Great race last night. Brought the Corsa Comfort home 3st. The only excitement I had was getting taken out during a bout of lag from some guy in a Fiat.

I noticed that lag as well. (from the Fiat).

I was a bit overzealous on the first lap and spun out in the 5th turn :-X  I worked my way back up to 8th by the end of the race though.  Had some tight racing with LastLeafFan, hope he didn't take offense from some slight bumping.  With those slow ass cars it can be incredibly difficult to make a clean pass since you're in close proximately so much :o

Not a problem, I enjoyed our battle but must admit that I was laughing when you must have gone off course 3 or 4 times and have to catch up all over again. I had to pit when my tires were gone and everyone was gaining on me but lost concentration on the last turn and forgot to downshift and ended up in the sand.

I was gaining on the 2 places in front of me and think I could have caught them with a few more laps.

What I did have a problem with was Lancifer punting me off the track in the early going and sending me from 5th to 9th I think and then not saying a word or waiting. I don't know if there is a penalty system but if anyone has a replay and can verify that was who it was I would appreciate it. I don't remember the lap but it was pretty early. I think I could have given 5th or 6th a run though.

Overall I think it was a fairly boring race and look forward to the next one.

You don't have to do that, Dude.  I'm sure EivlEvo will have the results posted soon.  :)

I assume it wasn't a Tuna though?

I don't think so.  In fact it was a first timer on the MTCS, first race.

DS was our Tuna podium man @ 3st


I knew in advance that I was off pace. I did manage a 1'39.7 in an online free run shortly before the event. I was consistent in the 1'40 to 1'43 most of the race, but the top guys were turning consistent 38's and 39's. We did not get lapped.  :) It was close I was a lap down, but P1 lost tires and I got my (LLF finished on lead lap too) lap back.

I've yet to run a single lap in preparation for tonight's race.   :(

I don't even have a car prepared.  :(

I wish I had more free time.   :(

Well it looks like I've got 8 more laps in then you do  :P. Wolfpack is talking 47's, I'm lucky if I can keep it on track and do a 51.

Agreed.  I was kind of miffed that the info for this race wasn't posted till 11:30pm this past Thursday night.  At 500PP there are a lot of options.  Meanwhile for the last race we had almost 2 weeks of prep time and pretty much 1-2 vehicle options ???

I think you're just sandbagging!  Also after averaging out lap times over the life cycle of a set of tires I'd say the times are like 2:53  ;D

If you call running about 8 laps total with 4 different cars and not making it around in one piece prepared then I'm good to go.

Now to figure out what car to run as none of them would turn

Congrats to Dawson for the great win and Wizard for the 2rd. As well as Dude for the consistent run and I'm not sure if you held on to 3st or not, I had enough troubles of my own.

With only 7 showing up and then Phreak dicoeing I finished 6st, what's up with that  ???. I saw Sniper sign in about half way, not sure what happened there.

What a :fucking mess I made of that, getting lapped twice by the leaders. I will be back.
