SIM RACERS 4 LIFE - BT44 SEASON - ROUND 7 - SILVERSTONE 1975 - REPORTS

[1959nikos]

I was doing good, really good.

I was up to 13th place mid race with hopes of something even better if guys took pitstops and I had planned not.

I was doing no mistakes either, I was feeling very proud about it too.

Then Mel came close, I fought him for couple of laps but he passed me.

Then, I had the most stupid idea of the evening, to get in his slipstream at the straight before the chicane.

I tucked in, his slipstream sucked me in, and when time came to brake for the chicane, I just couldnt brake enough, and trying to avoid Mel I went straight and on a stupid barrier that left my back wheels off the ground and car completely immobile.

So much for clever ideas, btw Fergy came back, really glad to have him racing with us again.

Place your reports here people.
