Oschersleben SuperCup

nice fun racing as usual with the pig
sorry to Diduck for the pass early in the race .. it wasn't as clean as I would've liked .. but at least I didn't put much of a fight when you caught me again :)

Congrats Claus, George and everyone who finished. Good racing, specially first few laps. What i don't get is how i lost nearly 30secs in pits. I thought i made a regular stop, pitted for 20laps of fuel and medium tyres taking around 50secs it was. No mishaps or anything. Did you front guys use some harder tyres as i was running medium and they were completely wrecked at around 20laps..

The only problem i had was when behind Mark Wicks i got a few lag spikes were your car stayed in a spot for a few seconds and then shot off again.

Congrats again CJ, and the rest of the podium.
Had a bum race, and humble humble apologies to Miguel. MdR, I spun you out in the first right hander after the straight, it was an honest mistake, and I apologise profusely. You car was jumping around a bit, and I misjudged the gap. Didn't feel anything, but my mistake. Sorry.
Anyway, ended up pitting twice, like a doofus! ended up in the pitlane by mistake after a slight miscalculation, pitted anyway, and didn't put enough fuel .... TOH!!!!!
Next time.
Thanx to everyone for moving over so sharp, and to Pete for letting me through, even though it was in vain, I had to pit. And to Daniel on your first race, well done, you were a scholar and a gentleman!
And if I upset anyones lines ... I'll understand when you get me back at the next one ... ;-)

Sheez, another duplicate post. edited and changed to this.
Sam, for what it's worth I also ran mediums, and the second set for about 30 laps. Now THEY were cooked!
Cheers

I was really looking forward to this event. About 7 mins into qualifying, my game froze up, and by the time I rebooted my PC, qualifying was over and I couldn't rejoin.
Frustrating.

Well I'm chuffed to bits. Couldn't get into game to Qualy until 5 mins before end. Had been toying with the idea of doing a NIL stopper and driving all way through on Mediums. Qualy temp was way high, but race temp looked good for that. So way back in last on grid, nothing to lose - went for it. And P3 in G3. I'm really really chuffed to bits.

Got spun by someone in early stages by a dodgy manouvre (checked that out on replay and it was! - and left me with one none working brake light to boot!!), but tried to keep my nose clean. Silly half spin by myself with around 20 laps left. My pitcrew warned me with tyres worn message with what turned out to be 3 laps left, so took it easy. Just managed to keep ahead of Viper by less than a second at the end!!

Thanks guys - and when Mr Bunce lapped me tried to keep with him to see the master at work. Didn't do too bad for a couple of laps!! Pity about the other 40 odd!!

Sorry Garret for the last lap. I'm such stupid! I have absolutely lost my mind and forgot, that we are going in different classes.

I want to congratulate all the guy's on the podium and all the other finishers for that matter... Sorry for the guy's who didn't made it too the end.

Well I was really nervous at the start as I didn't know what was going to happen and couldn't see the start lights so had to react to the guys in front of me. Kept it easy on lap 1 and started slowly going faster. Made some silly mistakes and also had to let a lot of people past who where overtaking me. Hope I didn't cause too much problems for them.

It also felt strange to push Adrian over the line, hope it helped you as the server wanted me too do that.

Happy to make it too the finish, and now on to the next event.

Manage to nab pole from Pete in my final attempt! come race start he just managed to slip in front of me which was a bit of a nuisance as he wasn`t stopping and he kept good lines to keep me behind, managed to finally slip down the inside of him at turn 1 and he was wise enough to give me room (thx) then i held it for a few laps but by then my medium rears were going off, and i half lost it at turn 3 as the back lost traction and i ended up 90 degrees to the track and pete had no option other that tapping me (sorry) lost 5s in that, got back up to speed and pitted with 20 mins to go as i needed to have as much life in my 2nd set of tyres. Arrived at my pitstop and Danny was in my slot - or so it seemed, i had no other guy showing in the pitlane so i sat behind and waited but when he pulled away never never moved and as i drove up they did feck all and i ended up running out of fuel :(

Nice race on this Mickey Mouse track. Too bad the turn out was not as expected. Had a bad start and Claudiu got into 3rd place. Then we had some close racing with Sam for serveral laps until Claudiu ran full into a G3 that had spun. Later on I managed to pass Sam and I was about 12 secs behind Claus. That almost stayed the same after the stop.
And Sam ... you wrote you took 20 laps of fuel. I think there's the difference. I started with 100L so a only needed a few liters to finish and I guess Claus did the same. One set of tyres was not possible imho so I also took a new set of med/med. Grats to Claus and Sam for sharing the champagne and to Pete and the rest of the G3-podium. I believe the G3's did a great job with all those nasty G2's around. :-)
