Race Recap
We had 3 very competitive and fun races this week in Flex. Race 1 started out with a battle for first between TX, Dolph, and Martin. All 3 got their chance to lead the race with a position change on almost every lap. Very clean and close racing the entire race with all 3 of them finishing less than a second apart. 👍 Positions 4 and 5 were also just as close and exciting. This time it was RacingOtaku and Psycho-Tuber battling it out. They managed to finish just under .2 seconds apart. 👍 Race 2 was just as exciting as race 1 in many aspects. There were too many little battles throughout the race to list but 3rd place thru 6th place all finished within a 9 second window. This was Friend-29’s final race of the night having enough of his new wheel. He did a great job for the majority of the night 👍 and I think we can all remember what it was like the first time we put the controller down and got behind the wheel.
Race 2 also saw Micantony join us for some fun(you missed a great 1st race Mic). Race 3 was by far the most difficult race. Everyone seemed to have their moments(some more than others)with more spins and accidents then in the first 2 races put together. But honestly, is there a classier car to spin out in?
Martin and Dolph made their way thru the pack with Martin leading by about 3 to 4 seconds the majority of the race. On the second to last lap Martin took a small trip to the beach at the final turn giving Dolph a chance to catch up and make the last 2 laps extremely close finishing just 0.223 seconds behind. Great racing Turtles! 👍
