What a race !
If thats going to be normal for the season, then everyone needs to put their seatbelt on and race in a full face helmet !
Q - I was off my PB by just under .1 and lined up 7th with a 12:8 which put me 7th..... only .2 off the front row...Bloody close times lads !
R- Got a great start and settled in to 7th i think with a crazy pack in front and behind.... TBH the whole thing is a bit of a blur, pack racing does that ! I just tried to stay in the draft of BLue, stozz, benny and AOC, and see what happened later in the race... Gary hooked on for the ride and by lap 10 i think i was up to 4th or 5th after stozz had an issue, and AOC and Benny came together..... Gaz and i had managed to gap the guys behind, and were now in our own little battle, till lap 20 odd, he got a run down the back, and we went side by side through the last 2 turns.... I though time for my stop, and decided to not take tyres..... Worked a treat, as gaz, slambo and a few others lost 10 sec in the stops.....
With about 15 to go i just had Aykay and Ant ahead, yet to stop, and poppin about 8 seconds up the road.... Was thinking i was on for a result, so started to clench when blue was closing with about 5 to go...... Managed to hold on for 2nd, which ill happily take, really clean race, only slight hiccup was when i braked checked Gaz into the bus stop trying to stay out of a 5 car battle in front of me !! Sorry mate.....
Well done to @POPPINFRESH1234 , not a bad return to the series ! Looking forward to seeing you and the front runners go at it in these cars....
At this stage results are still provisional, however no messages yet re driving standards or protests.....
Cheers stu
