thing it says is "Sorry, way too many incidents to show!"  Race 1 for me was pretty good. I think I got into Marvin in L1 T1. I thought he was going to slot in behind me after the start. I tried to give room but there is only so much you can do without going into the chicane's barrier. Anyhow, sorry. I spent the rest of the race just trying to bring it home. I had decent pace compared to the rest of the field but Boza and Hawks were in their own league. Race 2 was way more eventful. I lost concentration in lap one and went into the barrier. Lucky with little damage. It sent me back to tenth. I just started to churn laps and made back spaces little by little. I was able to get my way back in front of Dale only to screw up again and hand him back the position. Lucky for me some of the guys in front of me had some issues. I think Dale had a spin and Marvin and Jeff both had penalties. I agree with the others that the track isn't perfect grip-wise, but it's too good of a layout to leave it out. However, I hope they fix the Real-Road soon. This may be my second favorite street course behind Long Beach. Thanks for the racing. Hope to see you all at the next WES exhibition - and remember, it is a preseason event for the upcoming series! |

Race 1 for me was a nightmare. I screwed up turn 1 on lap 2 and hit the tire barrier. Thought about quitting but figured it can't get any worse. Had some more goof ups but ended up 11th.
Race 2 was great except for my big blunder early on and lost my front bumper. Was still able to drive the car fairly well and ended up with a great battle with Scott. I saw him pit so I decided I would do the same. Since I needed major repairs he was able to get out before me but I ended up catching him at the end. This was about the time Chris decided to finally figure out the track. So I am right behind Scott, with Chris breathing down my neck. 1 or 2 more laps and I think Chris would have been able to find away around me, but the laps ran out and I will take 7th at this track any day!
Great fun and congrats to the podium!

In case anyone is curious. I now put 99 race laps on the practice server just as a placeholder until Jason works out the lap count. I used to guess at it then found out a few guys were using that lap count to work out strategy... which sucks when you show up to race and the lap count is altered.
