Iffy on tonight guys, especially with the way my controller's
been acting. I will be signing on this evening and do some quick
3-lapper races but if I am experiencing problems then don't wait
for me if I am not signed on.

Update ... still having some issues but it's very sporadic, so I
think I will try to race but if you see me retire, it's because
my controller has started to act up. Keeping my fingers crossed
though.

quali 2nd - happy with that i was doin some laps earlyer with
the angryman and couldnt crack under 1.21.500, made a slight
tweak off roll bars and pumped out a 1.20.600 happy with that
race 3rd - was strong of the line ran in first untill the long
striaght thought nash was gunna get me but ran out of puff and
seen moss getting a good tow barging his way thru at t4. was
looking good until the s.c comes out make a few little errors
and nash jumps me to take 2nd. stay in 3rd untill our primes
stint on lap 10. try to push on the primes cut to many corners
earn a drive thru(was expecting it as i had no prac all week).
once i come out im behind a trio of drivers and decide to save
fuel for a few laps.
moss comes out of the pits on lap 23 i get him under slip stream
down the straight. hear him over the radio saying oh shit or
something. i thought i may have been further back on his screen
then on mine. i take of with him behind
my primes held up very well was on lap 25 and still doin ok! 16
lap old primes!! was in first then moss spins me out at the last
corner, doesnt wait find myself in 3rd again, arrrggghhh. so i
pitted for new rubber next lap.
i had the sh.its a bit and absolutely thrashed the cu.nt out of
that mercedes for the next 4 laps. get fastest lap which was 1
tenth of the pole time. 3 tenths faster then mine. leave macca
and my teammate left at a stand still. both on primes tho.

Q - 3
Couldn't string together 3 good sectors on the same lap, but 3rd
place was ok for me here. Pretty much my first proper race in
India, so I wasn't expecting too much.
R - 2
Great start, getting past Moss and Stubbs, taking the lead into
turn 1. My starts have got a lot better over the season. Then it
all went wrong. Downshifted into Neutral, allowing stubbs past
and then Moss zoomed past both of us down the back straight, so
we were back in grid order. Rest of the first lap was terrible.
Wasn't able to adjust to the fuel load properly, so I was just
all over the place. I was finally starting to settle down when
the safety car came out, which gave me a nice breather. Thanks
drew ;-)
Managed to get past Stubbs and into 2nd soon after the restart,
when he overshot the hairpin at the end of the back straight.
After the first round of stops I was still in 2nd a few seconds
behind Moss and a few seconds ahead of Stubbs. People seemed to
be trying different strategies, as Striker was leading at that
stage. After the 2nd round of stops Stubbs was leading from Moss
and me (but I guessed he had to stop again). I could see him
lagging quite badly in front of Moss, which allowed me to close
right up, but I didn't want to attempt an overtake with Stubbs
all over the screen! In the end both me and Moss got past, but I
don't really know what Stubbs would have seen on his screen.
I knew I didn't have the pace to chase down Moss for the win so
settled for 2nd, which was a great result for me at this track.

I'm pretty sure Moss wouldn't have known anything about that. On
my screen (and I think his too) you were lagging almost as bad
as Paul from earlier races!
