Dont try to overdue it. remember, its two 40 min race so perhaps you can sit upright for one of the races and then try the controller. just take your time. the series will still be here
Rest assured I am approaching my recovery the right way, and this could be completely in line with where I am now. Yesterday worked out well so today I will add driving into the mix and see what that does. I am optimistic . . .
Do you mind me asking what happened?
Two weeks ago I had two surgeries to permanently fuse my lower back (S1 to L3). This will fix the mechanics of my lower back but may not address the omnipresent pain (I've been in pain for twelve years straight now). I am forced into this because of old injuries; I ruptured the disc at L3/L4 while training for a triathlon when I was 21, though I very, very strongly suspect the true cause was a car wreck 18 months earlier that almost sent me through the windshield and the disc only expressed this defect after repeated long-distance training sessions.
Between 2000 to 2003 I had two laminectomies which brought me to where I was prior to the surgery - no disc left period between S1/L5, almost no disc at L5/L4, and a severely damaged disc at L4/L3. Each laminectomy permanently damages the shock absorber capabilities which then causes the vertebrae to grind against each other, making the vertebrae lose mass (my L5 is about 2/3 the size it should be and was cocked at an odd angle). If I did not do this fusion it was almost guaranteed I'd end up paralyzed or effectively paralyzed, unable to use my legs. Having the mechanics fixed will also greatly increase the chance that non-invasive procedures (epidurals, physical therapy, etc.) will work on the pain.
I'm now on medical leave for 3-4 months from work while my vertebrae grow together, over the plastic spacers that replaced my discs and around the titanium screws and rods that now frame S1 to L3 (they use titanium because in addition to being super light and super strong bone will grow around/through it).

What is this? Color me intrigued . . .
Hello ladies and gentlemen, I just opened up a lobby for some practice miles. I want to break in the car all the way so the course is set to Sierra at the moment. Anyone interested in some practice laps to break down the oil join my lobby, it will be open all night . . .
Cars do not need a break-in period in GT6 like they did in 5.
