Well I had a very decent run going until I crashed..... at MAGGOTS perfect name for that turn. 
Artmann and Agro and Ayrton got away from me after that just like last time. I was able to pick artmann off after chasing him for a dozen laps or more! To get my crappy 6 pts again. The top 8 were all withing 1.2 secs or so. The times closer than real F1 which is always closer than the games but not this time....I couldn't believe Aug's 1:26,9 though, that was a level above what I would have thought possible. I was thinking pre race that maybe an upper 27 would be best from immortal. Damn I know I can get a top 4 here, it just has to be the right circumstances. I need to play the game more than once a week though, I've only been playing like twice-thee times per race, once to get refreshed and then the main event.

Talledega night tonight. 
I will have to watch it later then. I have a feeling I'm loosing time at Indy badly, but hopefully just a steady drive. Indy is kinda tough to pass, when your behind somebody best just to be patient. I haven't seen the slipstream on the oval section yet but I dont imagine the run you get is very good, especially given that solid titanium/concrete blast shield tire wall on the apex of turn 1. My guess is you can pass there but you have to be along side the car your passing before the braking zone. That barrier is a remnant of the PS1/2 days of gran turismo. In GT5 the sold concrete Princess diana style braking markers were too until they updated them to be movable.

Man I could have brought the fight to Nik there but I fiddled with my fuel on my 2nd stop thinking I had a 3rd stop coming up like on auto pilot then remembering I was only on 2; unusual race with decent wear rate. Forgot how much fuel the car needed and just guessed. Made it phew! Had to save a bit and Nik was able to get me there, but nonetheless I'm happy after being grassed at the start and loosing 5 secs on everyone.
Mega sorry about the slow start Agro. I got DC'd then I decided I had to take a quick #2 before the race thinking I'd miss Q. When I got back some others were having problems. I couldn't see Nik at first. Turns out he just needed to leave and re-enter it was not us but probably his connection.
Good race though, interesting driving with a 1 stop from Ayrton and 3 stops from some others to make a fully rounded race. If only I could have a perfect race with no problems whatsoever.... I think top 4 or 3 is on the cards.

I'd suggest WRS rules, 2 wheels on track at all times, and kerbs are track.
Also, sorry I did'nt make it last week.

The time trial boundaries is too generous around monza, you can put the entire car inside of the kerbs, so its difficult to judge if you're corner-cutting or not.
Thats why the WRS rules are good, tarmac inside the white lines and kerbs are track, no other surface is track (and not the yellow ones either, those are speedbumps)
