    Love the track. It's extremely quick and difficult at the same time.
    Would have loved to finish the race, but it didn't happen. The car was already a little bit damaged. I pushed too hard braking for the last hairpin in sector 3 and hit the fence on the right. Now I promised myself to take it easy and survive, but I had to push when the light went green haha.

    Saw a lot of steering wheels off-center as I watched the rest of the race. That must have been even more difficult on this track.

    Thank you all for supporting this special event and grats to Phil Brown for winning it!

    Thank you for organizing what was an excellent venue and car. Would love to do a series on a similar combination and can i say having raced a lot on other well known host sites it is a pleasure to race against grown up respectful drivers who don't try to pass you regardless of outcome. Thanks to everyone who took part. I practiced for hours but was unable to keep pace with Phil Brown who continued to eek out around a second a lap. At one point towards the end i was gaining three seconds a lap and then it stopped. I guess he was just taking a rest!

    No, he didn't take a rest. As I was watching the race from the side-line, I saw that his steering wheel was pretty much off-center in the last part of the race. That slowed him down.
    You did pretty good. Only 18 seconds behind him at the finish.

    I would love to do a series with this car, but I don't want to run more than 1 series at the time for now. And I'm doing the rFactor 2 DTM 1991 series in September and then the rFactor 2 Nascar Xfinity 2018 series after that.

    Congratulations to Phil, Stephen and Eddie for scoring the podium places. Well done.
    My decision to stand down thanks to vision problems was undoubtedly the correct thing to do. Things are improving.
    Having missed the event, I'm at least somewhat gratified to see from the results that my lap times weren't complete trash. I cut 2m11.966s effort in pre-race trials which is only about 3-3/4s off the best seen. That's only 3% off the best. For me, that's dynamite! :)
