Thought i'd do a little write up. Used to do them on xbox meetings when i had the time and i've got a spare 15 mins so have a read if you're interested...

 

Practice/Pre-meeting warmup:

This was the first f2 meeting i've done post setup move.(Now got everything at home so can practice regularly) So i was feeling a lot more confident than i usually do. Car was handling well and was regularly hitting 13.9/8s and even managed a .7 so was well chuffed. Some of the reds/ss were giving good reviews so i knew i had could make the open maybe even win a race if i got a good lead in the first few laps of the heats.

 

Heat 1:

Not sure if it was the nerves or what but i was all over the place. Still struggle to handle the car whilst being punted so quickly found myself towards the back were i was able to pick up speed and settle myself. End result was nil points and a slight knock to the confidence.

 

Heat 2:

There was less white tops in this and i managed to get pole. Got a good start and lead a few laps but was aware of 58 Tom behind and had heard others mentioning he was undergraded in teamspeak so let him through and followed his line. This proved a good tactic as only a few got past me after that and i was happy with 5th.

 

Heat 3:

I started behind the pole sitter for this with only 3 whites on track. I quickly found myself in 2nd with 103 in front and the yellows closing in fast. I havent found myself in the situation of being car than the car in front so far this season so it was a challenge trying to pass cleanly. I didn't manage it and ended up spinning 103(sorry mate). Which closed everything up massively. Not sure when it happened but i found myself in a cracking scrap with 954 and 238. Nice nudging but no spinning or race ending shots and managed to hold off a late challenge from 474 to pick up some more solid points.

 

UK Open:

Again a new experience for me being on the inside in the middle of the pack. There was pushing before the flag dropped all the way till about lap 3, during which time numerous cars went out but i some how managed to keep moving and was sat about 18th. The rest of the race was fairly uneventful finishing roughly 16th. Was very happy only to be lapped by the top 3 cars.

 

Grand National:

I was the only white top out which i thought would be a good thing but i realised quickly that meant the yellows had a clear run. I held my lead a good 5 laps and 954 was only catching a little at a time but too much laptime watching cost me and i was reeled in. A little tap and i was round like a spinning top. But a bit more experience on the contact side so hopefully be able to deal with it better next time and keep the car in a straight line.

 

On reflection a great meeting for me. Thank you everybody and apoligies to anyone i took out.
