i was on the Server for hotlapping. didn´t realise that there is a race today. so i will stay for the race...

That was rather stupid. There was some chatting as a few had crashes at the start and they were talking about restarting. Just got cought out by that for a second and thought it was gonna restart and hit ESC, yeah race done after 5 corners...

Plz for the next time don't stay admin or don't chat, but the combo ruined a fun night for me after 2 min...

Yeah I was keeping on driving, but reading and driving not a good combo and got some suspension damage from it. I am just not lucky today. So much bad luck in one day it was unbelievable

After a poor start and and a bump from behind that made me spin and go offtrack i got back on the road and prepared myself to try and get back some positions.

My Mazda didn't let me down and listening to that engine screaming through those fast corners was awesome. Managed to get third place and stayed there until the end.

Thanks to all.

@Morne Du Plooy : I've check the chat log. Please no chatting during the race.

Just to make it clear: A restart will only be done incase of technical issues. An admin will do this if necessary.

well then I'd rather not race .. being taken out on the first corner, and the crash affecting 2 or more cars , should warrant a restart ! if a person crashes on his own terms, THEN I would understand a "no restart " policy. I was there in qualifying too ... the guy with connection issues, just jumps in before the start, and the race restarts for him... don't get it . anyway .
