After the wild ride of camino its time to give your asses a break on the smooth surfaces of the Circuit de Catalunya. With both championships thoroughly going the way of Fender and his Camaros can anyone make a dent in the points deficit? Hiredgun leads the following pack with his jaguar team and is likely to enjoy this track more than the last. Perhaps Hannibal will take his second win in a row and prove himself to be the true king of Spain. Given that 80% of feature races this season have been won by the pole sitter the qualifying race could be the one to watch. Good luck boys!
15 lap Qually 25 lap Feature

we have to ask people why they are not making it into the race.
I believe Pablo will be for this race, if girlfriend let him.
Hunter got a new job, so schedule is not working for him, if the race start can be delayed 30mins, maybe he can get in for Main Race.
I´ll talk to them and ask to write here their opinions.

Excelent Race!
I had a great time with Fender, then Haired, then Oddball, then Maxx and then alone!
It was a good race for me, i´m learning to handle the brakes, but it looks good. I can run some fast laps, but consistency is what i need to work, and only practice will give me that.
Congrats to Roscoe, for the first SIR win. ( we let u win )
Great run for Pablo.
Great run for Maxx.
See u next week.

What a blast last night, highest finish this year for Cavitto Ratti! Thanks to Hired, Manuel & Oddball for not scratching the paint in some very close racing.
Hold your tickets please, there's been a stewards inquiry on the #14 Flying Chicken w/Waffle breathe

What an amazing race last night. The racing was door to door literary. Top 5 finishes within 5 second of 1st awesome. I think everyone was in a battle that race. I can't tell you how many time me and sainted rubbed doors and fenders leaning on each other trying keep 4th.
I'm hunting some Roscoe and having it with some chicken soup next week.

Thanks for the offer. Out of curiosity I just ran some laps using the controller instead of my wheel. I was running mid 19's with one mid 18. It was kind of disturbing to crank the steering and not have it bulldoze off the track like it does when i'm using the wheel.
