I was enjoying the race before my dnf I was racing with Mike then got a sily stop and go for cut track then on the pit exit lost on cold tires with damage on 70% any well hit will cause big damage the car was not safe to drive back the pits so I had to pull out
Thanks to Cambo for putting this series on

I had fun Softs were fine for the race, rears got a little bit slippery but no worries, didn’t slow down much. Thanks to all.

Good race but not much action for me. Think I had about a 10 second gap either side for most of it. The top 3 guys were just fast, especially Daniel! Interesting track Took a while to get used to, but nice in the end. Well done Daniel, Josh and Sputnik, and everyone that finished.

Yeah had a good race.. built up a good 10 second gap between myself and smitch, but then hit neutral by mistake at the end of the straight which put me into a spin when I engaged 1st, that brought the gap down to 3 seconds which i noticed Josh had passed Smitch, Josh applied a lot of pressure for about 5 laps, but with 4 laps to go I ran a little wide and Josh punished me for that. Well done guys, so far my best Qualy position, now I know what it's like to have no one in front of u on the grid.

Good fun but silly mistakes , good fun battling Cambo for half the race ,ran mediums up front and soft rears as fronts were wearing too much for full race for me . After the quicker stop turned it around on 3 consecutive laps a 2nd gear hair pin , twice causing drive throughs grrr threw away a handy result .. took ages to get a good balance again of brake bias , TC and ABS to get some confidence back again.. can’t believe the softs lasted all race at your pace Daniel , must be a nice set.. l have read of concerns about the tyre wear differing across cars in the mod with the radical being being worst, maybe there is something in that .... well done podium and finishers

The setup was fantastic, but I did have to take care of the tyres to make them last. Once the softs get to about 50% it gets a bit sketchy. I did purposely set the car up for the long run though, as opposed to what I used to do. It’s amazing how much difference a tiny damper tweak can make in the late race.

Was having a great battle with Bwana , Front guys just took off. Josh & Shano came past through during the battle which made it interesting but couldn't get past. Then after a small mistake I got through. Eventually I went wide somewhere and got a stop/go. Came back round and pitted. Decided my softs were not going to last so pitted for more & pushed hard to try and catch Duke but was too far and he matched my pace so 7th was the best I could get. Great fun track but keeps you busy for the whole time. Well done to Daniel , Josh and Sputnik for the podiums.

I need to correct myself, I stated that I ran wide and Josh passed me, but after watching the replay Josh got a good exit before the main straight and passed me. Really enjoyed watching the replay all the way thru the pack. i also didnt realize until after the race that you can have different compounds front & rear.. DOH!!
