nice report chief,,,as you can imagine am more looking forward to the second race,,lol

I wonder why!? xD Hopefully the capture card will be with me tomorrow!

Nice report bud A+

Very good Haydo
I had a good 1 race, 2 race it was starting to lak so i brake and tryed to stay away from the field to avoid a lakcrash

Dk

Awesome stuff mate

Have to say though,,,last niights round was one of the fastest and hardest I have had the pleasure of taking part in a long time.

The first round was ace. Even though i actually finished last i still had to go like a nutter just to stay with the pack! The pace that was on show by all was impressive to say the least. Think everyones laptimes were within .3 of a second off eachother at worst and as a result the race was very good.

Second round I got to start off at the front, and managed to pull a slight gap on the field, with Ranger being the only one who had the speed to bridge the gap. I held him off till I took my pit around lap 6 or so, but I was way to slow going in as I feared a pit fault, but as a result I gifted Ranger about 150ft track time and handed the first position to him.

However, the last laps were epic. I felt very comfortable with the car and pushed as hard as I could, closed up slightly on him before the finish but Ranger held his speed as well and took a deserved 1st position,,,well done chief!!

I loved the first round of the RCV`s,,,these are brill cars to drive and am thinking this series is gonna be bloody hard fought. Everyone was showing blinding pace and anyone of the A lobby field given the right track placement could easily take the win...

Cant wait for next week at Atlanta

Greg

I had a really enjoyable night, gutted I couldn't get a better qualifying lap

First race fell victim to a lag bomb from GFM Liam putting me to the back, but i really enjoyed catching up and passing a few before the end, which isn't always easy at Mugello!

Second race i managed to get an early lead, but had to concede to UK Dub's pace when he caught me up

Love the car, it's the only thing i've really got to grips with on the wheel, and loving it

UPDATED WITH QUALIFICATION
Bear in mind it was the first time I played around with my new little toy!
