It looks like we may get moderate showers half way through the cruise. I will be leaving in about 30mins.

Tried to do a little brake burnout, but my fear of it winding up, then piling on the boost, then smashing the limiter meant that I rolled back the throtle too early and that turned into a limp wristed attempt at a skid.

Main thing is no one mounted any curbs hahahaWho the fk made that map though, that last bit was crappy. Oh wait...Also, peer pressure FTW Phil hahaha. I know what you mean about the brake though. If I was ever to do one I like to get off the brake very soon after it starts. More fun but less smoke.

Posted 30/08/15 08:12 AM Share Posted 30/08/15 08:12 AM (edited) I remember the Jim Richards one, looking at some of the cars behind him, Lowndes' green eyed monster AU still looks great."Richards was unhurt, but his Expensive Daewoo was seriously damaged. It eventually returned to the race. No such luck for the roo. Hit at an estimated 190km/h, it was killed instantly. Drivers spent the remaining 60 laps dodging the roo's remains, which littered the track and were too unsafe to remove until the race's completion. Safe to say this is something that wouldn't happen at Spa-Francorchamps or the Nurburgring."
