First Time At Donnington And Im Racing It!

After getting the car ready, it was time to hit the track at Donnington.
Qualifying went well, mainly just learning the track, braking points and turning points. one disqualified time as I went too wide on the first corner on the 3rd lap, left braking a bit too late and went in too fast for the ZR standard suspension.
Race 1 was a DNF due to a siezed inner CV Joint on the driveshaft on the green flag lap.
luckily a fellow ZR racer had one which I could swap out ready for race 2, but, I think the driveshaft had damaged the bearings in the gearbox as they are fairly noisey now....
Race 2 I had to start from the back of the Grid, but I had a blinding start, Making up 5 places by the first corner.
it wasn't without fault though as a MGB lost its brakes behind me and ended up hitting the back of my car, luckily didn't punt me off the track but the same car done the same thing 2 laps later, barely missing me, cutting across my path and into the gravel,
this brought a saftey car out. when the saftey car went in, I was chasing the blue zr in front for class 2nd, but my lack of experience on the track saw me fall behind and eventually crossed the line in 20th, 3rd in class A.
got some work to do before the next race at the end part of September.
