Content with last nights results. Pair of top 10s...including a top 5!

Spent a lot of time racing with Kelly & Jarhead, good stuff. Got 5th after a couple cars in front of me got together, with Boza spinning down the track. Jarhead went right to avoid while I went left. Boza's car ended up spinning to the right side of the track, causing Jarhead to check up. I ended up picking up 3 spots in one shot. Sometimes it's better to be lucky.

Man, running with the controller after using the wheel for a couple month sucks, I went into last night with a tune I had set up with the wheel. I still managed to hit my fastest lap time, But man was it a handful.

Fun race last night, getting two top 10 finishes was very unexpected, considering the level of racing in GBR. It was fun chasing KG most of the first race, I was alone for much of the second race. I have the T500RS, Clubsport pedals and THR8S sequential shifter dialed in, but my Rennsport wheel stand gave me problems last night, as it came loose during the second race. I have got to remember to tighten the knob more often!

Anyway, last night was proof positive that what we have going is special. Lets keep it up.

I forgot how much fun those darn races are. Sorry again to Boza, I know we didn't crash into each other but it might have ended better for you if we did. I just touched the slick stuff with a back wheel and I was sideways before I knew it. Fortunately you didn't crack me but it seemed like someone else did and I got off lucky after straightening out. Boy everyone was fast though, I had a hell of a time catching Ced and Lawyer, there just wasn't enough time to make up the lost spots.

The second race was awesome, I drove well and somehow hit my fastest lap on the last lap at a 1:08.9 or so which surprised me. It was just an auto pilot show though around me, I couldn't catch F1, Boza couldn't catch me, and that was that just fast laps, clean racing. Good times.

Thanks to all it's a pleasure to race and race tight knowing everyone's being careful and aggressive at the same time. I'm excited about Autumn Ring, it's a sweet track with some fun and tough turns so it should be awesome for round 2.

thanks for the points table Dale, Smokey I think we should have a team or constructors points table too, Team Cervelo would be doing pretty well I suspect.
