Congrats guys, what an eventful race for all of you. We were keeping track of your car over from the ADC garage also as we saw you drop and then climb back up the rankings all race long.
We were watching you guys throughout the battle too David! Congrats to your P3000 team. That Matra does make a distinctive sound, doesn't it!?
If you look at who finished ahead of you, 2 fellow Ferrari 512's (one of which won), 3 Porsche 917 monsters and those Kiwis who were on fire in the P3000 Ferrari 312 (5th overall, wow) and throw in the issues you encountered I would say that a top 3 would have been a real possibilty without the penalties at the end of the day, Grats again Team SimHQ!
I guess it's always a case of after you cheer and celebrate your finishing at all let alone the finishing position, you think of what might-have-been. Chipwich believes and I'd have to concur that even with all the adversity, IF those last two discos didn't happen, even if ONE didn't happen, Ahmad would have locked 6th place and very possibly challenged for 5th. But as always it's "we'll get 'em next time."

Doug I wish you could have gotten the SimHQ GT40 on track as the other GT40 was really in the mix for a while in class.
I wanted to run so bad that I asked if I could solo, because even though I know that track well, I didn't know the GT40. But when I found out I couldn't run solo, some drivers wanted me to join their car. No, you don't want that people.

There's always a next time. Besides, grandpa had a nice time "pestering" the drivers of car #9.

I am also looking forward to the race video.
I was lucky enough to record the entire race. I asked Patrick if it was okay for me to do the camera car kind of thing and he said just to sign in as spectator, so I did... for 24 hours.

Used the wireless netbook for the live updates and some comms.
