It just now occurred to me that I'll almost definitely be missing the September 18st race as my parental units are visiting, might possibly miss the 25st race too but I probably won't know for sure until nearer the time.

Just quoting myself to let you guys know I'm still probably not going to make it to tonight's race, there's an outside chance I "might" make it but if I'm not online by the start of qualifying then please assume I won't be there and don't wait for me :)

Thanks buddy.

I hadn't forgotten, and I felt even worse for your disco last week because I knew you would be missing this one as well  :(

I went out for some laps late last night.  I think my front tires will go maybe 20 laps, but my left rear is running on threads on the 10st lap.  That said, I've got no skills and am very rusty.  Is anyone/everyone able to run 29 laps with just one stop?

Same here Rick.  Because of the rear tires my car becomes quite the handful a few laps before pitting!  :o

I was just looking at the standings and it shows me with 42 points or something close to that.  I also read something that says if you miss a race you get 10 points.  I've missed both races, shouldn't I only have 20 points?

Agreed, I think he was giving you disconnect points because technically you were out for mechanical failure (broken clutch) vs not being physically able to make it, which you were if not for the kitteh...

But you complaining?  I'll second a vote to give you only 20 pts :P

I did something in the race tonight I've never done before.  I completely mismanaged my fuel.  I ran a good first stint, then my race went to shit.  I knew as soon as I clicked ok I was fucked.  On the second stint I had no choice but to pit after 8 laps, which meant my final stint was going to be 11 laps on tires that are good for 9.5.

During the whole second part of the run, I continued looking at the fuel gauge trying to figure out what the hell happened, and in the process, I played in the sand a couple times and spun once. 

3th place was far better than I could have hoped for after the gas debacle.  Well done, F1, maybe we can do it again sometime.

Thanks!  Series results up front updated ;)

I also added a tally for Manufacturer's Cup (why not?)

Finally, thank you to Rick for pointing out a few scoring errors (some systematic, some arithmetic).  Everything should be correct now.

I'm iffy this week due to chauffeuring duties, but schedule unclear. My laptimes in practice were also iffy so might be a good one to miss
