Thanks Boothy. Bad luck tonight, as you were quick off the jump. Nice recovery, though, as you hit last at some point.
The more I run AC, more I like it. Navigation is a little clunky, but at least the race is free of glitches and surprises. Great fun today, even with all the slide off's, still quite fun and very different from the usual style of race lobby.
Yea, sorry for the stop and starts. One was my fault needing more laps than 15 (Doh!), and then I think we had fuel / collision issues. Still, all worth it to me, since I could drive anything in this game.
Loved the car and track combo, Eric. And you were indeed on it again. No sub 1:20, though, so I'm not sure what Peter was smoking.
He is on vacation, after all. Perhaps he would have given Eric I fight, but these cars and the high speed called for some intense concentration. And I had a few lapses.
One was touching the wall (which cracked my wind-shied, and the other was a ding off the left guardrail into turn one. That was after I decided to keep my foot buried mowing the grass down the left side of the front-stretch. And that wasn't the only time I mowed grass. The fun part was that you *could* keep you foot planted and come out okay. Now that's what I call a game! That's pretty close to reality. It can go either way...disaster or recovery. lol.
Had some great back and forth battles with nealson during the first stint, and I was glad to see that the 200% fuel rate resulted in a mandatory pit, and not voluntary. I think Peter is right about the tires...although I could feel them wearing out a bit toward the end of lap 18 or so. It took forever to full the tank, so I just sat there, and came out 5th. Everyone else must have had some issues, because that second stint was not pretty. Got up to 4th and could not maintain the charge at the end. I thought I might have something for the leaders, but I ended up off the track a few times. Great fun, all the same, and can't wait for Brands.
