Hi Eldred,

is this an open chassis race or will it be a spec race using
a fixed chassis for all drivers?

Thanks,

uwe

dipped if I know what I did to kill it either.

Oh well - I got high-sided on a dune and couldn't free the car.  This is my
earliest exit from one of these things... Cruising in 3rd place, too.  
Grrr...

Eldred - back to playing Civilization 3...

I ran out of gas on lap 35.  I forgot there's a separate race and
qual setup.  Was cruising in 2nd too...

I learned my lesson though, and have already made sure my ring race
setup has a full tank. :)

     Check your radiator for a small caliber bullet hole.  Then scour the
bystanders for someone who 'looks' like he's trying not to be noticed.
Obviously the work of a Sniper.  I know they have ruined MANY a race of
mine.  Yeah dat's it!!

I hate to admit it but I retired. When John went there were only two of us
left. I never usually quit like that but another hour on track running alone
was not what the doctor ordered ;)

Thanks for organising things Eldred - I was really missing my racing fix.
Hopefully we'll get a few more for the ring.

Regards and Seasons Greetings

Me too, mine let go on lap 20.  I hadn't taken it to the redline.

Ok, so...did anyone save the newspaper from the results?

What, you didn't get enough in the MoG Monza race? :-)
You're welcome.

Damn. I had to go out today but I'll be around next week. Had to redress the
monster rank balance instead when I got in :-)

Eldred, I drove it to the end and saved the Gran Prix News.

You can view it here at my mere mortal web page.
redline426/

Or let me know and I can mail you the .bmp.

my news server has a problem with g-e-o-c-i-t-i-e-s for some reason. See if this goes through.
