  Had a good race going, was in fourth, getting ready to pass for third in a
few, with the leaders just ahead.  Got caught up in a wreck going into T1,
first caution of the race.  Don't know, maybe halfway ?

  Oh well, great fun until then.

Lap car warped up into me in T3, after I hit the wall, the hood was higher
than the roof....might have been able to fix it and ride around 3 laps down,
but why, really? The first half of the race was a great run, 50 or so laps
of green, can't be there for Cali, hope it's just as clean.......Ed

  Yep, just about halfway. We had another real quick caution and then went green the rest of the way. Great racing guys.

Cracking good race! Nose to tail a lot (well, apart from Bob who put
stick-um on his tyres when they got worn...)

getting signals it was time to go :)

  Thanks for the server Eldred.

It was great fun after as well. Me, Ian, and Dave all fought for about
45 laps the 5th through the 7th spots.  It was great fun.

I would also like to thank everyone for pitting with care.  Nobody
appeared to go in too hot.  

Great race!

Definitely an excellent race and a lot of fun. I had trouble getting by a
lapped car and couldn't hold you guys off. You took better care of your
tires than I did too because once you got by, I couldn't fight back.

John, that was some of the best racing I've ever seen. Everyone gave racing
room .

I just watched the replay and from my client view the yellow came out on lap
48 out of 99. Just a straight racing incident IMO, In the lead pack a car
low went slightly high and the car high came slightly low, then a warp took
over and made a slight contact a major one.

Thanks to Eldred for the server and the gents here for showing up to race :)
Sorry I couldn't stay for California.

  I'd agree with that Ian, (don't have a replay), however, fwiw, guarantee
you; 99% of the time, if a car attempts a similar pass as was tried, they'll
wash up the track as occurred, with the same results, many times
irregardless of the room available.
