Yep, and here comes another one, just 2 months after the first.

American Muscle series, a 4th and three 3rd's helped guide me to another Driver's Title when Leo Rocha couldn't make it to the last event. Had to finish 4th, and managed to come home 3rd.

Drove the Camaro 3 times, and the Charger in the last event. Magny Cours was my strongest form - setting race quickest lap and Qualifying 2nd, I made 1 mistake that race losing 7 seconds yet only finished 3rd by 3 seconds.

I really enjoy these cars (Race On add on for Race 07). And this season I definitely found an improvement in consistent pace compared to previous outings, and that's all down to working on the set up and fathoming how to drive these cars quickly. Strangely enough, knowledge of ARCA stock car tweaks also helped improve my speed!!!

I've been told by my team-mates (or one, Mr Virt to be precise!) not to write a diatribe, so instead I've done what I did for my 100th event - a montage of shots from events 101 to 200. Race 200 was the nGTx (Euro) S19 GTR2 race today, leading quite a few laps (strategy, not speed!!) and finishing 6th from 8th on the grid.

Basic stats:-

200 races.
20,076 miles (average just over 100 miles per event).
3 wins (2 of those between races 101 and 200).
16 other podiums.
1 year and 6 months to reach no.200, it took 1 year and 2 months to reach 100.

Left click on the image to take you to my Flickr page for this image, then on Flickr 'right click' and choose to view it in "large" - you get a better effect then:)

Enjoy!

PS - there - I've still written a long winded intro, I can't help myself (LOL)!!

200th Race2Play race completed!
