Another tough race over, less entries than normal but nonetheless a close race. Sukerkin narrowly takes the edge over Famine while Appie sat out in no mans land for most of the race, Benedict got the edge over team mate Ashley and KevinD came across the line to pick up his first point for himself and his team!

Sukerkin----------------23'02.371-------------------UDO DB9
Famine------------------23'06.796-------------------UDO DB9
Appie17-----------------23'19.317-------------------Team Call C12
Benedict----------------23'29.971-------------------Team GB XKR
Ashley------------------23'30.094-------------------Team GB XKR
KevinD------------------24'06.431-------------------KND Motorsports M3.

The battle for the fastest lap was a close one!

1. Sukerkin: 2'04.272
2. Famine: 2'04.588
3. Benedict: 2'04.677

Very close!

Next week should see more entries, hopefully Daan will get his GT4 sorted, Bee will have completed his house move and have internet back and so on!

The next round takes us to Tokyo R246 for 12 laps of speed and heavy braking!

Thanks!

Very pleased to get my first points. And also to see I was close to the UDOs on the fastest lap. GO TEAM GB!

Well done to all who made it onto the grid for this one 👍

A nice podium for Appie too - you deserved one for all your interest and enthusiasm mate :cool:

.

Well done to Famine for keeping up the pressure too - I'm sure that UDO must have the Team Championship settled after this one

.

A quick question for Benedict ... did you find consistency hard to come by? It's very easy to outbrake yourself on this circuit and so lose a ton of time. I've run this circuit quite a bit as I use it as a brake testing track. The secret is to brake much earlier than you might think necessary and then use modulated throttle to catapult you out of the bends (whilst staying on the black stuff :eek:

!). Anyhow, very nice fastest lap my friend; congrats.

Sukerkin.. I did find it hard to run a completely clean lap. The majority of my laps were 2 min 06-08 secs but I also set some horrible laps that ended up creeping into the 2 min 10s where I either ended up outbraking myself or just made stupid errors from lack of concentration (i could smell my mums cooking 👍 ). The only reason I set that nice lap is I was kinda fortunate that I kept my concentration and was able to hook it up really nice and time my entry into the corners well. For me anyway it is just a question of cutting down the silly errors and forgetting my braking points. Even if I didnt make as many mistakes I still dont think I could match you UDO boys :indiff:

Thanks all for the congratulations on my time.

Oh yeah one thing I would like to add, I did have a trial run in the DB9 on the same circuit and hooked it up really nicely and set some times that ended up in the 2 min 02 secs :sly:

Although this was in time trial without any traffic to get in my way and enrage me :grumpy:

(Sets AI Skyline on fire and drives into tyre wall) Dont ask pls lol

Hey guys, after having permission from Ash I will be competing in Round 7 starting from now up until friday because it is my 18th birthday on sunday and my girlfriend is staying over on the weekend so im sure she wouldnt appreciate me sitting on my arse playing GT4 all the time. Sure none of you have a problem with this so I wont be active on the board much if it all this weekend. Good luck all:tup:
