I hit the exact cone I had warned others about in this thread. It's so f... stupid, I have to laugh about myself. Anyway, ride dead, but it was superb while it lasted, what a brilliant track!
I was just behind you Eckhart, and I couldn't help thinking about your previous post... "didn't he say there was a superman-cone on the left turn??", really, I didn't understand why that happened. But it was a great reminder, indeed, hehe...
was a great battle at the start with Eckhart and Fernando, managed to jump Fernando in the pits and most other places we made by people leaving, a 1 stopper was possible in the BMW for me.
Yeeeah, it was great! When I finally found the car on my hands, I could manage to battle for important positions with you guys, after all the dropped connections. It'd be possible to finish one position higher, if only I hadn't spun 3 times after my second pit. I knew I had new tires and could reach Chris, but it was touching the kerbs and spinning, so no way.
I left the server really disappointed with my race. Extreme tire wear and spins mainly, but I have to confess that the frame rate at this track was too low. First thing I noticed when I joined. And that could be the cause for some lost connections.
But as in car racing when engines break without warning, losing connection can happen to anyone, unfortunately. Happened to me on our test race. Let's hope the next race is on dry weather and everybody is able to finish!!!
One thing: what happened to Linus Broström? One lap he lost control after the killing cone and almost jumped over Chris Skyes hehehe... Couldn't understand.
Thanks to the admins once again for another great event, congratulations to Miguel Neto for the victory, and see you soon!
