CSL Cup Croft Race 1 - Driver Steve Gill
Fun race, but I threw it away. Started 5th, up to 4th by first corner, then 1/2 lap later number 2 (Jamie Martin) hit number 3 (Geoff Steel) and both cars were out - allowing me up to 2nd. The car behind me caught me (Thorney) and got past me on the pit straight (I braked too early ), so I was in 3rd, and then the guy behind me caught me (Mark Steward) - he was faster but I defended for a while, until he tried to overtake me on the pit straight and went sailing into the gravel
However he had the last laugh - he caught me up and overtook me when my gearbox crunched going from 3rd to 4th (18:27 on the video) Finished 4th in the end - disappointed about losing 3rd, but I was slipping lap times as I think my tyres were getting too hot - the car was sliding arouind way too much http://www.vimeo.com/6243128 |
