That was the most fun ARL race I’ve had to date. The whole race felt like a chess match. I didn’t really have a solid pit strategy to start. I spent the majority of the race just trying to stay close and stay on your pit strategy. The last 2 pit stops is when it got interesting. I contemplated whether or not to take enough fuel for end or just enough for the 6 lap stints we had been doing. I ended up getting 7 laps of fuel and coming out 4 seconds back. At first I regretted it but thought it could help me later if you pitted again. That was a big IF. I wasn’t sure if you were going to have a enough for the end or not. Since I knew I wasn’t going to make it I pitted a lap early in hopes that something would happen. I was relieved when I saw you hit pit lane again and you came out right at my door. Finally, that awesome shootout at the end was a ton of fun. Thanks for that race I look forward to more

I just wasn't expecting a change so late into the schedule. Kinda disheartening seeing how my car could win every drag race down the front stretch at Fugi so i was looking forward to LeMans and all those long long straights.
The rest of the schedule are all tracks I really really like and hey I can roll with the changes it's not like I don't have a win a SPA already
I'm not letting that happen..
Please don't take me seriously but those are fighting words.
It's all good. I actually remember something along those lines being discussed earlier in the year now that you said something. It's all good I was just curious.

Oh definitely a fun race man. I was wondering where those 4 seconds came from. I actually only took 5 laps worth of fuel at that stop, which meant my final stop took longer. My first stint was painful, had limited practice so I played it safe and qualified and started on RS. Some advise; don't do 450 miles in a Sauber Mercedes C9 at Nordschleife before jumping into at GT3 car. That 🤬 really screwed with me and yes, that's the distance I had to do just to get gold there in the Hamilton DLC lol. No shame in admitting it lmao.That was the most fun ARL race I’ve had to date.

Anyway, you deserved your step on the podium. Really good, consistent drive. I didn't even see you coming early on. I was so focused on trying to make the RS tires work in a futile attempt to stick with @SAMHAIN85. The next thing I knew, you pop out of nowhere. Well played @NASCARNATE91. Till next time
I never, ever want to see another Sauber Mercedes C9 ever again. Nordschleife I can forgive.

Looks like we got ourselves a good old fashioned duel.....
It's definitely a great battle we have going on in the Bronze Division. Completely new experience for me as this is my first attempt at a full Point Series Championship. I have much to learn still.
Crap
I'm in serious trouble then.

Awesome racing last night in lobby A.
I had a lot of fun in this race and you could tell everyone else was too. The room just had a different energy feeling to it than previous races have as good tight battles were going on everywhere. I started 5th and found myself racing against others almost all race long. Everyone was stretching their pitstops out about every 6 laps about a lap more than my cars front tires could handle but I wasn't about to jump out of that pit cycle. In the end I kept it on the track without any issues and finished 4th in our lobby.
Something I have to remember as I tend to forget is that I was racing others in lobby B so when I found myself with some cushion I backed off trying to save my tires and not make any mistakes right at the end but this takes away from my overall time. It's easy to get caught up in your lobby only. Luckily I was still able to come away with the overall best time for the Bronze Division but I need to remember I can't back off because there is some really strong competition right on my heels.

Congratulations to the category winners for the race!
It totally sucked for me, because of a stupid pit stop bug that prevented me from progressing any further. Hence I had to retire from the race on lap 6.
Huge bloody middle finger to PD for screwing up an otherwise decent race that contributed to my first DNF.

Your dnf is my fault for not reporting it to @Nick Cannella we will get that changed and atleast award last place points you did mention that happened and apologize for the oversight

Wait wait wait!!! Don't do that!
It's clearly not your fault but mine for triggering an unfortunate situation. Please leave the DNF as it is, as requested. Had I didn't made a bad mistake while in the pits, I would have finished the race error-free.
I appreciate the gesture, but this is a genuine human-induced mistake that should be accepted as a DNF. I prefer to keep last place points for real reasons such as disconnections.

The flow came like this on lap 6. Both me and @Nick Cannella were heading to the pits when I outbraked and accidentally kissed his bum, leading him to crash into the barriers with damage. I immediately let go and went to chat, but as I went in the pits I got stuck with a message text box and an invisible cursor. That effectively left me in the pits for almost 2 full minutes and thus necessitating a forced termination of the game.
I was gutted with the mistake, because it was my poor judgement plus incorrect procedures applied which led to this matter. Frankly, I'm considering camping for an IR to warn myself to stay out or be cautious.
