  • Warning - some sweary content!
    Not a great race for me, the car developed a misfire and was running on three cylinders all day. Still qualified 4th in class though!.
    To make matters worse the brakes were bled and I ended up putting air in the system and no time to re-bleed.
    However the race itself saw me get hit by another competitor, whilst the race was under A SAFETY car. Take a look at 9m30s to see the crash and my expletive ridden reaction - not a happy bunny.
    Still finished 7th in class and not last - not bad when down 30 hp.
    Enjoy and comment below

    Such colourful words! Would love to know what the other driver's excuse was. Congrats on getting 4th in your group though.

    It was also dangerous to get along side the offending car and weave left to right at him under safety car conditions.

      if your a friend of the other driver, I understand why you have that point of view.

    9 drivers were given penalty’s due to back markers/slower drivers that had been lapped not picking up the pace and catching the safety car

      I reckon I had dropped my pace by about 2 secs. So that’s bollocks. The safety car continues until the grid has caught up. Read the rule book.

    Perhaps knowing you had a miss fire you should have been more aware of faster cars around you. Irrespective of it being a safety car or not. You left that door fairly open and in normal race conditions you can guarantee some one would put there nose up there.

      It wasn't normal race conditions though. The race was neutralised, I passed ( which mean they passed) 3 marshals posts all showing the SC board. There should not have been even the hint of an attempt to overtake. I was also completely aware of faster cars as the rest of my video shows.

    I overtook you because I assumed you were breaking down while making no effort to catch up the cars in front. Im well aware you’re class C but I judged you to be going so slow you must had a problem, by the time got to your rear quarter it was too late, might have explained this on the day but after you having a tantrum and swerving around as if to threaten to hit me deliberately I didn’t waste my time.

      No overtaking under the safety car. You can complain about my driving after the race. You don’t smash in to me to get me out of the way. I stood next to you outside the Clerks office, you were aware of which car I was driving because you asked. I however wasn’t 100% sure you were the culprit. You could have apologised . Instead you were plotting what to say to the clerk trying to lie your way out of it. There’s no excuse for why you did. 3 marshals posts , the light boards are so bright I am surprise they don’t have planes landing on the craners. Take a long hard look at your driving. In the meantime if I see you I. The paddock I’ll do my best to be civil to you. I hope you can do the same to me. It is done and that is it.
