A most enjoyable selection of events, all completed on hard, with wins on 1st or 2nd attempt.
Sunday Cup Classic: Suzuki Carry - Fully Modded, on CS tyres. PP on this feels ridiculously low, given it’s spec and power-to-weight ratio. An easy win
Japanese FF Challenge 450: Suzuki Swift Sport - Race mods, SH tyres. Again no real challenge from the AI racers, easy first attempt win.
Special Event: enjoyed using the Espace, but the target wasn’t particularly challenging. Gold achieved at 2nd attempt.
Porsche Cup: Carrera GT, Stage 1 weight reduction, front splitter and rear wing added, SS tyres. I loved driving this car! Probably my favourite Porsche of all time. Handles beautifully, and the sound of that V10…
The most enjoyable event of the week, with a shower mid race keeping things interesting.
World Touring Car 700: Porsche 911 RSR. Having enjoyed driving the Carrera GT so much, it was too hard to resist the RSR, when I checked my garage for something suitable for this race and spotted the RSR, already tuned to 699PP on RH tyres. FM3, with a fuel only stop on lap 6 produced an easy win.

My POTW obvious goes to the Carrera GT among it’s siblings!

For the Porsche Cup race at Spa I first tried a stock '95. No chance lol. So next I hopped in a stock '01. Still no hope. I skipped the '09 thinking it would not be competable either and jumped straight into a stock '16 Cayman. Disappointing.

For ***** and giggles got in the '09 and low and behold she was worthy of the challenge. 👌
