Thanks for the race everyone! I had fun in that one, even though I didn't place well. Got to try my first one stint and keep the drop off in lap times from getting too bad...it was still a quick run for me (even though I was MUCH quicker in our 'mock 1st stint'...haha).

Had some good battles with @AfraidRacer

Everyone's laps seem so much quicker than last season....maybe I'm just imagining that, but the overall race pace really felt quick this week.

See y'all next week!
 
Gutted by my performance, but happy to have survived Laguna Seca unlike the last time. Our #3 BRCCRT Aston Martin was definitely on pace for top honors, but the ol’ girl just didn’t quite have the driver to win. I believe I’m getting better with the track season after season. Laguna Seca’s just one of those track you can’t overdrive. My lack of balance with the car had me struggling in the latter half of the race, even down to me playing with the rear bias often. I finally lost it coming out of the corkscrew one lap and my pace just completely fell off from the front runners.

Again, I’m happy to have survived at least. On to the next round! :cool:
 
Btw @fullness here is a congratulatory beer for you

I was wandering what happened to you after the great opening lap battle we had with @Xradkins it was looking like to shape up to be a great race
Yeah I really don’t know. I guess I don’t quite have a handle of the track yet. I kept going purple in sector 1, but I couldn’t quite string the rest of the track together. I just fell flat on my face lol.

I'm not crazy...silver winner was 38 seconds faster this season. That's insane!! I got a podium here last season, beat my time this run by 26 seconds, and was in the back of the pack. That's ummmm.....yeah...lol
 
I haven't put much into practice as I was hoping due to time constraints from work, probably next track I may squeeze some practice in. Keyword being SOME

If I keep up these performances I'm gonna get fired from Lexus...Need to get back on my game for Maggiore and NOT have a Ferrari strategy(seriously, messed up my tire strategy at Laguna) Pit loss at Maggiore is about 5 seconds I believe?
