#4 - xyx
same here ... i just saw pm now so thats why i didn´t come :/ .



i hope there will be another practice session before race xD
I completely missed it. :/ I'm with everyone else hoping for another.

It actually looks like I'll need two, unless you haven't updated the registration list with credits?
There will be a double credit practice session this Saturday around 18:00 GMT. It will likely be 200 miles however.

There will also be a practice session on Sunday, and I'm going to try to have one Monday. All of these will be around 18:00 GMT (give or take some time). Replays are in hand for this session, but I haven't had time to post them here, and session credits will be updated once again when I have time to update the list.

The entry list is current through session #4.

Once again, if you didn't receive credit please PM me. It's not personal. If you know what is wrong you can fix it. If you don't know what's wrong you cannot fix it.

A few comments that I have after viewing the session

1. Despite the messy result, there was quite a bit of tight competition. The cautions were few compaired to the amount that there could have been, and would have been with fields in years past of the Kyoto 400 when the tightness of the field is considered.

2. With that being said, we can always be better. I made a mistake when I didn't throw the caution immediately when the leading pack wrecked exiting turn one on the final lap. This caused a bigger incident than what it should have, and the race was already decided. My mistake, but you as competitors could learn from your mistakes as well as I did that one. Go back and look at instances where you were involved in contact and acknowledge the mistakes that you made. Remember that you can only control your actions. Don't try to control other's actions. Control your's!

3. Let's keep enjoying this. I love holding these events when you guys are enjoying them, and I hate it when you aren't. In the end there is only one winner (unless there's a tie ), but let's make sure that we are all winners in a figurative way. Let's walk away from these sessions and events as better drivers and in as happy a way as possible. Every event I've been a part of is left in arguments over the last year or so(Our's or NDR's), which means that you guys are passionate, but don't let that get in the way of the fun, and don't let it take the fun out of it for others.
