A very enjoyable event, even though the numbers were disappointing.
The Pantera is certainly a beast to keep under control, but you can't beat that sound. Great track choice Andy, Silverstone's longer straights and sweeping bends gave the Pantera plenty of scope to show it's speed.
Qualified on pole, which is a first for me.
It was a bit of a fright to see the track was dark at the start, so lights on immediately. Cool sight.
Managed a clean start but I could see the three wide battle behind me, very spectacular but unfortunately it lead to some early spins. This allowed me to open a comfortable lead over Jerome Martin which stayed pretty steady till he must have had a spin. I imediately managed a spin of my own and the gap closed to about 8 secs. I held the lead for about 20 laps but now had Hans keeping me honest. I pitted earlier allowing Hans to take over the lead. However a few laps later when Hans pitted, my lead was much greater, so his pitstop must have been slower.
Managed to keep it on track to the finish to take my first GTL win. :jumping:
It was fun, and a pity we don't have more support for GTL, the driving model is superb, and quite a challenge.
