Skoda: Hitchin #2

Congrats again to podium. Well done Chiva with a double strike.

In my second race I started from one of the last rows because of my early accident in race 1, so I really didn't expect to finish in top 10 as passing in this track is so difficult.

But I was more surprised to see Barney coming from behind as a lightening, and cleanly taking my place as soon as I let an open door in a fast turn.

After I passed teammate Carlos and things settled down in the front with some clean air, the battle was to keep Robert behind for almost the whole race. He paired twice trying to pass, at times we were so close that slight taps where unavoidable but luckily I could control the car, in the end I managed to keep my position until the checkered flag. Sorry to see that in the last lap he crashed against the inside wall when making a final effort to get the position, luckily he didn't loose any places.

Tough race that required a lot of concentration on this narrow track to avoid the walls, satisfied with second result and sad for the first one.

Cheers.

After staying up till about 2:30 this morning, I've managed to increase my FPS from about 7 at the starts to around 13, by increasing the page file and turning off VSync. So, I'm somewhat happy...lets see what happens online :P

Well done to Alfredo, 2 wins in a row!

At the start of Race 2 I had an enormous 5-10 second freeze, which dropped me back to last place. I wasn't happy, and set about returning to a decent position. Yet again, a freeze at the Market Place put me into retirement - simply because I couldn't handle it anymore. It was driving me mad! :(

Started almost last due to the earlier race. I knew I could run ok, but that one driver who could keep their car in the right place with no errors could easily stop me passing.

...And that driver was Francisco. From lap 5 to the end I was stuck to his rear bumper (sometimes harder than others lol), but nothing I tried could force an error. Really impressive driving Francisco, I was really pushing you hard but nothing came of it at all.

On the last lap I realised that we were the last non-lapped drivers so I took a shot down the inside of the corner off the cobbles with nothing to lose...but just steered the car a little too tight and hit the inside of the corner and span it on the barrier. Good racing, that easily made up for the lack of action in the first race!

Very well done to Chiva 2 out of 2 bravo!

Race 1 Oh Dear!

Race 2
good clean start for me kept out of trouble "for a change ;)" I was right behind a couple of cars on the final turn the guy in front of us clipped the the inside wall which caused a bit of a pile up I think all concerned were able to continue :)) all be it with some damage had some great battles as I did last week fair racing from all many thanks

Even 1 of my team mates did not give the place he made me earn it Well Done Klaus Mayer really enjoyed the fight

Francisco Gutierrez thanks for the room, sometimes it can all go wrong and very easily could have on this track :)

Great series Pablo I really enjoy it and a great fight near the end i think your extra weight allowed me to get past

Richard, this race was indeed fun trying to not to make any mistakes though you were pushing my nerves to the limit. Guess I've learnt to deal with it during my races here at R2P because you can trust all the drivers around you and be sure they will race clean but hard. That's a plus.

Barney, I can assure you I didn't mean to let that door open :) You just saw the gap and went for it, and I'm glad to say it was impressively clean and fast after watching the replay.

Cheers.
