Event Recap
We had a fantastic turnout and an incredible night of racing for our first F1 Series event! Congratulations go to Maxime, who won first place overall while putting on a driving clinic with his shoes untied! Qualifying on the pole, he wasn't quite able to hold off Executioner in the first race, but came from WAY behind in the second race to tell us how it is. A hard-earned and well-deserved victory!
Executioner claimed a 1st and 5th place in the two events, came away with 2nd place overall, and was the only state-side driver willing to represent in the top 3. Oshawa rounded off the podium with a 6th and 3rd and a tie-broken 3rd overall, to create a maple-leaf majority among the trophy winners.
Psycho, with 3rd and 6th, and Otaku, with 5th and 4th, scored enough points to play spin-the-bottle with Oshawa, but their fastest lap times put them into the 4th and 5th overall spots respectively. FFK, our fearless leader, earned himself a 6th place overall with 4th and 7th place finishes, and Ridgeline was given the most-likely-to-come-back-next-week award after turning an 11th place finish into a 2nd place fluke. Johnsom put his kung-fu grip on 8th place which, surprisingly enough, resulted in an 8th place overall finish. Special guest driver mbobb did like Faust so that he could hammer out a 7th and 13th and an alarmingly fast 51.368. Are you serious?? Friend handed-in a 9th and 11th place finish for 10th overall, which surprised most of us and may entice him to go and buy a steering wheel setup. Shred looked like he was knocked out of contention in the first race but kept it tight in the second, ending with 13th and 10th for the 11th overall spot. Shadow finished 14th and 9th for 12th overall while fielding questions from his girlfriend and explaining to her what was going on. TZRacer claimed 12th as his lucky number, but we gave him 13th overall anyway. And, finally, Kracker threw-down a strong 10th place in the first race but DNFed (non-server issue) the second event for 14th overall.
Its worth mentioning that I watched the replays and saw at least two instances where one driver spun a second driver but did not stop and allow the other driver to recover his position... Please remember the Golden and Cardinal Rules, and please do not force the Stewards and Coordinators to step-in.
Thank you all, again, for coming out! We had an awesome night of racing, and look forward to seeing all of you and more next week! 👍👍
