    Congrats, Chris!
    Give yourself some credit, you ran a fantastic race here. I think having that #2 driver chase you down actually helped keep you focused. And it worked! Look how you two dropped everyone else way behind. Nicely done!!

    • @chrisrogerssimracing
      @chrisrogerssimracing  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you, and yeah I think you’re right. I was really aware about the potential to make a mistake in those final couple of laps, after he’d dropped back. It’s easily done, a careless mistake when your guard drops. He definitely kept me on my toes!

  • @daviddavies3637

    Brilliant drive. I completely bottled it the first time I had pole, which was also at Oulton. You took that first corner like a pro - way better than I did when I was on pole earlier this week. That near off on the approach to island bend was actually planned, wasn't it? You were using ALL of the track and I think you gained a bit of time over P2. But, y'know, adding a bit of suspense by making out it was a mistake when it was in fact beautifully executed. I think I have you worked out. 😉
    Onwards and upwards from here.

    • @chrisrogerssimracing
      @chrisrogerssimracing  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Haha! Well I was favouring the inside entry into the hairpin, just to discourage the guy from trying a lunge. However that was a bit too close for comfort with the grass! In one of the races I did the other day (before the one with you) I got two tyres on the grass and couldn’t get off… ended up ploughing into the tyre stack and it was race over. So definitely had a panic when I thought I might do it again 🤣 but yeah, well pleased with how it went. The race practice the other day certainly helped.

      Yeah I absolutely agree with you there. I’ve had wins in iRacing and RaceRoom, but definitely felt a bigger sense of achievement with this ACC one. I think it’s because it’s such a specialist sim, with so many fast drivers in it. Makes the win that much harder to come by. I was buzzing after this one… more than any other race I’ve ever done!

    So pleased. Even more convinced now I’d take consistency over speed.

    • @chrisrogerssimracing
      @chrisrogerssimracing  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Absolutely. Consistency is definitely what won it for me here. Well, and the front row start too. I knew my race pace wouldn’t be the quickest. It was a fluke lap in qualifying… no idea how I went that quick, it was 0.4 quicker than any other lap I did. My ‘normal’ time would have put me down in P5 or P6. But keeping it smooth and steady all race long got the job done 😃 cheers Gavin

      Thank you Joe, in my earlier days I used to hate this track and avoid it wherever possible! But more recently I’ve had some cracking races here, and this one might just promote Oulton into ‘favourite circuit’ contention 🤣

      @chrisrogerssimracing I do like Oulton but I struggle in big cars like GTs around there. It's narrow and bumpy and will always be a Touring Car track for me. Sadly in sims we can't get our elbows out quite like the BTCC though 😂
