Yeah, I heard you say it, then noticed you were in the pits for several laps. Bummer I might have to check my replay to watch your roll.

I debated on not racing tonight and at the last minute decided to give it a go. Should have just watched some TV. Made a mistake on lap 3 that allowed Tim to get around me just before the chicane. Didn't realize the guy behind him was going for the spot also. Went to turn in and there he was. He actually got the worse end of it in the chicane, but I lost concentration and put it into the pit wall in the last corner. I've watched the replay several times and all I can say is that it is bordering a dive bomb. When I started my turn in, I was still clear of him. Having said that, if I'd have seen he was going for it, I would have given room and let him by. Personally I felt it was a racing incident. Until he complained at me about it after the race. Anyway, here's the Americas broadcast for tonight. He had no business trying to shot for that corner Jason, i could hear the contact and was like "oh no Jason". I didn't expect to be in the 2nd split but it turned out pretty good, came close to catching Issac at the end. |

Well..... That was interesting. There were only 4 of us that qualified in the 2nd split, and the winner gridded up 5th. He was quite a bit faster than the rest of us. It was a fun first couple laps, then pretty much hotlapping for another 25. Tony was a bit faster than I was tonight. He was a few 10ths further away with every lap. Pretty happy with my 3rd. Not sure if I'll race tomorrow or not. Tonight's shot of the race.  Edit: Surprisingly enough I made it through the race with 1 inc. |

Sitting on the pole of the second split made me so nervous! I managed another 1:27 in qualifying and like Jason said there were only four of us who actually qualified. I thought I was going to have my first V8SC win after I jumped out to a solid lead early in the race, but all that changed when David (semi-alien) managed to pass Jason after 8 or so laps. He caught up to me and passed me like I was standing still, so I had to resign myself to a second place split if I managed to keep it on track.

I didn't race last night, so I completely forgot to share the Americas stream.

Tim, you are meant to go forward down the hill not backwards, that looks funny all cars going forward and a car turned around wouldn't have been funny for you though. Very rarely do you see a Ford not doing well, even some of te bad drivers in the real v8s do well in a ford and then put them in a holden and the car turns into a trash can

LOL What can I say. I drive hazard style and still pull down 2:10s.... Kinda...
Actually it's a rarely used technique I learned to break the concentration of whoever's chasing me. I call it "Iliveoutinthemiddleofnowherewithcrappyinternet". Kind of a mouth full.
