well well well, what an adventure this was After our teams unbelievable misfortune wich caused us to miss the start at last years 24hours of the nurburgring, we were looking forward at having another go at the pinnacle of endurance racing, a 24hour race.
During our first le mans 2 seasons ago, our corvette had a disco during a driverswap, and last season when we ran 2 porsches, the car i was driving had a pc failure 5 orso hours in.... to say, we had abit of an axe to grind, would be an understatement
The odds seemed yet again against us from the start, Kevin would not be able to take part, and as i was trying to do some driverswaps with our new driver, the server crashed as i was loading onto it, and it would not allow me join the server anymore after that, timing me out every time... wich meant, i had to pack up my stuff, and get it over to Nickys and setup there.
We then lost Paul after only 3 stints from him, wich meant we had roughly 20 hours to get through with 3 drivers
But, we soldiered on and had a blast doing so!
We had a good setup, though i wasn't very comfortable with it in the porsche curves, they kicked my ass all day, so apoligies to anyone nearby as i was struggling through them most of the time!
But overall, we are very pleased with our race, yeah we had to fit a few nooses (we brought enough spares ) but that was usually at the end of a stint, so we didn't loose an insane amount of time fixing the various bits we left on the track during the 24 hours.
As such i'm extremely proud of my guys and what we achieved here, P7 in class and P14 overall is a solid result for us in such a high quality field. P7 might not sound glorious,but the experience is one of the highlights in my sim racing career as i'm sure it will be the same for the rest of my guys.
lsd racing would like to thank all teams with the right spirit for participating throughout another great season of RDLMS, also a very big thanks to the staff who put on this show for us have fun in, for their time and energy that goes into the work involved to give us such a wonderfull arena to get our freak on. We salute you!
Hopefully, wichever incarnation the series undergoes with the move to RF2, it will be in the same vein (Le Mans cars!) as the series we have come to know and love. I personally don't have Rf2 yet as i to am not convinced of the new buisnessmodels these days of "pay now, (maybe) get later", but i suppose,rdlms on rf2, would be a pritty good argument for buying the game afterall...
So, hopefully, we shall meet again in season 5!
