Wobble box race discussion
I had a great time racing tonight. Told you all it'd be close lol. My race went ok. Race 1 was spent behind XPR Juicy with no way past and rougewilson and PLOW tubbi right behind me in 4th n 5th.
Race 2 was slightly worse for me. Starting near the back, I manage to make a place or two until me and EMW Raul rubbed doors, which slowed me and lost a few places. Managed to claw my way up to 6th.
It was a good laugh tonight and a great atmosphere in A lobby with some good banter and fantastic race standards. Well done to all and bring on Mugello club.

Re: Wobble box race discussion
well despite doing no practice i had a great night, and still managed to have a good few battles, plenty of close racing and some mega close near misses
Re: Wobble box race discussion
Round One was a BELTER!!!
Wow,,some of the closest, cleanest quality racing I have had the pleasure to take part in for some time. Race one was epic, i had i dont know how many laps with myself and Dubs within inches of eachother,,Tubbi managed to squeeze by the pair of us early as we held eachother up a little (nice move tubbi ) and then cleared off, but the scrape with Dubs was classic!!
Then Maddog on a charge closed the gap on us and also done us both,,,think he was cheating though!!! ,lol
Race two say the forward tracl layout which truth be told i had done very little practice for, but again a hard clean scrape to the end,,had a few battles in it but myself and DruggedupDonkey went at it hardcore for about 10-15 laps i think, with the gap being no more than 30-40 feet at worst and at closest i was looking through his car from mines to see the braking points though HIS windscreen!! lol,,
What got me though was the standard of ALL the driving last night. The skill on display was evident and it was a pleasure to be part of it.
Thanks all and I cant wait till round two!!!

I couldn't agree more greg, the standards were brilliant last night.
I had to look through Juicy's car windscreen a few times myself lol.

Re: Wobble box race discussion
WHAT A NIGHT! Had a good battle for a few laps in the first race with Cowboy, ended 10th iirc.
Second race was brilliant, as Greg said we were nose to tail for most of the race, I had a cracking time, i didnt really care too much where i finished, i had a great time.
Roll on next week for more of the same

Favourite part of that race was coming through the first corner side by side with Raul just as you and Karma were coming out the pits, was fun!

Re: Wobble box race discussion
I hadn't run at all on the reverse track until qually so was very pleased to be in A Lobby with the Micra.
Had a great battle with DruggedUpDonkey in the first race. Count Russcular's Agila was certainly very wobbly but was always placed in just the right spot so I couldn't get past. I ended up pushing too hard and clipping the wall on lap 20 which dropped me to 11th for the last couple of laps.
I had actually practiced the forward layout (about 10 laps) so was in good shape for Race 2.
The reverse grid meant I started at the pointy end and the battling through the first third of the race created some epic moments like going around turn one 3 wide. Hit the front just before the pit stop window opened and rang long on the clear track. Exiting the pits Tubbi got the jump on me, he had been closing me down before he stopped, and I couldn't keep pace with Raul or Mad Dog either. 4th in a Micra certainly felt like a win though.
Looking forward to Round 2 already!

Great racing in B lobby last night, Full of spills and thrills.
Had some really nice battles with BadBoy69 and Neilracing.
3 way battle for the lead in race 1 was intense, must've lasted 18 laps.
Great atmosphere aswell last night and the racing on the whole was brilliant. Bring on Mugello!!

I think last night was the most enjoyment ive had on Xbox (not including watching porno dvd's). Really good racing. Even managed to squeeze into A lobby and even took the lead in the second race. Was only for one lap and eventually talent took over and I slipped down to 9th. Looking forward to next round. Really glad I signed onto this website. Cheers lads!

Re: Wobble box race discussion
Yeah it was a good first race Greg was a bit sick at losing a place to Wilson on the last lap of race two but was still a good night. Lower class stuff is more my bag.

That's good to hear Russ. That's the aim, to have such a good clean race that you come away happy with how it went even if you don't win and to know it was fair racing. I was still buzzing the next day lol. Sounds like everyone had a good time. I can't wait for mugello either.
Well done to everyone, race standards were top notch! Keep it up.

Good racing last night.
Some really good battles throughout the field, Shame there was a few lag spikes.

Yeah, I had some top quality racing with Dubs for 2nd at the beginning of race 1. Side by side for most the lap until I messed up and went off.
Lag showed its ugly face last night and ruined the second race for a few people(myself included). It was a free gold member weekend on XBL, couldve been the cause. Let's hope normal connection resume for infineon IRL next monday.

Re: Wobble box race discussion
Had a brilliant race 1, qualified first and was following behind nightmare to trying to get past, it took me untill lap 12 to do so when a little mistake allowed me 2 squeeze through.
Race 2 was mental, I was constantly caught up in a battle with it normally being 3 wide into corners. once that settled down abit I made a HUGE mistake, locked up the brakes and gave Bad Boy a really heavy shunt, SORRY! From then on I battled with TJSteel & Count Russcular till the end while Glimmer came storming past me after an earlier incident. Looking forward to Motegi!

Re: Wobble box race discussion
race 1 was a bit of a parade for me, was looking good to make up a couple of places then picked up some damage which killed my top speed
race 2 i was leading for the first third, struggling to keep rougewilson78 behind me, but thinking i could potentially be on for my first A lobby win, only do see EMW Raul pip me on his pitstop and disappear into the distance...
ended up 3rd which could possibly be my first A lobby podium!
