I've noticed that the top 5 in Qualifying is usually the same people, so i guess its ike a 5 way battle to win Amateur-52???

and GoodLuck in the race everyone.

7 way fight for sure at the moment. We'll see that number decrease as the season goes on :)
Will be interesting to see the strategies used tonight. There's possibly 3 decent options available to use.

I always get sucked in by excitment and speed of ex soft.

Then I sit and mourn as my pit times rob me any chance, and vow to only ever do one stop strategy ever again.

Then I qualify on ex soft.

One stop today certainly would have been suicidal, so I think you made the right call :p

The way this group is pushing I will struggle to promote. This group seems quite hard than some of the others.

Indeed, it's your driver Damien.
The only thing your driver is superior to both myself and Johns driver is your aggression.
Lacking in stamina and concentration is the cause to you not keeping up with the guys at the top :)

Hi. I have a question. I have vritten your thoughts about skills of driver. So, have stamina and concentration the same influence on the race and on the qualification? I sorted it out with my friend. We are not sure about it.

Some stats are good for racing, others are good for qually, some may even be good for both and others yet good for nothing.

Which stats fall into which category though, that is something that no one should be saying here for it is FOBY :)

My driver was coming in pits with a lot of fuel and without tyre degradation. Why ?

You had a tech problem, I forget what it was now (and with the connection problems I am not going to try and find the lap again :p )
