Nice race reports all.
Was very happy with my qually time for 2nd place on the grid no beating MarcelW this time.
Race 1, as said already by Bart, big crash after start. No fail with me, Gorka slowed and moving over me. All I could do was hit the brakes but to late. I knew there was a car to left (bart). Big mess with just about all cars behind us. :S Straight to pits, 85 seconds damage, somehow I managed to put 30 laps of fuel in my car, oops. After that, lots of overtaking cars. A lot of the cars I was overtaking were cars 1 lap in front of me, but soon I started to caught cars for positions. Had one or two hairly moments with one or two of the new guys, but finished not too bad.
Race 2, Had good start. Did everyone else forget where the gas peddle was? :O Shot passed the row infront of me, but soon was held up. I was stuck in the middle lane, the slow lane as it seems as cars left and right were flying pass. Was as Bart said "accelerate, let off, accelerate, let off ". David Coyne was infront to the right, on the road that takes you to the oval layout of the track, in his panic he tried getting back to the correct side of the road but side hit a car. that car hit another car, then that car hits the wall then bonces into... guess who's path? yes mine
. I find myself doing cartwheels down the track finally stopping on my head. Marcel and David were close to see if I was still alive. Back to the pit for an other long stop. Still finished in top 10.
Watching replay of race 2. Had big laugh at watching a big crash that developed in pitlane. Poor David Coyne was thinking what the hell is going on as he was sitting there with cars spinning and doing 3 point turns around him. Sorry to laugh
All out of fish.
