Turned up with about 20 mins before quali because i had trouble getting rfactor to launch on saturday and all but given up on doing this race (missed qualifying for the 2.4 sebring), tried one last time just in case and luckily this time rfactor lauched. Allen once again kindly gave me his set up and i was good to go (except for the no practice bit!)

Qualifying: Did an ok lap (14th) considering i was still getting to grips with the car and track but wasnt at all surprised that i didnt make it into Q2.

Race: Had a decent start and after all the 1st lap caper i think i was into the top 10 avoiding all the incidents. Passed Tim and Mark early on and started to wonder if i was on the wrong statagy as i seemed to be quicker than the guys around me. Tried to push as hard as possible to increase gap to Mark D behind me and try and close the gap to Steve T in front before 1st stop. I managed both, got within a 2 to 3 secs behind Steve and about 15 secs in front of Mark. Had a tidy pit stop and was just behind Steve but i switched my limiter off at the green light and not the line which earned me a stop and go. Gutted, all that hard work down the drain. Luckily for me only Mark passed as the others behind were a lap down.

Race was pretty non eventful after that until Mark had his bad luck 2 laps from the end.

Mark D, would have been interesting to see how our respective strategies would have played out if i didnt have my stop and go and you didnt have your pc issues. How many times did you pit? I thought you were one stopping, i made 20+ secs on you long after your pit stop about 3/4 race (before you had you problems 2 laps from end).

Good race all, Grats Zak, Allen and Tristan.
