I ran like crap. 🤬:banghead:

No practice on this track and the Vette just ate gas...onto the next one I hope. I can officially say I have a strong dislike for this track now.

Last week I ended 3rd in bronze div, But now I crashed three times and after adjusting And pitting lap 22 i puted rss and I was 0.300 away from taking the fast lap. I ended up 8th overtaking @Infineon on the main straight just before the end at the last lap. Sad because I loose 2 places from the grid but exciting race all around.

The form is active for any body who would like to file an ir @kpstormie I'd like to personally apologize on the thread I made a bunch of stupid moves during that race.


Also my lap times from earlier wouldve been invalid because I forgot to set bop on the game like a genius.

My result is the excat reason why I shouldn't have drank as much as I did at the wedding I was at eariler @BGCaligula I personally cant wait to see the points because it will be very close between us

Really close race 1st six laps. Decided to pit to get out of traffic and it worked out ok. Overall race pace was slower than I anticipated though. Got to say sorry to @Phlano099 for the bump at turn 1. I was applying crazy pressure and thought I went on the brakes in time (slipstream in mind), but still gave you a nudge.

Points will be interesting @Herimopp89

Great racing everyone :cheers:
 
What a messy debut I had, my Ford GT just kicked its supercharger like a rocket boost. First of all sorry to Robert whom I think we had a huge collision while qualifying for positions.

I think I gave way at the wrong time, and thus led to an unavoidable collision that kind of cost us a lot.

Definitely a tough track to master since I've had only a few laps worth of experience beforehand. Tried to keep the car running well and my strategy played out well until I accidentally touched the grass and put it in the wall.

Nevertheless it was pretty straightforward and clean, particularly I loved the lightning grid start but fell behind afterwards because I'm too slow there. Eventually hit within 4 seconds off fastest lap while managing fuel and tires. Not too shabby for a rookie.

I guess I was too nervous approaching the corners especially in a tight circuit. Hope the next could be better.

I love that track. Not sure if the guys around me were running a lower fuel setting but it was supper time for the Supra on the straightaways.

I drove the Supra at this track yesterday and did a personal best. It's a damn rocket in a straight line, granted you get it pointed where you want to go. Point and shoot!

Yep. I kept my head together and stayed cool. In fact most of my laptimes were consistent and gradually getting faster as I felt comfortable around the corners finding more closer to the limits.

I wad behind you for a few laps. You seemed pretty good to me. Your braking points were just a little early.

You should have seen my first season. I couldn't go around a turn without spinning the car.

Best advice i can give is to watch the replay and take note of the faster drivers braking points and driving lines. Then watch your own. You can learn a lot just by watching others.

Was good racing, I got a good start and held on as long as I could, I knew you, @aceboy127 and Roberts were quicker than I was, just kept to my strategy from the testing we did yesterday and was happy with P4 in the lobby...:cheers:

Yeah some of the corners I braked early since I couldn't accurately gauge the braking points, and I wanted to take a conservative approach to save some tires and fuel without harming the balance of the car.

For sure I'll watch the replay when I could and see if I could further improve my skills.
