Its All Over.. Gratz Eld

Dreams are shattered!!!
In a season where i hoped for the ultimate glory, i have to settle for second. In a way, i can be proud as i have been able to finish second. But thats not what everyone is looking for. The Planning was good. The Execution wasnt that good enough. Taking BML at the start proved to be a good decision. But the main objective was to build a lead in the first part of the season. I wasnt able to do that. Infact trailed by a not-so-small margin. I was able to cut down and was expecting for a final showdown. Even Eld was planning for an EXPENSIVE final race (which i too was planning :D). But that is not gonna happen now.

Just thinking of where i went wrong, i am coming with 2 probable cases.
First, Mebbe i should have planned for a couple of Drops.
Second, i shouldnt have missed the race last season.
And third, i shouldnt have relied on the server.
Whatever i put will be just plain excuses to convince my mind because past is past. And the winner always will be the deserved one.
Congratulations Eld.. You are unbeatable.

Thanks to all the friends who helped me in whatever way they can.. small things, big ways... And to all who believed in me and whom i have disappointed. You are there to cheer me and i hope you will be there with me in trouble times too.
Now i have a tough road ahead. I need to regroup and give it another shot pretty soon(hopefully).

Coming in from the commercially important town of Slough from the South East England, Mark alias BreadC (BreadCrums) is another old timer who is equally known as a forum spammer :). There is no better time to put his picture down here than now when he has won his first c1 race in his debut c1 season. Starting in Season 9 and serving 9 seasons in c2, he is now in the elite league and proved that in his home GP yesterday. Also known to be 'short-tempered', he is one nice guy if you know him more. His 'interests' are Computers, Football(Soccer) and Women(obvious.. huh ?). His football interest is evident from the fact that he is a better manager in Hattrick than in F1Time. But mebbe with this win, its gonna change.

Note: What many wont be knowing. IRL, BreadC doesnt like Bread Crums. Just that he needed an online nick for privacy when he first got into the Internet and he had Bread Crums all over his T-Shirt at that time.

A mixed season till now

This season was what i was planning for a long time.. But somehow pieces arent matching as i had hoped for.. I was planning for a good start to the season, but what i got was an Engine Explosion while leading in the first race. An up-and-down site made me miss one race. And suddenly i see myself trailing Eld by a big margin. Though its impossible to cut down, I am just trying my best to make it up there.. Add to it mistakes in a couple of races which costed me a few points. Another 5 races and i am trying to keep my hopes positive.
