hey guys..
qually went as I expected got lucky 13th spot - what could go wrong from there.. :o
race 1, I didn't have a real good race setup and/or talent but benefiting from some misfortunes of other's I managed a 11th place finish, with teammate Tim getting the 10th spot.. a good race! ;D
race 2, started from the 16TH! spot on the grid?? but - this actually helped cause all Get-out happened in lesmo 1 and I managed to benefit again and by lap 10 was running in 6th, with tim in 5th. coming out of lesmo 2 - I catch tim avoiding a car spinning - cool, he made it thru. just as I came thru the spun out car started to drift more to exactly were I was going to avoid him - toooooooooooooooooooo late - no - no - I did miss him, but not the 70 or so trees I went thru and the fence I jumped. then, I couldn't get back on the track surface.. I kept cussing in Italian, but the locals just laughed.. and that was that, I had to click out of the race. tim had a good finish, so he has to carry us again...
then, "i think" I made my biggest mistake, at least I "think" I did. while in the lobby I seen Edwin leave the game, with racecar being stored in the garage. I thought, oh heck, just go take a shower and I did the same thing. I believe, that took away any points for the second race, right? I should have stayed in the lobby and not leave the game cause I would have still been listed for points.. I am stating this to learn for myself and for others for the rest of the season..
thanks to paul, nikos, gorka and tim for all they did for this race!
