GTX Dubai

Got hit in first turn by a spinning car, tried to rejoin and I was sure everyone passed but I was wrong so I drove directly in front of Paul... sorry for that, luckily it was not a big hit. I DNF's myself to save time to the race stewards.

Well that sucks, I have an 11 second lead and am pulling away every lap. DISCO! Shit I would rather crash and limp around for the finish.

I guess I shouldn't be running Euro events, at least not until they are run on a Euro server.

What little bit I did run was full of little hicups in the connection.

Never got through the GTR2 lobby :-(
What ISP do the rest of you UK guys use, 'cos I've gotta figure all these noco's (4 in as many weeks) are my end.

EDIT by TM: Whether or not the stewards see or do anything about on track incidents are beside the point now. Anything that is done by the stewards is done privately.

A very zzzzzzzzzzzz race...nothing to much to say but 7 times cars dissapearing for more then 5 secs each time.

My timing screen went bonkers from the start...i had no lap times shown, no gaps to car in front nor back (for the entire race)...only thing that worked was my position shown (4th) and i was supposedly 43 laps down lol

...i did have to make a 2nd to last lap splash and dash for fuel.

Not sure if i'll do the next Enduro but we'll see.

oh yes, sry for slightest tap on a lambo at T1..i think he wanted to avoid the collisions in front of him and swerved slightly into my path.

Actually i would prefer a lonely race rather than this, couldnt count but i was rammed 4 times in first lap . 1 of them was completely heavy from back and i lost control and went outside of the track. I m glad Dubai has too much run-off areas. After that hit, i lost 10 positions. My luck my car not damaged too much and i decided to continue the race. I started to gain the positions i lost; and these times, some contacts occured with other drivers but i think none of them were damage causing contacts. Before pit-stop i reached 5th positions and i was behind Grecian. He pitted 1 lap before me. I didnt have too much pit experince on that track and i really made a noobish mistake while entering, dunno who was he but some1 was entering pits in front of me and while he was slowing to pit i hit him from back. Im completely sorry for this, completely my fault. After pits i seen that Grecian gained 4 seconds with pit stops. I increased my speed after pit-stop, i was decreasing gap with him every lap. While trying to catch him i made fastest lap of the race. After some lapping i caught him and started to force him and he went wide in a corner, i dived inside but he came inside and tried to close the door i think, and a contact happened again and he lost times there, srry mate if it was my mistake :/. I finished the race in 3rd place and really happy with that.

np dude..i know ur fair diriver :) ..also the view from the Lambo cackpit is very small so i couldnt see you there :D

Firstly, I apologise for wiping out the turn markers for turn 9 by lap 3 - I made a dumb error and ran wide there.

For me this was a very clean racing experience. I saw the carnage on the first lap, cut across in front of Bob Fay after that (sorry), but from then on it was clean close racing in the first stint. I had some fun battles with Michael Cash and Kev Lock, and both of them got past me in the end. Just as I got passed by Kev I managed to spin onto the front straight and remove the front of my car. The tyre wear on the Saleen was very heavy and the car had very little traction by the second half of the first stint. Luckily I was in the pit window and the damage was fixable, although I lost a little over a minute due to that incident.

After the stop I saw that I was 17 seconds behind 12th place. I just tried to run consistent laps and conserve the tyres. I caught Omar with a few laps to go and had some fun laps battling with him, and got by when he ran wide.

Congratulations to the podium, and thanks for a fun race. I am still waiting for my first race where I finish ahead of my quali position, not including people who are disconnected ...

wow tough one,choppy frames around some of the cars especially around pits ,q very hard lots of cars and not much room ,thought i had a good start but a lambo came thru which made the 1st turn interesting,luckily managed to miss spinning car and just tried to settle which was hard because of the dodgems in front lol.lost frames near pits and that threw me and i never settled after that,so decided to pit early,came back out in 10th but knew some hadnt pitted,so just tried to keep it on track ,got into trouble with lappers and lost a bit of time and got pegged for 5th,by the time they came by i had no tyres left so happy to finish :-)

I had a good race and some great battles, except at the beginning, I was pushed to the outside by a Maserrati going to T1 (but this was totally racing incident :)), then the red Ferrari of Roman Jamsek punted me off and a few laps later he went of track, but rejoined right in front of me, then I was passing a "yellow Ferrari" we were side-by-side and chopped me off at the end of the turn, I had better acceleration coming out of the turn and we touched...Great battle with L.Ho, very clean ! Thanks all !

Cya next time !
