Race 1 was amazing. Richie ran a perfect race while there was a merry chse going on for 2nd place for most of the race. Dave, Patch and me were only 1 sec apart for first 11 laps until I ran into the left uphill railing when checking for Patch in the rear view mirror while closing in on mustang or bmx for lapping - and thereby missing the right point for turning in  Made it happily back to 3rd which turned out to be 2nd as Dave had collected some penalties on the way In 2nd race I did hold back at start and thus could avoid getting into any incident. Safety first, which paid off nicely with a 3rd place only 3 sec behind the winner  |

Great race yesterday every one Race 1 Off from pole just ran hard and could see a great battle for podium place's from the 3 porshe's of chol,patch and dave. And you guys must of had a ding/dong battle cause u's let me get away by about 10sec'c b4 it settled and the gap stayed the same. So um yea thanks for keeping each other bizzy and giving me space. R2 Off from last i tryd a outside move on chol and Ron (on race review page im the silly bmw on the brown stuff in pix2) to be about 7-8 and cort bmx and senn (sorry for punt bmx, was looking to try another outside move again) to slowly catch front runners and pass humty with only laps to go(i just couldnt shake you mate. BEAUTIFUL!!) and just get home with afew car lenths to spare with chol coming up fast in mirror. Great race and congrads to all Richie |

As I was expecting to crash to my desktop again in race 1 I didn't take the efford I usualy do in my qualifying and so I blew that. To my suprise the race loaded normaly and I was able to start in race 1. That could have been a better race if I didn't forgot to shift at a certain point and blew my engine, I already gained some positions before that happend, worked my way around the track to reach the pits for repairs and found myself 3 laps down when that was done. Race 2 I started on pole due to the reversed start order  . While others again started to battle each other behind me I managed to create a gap. Pitted 1 lap after Richie and still was in front when I got out. In lap 23 or 24 I made a mistake and Richie who was already right behind me saw the opening and without hesitating he dove into it and took the lead. R2 and pass humty with only laps to go(i just couldnt shake you mate. BEAUTIFUL!!) Richie Results.txt showed only 1.1 sec between us mate, awesome racing by all. Safety first, which paid off nicely with a 3rd place only 3 sec behind the winner Looking back on the replay the gap mus have been a bit more then those 3 sec, obviosly the penalty's that Richie and me collected worked in your advantage and gave you the 3 sec gap behind us. As I browsed through the replay the most unlucky driver in race 2 surely must have been OldnSlow, I counted at least 4 incidents he must have been in. Chris |

Sorry to all for having to run like that in 2nd race, but if I ever have time to run its gonna be like that, decided in last minute and no guarantee of being able to do the whole thing. Race wise, was quite a lot of fun. I've learned how to enjoy this mod using wheel, its just impossible now for me to go back to keyboard. I have to re-learn how to drive in heat, though. No trail braking and no mass displacement make for a quite differente experience than in Live for speed. Still, had a lot of fun, even if the occasional dive bombing substracted a bit of enjoyment. Also, I never get to understand this people that will trade paint in the harshest way as soon as someone steals their grid position when they've been caught sleeping - no need to be dirty just because you lost a position!! Anyway, looking forward to driving with you, hopefully being able to give someone a run for their money!  |
