Hollow podiums ? Our team were perfect until the final stint when our car was trashed by no fault of our own. Yet its a hollow podium ? Your now being pathetic just because you didn't get a podium. Put your toys back in your pram please.

Shame stuff like that is being said, I know for certain that I put in 200% to get where I did and Im sure it's the same for Laggy's team. Neither the BMW or Jag in B lobby never even touched another car (excluding the lag smash) and yet we don't deserve it?

I did tap you after getting pushed off the track. 6% side aero isn't worth mentioning though.

The racing between our teams was fantastic.

I Pushed you off the track ?

No, Going into turn one a LMP committed to the inside lane and I hadn't noticed till I started turning in, so I had to back way off to avoid a crash. I tapped you trying to get my car back under control.

Oooo I think I remember them 10 hours kind of merged together in that case no major damage or collisions occured Great racing never the less

great effort from the TORA staff, no issues for me or my team mate, all clean racing - lumpi wee did fall foul of one lag incident, but these things happen

think the new system for distance measuring is much fairer, my only negative feedback would be that the lobby hosts should know 100% what they are doing with regard to grid setup and recording data - other racers shouldn't be correcting them

overall pleased with where we finished, the lambo was never going to have the legs to win here, although we could have been a bit closer - i'll blame my own talent for that one!!

just wish i'd read up more on the rules for le man as the lambo will be an utter waste of 24 hours

As quickly as the sign ups went, be happy you got a GTE car

I this has been took out of context and I in no way think it was aimed at you guys....there was a comment about us having a hollow podium and it got our teams back up as the final results hadnt been released.
So lets just draw a line under it and good luck with le mans fellas .

ahh its cushty. I apologise, i thought it was aimed towards us and other teams.

If this was interpreted the wrong way I do apologise I just didn't want all our the hard work to appear as if we didn't deserve, no hard feelings!

Hey Duncan, I got to watch the footage from the 2nd stint yesterday, and my pass on f4h Stuttgart reminded me of my pass on you in my first ever TORA race in the GT's at Mugello. I'm sure you remember that one. latched onto the back bumper waiting for a mistake.

would like to again thank the TORAlive crew for letting me the booth with them for this race, it was the best part of day, as after that stint 4, my stomach started turning again from flu, and I couldn't race in the last stint. BloodYCain took over for me.

Onwards to Le Mans!
