Such a slippy afternoon!

For my first ever go I thought everyone were very composed and patient. Even when it got wet, people were not messing about. Obviously some good drivers but it made people like myself not feel out if place or pushed out the way.

yup... Thats normal for open pit days.
If you give folk space, you tend to find they notice and in turn give folk space.
You will come accros the odd inpatient bugger though.

It was the Knickerbrook chicane, completely took the tyres out on the first right turn
I found the majority of the drivers were fine, few nobs, mainly the light blue E36 'm3' driver and the red 205 gti with 'ring and mi16 badges on, both wouldn't move out the way, which almost ended in me rear ending the 205 into the first corner cos he jumped on the brakes so early. The silver clio 172 was a cock too.

I had a couple of drivers that perhaps could have been quicker out the way but its no great shakes.
I never seem to do full laps flat out. I prefer to sometimes trundle down the straights ands then work on specific corners
I coulpe of times I got caught out with folk not wanting to pass, and me trying to let them pass. I hate it when that happens

The E36 and 205 took the piss, about 2 or 3 laps behind the E36 and about 4 behind the 205!

I was behind that Nova for 6 or 7 laps, showed him I was quicker round quite a few corners but I think because I was so underpowered on he straight he didn't want me holding him up so didn't let me pass, I don't mind it too much though, makes it all the sweeter when you do get passed and then they disappear a lot quicker than they ever expected

Yup, I am prepared to pay for pictures if they are good, as long as its not a stupid amount! Think the one at Cadwell was charging about 20-30quid for just a CD with a load of pics on!
