Estoril Open

I'm really sorry J. Van D... I was tryiong to beat Barry on the straight and was looking at him and I brake too late and I hit you and spun you around. I went to serve my penalty and after half way I let you by... My only mistake, but costly for you and me... Sorry m8! :(

Grats 1-2-3-4! :) And G.Pole for nGT win.

I've run out of talent pills many, many moons ago but I do like to race for the team points.

yes I was very surprised that you hit me Gonzalez. You where so far away. But I made 2 many mistakes in the race to do anything good anyway. Still I'm learning a lot about the 360 that I can use in my own league in a few months ;)

Yes, it was my stupid mistake...sorry m8...I haven;t had an issue in T-1 in a long time and this is the first in this series...Apologies..

Rather straightforward this time. I was able to build a gap to Pete even though in the first 10 laps I was saving a little fuel to be sure of being able to 1-stop. I think in the end it wasn't necessary.

Congrats to George, and I like the sight of that 1-2-3-4 in G2. :)

Qualified 4th in class, 1s slower than i should`ve been again :P

Race went to plan apart from some serious pressure for most of it due to Adrian just waiting to pounce until i made my stop a later than him, i thought he`d nailed it tbh - he was obviously a bit quicker, but when i made mine i only topped up the fuel from running a full tank in the first stint (which would lead me to worrying until the flag as to wether i had put enough in) then i came out and jumped him and Claudio! and was running 2nd in class until i let Claudio get to close through conserving fuel and i had a lock up (only mistake of the race) and he willingly took it :P Also had a bad time on worn rears for the first stint they went off so quick, i pitted earlier than planned because i thought a puncture was imminent.

Another lesson learnt in GTR. I love the fact it doesn`t matter haw fast you are, if you`re not quick thinking in the race strategically then it`s pretty useless.

Qualified 9th & had a few battles early on in the race but then settled down to running reasonably consistent times until the fronts went off with about 8 laps till my first stop.Pitted which went without any hitches & came back out in I think 7th overrall.About 10 laps from the end had to go into fuel conservation mode & ended up 5th in class with .6 litres left as I crossed the line.Lot of fun on a track that I personally find difficult.Cya next time.

you guys are lucky I woke up late, lol. The Biturbo loves this track.

BTW...I had to quit, cause I thought I wasn't going to make the other event...I'm glad I did, otherwise I would have probably not enter the other one, but I had to sacrifice and get a DNF... :S

David Brown said "...i thought he`d nailed it tbh".
Not really David because 4-th place in the Sports Car is the best result for me till now.
I've been stuck behind Brian Fairley, unexpected slow, for many laps, in both stints. Then during three laps I was trying desperately to obtain approval for pit stop and I lost 7s paying attention to the pit stop answer and looking at the fuel level (only 0,3l left). My pit stop was 26s longer than yours (I misjudged the fuel for the first stint) and by the end I managed to recover about 14s. So I’m very happy with 4-th place now. Maybe the time will came to put a real pressure on you and to claim your place :D.
