Happy to see that our team finished within the top 5. Great battle with Matt for the lead for over half the race. Don't know how you got damage, seeing that I didn't. And I never blocked you or brake checked you ( just what others are saying). Anyways, congrats to all the winners.

2 Reactive moves on one straightaway is blocking in most major race category rule books

Wow really? When was this Matt? I have never raced you dirty, so I'm confused. Figured you would lose better than this is all.

I thought it was gonna be a Mosler, Corvette, Corvette 1,2,3...but from what I heard over the pit radio was that the Mosler crew screwed up and had the front suspension to soft and the front right damper failed about 20 laps in. As for the OldFender guy, it appeared he was rusty with not too much track time and met a wall a few times too many. CONGRATULATIONS TO VVSCIENCEVV for his first win in his FSCS career! Long time coming.

I figure I would be fighting for 6th or so but with one Vette no show, one crash out, Mosler pit crew error and a pesky Joss crash late in the race I will gladly take second place on the podium.

FYI Matt. Look at lap 11 turn 1 when you chop me off. I could have run you over at anytime.

Thanks but thats my second win, I won @ Mugello with a LFA season 5 the Mosler looked like he ran wide in the first lap?

Not rusty, but was about to fall asleep...

One request from this GS driver to the GT drivers (not all, but definitely more than one), please practice a little patience when passing our class. I had plenty of time eaten up by people choosing to pass in horrible places. Had I not been on my toes, there were at least 4 instances that definitely could have gone badly for both of us.... Especially if there's a straight coming right after the corner. We do our best to be predictable, generally, but try and get practice sessions with GS cars so you know exactly what kind of lines we run, etc.

Thanks!

After watching the replay. I can see some penalties being issued. I guess we shall see. Good race for the most part.

I dont need to give you a play by play from when you exited the pits to turn 4 on lap 30 do I? I can careless about what happened. There's no video of you blocking me so anything said about the subject is subjective. Yeah lap 11 I cut you off. You were going to try an inside move that no brakes did to me 6 times in practice so in making a single move I cut off your line, which I'm entitled to as the lead driver

The Bernese Alps really loves the 997 GT3 and vice-versa. Wish I drove this well on every other course.... Some good GS racing in B Lobby unfortunately marred by lag-outs.

Got the replay in case anyone needs it, FYI.

Well, when we exited out if turn 1 on lap 30 I was ahead of you. Never tried to block you or race you dirty. I lifted plenty of times before you pitted so I didn't have to worry about trying to pass you, and or both of us lose time trying to fight it out for no reason that early in the race. Your a very good driver, and it seems that you and your team are fustrated right now. Don't understand why with finishing 2nd and 3rd, and you'll be leading the points more than likely after these race results. Best battle since me and hired at nurburg GP last season.

@duck gs cars are faster than some gt cars on the straight so atleast i have to pass in corner or on exit

@ BLOBBY.........sad. face

You were running pretty strongly, I think. You can run that well on other courses though.

Sedona I think will treat the Porsche's pretty well also. Unfortunately, I have to pre-race for that one, as I'll be out of town.

I can say from experience that sedona does like 911's. My rookie season me and my two teammates all qualled A lobby and had one not wrecked out we easily could have finished 4, 5, 6. Its a driver's course though. Practice is the word. Many cars can do very well here. If you see me online feel free to hop in a room with me or party.

Congrads on your Win Science!!

Man I miss racing with you guys. I might be back for a few races in two weeks...probably will be racing in C room LOL!!

Really. ...need to find out where to get the push bar for my car too, I guess. I was only missing a possibility of at least another 1/2 second per lap right off the bat, but whatever.

Yayyyy, time to put brakes in my car

Now I have the awkward decision of choosing whether to go full race with nothing else on the car (including no brakes or suspension upgrades) or do I keep with the sports weight with pretty much everything I can do to it done at the PI.

lucky you

Congrats to those who did well.

Bernese will be in the next season as well, correct? I definitely want to show it who's boss next time, not the other way around.

At least I left some paint as a memory of me being there on a few of the walls. None can say I wasn't there with that proof.
