Knight races at SR4L

So a fellow from the ISI rF2 forum is tempting me to join an open wheel racing league, running the F3 Sparks and Evo's in rF2. It is only once a month so I think I may go for it. Nikos the guy in question seems a sound sort of bloke, we find ourselves chatting quite a lot around that forum so I assume the rest of the guys are of a similar mindset. All mature racers as well. Never gone much for open wheelers so it will be interesting.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo LOL

The link to the SR4L forum is http://sr4l.com/index.php

Here is a link to the thread on the rF2 forum that also has info http://isiforums.net/f/showthread.php/7887-ARI-Fun-Race-11-Belgium

They seem a good enough bunch and these races are open to anyone, no pressure to join the host club and you can indeed set up your own team to run under if you so wish, I have set up a GBR Team but as of yet not got it registered .

Submitted application for the site.  Interested in running with you on the 6, 12 & 24 hour events.  Plenty busy for other series though.

Grand stuff it will be nice to actually race another team similar in set up to us, it is more euro based so it suits me to be involved with them but always as a GBR driver :-)

First three races in the Formula 2's fourth in the first and fith in the last two, horrible lack of FFB in these cars but the races were fun and I did better than I expected.

LOL well due to some strange cock up in the display of positions on my machine and a rather gung ho dive into the pits those should read 5th, DSQ and 6th. Oh well as I was not even going to enter due to the difficulty I had getting to grips with these F2's I am still not too disapointed LOL

Got to say I'm not a great fan of the F2's but a race is a race and it's nice to use rF2 against humans. No reall commitment needed mate so dropn in and out as you wish, small core of hard core regulars and the rest are in and out.

I can keep 'em on the road,  just too bleedin slowly Just been running some laps for Portugal this Sat...woeful. But consistency counts for a lot in these, many fall by the wayside by crashing out over cooking...But even so...woeful LOL

Oh for sure, that is one tough track, Spa is better, almost full throttle all the way around in the F3 Spark once you get hang of it...some corners are a real grit your teeth and stay on that throttle when every bone in your body is screaming lift smiley Portugal is far more technical and is killing me. I will say I know every cow and horse around Spa very well, having killed most of them many times, and flown my car over most of the fences...but once you get it it's a joy.
