Hello all, as you may know I'm Francis Barker premium member of racedepartment (and proud

) I have decided to do a blog for all of you to get to know me abit more as I now have more time to be on racedepartment.
Well, how will I start off? Oh yes, On friday night I arrived home late from a very long tiring flight. Was in gatwick airport at 9 and then got home finally at 11 o clock. And I was gobbed smacked to see that I had left my bedroom light on all the time I had been abroad (imagine the electricity bill

)
Where had you been? I hear you ask. Well, I was in california,USA for the past week and was glad when I arrived home with a beta version of MotoGP 08 and also GTR EVO!! I had finally got hold of my own personal copy insted of borrowing it of friends. And I was so impressed with the game but due to jet lag I was in my bed by 5pm in the morning
I finally rose from my bed at 3 in the afternoon to spend more time on EVO. I worked on suspension setup at monza with the corvette, before being pulled away from the game to answer a stupid prank call from a boy with a fake english accent that wasnt very good!!
So, anyway back to GTR Evo, I spent the rest of the night just working on my setup for Monza before doing an hours simulation race distance to check out the performance of the tyres and diferences between heavy fuel load and a light fuel load.
Anyway feel free to comment on my blog, I will post a new blog up next week. Thanks for reading
Much appreceated Francis,
