Race #01
This battle was unreal guys, I really had a ball. (All PD issues aside)
Still rubbing my eyes after this round!
After pulling out a 1:30.1Q arrive on the grid 4th behind Mint. Mint stumbled when the lights went out allowing me passed into 3rd, with ONLY Dan and Warrior ahead! Just tried to hang on to their drag and maintain a gap with Mint. As I was catching War, Mint too was eager to pounce as I'm sure he could also see the green and blue paint being swapped ahead...lap 4 through the 1st tunnel Mint tried a move to pass but I held my nerve remained in 3rd .
I couldn’t believe that as a mere mortal, I was matching it with the Aliens!
Lap 12 and Dan cracked under the pressure of a relentless Warrior, hit the grass on exit of 1st tunnel, sent into a sideways drift and t-boned by Warrior allowed him to regain his composure. Warrior bore the brunt, allowing me to slide past. Warrior copt a punt from me on second last lap (very sry mate).
Held my 2nd to the line keeping Dan honest out front. What a cracker!
Race #02
Good Start from 2nd last to 2nd in 4 corners as I watch the carnage unfold! With Rotor on my tail, a call from team Radio “Alonso is faster than you...” allowed my teamy through to hunt the Stig. Now I become a rear gunner as I watched a lime green dot in my mirrors become ever larger as Rotor reeled in the Stig. Lap 6, Rotor had the job done and now I had to make a move past Stig to stop the Warrior heat. Lap 11, back straight pulled beside Stig and made the move at the sweeper. Not sure what happend next but Stig got pinged into wall by lag. (really disappointed with this as this was going to be a battle to the Flag, sry Stig)
I know Warrior was affected also as he was avoiding the racing line so I gave him the spot when I felt he was within my draft, hopefully redeeming myself for the punt I gave him in the first race.
The rest was up to Rotor for NLR as I could not hold Warrior back any longer. An epic last lap saw Warrior take the lead down the back straight into the sweeper!!! There just weren’t enough corners left for Rotor to take the position back and the results stand.
Well done guys on some high Quality racing. Sorry again for PD/my connection causing some issues.
Warrior and Dan had some serious pace here at Trial. TRL_Beau was also threatening (saw a 1:29.7) but had a disconnect. How do you guys consistently find a couple of tenths? Just Insane!
