Give your-selves a hand, :appl: That was a Good start, not mine, as I lost a couple of spots, but as a whole it was super. It almost lookes like we know what we are doing, and that is Scary :P I finally ran a compleate race, with lots of battles. I had a disagreement with another driver over the same piece of asphalt, we both spun, but no damage and only a few spots lost. Pit stratigy killed me ](*,) #-o :cen: oh well. Congrats to Mark for the win :appl: :worship: and to Scott for getting the whole team into the top 10. Terry M. chased me for the last 17 laps or so. Man way to keep the pressure on 8) Thanks for giving room out there :thumbup: Missed having Fab there :cry: He did such a Magnificiant paint job on my cars :loveit: it helped me to go faster :driver: looking forward to Daytona :wink: :smt025: :smt043: ..................Rick

Yeah I agree Rick, piece of race !!! :smt023: what a chase, one lap I got you and Scott right in my aim and the next one you were 2 secs away, then close again and so on, tons of fun !!! :D :D :D

I guess the incident you mention got me as well, I saw you spin right in fron of the pits moved to my left and passed safely only to find another car real slow in the middle of the track right in the path for T1, I had no other option than moving left again and out of the track spining myself. I dont know if this car was recovering as well or was just waiting for you to pass him back :? , anyhow wrong place and wrong time. :roll:

Then Norm spin in front of me and I got his rear fender, sorry boss I shoulded waited instead of try to pass behind you, only a second for me might ruined your car, I hope not. #-o

On the bright side yet another allien show from Norm and Sergio Mark and Pauly starting from the back :D
I think these guys have methanol instead of blood, we should do anti-doping after each race :mrgreen: :lol:

WTG guys you really rock !!! :worship: :worship: :worship:

Congrats everyone on a great start, thanks slower cars for the extra room....
and Mamerto´s for finishing the race with all cars again :smt038:

Congrats to Mark Urban, who came from his 5th starting position to take the win.
Also, cudos to Paul Nadeau, coming up from ninth to finish second, and
Sergio Casanovas, who filled out the podium. :appl:

Cudos to Glen Luening, who is our Hard Charger, coming from 19th, up
11 spots to take the Seniors top podium spot. :worship: Close behind was Scott Richards.
After a disastrous start to the season, Glen's steady driving and pit stop strategy
won the day.
CONGRATS TO ALL who ran and finished in what looked like
a very clean race for the second week in a row. The spaced out grid system is working! :rock:
As a testament to the quality and intensity of the driving, while at the end of many races
there may be as few as two or even one race leader, last night we had no fewer
than FIVE race leaders! :smt023: Further, of the 23 starters, only two failed to
score points, and only five retired before the race's end.

Still, though, some drivers need to look up the definition of "patience"... [-X

All in all, a good race for us. Well, not me, even though I had a lot of fun
I finished where I started, 14th. ](*,)
On to our second DOUBLE POINTS race, the one hour long 24 Hours of Daytona.
Don't miss it! :mrgreen:

NOTE: While we try very hard to make sure all drivers who have been practicing do
start the race, and we do try to wait on people who get disconnected, still at some
point we have to move the evening along and get things going. We do so with
a clear conscience, knowing we waited as long as possible before starting the race.
Sorry to any who got disconnected just before we rolled on to the race, we waited
as long as we could.

Had a terrible race myself, finding myself having to give way to the leaders quite early. I was wondering why I had to brake so much earlier than everyone else, and was getting beaten off the turns so dramatically. The answer dawned on me today---I had lowered the response of both my brakes and the accel way down in order to let my grandsons drive, and completely forgot about setting them back! :oops: So you guys have at least another week before giving me a probation like the IRL gave to Milka Duno---grin. Btw, if anyone here that uses a G25 would be so kind, what are the optimal settings for the wheel for this mod?
