Season 04Race Notes

SUCCESS!!  HRT Racing is very pleased to say that the races on Sunday went fairly well.  Driver jensklemp qualified ahead of the pack with a car lapping roughly a second faster then the competition.  The feature race went very smoothly (only one bump with the wall), sprint race was not so succesful.  Coming into turn one with Liz, Tib and I side by side. Liz and Tib had contact, Tib bounced off Liz pushing me into the wall, I go airborn and loose my splitter.  Suffer the rest of the race lapping slowly and not making up any ground.  I pushed it to hard coming out of turn 2 on lap 15 or so and hit the wall hard causing me to spin.

Should have been two 1st place finishes this weekend but things don't always go as smooth as you wish.

I (jensklemp) would just like to send a huge shout out to my team HRT for giving me the time to lap the car prior to the race and help me get the right setup.  Hugely helpful and we are now at the Paul Ricards track, testing the different layouts as they are available.  We look forward to running this LMP car around a proper track and see how competitive we can be.
