1987 Interserie - Preis des Aichfeldes [June 9th]

Don't know whats going down tonight but i lost my connection twice ....

Was having a really nice fight with Tiago i think i just got him going into the last corner
then i lost connection hope it did not affect anyone behind me .....

I Love the car and i love the track why does did this have to happen to me now

good first race with no problem (or few) and nice fights
second begins bad, sorry for the bump Jason ...and sorry for the little mess at start
it will finish in a hard unlucky crash with Peter but nice evening anyway
thanks HSO, à bientôt !

Results are up on the website !
Aggregate results are HERE

Heat one was poop for me, made too many silly mistakes, but still finished higher than I started.

Heat two was the most fun I've had in a long time. Stalking Yannick lap after lap, trying to make it by without ending both of our races (we were both very evenly matched). Starting the final lap something in the back of my head said, "It's now or never" and I tried to outbrake him into the Hella Chicane. By some miracle, it worked, and we both survived! Then Yannick almost passed me back with three turns to go, but I managed to keep the line going into the second to last turn. My car washed out to the left and I inadvertently squeezed him onto the grass (sorry about that) -- still, a fun series of laps and a lot of experience maintaining concentration. Heat two was only my second HSO top ten, BTW

To say i'm disappointed Is a huge understatement was really hoping for a top 5 place damn Virginmedia
for spoiling my evening did try and connect for the 2nd race but missed the start so joined as a spectator ....

It looked a good race at the front and at the back between Yannick and Jason i cannot connect to the internet
at all now so this post comes to you from my phone ....

Tiago it was à real shame as you where putting up a great fight in the underpowered Lancia i would like to have continued
for a few more laps and kept you company ...

I Was just wondering , i watched the end of the 2nd race as a spectator and some people really
where struggling for grip did anyone try and go for soft tyres ....

I Tried Softs in practice and they where fried after 8/9 Laps ...

I Liked the Track and the short sprint race format
But it was a shame that more people that put there names down did not turn up ...
THX For Organizing HSO ...

I hope Hungary wasn't nuked yesterday because none of our fellow hungarians joined the race.

I went for soft tyres in both races, they had good grip for 8-9 laps as you said, and after that, the car started to oversteer massively, and I struggled to hold my position in both races, but it was great fun!

Carl, I used softs for both heats. There was a slight drop off in performance around lap 8 or 9, but I managed to keep going at a good pace. I was bound and determined to get by Yannick, so maybe that factored in somehow

I had softs in race one and they died on lap 7 for me, after that it was like riding a soap in a wet bathtub . Tryed med for race two and that didnt work either . But i had fun anyway.

Softs were good on the Mercedes for all 12 laps. Maybe if I was faster I might have melted them

I could say that's a typical one

Couldn t Marke it Sunday...sorry bout that but while watching boring F1 I too late realized that this event was scheduled at the same time.
I am sure this was way more enjoyable...duh.

un grand merci a Jason pour cette belle bagarre

Thanks to you too Yannick!  It was a lot of fun!

Very fun short races! I had nice battles with Kevin in both heats. We even rubbed fenders and door slammed each other in the second race, but it was good hard racing. It was close making softs last the short race, but as others mentioned, the last couple of laps were too slow when I was testing. So, I went with mediums for both races and it worked well. 

Again, wonderful mod!!!
