I fucking won! 🏆 First P1 in an iRacing official after years of trying, and in my favourite event. iRacing seeded me last. I qualified P3, took the lead at the end of the first third and that was it. This is the one I've wanted for years & I'm dining out on it forever. ROAR!🐯

24hr of Nurburgring this weekend. Only 6 GT4s signed up which is disappointing in itself, but then only 2 GT4 teams started the race. When will sim racers realise it is not ok to sign up for stuff and not turn up. And that GT4 racing is just as fun, if not more so, than GT3?

Saw someone on a stream the other day comment that they didn't like the rainbow on the back of our cars and that it 'ruined the livery'. I couldn't disagree more. I'm proud that we do this on every single team livery I produce. It's important and it's 110% staying.

Just for fun, what if Silk Cut made a return to top level motorsport advertising (never happening), along with Slack (possible?) purely because the colour is pretty similar. Absolutely love the look of the 963, and I think this really suits it.

What a time to be alive for a motorsport fan. In the last year I’ve raced with Jenson Button, Jimmer and Jardier amongst others, and now ‘W-Series podium driver’ Sarah Moore. Sim Grid’s GT Pro David Perel is my ‘boss’ and I make in-game content for ACC. It’s all amazing. 😍

@timdho Because I honestly didn't expect the GTP to be an idiot and send it at the exit there. If you cant get the move done before, you have to be patient and wait until the GT3 has cleared the corner and you know it's going to be a safe pass.

NASCARs are pretty fun to do. Usual rules do not apply. **ADDS TIGER** 🐯

🔥Check your #ACC update today for this new @BMWEsports Sim Racing livery. I was lucky enough to help recreate it ready to go into the game. Hope to see the @G2simracing guys use it sometime! 🏁
