Hi Foggy,
Yes the Nascar style system is more entertaining, but even that is far more developed than the average punter realizes, as I am sure you know!
Oh well at least you were thinking about the wheel change ahead of time, and looks like you nailed it anyway, even without the trick system!

I am Angus's Jack Man (and Kevin was on the gun) so I thank-you for the compliment. We practised very hard and knew both of our exact jobs and speeds and had rehersed multiple back-up plans for possible curve balls. I believe it payed off too. (Driver was happy and that is the main thing).

Yep as I said, you guys really nailed the wheel change, and that was quite obvious from the sidelines, well done!
Did the results from Race 2 stand?
