Quality race, made a few seriously annoying errors though. Last lap was intense, was right behind rittman til I lost it on the corkscrew.

Was a good race

i lost it on that tight left hander on about the 2nd lap and did 8 laps on a puncture, then i saw jamie was catching so i decided to pit..

i got 116k for that race along with 45k exp. lol

The grip levels on that track are so much different from others, the dirt seemed to last far too long on the tyres on this track for some reason which caused me to spin out at least 5 times.

Oh well.

I think we need to announce when races will be at the start when the track is announced. I wouldn't have bothered practicing at all / tweaking the setup if I had known I wouldn't be racing in it.

I'm sure when this thread originally went up it said race would happen at 9-9:30 after TG.

Was a great race tonight, I thought oh ffs not again as at the end of the first lap I threw my self into the wall and had to pit, which put me down to 12th

, put my head down and did some consistant laps and caught up pretty quickly.

Passed most people with ease until I caught Chris lol, was good fun

seaonal bonus races is fastest way of leveling up and getting money.

Nah you don't need them, only if you want to complete the game but no races etc require them.

the licence tests do actually help you learn how to take some corners i would rather they were there than not.

Good track that, we did some MX5 racing there before and it felt good.
