Well being too cautious at the start cost me a couple spots and had to play catch up. For those first 8 - 10 laps the train from 1st to 6th was visible. The Leadsled lost it and I tried to avoid him which cost me some time. Then it was just me trying to survive and be clean. Late in the race had a good battle with Lead as he was making a comeback. He overshot the takeover move and I was alone again but I had used up my rears staying in front of him so his next attempt was a slam dunk. But late in the race as I was tooling around in 5 I saw the 3 and 4 place cars getting closer and closer so I figured something must have happened and I pushed, but ran out of time.
Bring on Zandy.

very exciting version of silverstone--especially that bloody chicane  congrats to sandy on yet another flag to flag flogging! was very happy to qual within a second of your eagle and did manage to 'pace' you for a couple laps.. the real battle for me was to try and keep terry and paul in my rearview. i managed this for half a dozen laps until getting into jp. a racing deal, yes.. just that i have a bad record of missing spins  had a great time trying to reel terry back in after paul discoed, but he did a great job of staying ahead and keeping me 7-10secs back. i finally overdid it and had a monster high speed spin under the bridge, stalled the car. then had to fight like hell to keep 3rd. sorry sled, was seeing red for a couple laps after that off and i apologize for my uber aggressiveness. very late i bettered my qual time--a little victory off to zandy, cheers! greg |
