  • 0.491 split the top 4 cars as we crossed the line at the finish. A very exciting race!
    My second race weekend in a Legend got off to a very positive start with lots of close racing at the front of the field. The team found and fixed a few issues with the car since Mondello, and from the word go it was nicer to drive. I'm still not as good as I need to be on the brakes with these cars, and I'm not making many aggressive attacking or defensive moves either, but I think with more time all the pieces will come together and I'll be challenging at the front soon.

    Wow, only got around to watch the video now but what an amazing race! And that off-road at lap two was crazy! Great car control throughout the whole race, while you still don't seem to have the confidence of the "veterans" it looks like you're quickly getting there! Seeing those oversteer on videos is a thing, catching them in real life is another haha, and considering you were sideways practically the whole race it really is an impressive show of skill! Those cars really look super-fun to drive, I've seen one drive the other day and he was lapping as fast as the 2-11 I was driving...crazy stuff!
    And about that, the car looked much smaller in real life compared to the video; is it possible that there are two types of them maybe?

      +Gabriele Gonzales No the cars are 5/8 scale so really small when you sit in. Well done on the test btw, sorry I never got back to you, read about it when I was on the go and forgot to get back to you. Sounds like you had a great time and the pics look great - hopefully you can get out in something again real soon!

      +noog Of course, lots of club and amateur racing is much more fun to watch, but we get a couple of good F1 races per year that make it worth tuning in for every week :P

      +Thomas Allen Could you elaborate? I don't see anything at that time only me nearly loosing control by looking my mirrors before the car was straight!

      +Super Nintendo Chalmers Guy in the black car waving his arms at Des. Im guessing telling him to overtake on the left and for making contact lol

      +Thomas Allen sorry someone else was signed in on my laptop and replied on that account. Yeah Paul in the car ahead is my team mate and he was just waving to say lets chase the guys ahead and not fight each other. The contact is fine. We bump draft in these cars because two cars together are faster than one thanks to the slipstream effect
