Only just got my qualie lap in before the session finished, and wasn't entirely sure how I managed it given my previous lap-times.

Got a good start, but had Spyros on my tail for the opening few laps, and eventually I decided to let him through, as having a battle was just going to slow us both down, and the c3 was definitely the quicker race car around here. My fears about the c2 came true towards the end of the first stint as I managed to spin the car twice. This let Glyn through, and once the stops were done I eased off a bit and just aimed to finish without incident! T'was a very difficult race!

Well done Spyros and Glyn on 1st and 2nd, and thanks to Jon for running these events.

No worries joco, no harm done! Just saw you at the last second and tried to steer away!

Had a good race and went much faster than in practise/qualie. My pit-stop went well apart from short-fuelling! This is why I got out ahead of Reinhard. (But only just!) He was much faster but the c2 just had enough on the straights to stay ahead. A couple of laps to go, I realised I was low on fuel, so I moved over to let Reinhard through. unfortunately he must've followed me, so when I slowed down he spun me round. I stalled the engine so lost a lot of time, and Reinhard waited on me, but I was trying to tell him just to go by flashing my lights! In the end I couldn't do any more to save fuel, another 1l would have been enough! Many thanks to Norman and Jon for helping me get across the line, stuff like that makes you realize you're racing with the right guys. Also, thanks to Reinhard for showing a lot of fairness, it wasn't your fault as I should've let you through at a better spot. (Or put more fuel in!)

Thanks for organising Jon, and congrats Reinhard, glyn and joco on their podiums.

Had an ok run last night, no major driving mistakes to speak of but I made a bad tyre choice, which affected my pace a bit. (best race lap was quite a bit off my qualie lap) Still, I wasn't expecting to compete with the C3's, so it was a good result to get a podium. Had a very slow pit-stop; mainly due to me not being sure where my pit crew were going to be!- so I ended up behind Frans. Unfortunately he spun out, so I was able to drive safely to the end without any dramas.

Quite enjoying these cars, not getting as much practise as I want (working out which tyres to use seems to be my down-point!) but I think i'll be better prepared for the next one. Well done to Mike & Joco- looked like a great race you had there, and well done to all finishers on a tricky car and track combo.

Unlucky mike, we all got the message 'mike Miller left the game' so I had no idea where you would be on track. I guess that's why Tim won't merge the results. Did you see any other cars around you?

Made an OK start, but mike went off like a scalded cat. After his disco, I had Reinhard close behind but then saw he spun exiting turn 1 soon after. From then on, I looked after the tyres as best I could, and tried to maintain the gap I had built up. (Which became tricky when the family popped in for a conversation!) Pit stop went OK apart from forgetting to select 1st, and the next half of the race was again about consolidation, staying out of trouble, and managing traffic. I have to say the lapped cars did a great job- even ones recovering from off-track excursions were always fully aware of approaching traffic, top stuff. I didn't make many big mistakes but still didn't want to push 100% as I knew the c2 could come back to bite you, so I was happy to nurse the car home.

Thanks to Jon for setting this up, and well done spyros and janco on their podiums. Unlucky mike, you deserved to win this one.

Nice videos guys, great effort!

Had a good race, was disappointed not to break into the 49's in qualie, but traffic will always be an issue at a track like this. I know the circuit quite well so cobbled together a setup in practise and had a good run in the race with only minor mistakes. Congrats to Felipe & Umberto on their podiums.

Cheers all.
