That was fun - glad I had a chance to race ’my’ BMW for once!
I was on quite a catch up not having driven the car since releasing it and was jolly happy to get so close to Cruicky.
In practice I’d found I could keep the car together for 15 or so laps - and the pit boxes were close together so I thought a late pit might work. Unfortunately, I forgot to turn repairs off - so after almost rolling the car when we first caught up with Bruce (my fault - I was distracted), I lost 10 secs or so that I could’ve saved as the damage didn’t affect the handling - I then had to work really hard to beat Dan which I only managed on the penultimate lap…
Good stuff!
