Adelaide 150k

sorry to the leader, man these aree even harder than Rfactor to drive. Sorry again, time to get me a new car :)

One of the coolest races to watch over. The lead cars (3 of them) were nose to tail the entire distance of the race. Tons of great racing through out the field too!

I must say guys, this was a great showing. A street course race without a single wreck in the opening laps. Everyone did such a fantastic job.

i finished 12th , it posted as 13th :( pretty lame to drive a whole race and finish and be put back one spot.

Well I was told to run a full tank from the start & genius me didn't.After qualifying a surprising 3rd in my first GTR2 race I then proceeded to blow any chance by having to take both fuel & tyres at the pitstop-what a noob.Anywho finished 6th,shouldn't complain.

Came home just in time for Qual. Didnt do any praccy, but on 3rd lap i had a time around pole, but a spin out of last corner didnt help. :P

Race started OK had a nice pace, but then overtaking one of Fords, i was infront already, he didnt even try to alter his speed coming to that corner, he pushed me into wall, car got DMG and i had to pit on lap 16 to repair the car. Also that ment i had to have 2nd set of tires for 30 laps and i knew it was all lost. Got some nice laps in while i was alone, but tires went dead after 20 laps, so just drove carefully to finish in 5th after Darrens 2nd pit?

Grats podium.

Congrats to the podium.

Firstable, as Riley says, I think he was 12th (it wasn't me for sure), 'cause I ended up with an unexpected 13th position after a race were I was really slow, but some people DNFshed and that gave me the chance to climb up some spots.

Only had to fight with Ronan a few times, all the other drivers were much faster than me.

See you next race.

This was the most cracking race ever!

Got pole in qual and was pretty satisfied with the time. Janko seemed to have some problems... :P

I didn't repeat the awesome start in S5 I think, where I went from 3rd to lead! Still it was an avarage start and nobody took my spot. The first few laps nothing big happened really was trying to keep up and run away from Kevin but he was closely behind all the time. Kevin managed to overtake me and Darren was very close behind so I was under pressure all the time.

After pit stop Darren was ahead of me and he had a better pace. Kevin spun giving me the second. After that the pressure was not as big with Matthias was 3.5s were behind. Made a few mistakes and Kevin was under my wing. Well it didn't do him much good as he spun later on and I was second. Soon after that Darren spun also so Kevin and me were 1-2 after that. On that straight(on pic) he just managed to get ahead of my front bumper but didn't slow down enough and I got the position back.

I was on the lead and pressure was very high with 3 as fast drivers behind. It was insane, we were all inches apart and almost got 3-wide. Nobody made a mistake and it was extremely intense and clean racing. The last few laps seemed to take more time than the whole race but I managed to keep 1st!

Amazing race, grats all especially Darren, Kevin and Matthias for epic racing!

This could have been so great for me.... boo hoooo....
Game crashed in quali, quick restart, back in, one hot lap, 5th.
At the start held position and then got a chance to pass Steve into the hairpin. Then Matthias had some trouble and I moved up to 3rd chasing Kevin and Joco. Kevin was the faster at this point and I just held on as he pressured Joco for the lead. I closed up to them eventually and then Kevin passed Joco and I started to apply some pressure. Once into the hairpin I got inside and we banged doors through the apex but Joco held on. I was last of the top 3 to pit and I had a good one and came out ahead of Joco in 2nd. Had to fight him off for a lap as my tyres warmed up but then I was able to go after Kevin. I was closing gradually but Kevin unfortunately tangled with a back marker and I took the lead.
I was cruising comfortably and had the lead out to 10 or 11 seconds when I came through the first chicane behind a slower car. He had some damage which meant he couldn't move out of the way quickly enough and it caught me by surprise. I tapped his rear and missed my braking point, went into the wall and got a puncture. Cue lots of screaming and slapping of self in the head.
Car wouldn't turn after that so I had to get it repaired, but I screwed that up too and came out with the same damage!
So I dropped to 8th in the end.
Great racing with Joco and Kevin in particular, was nearly my best race ever...nearly:-(
Grats to all you guys on the podium for a great race.

congrats to podium .. Unlucky to Darren :(

This was a very intense race.. I had a killer battle with Steve Davis for the first stint.. It was quite a task as Steve was changing lines alot, borderline weaving in some places.. I was watching jankos battle behind me with great interest as there seemed to be alot of tussling between him and Dan or Ali, who i think was suppose to serve a drive through for punting somone at first chicane on L1 but i didnt see anything taken or given ...

I was hoping Steve was going to have a longer pit than me and did so i claimed 5th and just tried to keep a nice gap to janko...

Tyres wear beyond raped after this race.

Cheers

What an incredible race. Got a great run in qual and got 2nd and stayed there for the start. I kept hounding Joco and he was solid. Finally was able to get a run to the hairpin and got the lead.

Made my pit stop and shuffled back to 1st and it was looking good. Darren was catching up and that would of been a great battle, but then for some freaky reason, Ali's car was invisible in-front of me. I saw some smoke and tire mark appear from no where and when I got to the exit of the last turn, I was about to hit tab to see if something was there, but I ended up hitting him and then I saw him. That was weird but there was nothing that could be done.

After that happened, I fell down to 4th and was fighting hard to catch Popp. Took some time, but I was able to get him in the hairpin. Then I set my sight on Joco. Kept gaining and gaining. Then I see a blue car up ahead and I thought it was a lapped car. Ended up being Darren who got a flat tire. I got a crazy run when Joco tried to go inside of Darren, so i tried to go high and get them both, but Darren's car couldn't hold the line so I had to back off and wait for another opportunity.

Me and Joco started battling and before we knew it, Matthias made it a 3 way battle for 1st place. At this point it's pretty much better to check the replay hehehe.

Congrats to Joco on fending off so many attacks and to Matthias who just patiently stalked us and waited for mistakes. That was one hell of a race. Great job. And what a shame to Darren. You had the race sealed. Sorry man.

p.s. I think we should have a V8 at Adelaide series hehehe.
