Pre-race interview is up!

1. Mosport is a short and fast track. Do you prefer short or long circuit?

Generally I don't really have a preference. A short track, especially in a series like this with longer races and lots of cars, will create some challenges with traffic which should be interesting.

2. What's your dream car when you were kid? Show us a picture!

I've always loved the Pagani Zonda since the first time I saw it. It has such a unique shape. Looks almost like an older prototype race car.

3. When have you start to love racing? What is the reason why you went into racing?

I was always interested in cars and machines in general as a kid. I eventually started watching Top Gear a lot and after watching Richard Hammond drive the Renault F1 car I wondered when the next F1 race was. I watched the next race which was the 2011 Italian Grand Prix and was immediately hooked. Since then I've expanded my interest into many other forms of motorsport.

I know there is a practice session that will start at 9PM however, I cannot make it that late. I will have one up starting at 6PM EST that will run for 4 hours.

 

[MrCaringi]

I wont race this one.

Good luck people.

 

[DeamingPie]

And my Oculus just broke. I'm out this round.

 

[Tanke22]

Chicos por temas familiares no podré correr el día de hoy

Guys for family problems I won't be able to run today

Thanks

 

[Jefferson Padovani]

I want to see at least 30 cars on track today...

Otherwise I will start to ask Jerome to unlock and re-open the sign in topic...

 

[vfrket]

Great racing at the front gentlemen!

 

[jeromef1]

Wow! What a crazy race!

My POV. I'll take a quiet 5th any day! Scary lap 2 moment with Dupont and Barie @ 21:45.

What a race! Fantastic nonstop action with Eissler and Perez. That was pretty exhausting. Everyone's pace was so close that there wasn't a chance to make a serious move for position with the short braking zones and fast corners at this track.

 

[Afawcett94]

My apologies for the spin in Moss a few laps in. I overcooked the entry and spun on the grass.

 

[Ozymandias]

Great race yesterday. Congratulations to Benjamin and Alexander for 45 minutes without breathing space. Once again I was lucky for Jorge's accident with a lapped car.
Regardless of the final place, one of my best races in terms of pace, few mistakes and keep me under constant pressure. The final victory makes it even better.
See you @Phillip Island next week

Man, did I have a rough night last night. I really don't think I was working with the right setup for 103 degree track. I oversteered out of Turn 2, survived, but Gary couldn't avoid me. Even when I was just trying to let traffic by, I couldn't control well enough with the damage and got in Richie's way. Sincere apologies to you both.

Very happy for my teammate Pete Mobroten on his stellar finish at 12th after running late and not being able to get a qualifying time in.


I'd like to forget about that track altogether. On to Philip Island! Have a great week, everyone!

I was the car that had contact with you.  When I saw you, I taught that you would cross the track entirely and went left.  But you didn’t, so I’ve had a direct hit on your side, then got ramed in the back.  Racing deal.   

 

[Carsten Quint]

Good race guys. Made one mistake that cost me big time. Messed up Turn 2, got onto the grass and went for a ride. Thought I kept it off the wall, no contact message etc.. but apparently I was wrong. Got a meatball flag once I got back onto track and had 12 mins of required. Got back on track and tried to keep out of the way. Looked like the leaders had a hell of a battle for the whole race. Congrats to everyone.

No worries, seemed a lot of people were struggling. My setup was off also, but because I had to repair Oculus then had a Windows update I did not have enough time to play with the setup.
