The 635 is a heavier car than the M3 and Merc but I could do the races on Mediums, getting a little bit of squirmy-ness from the rears in the last couple of laps due to overheating as I was battling but there were no troubles as such with the tires Smile

Had some really nice battles with Jason in both races and with Gerárd and Richard in the second which was a lot of fun Smile

Sorry to Jef for hitting you in the chicane during the second race, saw smoke and stuff but that was after I had begun to brake so couldn't pull it up in time but tried to avoid your rear end as best I could but not enough luck to succeed sadly Sad

Thanks for the organisation HSO Smile

PS: No problems yet again Philippe, it's an easy misstake to make so no hard feelings. Was very slow in the hairpin because the 635 didn't want to go around that kind of tight corner  lol!

Say what?  Shocked 

I did the first race on mediums and they lasted the full stint with all dots in green  Shocked 

For the second I switched to softs but I had not enough time to check if they lasted or not.

Oh well, I know I'm slow, but still I always seem to use proportionally way less tires and less fuel than most people  :smil20: 

I am harder on tires than most, so maybe that was a factor. Who knows  :smil20:

1. race: start, first corner and the first few laps,  Suspect  I was unlucky, but after the calm down I could gain few positions and get the fifth position. pale
2. race: One word: FUN. :drink: 
Thanks Jan for the battle. Lot of break out in hairpin, and lot of overtaking with power in that sierra. :hello: 

After all of this battle I finished in  :third: 

Congrats to the American Powaaaaaaa' :clap: 

Awesome Wednesday tonight again :flag:
