Oh dear. It was like wacky races again tonight, with people using me as a brake to get round corners and completely ignoring the yellow flags, which seemed to be getting waved on every other lap. Managed a few good overtakes, but just didn’t get any clear laps to put a good time in. Some complete spoon decided to ram me as we were heading into the pits as well, which nearly made my old man head fall off. That really hurt, and I’ll be feeling it in the morning. One of the marshals’ asked if I had a good race when I was on the way out, and I said “not particularly because I was wasting laps trying to get past people, then they would just overtake me on the yellow flags so I had to get past them again”. Then when I got home, I had a free ‘race again’ voucher waiting in my inbox for me, so happy days! Not sure if I should just stick to members nights now. I will be right towards the back of the pack all the time which is a little disheartening, but there are no flags and no idiots, so I get better times, and I get to learn from the better drivers.

Whiplash 🙁
