Very nice, I wasn't expecting the 1 stopper to work out. Congrats to Ken and Andor. You guys are set for promo already, may be it's time to slow down and smoke *wink wink* :P


Agree. Hahaha

They would get some small points probably even when smoking at the end, so shouldn't be a big deal at this point in the season in my opinion. ;)

I'd also gain maybe a few positions, to increase my bank balance a bit. ;)

But 1 stopper was the only way in my opinion with this TCD... there wasn't a lot of difference between softs and hards in that regard (especially if you got blocked as well with 2 stops).

E: I also see, that Ken did some big man upgrades for next race. ;)

Andor, when you came out of pitts only 15 sec behind me I really thought I was toast.

I payed Flip, Tan and Charles well. Good to see they held you up as promised hahaha


hahaha :) It was very frustrating to watch :(

Nice time again Ken. I can bet you secure your 3rd win in a row. :)

It was for about 5 laps, then I felt I had you covered ;)

Thanks. My Q1 was awful from what I practiced. I was 1.023 slower than my practice lap and atm I'm only 1.043 from best ama time in Q1 ;(

3 in a row would be nice, but I'll wait to celebrate. This is GPRO where anything is possible and we still have Flip and Tan yet to Qual. Hopefully I can watch it live.

Something weird going on with my Q2 lap. I adjusted setup for rain but... way too slow. I used the right tires, too.

That said, that's a stonking Q2 Ken! You're in the top 10 in all of Ama atm for Q2 and overall

Tan, did you use a rain setup for Q2? If so that was your problem, Q2 was dry.

Thanks. I ended up with 2 new accomplishments in that race. Fastest Amateur race time and fastest lap in Amateur. Those are 2 I never dreamed of getting.

Thanks Tan. It was a FT for my driver but I've had plenty of FT's since season 33 and never came close to those accomplishments.

This tells me I'm going into Pro in better shape than ever. Is it enough? We'll see.

1 second driver mistake in Q1... really mad to be honest. At least you guys are pretty slow in rain, so I didn't lose that much time overall. :D

So when do you guys plan to smoke? I'd take some podiums with pleasure. ;)

Hey, Alan. Congrats on the win.

There's still a small handful of us keeping things some what alive here, which is good.


Keith, keep those top 15 top 20's going and you'll retain easily.

Andreas.....I'm done for the season. I'll be dragging my feet from here on out, so go get your podiums ;)

I'm smoking the rest of the way this season. My driver won't be happy. Neither would my sponsors, but I don't have any :P Gonna build up my bank balance a bit and go for promo next season. Big thanks to Ken for some valuable advice :-)

You're in a very good spot indeed, car is also looking nice for Pro already. Do you lower your car level a bit towards end of the season?

But I'm not so sure, if I can get those podiums easily though. :D
Mainly as there are some risk users - Marcelo and Charles? Not certain if Radek uses them as well, but I don't. Money balance already shows that quite a bit. ;)

Well next race is an exception - I may have a chance, but not so certain about the upcoming ones. Well I'm already ready enough for the next season, so this isn't something what I must get.

Thanks! The win was nice, I wouldn't have got it without FT though. But now I also feel a bit bad, because I don't want to promote still... and I'm very close to promoting if I get more podiums. Filip seems to have went bankrupt and quitted the game, so Tan or Radek are next in line to promote.

So Tan, maybe you want the promotion spot? ;) Or Radek? ;) It's free of cost.

But no really, I hate to see Filip quit in such a decent season, he didn't even need to go bankrupt to promote. I have no idea what made him to do such a decision...

Also to me it seems like you both, Andor and Ken, still race. ;) Which is a good thing in my current situation as I may need to maybe smoke myself instead, to not promote...

I'm hoping Radek takes it, I'm just gonna be smoking to the end. Most of my parts are at like, 100% wear now, and I don't plan on fixing that anytime soon.

Congrats Andreas.

Never thought I'd be pissed at a P3 but I sure was on this one. 0ct and 5 pit stops should not of netted me a P3, needed a P15 or so.

Andor, cup round is all your's, I gotta drag my feet big time these last 4 races to get moti down.

Look at how I managed it at the start of the season, maybe you can take some notes. ;)

But thanks, I haven't got a win for a while, so this is at least something.

He seems to have a ready driver for Pro as per OA, so I'd assume that he's looking for that last spot. Could be a chance that he maybe wants to promote next season as well... I didn't keep track of his OA management at the start of the season.
I'm not going to get another win anyways as I surely can't promote in this one as well.

It's my sense of humour. ;) (what I really would recommend is running Q's as bad as possible though, since starting from 1st isn't really "poor" for your driver to lose motivation on :D)

And I actually ran with rain tyres in Q1, because I wanted to start from the bottom of the field... but even still I'm fast in Q2, what manages to give me a 2nd position, oh dear lord really! :D
Meaning, that I will pit as hell this race then... as I just wont accept any points for now. Radek, go take that easy podium. ;)

Thanks :)

I dont have this problem, cause I ****** up and I already lost my driver :( His AO is over 120 with 0 motivation, and his contract end is after last race, so i can not extent it :(

At least I can race with smoking and downgradid car. If you really have to take moti down, I will take than the first spot, and fight for cup either. :)

What a chaotic, and close race this was :)

With smoking car 1st place :) But i would lost it, if the race has 81 laps. :)

Congrats to Cejka, I think he is ready for next season promotion either. :) Good luck!
