To bad you didn't get to catch up with Nathan... better luck next time.

Yeah he did do well. Started 7th and finished 4th, 4 seconds off the leader and also put in the 2nd fastest lap time in the race, he had a advantage when everyone else complained from lack of grip. maybe tomorrow in race 3 when there is more laps Nathan can have more time to make up more positions.

N.A-D.R · 23 Jan 2008, 05:31 (Ref:2111738)

Thanks for the update Gomick.

It's a very close battle for the title now. To bad Nathan isn't challenging for it as hes had way to many retirements (actually the most retirements out of all the drivers).

Now it's a 1 months break and we are back racing at Manfield. Cant wait.

**gomick** · 24 Jan 2008, 20:32 (Ref:2112839)

is he retiring with car damage or engine problems?

Car damage mainly. If he didn't retire as much as he has, he would be in the top 8 easy. But these tracks and this car is all new to him. You will find at the last round in Hamilton where no-one has ever raced on before. He will go into that weekend where no-one else has advantages on him.

Thanks NAC.

first practise session results: http://www.mylaps.com/results/newResults.jsp?id=729361

second practise session results: http://www.mylaps.com/results/newResults.jsp?id=729362

Nathan 6th fastest in second practise. 0.3 off the fastest time. All the drivers are all very equal on times and i reckon qualifing will be close.

NAC · 15 Feb 2008, 06:24 (Ref:2129342)

My money is on Knight to take both this round and the championship

N.A-D.R · 15 Feb 2008, 08:49 (Ref:2129416)

the top 4 or even top 7 are all on the money to have a chance at pole position imo. The races will be interesting.

N.A-D.R · 16 Feb 2008, 02:49 (Ref:2130010)

Bamber takes pole for all 3 races.

Indeed. I read it did rain before Q1. Q2 was better for him for sure. He Needs to work on setting up the car.

In race 1 he started in 13th. spun during the race and finished 9th. Race 2 he will start 5th, so that is better for him.

N.A-D.R · 16 Feb 2008, 14:28 (Ref:2130276)

Antunes once again retired from the race... Hes had way to many retirements.... But does anyone know what happened to him on lap 1? I heard he spun, so he might of been bumbed off....

Good to see Andy Knight and Mitch Cunningham doing well. Both are veterans of the Pacific F2000 Championship Series (US). Mitch in 2007 and Andy 2006.

NAC · 1 Mar 2008, 01:51 (Ref:2141291)

I'm sure that N.A-D.R will be trolling through here very soon so though I should reming him that the VnC Cocktails series is at Levels Raceway near Timaru

He did alot better in qualifing. Qualified 5th in Q1 and 11th in Q2.
