Mills Metro Park F3

Once again I didn't qualify as well but had great race pace! I made a poor start because my first gear was too long even tho I didn't use it for anything but the start. Silly mistake. Made my move on Janos halfway thru the race. Got close to Zak and made a mistake. Next lap Zak finds a lap car he's having a lot of trouble with. Zak gets a half spin and I'm by. I eased off a little for lapcars turning around in front of other lapcars creating potential accidents. Zak closed up on me so I put in two decent laps at the end of the race to open up the gap and take the win.

Tough luck Zak!
That was good stuff with Janos and Zak at the start of the race! :)

I have no idea how I came away with a 5th place finish, but I'm delighted to have done so!

Found myself running 5th early on, but lost a few seconds when Paulo sent me into a gentle spin at the hairpin. To his great credit, he waited for me to get back on track and retake the position, so that's the end of the matter as far as I'm concerned.

A couple of laps later I had a more worring moment when my PC decided I'd much rather have a look at my desktop! Thankfully, it happened at the slowest part of the circuit, so I was able to continue without receiving any damage.

After that I was ready for a gentle drive to the flag, but Carl had other ideas. Great battle as always, and could have gone either way, really.

Great start to the series, with healthy grids and a smattering of aliens. Looking forward to next week's race already! :)
