Race report
Fuji LMS on Mar 06, 2010
Car: Aston Martin DBR9. Class: GT1. Start: 6. Finish: 3. Laps: 54.

A fine event , enjoyed the multi-class racing once again and this format with 2 types of prototypes and 1 type of GT cars works perfectly imo , hardly ever a dull moment in the track :).

Had a good race early on with Jose which lasted several laps , then got by him at T1 and tried to catch the leading trio but my pace wasn't quite there to make any ground. Didn't give up thou because the almost constant traffic can change things quite fast and also the consistency and the strategy can make a difference.

After Paul got into trouble i got the 3rd place and held on to it to the end , unfortunately i was a bit over optimistic about the tire wear and had to change my strategy during the race but it was looking like Zak and Conor were too quick anyways so it probably didn't change the end result :).

Racing in the traffic was exciting and all in all i think it went pretty well , there were few tight situations and once i got pushed into a spin but these things happen. I left the braking a bit late , running a bit wide on that tight 1st gear corner after the 'back stretch' and the P2-car behind me took it as an invitation to pass and we had a contact which spun me around but like i said ,contacts happen and i just got the short end of the stick this time so no worries ;).

Good race overall and a successful test for my new hardware , just bought a new graphic card and it was awesome to run the race with all the graphics maxed out and still getting about 200FPS average :D.

Congratulations to Matthew , Mike and Zak for the class wins and cheers to the rest of the podium finishers also.

Cya around...
