Further to the incidents last week in BTCC, we had another restart last night. I've thought hard about it and made a decision. There will be no restarts in any of our series, unless the issue is with the server. Be cautious, courteous and practice your starts in practice. The server is up 24/7 so you have plenty of time to do so I asked on Mumble if people felt that last night was grounds for restarts. I got three say yes, one say no. I chose to restart. After thinking about it, it's situations like this where certain people get their best chance for some points and, to be frank, others should know better. I was and am worried this will permanently put people off, but it is what it is. Race Results P1 Standings GT Standings

Really looking forward to the Sebring race. Silverstone was a cracker, best race i've had in ages. But nevermind that for now, I best hop into the BTCC race since I haven't practiced yet
