Grrrr, dead cert 3rd place blown because the screen froze momentarily. Ended up on the grass heading for a barrier, result front-left puncture, beached in the gravel trap unable to move.
Very frustrating.
Won't be there next week as I'm in Italy so I guess I'll see you all at Donnington (IIRC) in two weeks time.

yea great race all round, will be interesting to see the stats.
I know I took Eau Rouge too fast on lap 4 and dismantled my car in the barriers........
Oh well, on to Brno next and a change of car (same class though)... I'm gonna give the 'vette a go as I had a quick blast round Spa lastnight (after my accident in the Vertigo... ) and with standard set-up went 6 seconds quicker than the vertigo! - so I might be able to keep up a bit better in the last couple of races .

I saw the remains of that. Saw lots of smoke, tyre marks, wreckage then you parked on the side quite a way further up the road.
The Corvette will be quicker as it's effectively a GT class car, the Vertigo is an NGT. It is the best starting point for GT's as it's got good handling.

I had a slight sidewards moment at Eau Rouge and dropped back behind the MJ's blue Lister and Ben's 550 (I think) and took the first lap easy this time.
I drove the Saleen for the first time for ages and loved it. I was actually having and catching opposite lock moments quite easily with it that the F550 wouldn't. Plus I'm a sucker for a big V8.
I'm qualifying on race setup these last few races and it's certainly helped me get into the groove, I even went faster in the race than my qualy time.
And it's Brno next

so it was someone else keeping me honest then an I notice my fastest time was only .4 slower than yours FWD which makes me 2nd quickest, wow! there's hope for me yet..............roll on Brno....Brno.....Brno (arrrr the boxing days of the 90s )
edited to say: Just looked at the graph, twaz Ian chasin me
FWD - does the qualy time count as fastest (1 point) time? or just 'in race' times? be nice to get a point
