    That was Johnnys win. Great start and pace throughout, still doing 19s after several laps.
    Thought you'd not put race fuel in when you pulled over until I read the chat message.

    great race last night, albeit frustrated at the end when i lost a podium place.
    Had really good pace for the first 10-15mins keeping glued to the back of Ballis Ferrari in a fight for 3rd whilst edging a decent gap over the following pack, which was +8 secs at one point. But then my braking started getting horrible at the bus stop chicane and two laps on the trot i lost a heap of time there over-shooting, which allowed Balli to scamper off and Bill to close me down. I increased my ABS and TC one notch to compensate as the car was becoming a handful. Really strange as it was rock solid in the endurance race the other night here. I did notice my tyres were all showing a strong hint of yellow...is that graining? Guess track temps were higher than the night event, but pressures were all good.
    Anyway, Bills Bentley kept bearing down on me lap after lap, especially in the flat out sections, like a train! and i was really feeling the pressure and struggling to stay ahead. With only a few laps to go he got a great run up the Kemmel straight and i went defensive to cover off the inside for Les Combes, but he pulled a great out-braking manouvre on the outside by letting off the brake after his initial slowing. We went through Les Combes side by side but i had to concede the following corner and knew that was that once his quicker car was in front. I was gutted to lose 3rd but impressed with the move! Bill deserved the spot with good pace. Finished a still decent 4th. :)

    Shame the turnout had dropped, whats going on here lately, seems big drop offs in all events on SRO, grids about a third of the previous season :(

    Congrats to winner of the race and to all finishers!
    Sorry about leaving like that. My house is getting stucco put on the walls and some of these guys are just showing up out of the blue to work on the house. I guess it happens. I kind of knew this would happen.

    I still had fun. Mission accomplished.
    Cheers.

    Just watched the fantastic replay on Youtube, great camera work and commentary :cool: really captures the action!

    Replay also told me two things, the Astons were struggling with their tyres after 20mins and the Bentley was the car to have at Spa :p

    Im not sure what nr 1 means ! :D ..But yes ACC has a learning curve . it almost like you have to go slow to be fast ! over driving the car for even short spurts will result in some hard driving ! ;)
