GTx: Hockenheim

Testing my abilities as a Steward today?

- 1 driver dropped 2 laps for unserved punt penalties
- 1 driver kicked for unsafe re-entry
- 1 driver kicked for unsportsmanlike conduct (flaming in chat)
- 1 drive through for unsportsmanlike conduct (very unnecessary contact with another car)

We do have rules in place and when those are not followed I have no choice but to take action.

I had to say something otherwise I would have exploded.
Second race today ruined at the pit area.
Damn it.
Wasn't Mark's fault but he lost it there at the pit exit and I couldn't do anything and just crashed my car into his. Blew any chance of me going for a good result. And I lost it a few seconds after with that line.
I know rules are rules but this was too harsh of you.
Cheers and congrats to who ever wins it.

Had a great start from... 6th or 7th?

With all the 550 battling each other i was 2nd soon, but it was just not possible for me to keep 550s behind my Vette at that long straight...

Happy to finish 3rd, few more laps maybe i could catch Kent, but overtaking is another story anyway :)

Much better finish. Almost was going to take 8th, but I cut and hand a stop n go.

Another frustrating disco.
Grats to podium.

Qualified a poor 16th, from the start made a few positions to 12th then some dude in a black Lambo took me straight out and when i got back on track was dead last with about 10sec to next driver, made my way up to 12th again after 2 stops and were cruising home and then BANG, my finger slipped on my gear down button and engine in flames! Grats to podium!

Saturday, bloody Saturday.

Not enough practice , no result.

Boring race except the 1st corner where i almost took Heinz out but he saved it ,did my best to avoid a secondary contact and lost a handful of positions there at the same time. Got few back after some typical 1st lap excitement but from there on it was just another day in the office,'pay by hour' -driving and nothing much to tell back home LOL.

Boring 7th place after boring drive , wasn't exactly on fire there ... ;D

Congrats to CJ , Kent and Janko , the regular podium finishers ;).

Cya in the next one...

Congrats to the top!
Fun race for me, pleased to finish in the top half ;p

I slept for 14 hours and woke up 15 minutes before Q! I couldn't handle all that power for the first 45 minutes or so, but I didn't make any large mistakes. I had to conserve fuel for the last 15 laps and you almost got me BK but luckily I had just enough!

Good race see you next time.

Grats to Podium, and claus for that new lap record .. blistering!

I was convinced the c5 was going as fast as it could go when in free prac with 1m35.2's and janko was doing 1m35 flats. then janko pumped a 1m34 flat and i thought no way! my response with a 1m34.7 was as good as it could get, happy with my time..

start was ok, was tapped from behind by Sam K. but i managed to save it so no worries sam, was just trying to avoid a collision with Kieron peace at T1 who had the inside line, may have slowed me up a little bit, or Sam was going in too hot, didnt matter since my race didnt end.

Then had some interesting moments with Mark C, Kieron P and George P. on the opening few laps, but after George closed the door on me at the hairpin to block a pass move, i was on the curbs and the car wouldn't pull away quick enough so george pulled away..

Was doing well i thought for the next few laps, but Mark C. pulled a cheecky pass on me, i lost a position to him getting out his way after he locked up and almost took me out, so while i was on the outside recovering a bad line and on dirty part of the track he took advantage and took the track position ... few laps later then saw george had lost it in T1, and the there was a huge mess at the hairpin and Pablo G was on his roof in the gravel, looks like some contact with Darren A.

Unlucky for darren on the disco at pitstops :(

Then it looks like Mark M had the same pitstall as me, when i left, i saw him waiting to pit :(

Was happy to come away with 5th, after george in 2nd stint closed a HUGE gap to me, and we fought hard for the last 2 laps.. though george's attempts came from too far out, and just never had the line at the apex :) both attemps didnt go well for george lol.. but it was good racing

Grats to finishers
